Football The 2013 / 2014 Season Thread

How the fuck did wellbeck get mom!!! His control was abysmal, his only good touch was the header he scored from. Sometimes these commentatorz seem to be watching a different match to the rest of us.

Oh and itv can fuck off with their stupid swooshy noises every time a player's name came onto the screen, what do they think this is, the nfl??

It's ITV. I don't understand how they can be awarded matches. They may as well let CBBC characters do the commentary for all the insite you get from that pair of muppets. As for warm up and half time, I would rather do the washing up.

Capoue confirmed.

We're talking to Roma about Lamela... I love this transfer window!

Hull have signed Huddlestone (doesn't he look thrilled?) and taken Livermore on loan and it looks like Parker's on his way to QPR.

Just imagine if 'arry was still in charge, we'd probably have signed Carlton Cole or Heskey and that's it.

 

[Scouse]

Indeed, spent more money and did worse.

Spent more money since when? And have won more than them in the last ten years?

My reference is to EPL positions.

 

[Raven]

Well, Arsenal will beat everyone in the transfer league because they are a selling club. Liverpool aren't as bad as Villa for money spent vs silverware though 119m Nett in 10 years for a middle to relegation battle team is crazy.

Man Utd: David Moyes criticises Premier League fixture list

Moaning about the fixture list, he'll fit right in.

Be nice being able to watch games without having to stream them now. Might actually get a VM Box in my room now.

Who gives a fuck about that? "First is first, second is nowhere", as a great man once said.

Arsenal have been nowhere in the PL for ages, and spectacularly failed in all the other competitions they've been in.

Maybe if they'd spent a bit they'd have won something, eh?

 

[Embattle]

You've done better in cups admittedly but considering time and money spent it is hardly anything....I was going to say brag about but being Liverpool fans you tend to brag about anything from any decade.

As for Arsenal spending some money you aren't saying anything new, I've said it many times myself in fact but that won't change until there is a proper change at the club.

 

[megadave]

Sounds like Gustavo is going to wolfsburg instead arsenal. Who are they actually going to sign? I'm actually strangely worried about arsenal, they're miles behind Tottenham now.

 

[Scouse]

Moyes is identikit Fergie?

Or is Fergie directing what Moyes should say to the press...?

Either way "hardest start for 20 years" eh? Getting your excuses in early eh moysey?

I'd like this a million times if I could!

Also, Arsenal give up on triallist Sebastian Perez.

Also, Spurs will carry on spending, says Villas-Boas. Love this guy.

Oops - missed that one - been on hols

Spurs have signed some brown bloke

 

[Lethul]

Is he any good?

 

[Raven]

Better than any of Arsenals signings this season.

 

[soze]

Raven are you the only french teenager Wenger has not "signed" or something because you had a real hard on for Arsenal. Even the known spuds are not as bad as you.

Capoue is the one that could sting the most as we were in for him first but decided he cost too much. So if he plays a stormer this season we will look like chumps.

 

[Raven]

I'm only playing.

 

[Lethul]

Its not only Arsenal Raven is being an arse about (pun intended!). It's all teams below the top teams.
Kinda funny considering he is a Northampton fan or something, how is their transfer window going?

 

[Raven]

Not bad, we should be good enough to beat you at Anfield again

Edit, I only take the piss out of one big club anyway.

It's ok Wnger has spoken.

"There are 18 days to go, so that is a long time in the transfer market and we will be active.
"I cannot certify what the number [of players coming in will be] but we will be active until the end, that is for sure."

Unfortunately he has been saying we are active for the last 6 weeks too so its all bollocks.
