Term-X

No need to be pedantic about it, pretty obvious what I was getting at.

You don't speak for anyone, I thought we clarified this.

'There have been clubs before there were fans'?, 18th century club structures are not applicable here. Salomon Kalou's committment to the fans ended with his contract, this is Frank-fucking-Lampard.. those real world employee situations do not apply here. If those 'personal' reasons ($$$$$$$$$$) are in conjunction with this, then no.. fans have every right to express their opinions.

Wrong. His 'personal' life is private, that.. has nothing to do with us. Football decisions however are not, we 'the fans' created the concept itself and have every right to judge a person making decisions in the context of the football domain.

^ City players were asked NOT to smile, that pic of Lamps won't be used for Sky etc, his own smugness wasted the film. He was also seen grinning like a cheshire cat when he was out with Bleakley in manchester, and in training; knowing cameras were on him. It's not that I was under any illusion players only cared about money and nothing beyond that. No, but when a player reaches a certain status at a club, you'd think they'd protect that legacy for all it's worth.

The king is dead, long live the king.

Props, and yea.. I wanted to gain a bit of weight before, but that plan backfired when it all went to my belly instead of arms, lmao. Will continue the high calorie intake during training though.

I ate every 3 hours basically, wasn't even being that precise with the calorie counting either, and it was a little bit over a month actually. What do you mean by 'he's a noob now'? lmao, his videos are good, everything is explained in simple terms. Props for the links, will have a look at those channels.

^ This guy is built like a tank.

Upped my calories and gained almost 2 stone in a month (146lbs to 168lbs). The downside is that it hasn't been evenly distributed body-wise, got a bit of a belly now lmao; due to this.. my arms are still pretty skinny, despite the gains. Plan to have my first gym session tomorrow, no real goals.. just wanna get to grip with the weights. This guys channel is pretty good..

Ivanovic is like the forgotten man atm, why do we need a high price CB when he's on the bench.

Those Puma skin tight shirts look awful

That City defense looks average without Kompany.

Remember when Mourinho took part in Soccer aid and we were all posting videos of that tackle, and when he peeked his head through the door on the england team. Nobody posted the changing room pre-match talk, so here it is..

Not in the moment no, not on the pitch with all that adrenaline from winning. He also hired private security before the game for his family. Mourinho didn't attend Inter's bus parade before leaving for Real too, unless he also received death threats from Inter fans. There isn't really a discussion here, since Mourinho himself has explained to you the reasons why he restricts his celebrations in the video.

^ "Player would have to take a large pay cut", he's 100% not going to Wolfsburg then.

It's difficult to find 'clinical' players in this game, conversion rate is everything, skill level alone isn't enough.. In my last game, the team had 13 chances and only scored 3 of them.

True, but that's ambition for you. Porto to Chelsea, Inter to Real, those are big steps.. and he wasn't going to let anyone hold him back. Thankfully, he's returned with grey hairs and is ready to settle down.

It's easy to see we're gonna have problems with HG players in the future. If only Josh had the mentality, because he'd be favoured over a foreign talent of similar potential.

That may explain why he didn't go back to Porto for the bus parade, but there was no reason to leave early on the night of the final. When Porto lifted the trophy, he was seen taking his medal off and leaving the pitch.

He left early during their trophy presentation and didn't attend the open top bus parade.

Every player we loan is one successful stint away from profit, and he's still only 21. We loaned Matic to Vitesse at age 22!.. now look.

The vivid description of how he confronted Moratti and told him what he needed fresh after defeat, was the highlight for me. Great philosophy on losing, explains why he never celebrated much when Porto won the CL.

^ I've never seen Lampard look that happy before.
