Football The 2012 / 2013 Season Thread

are footballers really so stupid to think that posting abuse of the FA on twitter then deleting it an hour later is a good idea?

ok heat of the moment you might say it out loud but is the first thing you do to tweet about it? what an idiot

that would be a yes then....

I think the first thing I would do on becoming manager of a team would be ban the players from having twitter and impose a ludicrous across the board fine for anyone who broke the rule.

I am amazed Fergie hasn't done it already, United have been bitten a number of times and they should write a clause into any new contracts imo.

Pretty sick to curl this round the outside of a wal and in on the left side with a left foot;

 

[Billargh]

And it's against Sunderland which instantly rates this as a great goal.

Awesome photo in that article.

Jesus christ, Torres has now gone as far as deciding to not even bother shooting when clean through on goal. Sigh.

 

[eksdee]

Thank god for that.

 

[eksdee]

Edeeeeeeeeeeeeen!

 

[Vladamir]

Good to see him back on it after Mata has stolen the limelight the last few games

 

[megadave]

Lovely footwork from Oscar ;-)

 

[eksdee]

All three look on song, imagine if we had a proper striker in front of them!

 

[Vladamir]

Hopefully Lukaku will come back a little more polished for next season.

Or Roman will bring in Falcao

 

[eksdee]

Trolololol

 

[Himse]

falcao would be ridiculous, but torres isn't bad, just something isn't quite there. he's still an annoyance to any defence, even if he doesnt score loads of goals

 

[Aoami]

Replaced Torres as captain with Hazard last minute. #fantasyregrets

 

[eksdee]

Watching him week in week out can be incredibly frustrating though.

How Hazard didn't get a pen just now is absolutely beyond me. So many fouls not being given, seems like the ref has decided to be nice to Norwich because they're losing.

 

[eksdee]

Hazard scored too.

 

[Aoami]

Torres got given an assist for lamps goal though

 

[caLLous]

Yeah. Well. I dropped Hazard as captain in favour of Michu. Staying ahead of the pack, you know?

 

[eksdee]

Torres got given an assist for lamps goal though

Ahhh, makes so much sense.

 

[eksdee]

When is Iva going to start up front?

 

[Aoami]

Got Ivan in my team as well!

 

[eksdee]

I want to lick Oscar's willy

 

[Vladamir]

 

[caLLous]

Hah, QPR.

 

[Aoami]

Qpr and norwich are definitely worse than us, hope we dont end up in that 3rd relegation slot

 

[Vladamir]

Standard international break just as we get into some sort of form, less than ideal with Spurs away in a fortnights time but a nice rest for Mata again

 

[megadave]

and Terry
