I wish we wouldn't boo Neill, it's not necessary.

When we play Mokoena and Tugay, I always feel they're too far away from the attack. Mokoena's not supposed to be near the attack, Tugay doesn't have the legs anymore. I think someone like Reid would give us more.
 
YES! YES! 4-4-2! YES!

Chimbonda was one meter from giving away a goal, it's changing already... it's changing, the tide. Come on Kaboul and Robinson.


LOL YES M;ASDMKLÖSDKLÖSD GOAL BY BIANCHIDKJ AS AHAHH!

Hear! Hear! One of favourite players of all time! Watching him against Holland in Euro 2004 was just plain awesome!

That was an epic match. I'll never forget that crazy Bosvelt for Robben substitution by Advocaat.

Oh yeah. That was mad. Oh, and Baros certainly enjoyed himself in that game too. :P

Did yours burst or did you catch it before that? And did they CT scan you? Also, mine was at the end of September and everything was totally fine except for the left incision from the laprascopy. They said the pain was normal but noooooo. Bastards.
It was *this* close to bursting. The initial pain started on a Friday night and I insisted on being a tough guy and waiting until early Monday morning to go to hospital. There was a backlog there and they didn't even get it out of me until Monday afternoon. Docs said I was a real dumbass for waiting. :lol

They gave me a CT, yeah. They were pretty sure it was appendicitis when I came in though. Thankfully my laprascopy went fine. Assholes nickel and dimed me on pain meds pre-op though. I swore I was gonna choke a bitch several times. Dumbass nurses kept waking me up during the night to make sure I was OK too. (My systolic blood pressure hovers in the 80s at rest and that's supposed to be dangerous or some shit even though 90 is considered healthy. Go figure.)

Indeed he did. What was especially hilarious was the fact that Germany lost their 3rd match against the reserves of Czech Rep., allowing Holland to advance with just 4 points. :lol


:lol @ Karakand. Match ended in 4-2, btw, no goals were scored in the second half.
 
Santa Cruz's passing is really poor today, I'd bring on Roberts.

Neither side is playing the ball into the box, it's not a very good game.
 
Got a bit better in the last 5 mins of the half, game opened up a bit.

I wish Pedersen and Dunn would hug the touchline more. Particularly Pedersen, that's his natural position, there's no need for him to come inside. We have Tugay and Mokoena already there, McCarthy and Santa Cruz both coming deeper as they like to, and Dunn and Pedersen coming in off the wings. So we don't have the outlet balls from the middle that we should, we're not stretching them.

Sort it out, Santa Cruz. I need some points in my Metro Fantasy footie.

THEN WHY THE FUCK HAVE THE ASSIST POINTS GONE TO CORLUKA
:lol

*sigh* Ireland hatefest already starting. Stupid mistake but he's also won matches for the squad this season. Blues fans just want to hate him for some reason. :(

Liverpool, Arsenal and Man City all getting beat in one weekend. Christmas comes early for man utd fans.

What about Chelsea fans? (tumbleweed rolls past)

*cough*
 
Oh this is pissing me off, we should be drawing this game, it's very even. Santa Cruz just missed a good heading chance. West Ham are defending well though, and Ashton's been a right bastard since he came on.
 
My fantasy points got royally fucked today. It was bad enough yesterday but I've added:

- Toure giving away a penalty and getting a yellow card
- Ireland getting a red card
- Dunne conceded two goals and getting a yellow card

Total disaster week in ever way when it comes to football. Going to finish the day with fewer points than I started.

And Blackburn just lost as well...if Chelsea had lost it'd be fucking New Year's.

Either way...

Yep its good times being a Man U fan.. *knocks on wood*... Let's hope Arsenal loses once more and Man U wins the league again. :)
 
Oh man the Yoda part in Star Wars Episode II gets me everytime. :lol

Blackburn lost, so it sucks all round for nearly every regular poster in this thread.

Of all the 1000+ posters only psycho snake and Osorio are smiling.

I didn't notice the "1000 post club" bit, but at least I'll have a fun day at work tomorrow, for once. :P
