Blackpool had 3 players sent off in a defeat yesterday, cue their Manager

"They've let everyone down," said Ince, who has himself just served a five-match stadium ban. "They've let the fans down and the club down.

Well, what a fucking terrible choice for the German and Swiss newspapers. Thanks for ruining this award, Yurt.

BBC Sport @BBCSport
If a manager has been disciplined himself does he have any right to discipline his own players? Tweet #bbcsportsday
 
Today was my birthday.

Celebrated by eating McDonalds and now going to bed early in order to wake up at 3:45am to watch a match against fucking Norwich. Hopefully we won't get hit by the Odd Morsel birthday curse since it won't technically be my birthday anymore.

Happy Birthday!

This is much better. Still some very notable omissions, but eh

Edit: Googling Suso gif led me to GAF, and I found this: http://neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=42791755&postcount=9125
I also initially rated Sahin, after Norwich and BA LC games, but really he was very ineffective.

Didn't see that lol

No one at the fucking place watches the sport
Valdes got nominated for the best goalkeeper haha

Marcelo got nominated despite only playing 14 league games last year and 9 so far this year

i'm convinced that they just go on fifa 14 and see the highest rated players

is that ibe

:lol you might be right

Valdes has been really good this season to be fair. And I really rate Marcelo but he's been injured half the year, yeah.

It's the same everywhere though innit, there's no way someone like Schneiderlin is getting a PFA player nom at the end of the year even if he keeps his form up, because he isn't at a 'big' club and, like that fucking shuffling oik Scott Parker, he isn't English.
 
i can't believe vidic is nominated as well.

Didn't see that lol

Vidic has been good in 2013.

He was absent for the whole of 2012 so it took half a season away from his 2011/12 and 2012/13 season away, but he's actually played in 2013. United went on a run of clean sheets as soon as he came back last season. Aside from the two mistakes in Sunderland and Shakhtar, he's been a beast.

I genuinely thought apart from the opening month or two of last season, Rio was phenomenally good. Easily the standout defender over the entire year considering Kompany missed large spells.

Been shite this year though, so it's been nice to have Vidic in relatively good form. He's a better choice than Piqué and fucking Pepe are, but like Yurt said, no Barzagli (and to a lesser extent Bonucci) is nuts.

Need to watch all of House of Cards S1

My worst post has to be when I said Rafael was overrated.

Then Kharma agreed with me haha

Wooden thinks he is as well

But that's only because he compares him to the majesty of Premier Ass

Usho probably thinks Walker's better. Shogun definitely thinks Johnson's better. DC's probably under the illusion/under the influence of drugs and thinks that Richards is better.

how will football-gaf resolve this lineup riddle???

can we have a gaf xi???

A world XI? I did one the other day but viva will just laugh at me again :(

Would amend it a bit though, yurt made a nice point of having more creativity and that Martinez and Busquets were overkill. So I'd go for Kroos over one of them. Lopez as well over Courtois. Fuck it I'm indecisive

Lopez; Lahm, Kompany, Thiago, Marcelo; Vidal, Busquets, Kroos; Ribery, Messi, Ronaldo

OR DO YOU MEAN A GAF XI

I'll play the Phil jones role

Moyes thinks Smalling is better

I'm not accountable for his sins

Fuck off the Phil Jones role is mine.
 
A few lines here and there never hurt anyone. Go Nigelia whatever you are, I know who you are from images but not sure what you actually do.

We can both play it. Imagine how destroyed the other team would be. It's like playing COD and they've only got a knife and we've just triggered two air strikes and a bunch of fucking dogs

She introduced two generations of sex starved teenage boys to cooking, and more than likely an equal number used this hobby to fuck fruit.
