He and his agent got paid.. your competition didn't though. If you sell him at some point, they'll get a few percent of the transfer fee thanks to training him while he was under 23 though.

Can someone with Photoshop ad "Cripes!" to this when he says it. I wish gifcam was a little better quality.. surely someone out there can recreate it with a bit better capture quality. :(

Did you? I thought you had one when you won the League? Wasn't the Cup win celebrated at the Etihad.

Either way, yes, I can believe it. In that sense both you and they are quite similar. Only now that you guys will start to win things more regularly you'll begin to appreciate what achievements really should be celebrated with aplomb.

Hopefully Moyes never takes us so low. Hopefully.

I'm saying that we should consider the wider context and circumstances of the match before jumping to "derp Arsenal small club mentality celebrating getting to the final.... Ozil flop!11!!1!"

Does anyone know how clubs deal with contagious illnesses? Like, if a player sneezes at training, does he get put into a kind of quarantine and told to train on his own while they wait and see if it develops into flu, and get him checked out by the physio?

Eh, the balance between using a horrible phrase or term jokingly in a group or forum of friends and what others may see as flat out offensive is always tough to police. Don't envy the mods at all.

If I call a LGBT person I barely know a veado I'd get trollied (if they knew what it meant), but in here in this context it's cool i guess if the person understands where it's coming from.

All bout context innit

/Banning words is a slippery slope, but guess you gotta draw the line somewhere

Uhu good post. There's a fairly big trans community on GAF too and they clearly don't like being called that. Some of the bans are a bit much though, especially since, and you can just put it down to pure ignorance (especially with me not being a native English speaker) , someone like me actually had no idea how many consider it a slur.

Then there is Ryan Giggs, who has been a fixture in the Premier League since its inception, a man who has a personal trophy cabinet that many clubs would pay king’s ransom for. He is now 40 but remains Manchester United’s best player.

Eh I can agree if the job was done. Circumstances are that getting to a semi final is a two part job for a club like Arsenal.

I'm not saying they all should have sat in silence listening to Per fart the german national anthem, but go mental when ya win it!

Still gotta beat Mr Potato head and his merry band of northerners first.

I would also like an answer to this, considering the majority of our season has been plagued by a mystery illness that passes from player to player faster than Ebola.

Well, that game against Dortmund was shit. Not really because of Peps tactics but for the attitude they had. I hope that they learned and are well prepared for Madrid now. Still smh why Pep played a 2-5-3 against Dortmund with MARTINEZ as CB... Guess we'll never know.

You'd better fucking sort it out against Madrid. You lot do my head in on occasion, but I can't have those twats winning La Decima. No way, no how. Football cannot be allowed to die so soon after ourselves and Atletico have breathed life back into it :p


Although I think the final would be dreadfully boring if you were in it under Pep. Especially if it was against Chelsea, who'd be happy to let you play keep-ball on the halfway line.

Sadly there aren't any decent quality clips on Youtube that I could find. Capped this one with gifcam. The whole scene is just the best.

"Hey, I guess they're right! Senior citizens, although slow and dangerous behind the wheel, can still serve a purpose. I'll be right back. Don't you go dying on me!"

"Little old lady! Little old lady!"

Looool

Ha. I can just imagine Iaquinta sniffling once because a bit of dust gets caught in his nostril, and Conte using it as an excuse to send him home for 3 months

I think it's like 5. Feel bad for even asking this.

I can't make fun of Kompany without feeling so bad about it. He's such a gentleman.

He's quality. I'll never forget the moment I had my picture with him.

Sales-gaf are looking forward to Titanfall numbers the same way we look forward to CL finals. It's like the future of the generation rests on how well it sold.
