The DEFINITIVE English football banter thread

[Y2Jryder]

So next week we play against Man City. We need to in one of the confrontations against them to still make a little chance for the 3rd spot. I think Madrid will be 1st in our group and the City/Dortmund battle for the 2nd spot could get interesting.

I hope Eriksen finally shows his talent or else I don't think he deserves a place in our start line-up any more. The same thing you can say about Siem de Jong but he isn't a talent just like Eriksen

• 1986 utd finished 11th.Fergies 1st game in charge beaten 2-0 by oxford utd,drew a week later with Norwich.87-88 he spends massively and signs Bruce,Anderton,Mclair and Leighton.89-90 spends huge sums again on Webb,Phelan,Ince,Pallister,Wal*lace.End of 91 he signs Schmeichel,Parker,Sharpe and Kanchelskis.The team from the three years before is unrecognisable.Why can't a single Utd fan recognise they've got where they are today by exactly the same route?Fucking bitter red bastards all of them.

I agree with Busquets, don't like him but he wouldn't be in that team if he wasn't good and certainly wouldn't be playing there ahead of Mascherano and Song.

Liverpool v City u21's today Van! 1.45pm KO.

[magglis]

I dunno if you guys have heard but City are apparently linked with Sergio Biscuits (Implying that's not his last name ;D) from Barca.

Whilst this means the Premier League gets 1 of La Ligas biggest divers and BPL catches Seria A and La Liga is pathetic diving. I'm personally for him coming to City.

Hell, wouldn't you guys want 1 of the best CDMs at your club? I don't personally think he'd move to us but never know in football.

Get a load of this faggot!
Here's what's wrong with this idiots logic.

Why would City want to purposefully unsettle a team we're most liking not going to play and if we do we're months away from it. We don't benefit in the slightest from unsettling Barca players. If it was Real, yeah maybe.

Are all people in La Liga who're in this guys position retarded?

You should remove this word the last time a mod saw someone using this word they almost ban him.And they said they will be no more warnings for using this word

I did it until he removes it.It was just a friendly warning

[Tommy Thunder]

Can't really hate people for being 1 of the best pal. Only idiots think like that and you're not 1 of those lol

Exactly. Despite me not liking Madrid as a Barca supporter, I can acknowledge how good their players are.

[Tommy Thunder]

Oh, and regarding Busquets, I think he's good, but he is overrated IMO. Getting into the team ahead of Mascherano and Song isn't that big of an achievement. Again, just my opinion.
However Busquets partnering Toure for City could be a good partnership in the middle.

A question for Van though, what would City's midfield look like if Busquets was to come in?
