i hear he's really good at crossing the ball xD

lol it is one thing the fella can't do to be honest.

 

[cHodAX]

To be fair to the lad though he has pace to burn and can beat a man with tricks, if United get his head and heart focused on what he needs to learn then we have got ourselves a good player. If not then he won't end up costing us anywhere near £7 million anyway, alot of that money depends on him becoming a success.

haha that game i watched every cross went in exactly the same place xD he shows potential but he really needs to sort that out

They could by a replacement for Poulsen with that cash, my great uncle Phil is available for that kind of money and he can certainly do more of a job than Poulsen as long as someone can help pick him up when he falls off his zimmer frame.

Spanish papers reporting that United have pretty much signined De Gea, but the 2 clubs cant agree on wether he will come in Jan or summer. Transfer fee agreed and player has agreed to terms. Quality signing that. The only player in the world id want to replace Valdes.

Edit: Before Raven pipes up about football league 2 keepers being better than La Liga keepers, I meant, in the sense of a long term replacement.

If this is true, along with Wilkins being sacked, I'm worried Carlo could walk at some point with the decisions going over his head

Spanish papers reporting that United have pretty much signined De Gea, .

The rumour mill is certainly buzzing, would be a good replacement - but like most keepers we've had since Schemeical, he'll have to prove him self quickly or be yet another flop.

Regarding Ballack though, I don't think he or Carlo can be surprised. Everyone knew the financial situation, those players had to go to ensure you become a self-sufficient club again.

a couple of my mates at uni were in madrid last year and had season tickets for atleti. they cant shut up about how good de gea is.

also, they paid like 250 euros for their tickets which included cup and european games. insane compared to our prices.

 

[Ch3tan]

Yep, fuck premier league prices.

I've got no chance of affording regular tickets to United, not plus the travel costs. London premier league clubs are just as bad. It's ridiculous what my cousins pay for two season tickets to the Emirates.

Me and another cousin may get Palace season tickets next season for our fix of live footy.

 

[Aph3x]

David De Gea will be a top keeper, he's more than half way there with Athletico, he's fricken awesome. Quite funny too as Athletico spent oodles on a young keeper the same year De Gea broke into their first team and could have saved them a small fortune.

 

[Ch3tan]

Wow - the press certainly can smell blood at Chelski, can't remember the last time so many papers had different angles of attack:

Michael Emenalo 'will not coach Chelsea first team', Carlo Ancelotti insists after controversial switch - Telegraph

I'm not sure how accurate those quotes are, and I understood that Emenalo could not coach yet because he needed to update his badges first... but nice spin there to make it a very annoying story for Chelsea right now.

 

[Vladamir]

Yeah, I saw Emenalo wasn't quite 'qualified' (for want of a better phrase) to coach the first team, so it seems a little peculiar to promote him to such a role, but equally the press have obviously taken this story and run with it.

I just want to know why Super Ray was sacked

 

[leviathane]

2-0 c'mon arsenal. If chelsea lose top of the league we go

yawn


De Gea is a top Goalkeeper yes but this could ruin him if he moves to Man Utd.

 

[Vladamir]

Woops Fabregas!

 

[leviathane]

ffs 2-0 up. GJ guys good job.

 

[Ch3tan]

Lol, what was cesc thinking

 

[Vladamir]

Wow

 

[Ch3tan]

Lol

 

[leviathane]

man i love supporting chokers.

 

[megadave]

wow

must be arsenals most humiliating defeat in decades

 

[JingleBells]

What a game, I'd love to sit in Harry Redknapp's half-time team talks, one day we may even turn up for the first half!

Fabregas the key man today, missed a glorious chance to make it 3-0 then handles the ball in the box, cheers Cesc!

 

[Ch3tan]

I've got Cesc, Bale, VdV and Varney all in my starting lineup in fantasy league today, good stuff!

 

[ECA]

This is a huge 6 point game for blackpool. Super important they win.

 

[Ch3tan]

Go go the blue noses haha !

 

[JingleBells]

 

[Turamber]

Well played Spurs, excellent win. Arsenal were so much better in the first half they should have walked the second half ... but it seems when they think it will be easy their performance level drops off.

 

[leviathane]

need birmingham to do us a favour n get a big win against chelski today.

 

[megadave]

feels like it wont be our day, fosters already made about 7 saves and we've hit the bar, doesnt feel like it will come off today
