Football The 2015/2016 Season Thread

[Embattle]

I just hope we don't get bashed hard tonight by PSG, it'll be about the best I reckon we can do with our weakened defence and PSGs easy league meaning they could rest quite a few players at the weekend.

 

[Raven]

4.0 to PSG

 

[Raven]

Also, erg. Best stream I can find is BT, Michael fucking Owen.

 

[Embattle]

Mikel is such a fucking muppet, gives the free kick then causes the deflection....typical.

 

[caLLous]

Then scores a goal.

 

[Embattle]

Yeah rather funny considering he never normally does, I guess an away goal is better than the home goal he gave them.

Also why in the modern game do so many players lack balls and try and turn when part of a wall.

 

[Embattle]

Bit of a weak one for Chelsea to concede.

Looking a little leggy in areas.

 

[Raven]

Top of the table, 8 points clear. Would have to do a Liverpool to throw it away now.

 

[Talivar]

Oh look Rooney injured for run up to Euros! No Worries he still auto front of line for strikers i bet lol

I was on the top floor of a building this week about five miles out of the city...the new Anfield stand looks like the wormhole machine from Contact on the horizon.
It'f frickin huge.

 

[Embattle]

I think in Man Us next game instead of a coach the team should arrive in a clown car.

 

[Raven]

Lolchester UTD?

Yeah, doesn't work, but they really are shit.

 

[Billargh]

Definitely watched the Porto v Dortmund match, much better.

 

[CorNokZ]

Gary is a mastermind! We're winning the Europa League!

 

[DaGaffer]

A cynical person might think the United players don't want to win the Europa League because it would mean Van Gaal might keep his job. A cynical person.

Either that or they're pissed off that they're missing Death in Paradise on Thursday nights.

 

[CorNokZ]

"Don't mind me, just scoring the winner against Manchester United"

Spoiler

Nah, they are just shit.

Most of them will be out the door the moment LVG is off, it is in their interest that he stays.

 

[Embattle]

I really detest Blatter - Fifa corruption: Sepp Blatter says 'you cannot buy a World Cup'

 

[caLLous]

Nah, they are just shit.

Nope. They have plenty of talented players that would walk into any team (Mata, Martial, Memphis, Blind, Rooney, Young, De Gea, Schneiderlin etc etc). Whether they're deliberately playing shit is another question but to call them shit players is just ridiculous. The problem (or the main problem) is the manager and his "tactics".

 

[Embattle]

I think the problem is much like ours was with Jose, although I would say one difference is most of us Chelsea Fans think very highly of him which I'm not sure many Man U fans can say about Van.

 

[Bodhi]

Whilst we will never know the whole story, I get the impression Jose fell out with 2 or 3 players max, whereas Van Gaal has fallen out with all of them.

 

[Raven]

Jose fell out with as many as were shagging the doc.

 

[soze]

It looks like Cesc has remembered he is actually a decent footballer now Jose is gone.

And what is up with Chelsea and the Zoro masks it seems like some there always has a broken face.

 

[Embattle]

Such lazy defending.

 

[soze]

Throwing coins at the players lets hope CCTV caught the knuckle draggers so they can get nice life time bans.

Cahill might end up with one as well.

 

[soze]

No attempt to play the ball it should be a penalty. He was looking for it but still a penalty.

 

[caLLous]

Phew, that's LvG's job safe then.

 

[Shagrat]

Phew, that's LvG's job safe then.

well at least Man Utd have found the level they need to play at weekly
