Sylvain Distin replying to some Liverpool fans who abused him.

[Madmax 9,219]

Firstly, never say "no offence" about Liverpool.. Offend them as much as you'd like

Does one even have to 'try' to offend Liverpool fans? Their state of being permanently outraged over something or the other is unlike I have ever seen among any group of people anywhere in any walk of life.

Underneath all that bluster they are the most insecure group of people around. The way they acted after Arsenal made a bid for Suarez was cringeworthy. Rodgers, FSG and the fans acted like a bunch of 5 year olds who got there sweets took off them.

Koeman unveiled as Southampton manager, his brother will be assistant.

Looking at so many players leaving Southampton, was wondering if we could farm or sell them few of our youngsters with a buy-back clause.

Piazon for Lallana?

That is rather farcical at Leeds.

The article fails to mention that 17 is traditionally an unlucky number in italy, so it's not some sort of idiosyncrasy from Cellino himself. It's like 13 over here, as silly as having unlucky numbers is. Madness, either way.

Watch them win the Championship just because of that.

Can't he sue the club for that?

Looks decent.

Lol

United have won the most titles so how are they the 'most successful team'? Probably added the 25 year old European Cups to the total.

It's a flat out lie. United have officially won the most trophies in England. Sad lot, these are.

Lol, the sad fuckers have been adding their League Cup and Europa League wins to make that claim :

Leagues : United 20 vs Liverpool 18

FA Cups : United 11 vs Liverpool 7

UCL/European Cup : United 3 vs Liverpool 5

"Cellino is so suspicious of the number 17 that he had the seats at his former club, Cagliari, taken out and replaced with 16B."

They're a disaster waiting to happen this season.

[LAB 1,030]

...and it's just badly illustrated really. If you're going for a most successful team claim don't put Steve in there!

Wenger on Alexis: “I find he has all the attributes of a modern striker, he can play on the flanks and through the middle. He gives you many opportunities and he can score goals.

“He works very hard, but it is very important for him now in the modern game and hopefully he can be a great success.”

Modern striker? You've signed a fucking right-wing Arsene, not a striker.

Arsenal going with the False 9 from now on?!

Cazorla - Alexis - Walcott

------------ Ozil -------------

----- Arteta - Ramsey ----
