The English Football Thread

[Special Juan 27,150]

Great finish by Welbeck, really good. Still an aimless cunt though.

Had a feeling they would win despite all the pressure from Swansea etc.

As for us, our guard needs to be up from the off, let's not hope about united, the cat is still dangerous.

one of the best things about football is rivalry. It's when you make fun of your coworkers or mates at school on Monday because your team raped theirs, or won 1x0 with a pen at 95'. Or when you make fun of them because their team lost to nobodies. Or when you're in a bad mood because your rival won't lose one match.

You take that away from football and all left is plastic... plastic sport, plastic fans...

Hating your rivals almost as much as you love your team really adds to the thrill.

Only the casual football fan (or plastic as others call) don't care about those things. It's part of the magic of this amazing thing called footie!

Couldn't put it any better myself. Kudos!

Only casual fans will say something like oh I love Chelsea and also Manure, Hazard is so cute and Van Persie is so yum stuff like that.

As a hardcore Chelsea fan, I admit Van Persie is very good, but admire him? Not a fucking chance, hate him to guts.

Lol we have the same saying in Arabic!

Sayings on animals are quite common . Maybe also cos both languages are from Asia.

[NishC300 1,865]

I can't believe how Utd get away with being utterly utterly average every single game. Hate them.

Luck. All the power of good fortune.

I agree. It is banter, it is why you have fans. This is a chelsea forum. Not a neutral one, nor is Redcafe.

Put the banter in perspective, you incredibly moral ones :-) There is no racism, antisemitism, homophobic stuff going on. Banter.

Ps! No need to qualify some as 'bad' football fans, JayC.

Does the baseball gif have much relevance to the post?

[NishC300 1,865]

Yea

Wellbeck just chipped Vorm

Our boy chipped class( Casillas) and pure shit(Valdes)

Nobody could have stopped those. Nobody.

Ramires... raping Spanish NT goalies since 2012

edit:

just realized this is my 2000th post. That was an unintentionally good one

Hope he finds his place back in the Brazil NT..He's my fav Brazilian player

Kinda sad seeing him being left out at Confed

[Milan 17,838]

Sagna is really luck to be still alive, this is just ugly

you guys know why he's left out?

BECAUSE HE HAD DINNER WITH HIS WIFE

There was some sort of confusion and he didn't present himself to the team and had dinner with his wife instead, but the next day in the morning he was there.

He said if he had known he should be there the previous night he would have. Nobody accepted his apologies.

Ridiculous

Yes. It indicates a home run. Much like that reply i was referring to.

[Hutcho 8,443]

You know that fella who was better than Hazard Mata Oscar etc...

I think his name was kagawa or something...

Well he couldn't even get a minute today and even 39 year old ryan giggs was picked over him...

If that was Fergie, he would have filed an FIR for attempted murder by now.

Has more technical ability than Lukaku =)

Every time you criticize a Belgian player, some Belgian quotes you, it's getting to the point that it's ridicilous

90% of you only joined when we signed hazard.

Read my post more carefully and you'll find I don't dislike rivalries at all. Healthy ones.

you're right, there was the injury thing, he didn't present himself. All I know is that Marin said it was because he had dinner with his wife when he publicly apologized saying he wouldn't be having dinner with his wife if he were supposed to be with the team

Whatever, they're being mean to him. It's ridic

So what Kojo. If find that remark crap. People fall for teams at any given time in their life. Some because of birth, some a player like Osgood, some Zola, some Lampard and Terry, new ones Hazard. Some had their aunty at games. If you care, you care.

Why do we 'quote'. well, most of us saw belgian players play much more than you guys. I remember our Hazard stuff when we first met as well. You got to know him better now, Kojo?

It is not always bias and patriotism, mate. A lot of us saw a shitload more of their games. Hence the need to 'reply'.
