United fans will find out next season.

 

[Rikkun]

What is Europa League

The one where the only Italian team moving forward is Juventus

 

[Salvadora]

Paulista was solid I thought but Boro offered nothing going forward that really tested anyone in our team. Extremely comfortable performance dominated from start to finish.

We were solid. Gabriel played well and made some great challenges. Middlesbrough didn't offer much going forward though.

The interplay between Alexis, Ozil and Cazorla was fantastic at times.

Dominant.

Paulista got a yellow though.

Thanks lads.

Was really nervous because of the form Middlesbrough were in.

Giroud has been a great signing, all things considered. The technique for that goal was unreal.

 

[Baki]

Yes.

An amazing backup striker.

Except he isn't.

Decided I can't be bothered with Bill Burr's Monday Morning podcast. Every episode is the same. Might start on 1up Yours again, this time from beginning to end

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Too many fucking faces

 

[jtb]

"Great" is a bit much.

No amount of technique will compensate for how comically, absurdly slow he is.

He was cheap, though.

[BeauRoger]

How has Calum Chambers performed in the Arsenal shirt so far? He was great for Southampton.

That's racist.

How has Calum Chambers performed in the Arsenal shirt so far? He was great for Southampton.

considering his age and the duties lumped upon him....

 

[Ingeniero]

Arsenal is the best team to support in the world.

 

[spidye]

Who is this Coleman guy?

Should I get interested in a daily sun rumor?

 

[Blablurn]

Dortmund could still get relegated

Dat Paderborn tho

 

[Yurt]

Sorry Dean bit laggy eh

one of the English shits should offer to share it 😠😠😠😠😠 you selfish bastards 😠😠😠

HELP DEAN

Yeah I finally got past her yesterday, took me about 30 tries lol. And zombie dog is this thing: http://i.imgur.com/uQr7cIB.png I probably just need to shoot the eye, just didn't have patience for it right after dealing with spiderlady. I'll try it again later today.

use your bomb-arrows and grenades on him, he'll go down quickly. First start going from one room to the other to get a few free shots from inside. Circle around the cars and pillars if you run outta rooms! You know he's close to death when you see him glowing purple

Shooting the eye blinds him for a bit but you don't even need to do that if you have enough bomb-arrows

 

[Lightning]

How has Calum Chambers performed in the Arsenal shirt so far? He was great for Southampton.

Considering his experience level, no rest for the first half of the season, no protection from players around him as we leaked goals galore he's been acceptable. Great learning experience, had many excellent performances but made some mistakes, got exposed against pace many times and some of his decision making is questionable. Also picked up too many cards.

Overall I really like him and think he can achieve big things with more experience and maturity.

This American Life
Serial (spin off from TAL)

They're the only ones I really listen to, cos they have transcripts which is great.

 

[BeauRoger]

He's shit.

What are the weaknesses in his game?

 

[Diablo Rosso]

Dat new thread smell.

 

[Linius]

Hi

 

[wedward]

What are the weaknesses in his game?

Being in the correct position.

 

[jtb]

This American Life

yes, serial was so good.

really, you can't go wrong with a lot of the core NPR programming. Fresh Air does the best celebrity interviews of any show I can think of.

 

[Rikkun]

Mancini said Juventus has the best midfield in Europe.

So basically in the whole club world

WE COMIN BVBVBVBVBVB

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Daft Souls
Richard Herring's LSTP
Kermode and Mayo Film Show

Listened to RHLSTP.

Paul Putner is the least funny man on the planet. Trevor Lock depressed me. He was so good on the Russell Brand show, was never the same after the rape allegations though

I'll move on to Daft Souls when I get to the point of Videogamer where Matt Lees departs

 

[Elchele]

I expected better title from Rikkun

 

[Lightning]

Being in the correct position.

Making the correct decision would be more accurate for me. Got caught up field a lot and then burnt on pace getting back. Again though this is experience with Arsenal's play style along with the lack of support from fellow players. Mertesacker next to him for was in terrible form for the first half of the season, Flamini shit all season etc.

 

[Yurt]

Ricky made the OT


we made it

He didn't even pull a premface and force a Serieface title down your collective throats

we are so nice ;_;

 

[Elchele]

Dortmund could still get relegated

Dat Paderborn tho

Paderborn won? wow. I hope they manage to stay up, they're quite decent.
I'm good with Hertha and Stuttgart going down. They add absolutely nothing to the league

 

[L1NETT]

I'll move on to Daft Souls when I get to the point of Videogamer where Matt Lees departs

Found post Lees videogamer right fucking good. But Daft Souls is smashing.

Don't think i've ever agreed with Miller but Burns has really come out of his shell in the past year/so.
