Football The 2015/2016 Season Thread

[Job]

That is sooo sweet, I've been looking at the Welsh mountains all day from the beach...hope theres a flag on top tomorrow.

 

[CorNokZ]

Flappy Arm Cunt's Euros is ending now

 

[DaGaffer]

Fucking fantastic. I will let my inner Welshman out for the rest of this. Ronaldo v Bale; should be...interesting.

 

[dysfunction]

They played the complete opposite to how England played!
A pleasure to watch!

 

[caLLous]

Ben Davies has been immense though, they'll miss him in the Semis, as well as the boyband wannabe that is Ramsey.

 

[soze]

Absolutely brilliant display Welsh fans must be so over the moon right now.

 

[georgie]

As a Sheep Shagger this is all jolly exciting.

 

[Job]

So 9 of the squad were born in England including the three scorers.

The spin around scorer's only connection to Wales is his grandad.

 

[Calaen]

And? We should feel sad that the 9 that were born in England would not have even been in France if they'd declared for England, yet here they are two games on from dick heads that carry our own nations weight on their shoulders.

The English FA need to wake the fuck up, we need to stop pretending we have team spirit and actually work on getting the English players to engage with each other. The Welsh, Irish (North and South) and Scottish to name just a few would run through walls for each other to get a result. England go out with a wimper and blame it on pressure from the fans and media, yet they are quick to lap up the plaudits when we win a friendly against Germany. Unfortunately the biggest thing wrong with them is the people making the decisions, the fact that one of the guys who has a say on the next manager actually said he was not a football expert says everything about the FA.

David Gill and David Dein of Man Utd and Arsenal should be the people in charge, football through and through and they understand what is required from the ground up to make a team successful. But it'll never happen and more importantly neither will the English teams delusions that they are one of the best in the world.

 

[Himse]

England exactly like Belgium.

Ridiculous talent on paper, actually playing together as a team, questionable.

 

[Job]

Im sure the Belgian team are facing the same criticism back home.

 

[soze]

I really think Wenger could do a job for England. The work he did behind the scenes and getting the teams playing properly was great and he could really help with that side of things. I do think he would need a first team coach to really motivate the players though as I think that is his biggest weakness.

 

[Shagrat]

you need a coach who isn't afraid to tell the FA to fuck off, and who isn't afraid to pick a time based on merit. There were a number of players in this squad who seem to be purely picked on past performance/name/club they are at/because the FA told the manager to pick them

where's Brian Clough when you need him?

 

[CorNokZ]

Dortmund sells Mkhitaryan to United and wishes him good luck in the Europa League on their website

Lol

 

[Embattle]

Certainly splashing the cash.

 

[Lakih]

They need to splash some cash if they will ever get back to the SAF days. Next two seasons will be interesting for sure.
But as an avid ManU hater, I absolutely hate it

 

[Raven]

Mon' the fatherland.

 

[Embattle]

Real bad penalties.

 

[Raven]

Wankers gallery, some seriously twatish penalties.

 

[Lakih]

As per usual, a mix of really good and pretty horrible pens

 

[Moriath]

Zaza was subbed particularly to take a pen then he did that crappy dance around the ball.

 

[Job]

All the players who missed were in the premiership....just lol

 

[Raven]

I thought Pelle's was especially brilliant. You tell the keeper where you are going to put it, play the big man, then put it in row Z. What a clown.

 

[Shagrat]

weirdest run up to a penalty ive seen in ages

 

[Embattle]

You just had a feeling he was going to fluff once he did that run.

 

[caLLous]

I thought Pelle's was especially brilliant. You tell the keeper where you are going to put it, play the big man, then put it in row Z. What a clown.

If putting it in row z means trundling it tamely along the ground outside the post then yeah he did!

Was more like row a- than z

 

[Job]

Italy against Germany, they should have just gone straight to penalties and pointed the camera at the Italian fans for the inevitable head grasping displays of despair.

 

[CorNokZ]

In tears
