Football The 2010/2011 Season Thread

[Marc]

He's currently on business in London, so he's supporting Arsenal for the day.

must spread rep

 

[gohan]

nicky butt on paul scholes


He was always a dirty little git. He was always kicking people and sliding in 10 minutes late but he always had a cheeky side to him so I do not think anyone speaks badly about him.



made me lol

BBC Sport - Peterborough's Craig Mackail-Smith eyes Premier League

Wouldn't cut it imho. But maybe a good snatch for any of the promoted teams.

 

[Everz]

Also quite glad we didn't bother with Mancienne, he became a liability in the end and will never ever ever be a top centre back. A Defensive mid and thats your lot.

 

[Vladamir]

Guess that's why he's off to Germany then. Good to see Arnesen using his scouting skills to just nick his old recruits

 

[Everz]

It's a shame, he's been with us three seasons and his progress has gone up and down. After the second season I was happy as that he resigned as he looked a confident defensive mid and was playing superbly, thought he'd be in with a shout at Chelsea. But this season, injuries have hampered him and hes become shockingly error prone (see Blackburn goals), do wish him all the best though, will do someone a good defensive mid or even a left back, but will never be a centre back.

Only thing is that Mick must pull his finger out of his arse and sign a better pair of centre backs, Craddock can't keep doing heroics forever. The news that signing of Roger Johnson is close is quality, aswell as the rumour of us getting Gardner or Noble respectively to play alongside O'Hara. A better defensive mid maybe unless Henry recaptures his form and cuts out the silly behavior. A left-back would be a welcome treat also.

Other then that I severly hope our strong youth is given a shot or sent to a Championship side, Mendez-Laing played a massive part in getting 'boro promoted and could make the step-up to Prem, same as Johnny Gorman. This year though.. give Zeli the run out in the League Cup.. unleash the Serb!

Givf next season already :<.

Could Wilshere be in trouble for this?

Jack Wilshere: Arsenal should harass refs like Manchester United - ESPN Soccernet

"It's no use just Robin van Persie going because it looks like it's just him having a go at the ref. If we all get round him..." Wilshere said.

"You just see the other teams do it and you think 'we need to do it as well'. Man United are the best at it. They get round the referee. We have to be more of a team and be more aggressive and show more authority."

That looks a little bit like he is advocating referee harrasment.

 

[Vladamir]

No doubt he'll clarify his statements as referring to the game rather than the ref, depends if the FA see it that way!

 

[Cerb]

I heard today that Carrick didn't have a single Goal or Assist all of this season? :O Amazing if true.

 

[Vladamir]

Lol @ this, what a noob - he's been banned for what, a few days?

Warner reported over ban | Sky Sports | Football | Internationals | News

 

[megadave]

it would be amazing if he was a good player, as it is it's quite expected

 

[Lethul]

Hahaha. Must spread rep. ;<

same

 

[Cerb]

I meant amazingly bad...but yeah... I wonder how Dori will justify that?

He scored against Schalke....

 

[Lethul]

Ugh, RAWKs gossip section is reporting a fee for Barton has been agreed :S

I guess he is decent, but he just looks so unfit!

 

[Cerb]

He scored against Schalke....

Hmmm maybe it was in the league. Tbh I'm not feeling like looking it up. If I was wrong my mistake.

 

[Ch3tan]

Just checked this, no league goals, no league assists. Van der Sar got more assists than Carrick this season!!

What a fucking dick - although it cold just be a clever plan, this actually undermines Blatter even more.

 

[eksdee]

So chuffed - my 'zine, Real Men: The Lost Art of the Football 'Tache, got a mention on The Football Ramble's last episode of the season. If you appreciate hairy-lipped footballers and would like to buy a copy you can do so here: Shop

Re-sign Mascherano and you'll have a trio of cnuts in your central midfield

 

[Ch3tan]

Scousers were always going to sign him, for his link up and crosses for Carroll.

 

[cHodAX]

Back in his home town, just more opportunities for him to get into trouble really, he comes from a rough area and hasn't broken all ties. Not a good choice for him unless he really has reformed.

 

[Marc]

Ive been scratching my balls, erm brain (could tell you a funny story about my balls but dont trust you fuckers saying something to our lass on FB), about who we should sign to strengthen our side next season. Im thinking realistic targets, obviously someone like Ronaldo would strengthen us, but it would never happen. Cant think of any! Would like to sign a central defender, but im fucked if i can think of any.

 

[Vladamir]

Giuseppi Rossi has been rumoured recently I think, not sure what he offers over Villa though, maybe a bit more finishing than flair?
