Bunch of ungrateful people, pretending to be european All timers, when history for you people only started being written not so long ago.

And why is it that every goddamn new player, young player over there is always labeled as the next Maradona etc.

Cocky ass people, seriously. Catalunya overall is like that, bunch of cocky and borderline unpleasant people.

Here's the run: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Po66XGaO3dM

Messi did those two things in a span of a few weeks or something.

just flicked through the channels and they were showing Arse - Manyoo from 2003.

I had blocked this game out of my memory, Soskjaer you diving cheating prick. And then the bloody Surrey supporters have the audacity to sing "same old Arsenal, always cheating".

Fucking cunts.

:lol

Oh man, low blow.

Why can't we just be real about these things, why we have to be all nice and crap. I hate having to mask my opinion.

Because some opinions are out of line. General opinion makes some things acceptable and some things not. If I could go back 50 years or went to Afghanistan, many of my opinions would be completely unacceptable. Doesn't necessarily mean the opinion is wrong, but forums where anything goes are just chaos and attract the truly repellent.

GAF's no different really. Having a go at entire peoples isn't going to go down well.

Well, then there's no reason to keep stating why you are wrong in most of your posts. You're just a hater who thinks he's above Barça fans because his team is having a momentum.

Did you hear when LaPorta (I think) said that Cesc is no longer welcome to return to Barca because he's turned them down too many times

If I remember correctly, what he said is that Barça was not going to sign him back for a big amount of money because he was formed at Barcelona and decided to leave himself, so there was no reason to push him back to Camp Barça if he didn't want to be there from the beginning.
I dont know were you got that, but people around here are proud of him and wish him the best wherever he is. In fact, most Barça fans I know support Arsenal because of him. If he came back someday, I'm sure he would be gladly welcomed.
 
Sagna isn't all that happy it seems.

Sagna slams France's snub
by Laurent Picard, 19 May 2008

Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna is a frustrated man and he does not accept not to have been called up by Raymond Domenech to play Euro 2008 with France.

The best right back of The Premier League does not understand why he will not feature for his country in June, having been at the top of his game in the last two seasons with Auxerre and Arsenal.

The young man has slammed Domenech for having played Lassana Diarra in his position because the Portsmouth star is a natural midfielder.

Willy Sagnol, who rarely played for Bayern Munich this season, and Lyon’s Francois Clerc, are expected to make the final squad of 23.

The manager may not appreciate Sagna’s comments and his future in blue could be damaged by this interview given to RMC radio station.

“I deserved it,” Sagna said.

“I think I did my best, I have been voted best right back in France and then in England in the last two years.

“My injury came at the right moment because it is an excuse [not to call him up].

“Many people must be happy with it.

“I expected it because when there was no right back in the team, they played a number 6 [Diarra], next time why not a striker?”

*Hollywood United, an amateur team led by TV star Anthony LaPaglia, qualifying for the U.S. Open Cup.
:lol Awesome!

Speaking of gaming, I should also mention that I had a bit of fun chirping in the GT5 vs GRID thread earlier today, taking potshots at the most overrated racing series in the universe and riling up it's loyal defenders in the process. Thanks to my good work the thread finally got locked (ending with my post no less!), but not before two people had wished for both me and my mother to die. :lol

It takes a lot for me to even click on a thread on the gaming board (let alone post in one), but this thread was too good to pass up.
This is why I shit on Sonytards in particular, Steroyd. That thread was downright *embarrassing*. (But what thread for a Sony exclusive doesn't turn out that way these days?)

well that's at least good to hear. Whenever he's asked about Barca he only has good things to say as well. How could he not? He was a supporter for his entire life and I'm sure he still supports them to a certain extent.

Cesc really is a great guy. So much charisma and personality. You can't hate him.
 
Joan LaCUNTA can fuck off. The rabid Catalan's will have that snivelling little lawyer thrown out of the Nou Camp soon enough.

Angry, healthy Sagna will be fun to watch next season. :D
Karakand said:
:lol Awesome!
There was some clarification later on that article - apparently La Paglia runs the team and plays for the Over-40 squad, but their younger team was the one to qualify for the USOC. Would've been better if it was the one with La Paglia, Lalas, Vivian Campbell, Vinnie Jones, etc... :lol

I got into it a couple of weeks ago... it's not really that good. I played for two days and it's boring, frustrating and if you've joined late you only get old, injury prone wasters.

Also, it's really, really slow :(

Osorio?
 
I just found out that the Dutch tv network NOS will broadcast every single Euro 2008 game. Now, as you all know, the last group match is played simultaneously (at 20.45) so NOS has decided to show one match at Ned 1 and the other at Ned 3 (they also own Ned 2). Isn't that awesome? :D I'll be putting two tv's next to eachother haha.
 
so it's 9:26pm and I've pretty much covered most of what I need for my exam tomorrow.

Which has made me paranoid as I'm usually not ready this early.
 
Mama Smurf said:
Do you not normally get all games broadcast at the big tournaments?

Yes we do, but this is the first time they'll use multiple channels to broadcast matches at the same time. Before that they just made a choice between the two matches (like they do with the CL when there is no dutch competitor left).

That reminds me, I'm already 40 minutes past my self-allowed 15 minute break from studying for my test on friday. :lol

Comparison threads full stop turn to shit no matter what is being compared.
And I'm Vice Admiral of the Sony Brigade fyi.

My memory is a little hazy didn't Man City get thrashed 6-0 by Chelsea this season?

Yeah. When you right, you right. But i've had so many sour encounters in Barcelona...

But ok. Normally football fans just call each other cunts but i get what you sayin.

Mama's not a fan of people who have different opinions than him. You'll especially want to avoid the discussion of childrens books.

That being said, you cunt, Barcelona is cool. Grimy and dirty and poor, but just carry a football around and you'll be fine.

I'd plow every player in that picture except number 6 on the bottom left. That's a man baby!

Barcelona is poor? You wouldn't notice it by being there :lol

I would definitely annex some Sudetenland from there, if ya know what I mean.

I personally would love to be the tranny to germanys Ronaldo.

What? Maybe I was just there after brilliant Germany, but most of the city is pretty yuck.

I don't even know why you're upset though. United fans are the worst in the world.

That shameful viral marketing "documentary" they made for Too Human was allegedly put out by Norwegians!

What was this? :lol

PES will make massive improvements in the next version. Seabass said so. He knows that FIFA have made huge strides over the past few years. I think he even expanded his team for PES2009 so hopefully we'll see some new shit along with fixed lag and netcode.

No it won't PES is dead to me now, Seabass can fuck right off. He's like Peter Molyneux promising the earth but never delivering but at least Molyneux hasn't made the same fucking game every year.

Fifa will make loads of changes and generally be great but have little niggles that will annoy you. PES09 will be PES08 with something else horrendously broken.

I do.
 
I hope so. Left could be pretty good looking with a real haircut.

Might just be overestimating her, with her standing by Noel Fielding.

The night life in Barcelona is off the chain.

No, Roma fans are the worst fans in the world, and Inter Milan fans.
