itt liverpool not winning things; sandbox i love football

(/that it was that very paper which begot) xp

i am srsly a bit surprised ILF hasn't attracted a few [x] TIL I DIE types

Rooney'll still win the goal-of-the-year thing at that ballon d'or awards do (also nommed: Messi v Arsenal, Neymar v somebody)

sandbox tbf

rooney shinned it, neymar 4evs

Only three goals? Guess they changed up the format this year cos they didn't want any plucky Nordies sullying their glitzy awards

kaypeebs vs barca fav goal of recent times END OF

tru bruv tru

true or false: if clint dempsey played for a top 4 club he'd be on that list

asking because I srsly don't understand how it is composed

"TILL I DIE END OF"
About 2,790 results (0.38 seconds)

im a little surprised someone better than fulham hasn't bought dempsey cuz he is certainly a good & consistent player (although not top 100 good)

Depends what you mean by 'better than Fulham' but I can't think of that many clubs that would need him - United could use him arguably, maybe Everton or Villa or someone but they're kind of on the same level.

players on that list that are 'not top 100 good' maybe number 25

there are probably like 50 clubs better than fulham

Arsenal obv

cska moscow

rennes

bunyodkor

huddersfield iirc

dempsey improves everton and villa unquestionably, not spurs, prob not lfc, arsenal v prob, chelsea v prob, united prob, citeh unquestionably

Jol out

Sir Alex Ferguson attempted to deflect such talk away from his players, although he did concede they would have to deal with the shattering disappointment of eviction from the tournament he rates higher than any other. And Evra, while insisting he retained faith in his team-mates, accepted they need to work out whether, personally, they have done enough.

"We have to be honest and say we haven't been professional from the beginning of this competition," said the France defender. "I don't know why. Maybe one or two of us have to look in the mirror and say we can do a lot better than we have done. Everyone. And I am the first."

dempsey >>> pienaar and the second string; improves spurs

deuce v lennon??

lennon has been really good this season, so i guess not

was talkin first team, available players tbh. Not sure pienaar and dempsey occupy same pitch space, but i'd have niko on left or behind a striker before dempsey

really? niko is kinda lame tbrr

kinda lame in that he can't really run, sure, but much more intelligent and technical player. better finisher and better passer than clint.

Don't really think that leaving the Fulham first team and going and sitting on another team's bench is what Nakh had in mind.

yeah i guess i could see him at villa or maybe a decent bundesliga side

just looked up info on krancjar cuz i forgot about him completely

Andy September 2, 2011 at 2:52 pm

If Krancjar was given a run in midfield, he would be far more effective than Modric. If he was paired with either Sandro or Huddlestone in the centre, it would be ideal. He scores far more goals than Modric, he provides more assists. He has a better range of passing than Modric and is more attack minded.

AKA doing a Pienaar

see, thing is, niko is actually a lot more effective than modric, ito goals certainly and killer balls in and around the opposition box too i'd imagine.

But luka threads everything together from the fullbacks to parker through the wings and into adebayor, and works so much harder off the ball

Niko should prob be playing to give bale a rest, i dunno is he in any way a player that would replicate modric's role in the centre.

LOL Hibees

today is a great day for watching scottish journalists shouting at cameras while trying not to fall over

And it's usually the booze that causes them to shout (anti-Catholic obscenities) and fall over

Yeah the only time Kranjcar was a straight replacement for Modric was back when we were playing Luka out on the left. He isn't anywhere near good enough to replace Modric in central midfield and if anyone should be playing there in his place it should be Rafa.

i love niko but wouldn't mind if spurs sold him actually. would prefer he go abroad, he could probably do well in italy right?

argh argh no no no no do not want

Why not? He's a good guy. Where's this story come from anyway? He's surely going nowhere, especially with Vidic done in.

Yeah, can't see that happening. He's more likely to retire at Utd

tbf it's a stupid rumor, but it's stuck around for a while. I first read it on someone's phone in a bar in Seattle after the Fire's defeat in the US Open Cup final like 2 months ago. the coach was sitting two tables over so we showed it to him and he said he had no idea where it came from. still, I wish it would go away.

"do not want" because big-salary old-timer defenders are huge wastes of time/money in this plucky upstart league of ours

oh i see the Guardian is reporting quotes from Vidic's agent that he's done his cruciate and will likely be out for the season. Yay.

id rather vidic was there, kids + shite at cb could render city champions by february

and i like vidic, probably the best cb in the world by average level in the last five years and rather subtler than his rep suggests

vidic out for the season, maybe they'll give Jones a consistent run there.

dalglish is descending into madness.

id rather vidic was there + shite at cb could render city champions by february

Of course, a player getting injured in Dec. and missing the rest of the season is no good. otm on 2nd point.
