Football The 2014/2015 Season Thread

So lets see who people think are the top 3 overpaid underperforming players in the PL at the moment:

1. Anderson (Man Utd)
2. Emmanuel Adebayor (Tottenham Hotspur)
3. Mario Balotelli (Liverpool)

 

[Shagrat]

difficult to judge people as underperforming if they aren't even playing though isn't it?

if your including adebayor, what about soldado? he's had more gametime hasn't he, yet he's looked like he couldn't score in @Wij's Basement brothel.

balotelli was just a strange signing because it didnt fit Liverpools style of play at all.

If we're talking purely about wages (which we seem to be), Soldado is on a lot less than Adebayor. So um, he's doing alright or something. And as we all know, Soldado came from sunny Spain to play with Harry Kane.

Soldado, the Torres of the Thursday night cup.

Adebayor goes lazy as soon as he puts pen to paper. If Spurs want to get anything out of him they need to sell him to an MLS club and rent him back.

It's just me, a swing, the cat and a pair of marigolds.

Nice to see Chadwick on.

 

[Shagrat]

What a godawful man Utd performance that was

 

[Raven]

I would say it was also an excellent Cambridge performance. Dat keeper

Fantastic save tbh...

(Me in watching footie shocker)

 

[caLLous]

So, this is... like... a six, right?

 

[Raven]

1 wood at least.

 

[Lethul]

Tbh, balo has been awesome together with sturridge, which was the plan. Shit without him tho

 

[Raven]

Today we are talking FA cup.

 

[Moriath]

Ah well cream them at old Trafford. You. Know it's just a plan to get our games up this year to stop Chelsea complaining?

 

[georgie]

The Sun back page for tomorrow. Am I missing the pun or can they just not spell?

Brazil's $3 Billion World Cup Stadiums Are Turning Into White Elephants 6 Months Later

[Vladamir]

Look, an awesome goal from a Chelsea youngster who'll probably never see the inside of the first team dressing room!

Members of our second string really need to improve, just not good enough.

 

[caLLous]

Chelsea out, Spurs out, City out. Yikes.

 

[Shagrat]

wtf is happening in the FA Cup!!!! Madness!

 

[Embattle]

Indeed it is madness, I thought we might die in one of the cups but not this one or this way.

Some of our players really need to stop thinking they have a right to win just by being on the pitch.

 

[caLLous]

To be fair at least we went out against a PL team. Silver lining and all that.

 

[Lethul]

Suddenly uniteds result aint that bad

Suddenly uniteds result aint that bad

No shit but it certainly serves as a warning about the minnows in the FA Cup, something most PL players seem to forget.

 

[Scouse]

Top. Mate at work is a Bradford supporter. He got the coach to London for the match. Nice

 

[Embattle]

Not sure but has there been a more deadly weekend in the FA Cup?

 

[Moriath]

Man U. Arsenal or Liverpool for the cup this year?

 

[Embattle]

Looks like no shocks today, could be a good scrap by the remaining premier league teams for a cup.

 

[Embattle]

However it seems Arsenal want to make it more entertaining.
