I'm finding the whole thing absolutely hilarious
To quote the song about him, I just can't seem to get enough of Luis Suarez.The only thing he could've done to troll Everton more would've been to pull out a wad of £20 notes and throw them at Moyes and the crowd when he scored. Sending off was ridiculous, but after all the titty decisions we've been on the receiving end of this season I find it hard to be sympathetic. Especially when half the Everton crowd leave early (leaving the derby early? really?) and the ones that stayed hurled coins at poor old sweet innocent Luis and all round nice guy Craig Bellamy.
Man thinking back on the history of the football thread, it's hilarious how it's changed. Remember when the entire thing was me for City, Pauw for Liverpool, Towns and Donal for Man Utd and about 10 ponces who "supported" Arsenal when they were playing top 4 football, and now they've all disappeared since Arsenal have reverted to their true form of being a bag of tit. All either left effoff for good or switched to the NFL thread like fairweather fan charliepanayi. Wonder if they'll start showing up again if Arsenal manage to squeak a 1-0 win over Norwich or something.
Yeah what the smurf Arsenal fans, stick by your team even throughout their midtable mediocrity. You didn't see me going anywhere throughout the Hodgson days.
Speaking of fairweather fans, with Liverpool v Man United on the horizon (and thus my baiting begins) it is of note that precisely 1 (one) of EoFF's United horde, Daniel F. Towns esq. posted in the thread after they took a tonking from us last time. If it happens again, I demand you all come out to pay tribute to the best football team in the history of everything. Aka Luis Suarez, 'cause we are a one man team. Which is nothing new really.
Arsenal have Arse in their very name how can you not support them I mean come on
if jay played for man united he would be in the england squad forever.
just sayin' like
Traditionally over the past few years the games at Anfield have been cagey affairs with one goal possibly deciding the fixture. Man U & Liverpool are playing more open this year and I think we could see a lot of goals next week, like a 3-2 or that, with all the makings of a classic.
United will win, but that goes without saying.![]()
I'm coining the phrase 'gloryhunter guilt'
there was a picture here
England Euro 2012 squad imho:
GK: Hart, Stockdale, Carson
DF: Richards, Kelly, Jones, Smalling, Shawcross, Taylor, Baines.... Ashley Cole
MF: Cleverley, Wilshere, Parker, Milner, Young, Johnson, Downing, Jarvis
FW: Welbeck, Rooney, Bent, Carroll.
It's not about BLOODING THE YOUTH necessarily - Parker, Downing, Young, etc. are proof of that - it's about getting rid of the mainstays of the side from the past few years. Two exceptions being Ashley Cole and Wayne Rooney simply because there's nobody else anywhere near good enough in their positions. We know Lampard, Terry, Stevie G et al aren't capable of winning anything. They're only deteroriating now, and if they couldn't win anything in their prime what hope do they have now? Give someone new a go. smurf it, who cares.
Capello will not do this and John Terry will start every game.
PS: Gary Cahill is not good at football. Why can nobody else see this? (says the man with him in his fantasy football team...)
PPS: smurf Theo Walcott and Aaron Lennon too. Seriously. I would rather have Oxlade-Chamberlain ffs.
No love for Scotty Sinclair? I watched the U21 World Cup or whatever it was a few months back and he was their best player. Not even biased.
EDIT: Possibly biased

Cahill is good at the parts of football that are relevant to his position. He's also got a pretty good head on his shoulders and is a good leader, from what I understand. I mean, not every central defender needs to be capable of running halfway up the pitch and pulling in assists from within the opposition box. Can't all be Phil Jones!![]()
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Yeah throw Sinclair and Sturridge in there actually.
Cahill reminds me of Matthew Upson. He's just an average Premiership defender. Nothing special and not worth £15m or however much is being touted. Also Phil Jones is not a very good Centre Back either precisely because of his rampaging runs. It's why United have conceded more shots than any other team this season. I think he'd make a phenomenal defensive midfielder though. It's funny that my Liverpool prediction is actually true of United. A rather poor defence made up for by a "smurf you, we'll score 10" attitude.
edit: Why are Manchester United allowing so many shots on their goal this season? | Zonal Marking they're not blaming Phil Jones BUT I AM. That'll teach you to turn down LFC, Phillip.
prediction for the game: 3-3.
(and by 3-3 I mean 4-3 ANDY CARROLL TO SCORE ALL FOUR)
To be fair, I agree with you that Jones' attacking movements are contributing to us conceding more shots than anyone else. Vidic and Rio would never go that far up pitch.
EDIT: Despite that, I still prefer an 8-2 scoreline to a 2-0.![]()
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
