I'm just creaming myself thinking of this one: Keeper: Saint Defense: who cares, they don't sell jerseys; just use three Mid: Xabi, Gourcuff, Kaka Wingers: Ribery, Silva Strikers: CR, Rooney
I'll make the "number of summer threads" thread and poll later on. If you guys want to give some suggestions for a poll for this thread go ahead. How about a list of all the possible players that we might get? We can go up to 16 choices. Throw out some names...
This thread title is absolute crap. I realize it is far easier to piss on your own team and come up with sarcastic pessimistic digs, but I sure hope it's not going to be a summer full of this whiny emo garbage.
Good idea. It has been players we don't need at all, too. Just to make it more likely. I start: Ribery and Villa.
Lol, but can we at least keep it away from the thread titles. I mean no wonder we have been getting so many Barca trolls around lately. They stumble upon this forum, read the thread title and think oh I must be home, it's mocking Real Madrid.
I don't see that his thread title is mocking. It befits our team's history of always looking for the best of the best players - for better or worse. Nothing to be ashamed of, it's what we do.
Eh, don't take it that seriously, it's just slightly poking fun at ourselves as we salivate over players in these threads while we know we already have a team on paper that should have walloped Lyon, Alcorcon et al.
Don't dis Alcorcon. Those guys were scary fast. One more name, to add to Ribery, Villa and Gourcuff: Vargas, from Fiorentina. We sell Drenthe and get him. It'd be a straight swap of a player we didn't need at all for one we won't need at all.
Oh and for the poll, why not just do an obvious one: And please add any others I left off, though I purposely left off some that don't really seem signable e.g. Evra & Fabregas. Then again, neither did a Kaka+Ronaldo double swoop edit: Oh I think I missed the second part of Horsey's post, but yeah, those guys should obviously be on there.
