Re: best Sperz squad I've ever seen

Who is saying £150k per week JD? Is there a link?

Re: best Sperz squad I've ever seen

Yes our squad pissed over theirs by 1pt. Since then they have invested 50 million and AW reverted to default and bought French players of African descent on the cheap. I used to have your confidence. Last year I was pretty accurate with the OG season predictions but I haven't done it this year as I ...

Re: SUMMER TRANSFERS - Deals, Rumours and Buy/Sell Wish List

Losing out on Gustavo is more annoying than any of our recruiting transfer negligence this summer. A quality player under £20m in a position we are very weak in and we decided to haggle? If this is true then it shows more than anything how this manager needs to be hounded and his legacy ridiculed. S...

Re: I CANT HANDLE ANOTHER YEAR OF WENGERS LIES

I dislike Wenger and have no respect for him anymore. His talk in Japan about motivation and the story about losing his way while jogging shows how delusional he is. In footballing terms, he catches a taxi everytime he is unable to close a deal and convince existing players to stay or quality player...

Re: Is this the worst league in 25 years

I live in mancland SteveO and you are right that their midfield is heavily criticised by fans. It still took a dubious red for Real to knock them out of the CL with Mourinho acknowledging they were the better side over 2 legs. For your mate's dad to say they haven't a prayer in the CL seems harsh. O...

Re: Champions League Qualifying Round 2013

I agree that the premiership standard has dropped from 5-6 years ago when one season, the only teams to knock a premier league team out of the CL was another team from the EPL. That drop from a huge high is a far cry from it being the worst league in living memory. If we were fans of Serie A then I ...

Re: Champions League Qualifying Round 2013

Absolute nonsense Augie. There is a strength in depth to the premiership now that hasn't been there in your living memory. I guess you are around 40 so I hope your memory goes beyond 25 years. Our league has many world class players and you have been spoilt if you are going to dismiss the quality of...

Re: Champions League Qualifying Round 2013

Like I said g88ner, I agree with the sentiment that we did not compete. 16pts is what it is though. I wouldn't agree that last year's league was the worst in living memory. That's just a gross exaggeration. Manure and 2 oligarch teams who have spent a fortune. We have an emerging Spuds with an 80m p...

Re: Champions League Qualifying Round 2013

It was 16 points behind manure Augie, not 20+.

I agree with the sentiment, just not the facts :)

Re: SUMMER TRANSFERS - Deals, Rumours and Buy/Sell Wish List

Sorry if this has already been posted but the victim forums seem to think Suarez release clause is for clubs who have qualified for the CL. We haven't qualified yet which is why Ayre and co have rejected our bid out of hand. That would explain why Wenger is prepared to wait. As Suarez is banned for ...

Re: Do you want Luis Suarez?

Madrid's mouthpiece Marca are saying RM won't sign Suarez "even if he begged".
I bet AW is scared now, we might have a free run.

Re: Do you want Luis Suarez?

We broke the British record JD, previously set for Andy Cole. It only lasted for a week until the brummie dogger went to the Victims. (I just double checked with Wiki :wink: ) On another point, I remember you correcting me that I couldn't blame Gazidis for transfer negotiations as he doesn't get inv...

Re: Do you want Luis Suarez?

I can't see why such an ineffectual clause would be inserted. It is normal practice for clubs to inform players when bids have been received. The scousers are playing victims again. It has triggered talks and it will trigger a move until Real step in. Liverpool first said it only means they have to ...

Re: SUMMER TRANSFERS - Deals, Rumours and Buy/Sell Wish List

It may be goal.com but even a broken clock is right twice a day. The tone of the article feels instinctively right. It's not just supported by this transfer window but by evidence from previous (Alonso, Schwarzer etc). Rather than incisive moves in the transfer market we appear to negotiate with all...
