Frederick Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Is a World Cup even a World Cup without Jozy Altidore? Still, at least it opens up the Golden Boot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael* Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 We could do with an international lucky losers squad for Russia 2018, made up of talented players let down by inferior teammates. Pulisic, Bale, Robben, Vidal, Sanchez and Aubemeyang for starters. Big Jozy and Steven Fletcher as co-captains, obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkjk Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 ^^ I saw another video of him in an interview from the following day. The interviewer asked if he was feeling any better after 24 hours and he said he felt worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkjk Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Thoughts from today: - Manchester City may be too good - What a way to get a first win by Palace (Bolton got a win too, may not keep both from being relegated) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael* Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I'm no great lover of Man City and of course there's a heck of a long way to go this season, but we're probably witnessing some of the most entertaining football of the Premier League era from their current side, right up there with the best of Ferguson and Wenger's teams and possibly even better. Compare and contrast that with watching Jose's United, which at times is like being locked in solitary confinement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the change of narrative in terms of KDB. From 60 million pound failure to greatest midfielder in the premier league. I mean, he was laready the reigning Bundesliga player of the year when he arrived in England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederick Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Thank God the allure of live League 2 action prevented me from watching Dortmund's scintillating draw with APOEL. To Europa! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SympathysSilhouette Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 There is something quietly hilarious about Antonio Conté and Arsene Wenger now having the exact same amount of points in the Premier League. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael* Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 The possibilities are endless now for Everton. Giggsy, P-Nev, The Moyesiah, Big Steve, Pardiola, Wee Gordon or, er, Craig Shakespeare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frederick Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 There goes Simon. A good man who'll come again at this level but whichever way you want to proportion blame the numbers do tell a sorry tale. Thoughts, Michael? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problems at Sunderland obviously go far deeper than Grayson, but when you can't get a home win against the only side below you in the league, I suppose you can't really have many complaints about being shown the door. And while I'm not daft enough to expect the current squad to be pushing for promotion, staying comfortably clear of the bottom three certainly shouldn't be beyond them. In the long run though, it would seem that the club is going to need new ownership for anything to really change, preferably with the remit of rebuilding, writing off all the dead wood and getting a decent manager who has time to work.

Frederick Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Terry finally got injured and it's a bad one. Who could've foreseen such a tragedy befalling the lively youngster? Hands down, everyone Not Called Steve Bruce. Just as things were actually trucking along quite nicely, too. Samba and Elphick to the rescue? More chance of Moyes qualifying for Europe with his newly fashioned Anichebe/Carroll front line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can certainly set your watch to the kind of rinse and repeat cycle that middle order Premier League clubs get stuck in. They really love an 'exotic' flair manager, until they have a bit of a wobble and replace him with a dreary, result-grinding British manager. Of course, the problem West Ham now have is that the Moyesiah's ability to grind out results, regardless of what the likes of Leon Osman, Joleon Lescott and Danny Murphy would have us all believe, clearly deserted him after he left Everton.
