LVG has been hanging out with Ryan Giggs for too long.

Aguero is mint innit

Initially I read that as LVG had been hanging out of Ryan Giggs, a slightly different take on the story...

That 2nd City goal was something else. Great team goal.

Gary Lineker has clearly been drinking

"Gary Lineker backs Everton for title challenge next season - if they keep squad together"

Amazing...

Yep, The Emirates is a lovely looking stadium from the outside but wank in all ways inside

Give me the old Highbury any day

Good use of look. Have you been auditioning for a commentary position?

I watched Arsenal a few times (courtesy of some prawn sandwich tickets) before I went to the Middle East and I have to say that the 6000 travelling Schalke fans made more noise that the Emirates faithful.

naturally i always want to agree with the only other utd fan on here, but the slight deflection on the cross ruined it for me.

The Schalke fans, and Dortmund too when they came, made more noise than any other set of fans that have visited, way more than any British fans. But the orchestrated way they do it is a bit wanky. They have a few cheerleaders who spend the whole time with their backs to the game banging a drum and conducting the crowd. Of course the Germans have always been pretty good at organising mass public events.

The general noise made across any of the big british clubs is not that different, it's more about the "event" than the particular set of fans. Even at the little clubs that make such a big deal about the noise their fans make you've got to listen to some of the shit that it's made up of. Like Stoke barracking and booing Ramsey for having the temerity to get his leg broke, sometimes it's as much about the quality as the quantity.

You have a reputation, because you've earned it.

Yeah, cos that is what football chants are all about, the search for truth, it's not just an attempt to wind up the opposition. Do you also think that all Aberdeen fans fuck sheep?

Don't they?

.

Well that was a fun read. At least City are representing the UK in the Champions league with a bit of fight.

I think Wenger is wrong, I seem to remember the last few seasons Arsenal getting knocked out by the odd goal in the 2nd leg after being 3-0 down in the first or something. What happened to the "It's only half time "cliche. ..

As for Wiltshire, he needs to learn to run without pointing his feet inside. No wonder his ankles are fucked..

What do you call a sheep tied to a lamp post in Aberdeen?

A leisure centre.

Anyone else getting a tad bored of the Moronho to United saga?
Just hurry up and appointment the fucker so all the wankers can be in two places again. I don't like these free floating wankers.

Scared he'll end up at Liverpool?

Even Mourinho's got standards.

Despite spending 32million on Benteke you'd have to hope that even our owners aren't that stupid. Are they?

I would put money on it that Jose could get Benteke playing.

Andy Carroll? or was that the other owners..

Like he did with Diego Costa?

Of course they are, evidenced by them buying Liverpool in the first place.

they couldn't buy the royal family but they got the 2nd best, plenty of history class and culture

no pics of caroline ahem and ricky tomlinson please
