Re: Cardiff City away match fred
Xhaka and Ozil absolute shit today. Both of them strolling around. Ramsey is putting some effort in but his passing is woeful. Bellerin's positioning is terrible, though he's getting no cover from anybody. Laca looks sharp and Sideshow is doing OK. I don't think that Bellend's ball skills are up to ...

That would've been my selection as well.
I'm glad to see Laca and PEA start.

Re: Unai Emery
I think we can see how Emery wants the team to attack. Play from the back, which creates space around the pitch. Get the ball forward before the oppposition is back in position (unlike the snail-like build-up under AW). Pass forward, not sideways. Get the ball wide, cross early and pull the crosses ...

Re: French goalscorers in the premier league
I got 13 in the time limit and 1 after it. Most of them were ours.
Who'd've thought Cygan wasn't up there?

Re: West Ham -HOME - Sat. Aug 25th 3PM
3 points yes but im struggling to see wtf Dick is trying to implement,we are right now looking no better and possibly worse than wengers Arsenal,a decent team would have smashed us with all the space we gave them,the defence is shambolic,why is xhaka still a first choice?,why is bellerin still Rb? ...

Re: Greatest Foreign Player in PL History
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-CcNuOLXBM Shearer thinks Aguero is the greatest import to come to the PL but for me he's still well behind Henry and Ronaldo. I don't think he's ever had a season as good as RvP or Suarez had during their last seasons for us and Liverpool respectively. Craig Bellam...

Re: OZIL No shows, Injury, illness ??
in 2nd half it took him 17 whole minutes before he even touched the ball. What hobbies do you have buddy ? Do you like the cinema, or do you like going to the gym ? Do you like going for a few pints ? Regardless of the choices, can I suggest that you go get a girlfriend/hooker/blow up doll, and f.u...

Re: OZIL No shows, Injury, illness ??
I'd start Ozil against West Ham but if we get another shit performance from him after an hour then I hope Emery has the balls to bench him for the league and have him be primarily a Europa League player. For all his defensive faults it's almost guaranteed Mkhitaryan will produce the end product req...

Re: Unai Emery
To paraphrase Strummer/Jones, I think he is saying to the players, 'right, let's give 'em enough rope'. These players need to adapt to his system, he is giving the chance for them to do that. You can't do it? Then in time - maybe very short time - you will be out. Listening to one of the awful Nevi...

Re: Grumpy Git - things that "literally" get on my tit
My daughter will be starting the final year of her degree in September. Her timetable has just been released and she's got 7 contact hours a week. 30 weeks x 7 hours = 210 hours (a.k.a. 5 weeks work for most of us), which is costing her 9,250 quid, or 44 per hour. She could hire her own private tuto...

Re: All or nothing - ManCity documentary
I remember years ago Citeh hosting a fly-on-the-wall doc when John Bond took over from Malcolm Allison.
It'd be interesting to watch the episodes alternately.

Re: Moaning Maureen
Whether he stays or goes they're fucked because there is a dearth of available top class managers at the moment and as we're seeing with Emery, they'll struggle regardless as a new manager will have to sort out their shit squad and massive egos and that won't be an easy job for whomever replaces hi...

Re: Unai Emery
The anti-Emery reactions above are way OTT, but I share some of the sentiment. I've seen some positive signs; our attacking play is quicker and a bit more varied and we seem a bit more combatitive, but my heart sank when I saw the teamsheet. Xhaka, Miki and Bellend were useless last week, yet they s...

Re: The Political Correctness Bullshit Thread
I love Ian Wright, one of my all-time heroes, but to state that criticism of Sterling is based on racism, without even attempting to justify it is ridiculous. Wrighty's not the sharpest tool in the box, so I can partially forgice him, but now Lord Herman Ouseley, 'anti-racism' campaigner, has said t...
