We Really Can't be Bothered -- The Other Teams Thread (R)

on the other hand, if he can continue to be shit enough to drive his price down to around 6, i wouldn't mind the depth.

 

The last 15 minutes of the Inter/Udinese match was cray.


Im watching United/Villa now, Hernandez ruptured his Achilles didnt he?

 

Just looks like a sprain in replay but apparently he has torn ligaments, a feeling I know so well :-(

 

the legend that is socrates has died.
what a great player he was.

 

just as he lived and showed us how to play the game, i'd rather celebrate his life, more than anything else. The one thing that I admired about his game, was his idea of playing the game , based on simple passing. He is one of the few players that made me understand that the most simplest pass in the game at times is the most complex move one can make, most of all he made the game look easy. How I would wish players like Diaby would have grown studying him,he made the game look simple with ease and class. Like the scientist he was , he broke the game down. what a legend

 

Legend. Thanks for the memories. RIP.

 

Sócrates Brasileiro Sampaio de Souza Vieira de Oliveira, MD, legendary Captain of A Seleção, 19 February 1954-4 December 2011.

 

Sad news. Great player and class act all around.
The Socrates, Falcao, Toninho Cerezzo, Zico quatuor was just magic.

In addition to his vision and skills on the field, Doctor Socrates was a strong advocate for democracy and human rights and was very vocal against the military rulers in Brazil in the 80's. He will be missed. RIP

 

RIP to the great Socrates. An outstanding, and interesting, footballer.

 

Manchester derby in the FA Cup 3rd round. Love that.

 

Watching Sunderland - wolves...bendtner seems to be improving his touch quite a bit, I think this loan may be good for him.

 

As true as that may be, Nik's not on loan to improve his form, he's on loan because we couldn't find anyone willing to buy him at our price.

 

True, but no one is past redemption, especially for wenger. Should be interesting

 

Apparently Carlos Vela had quite a goal today to win the game for whoever he plays for in La Liga.

 

It's amazing how entertaining a match between the 16th and 17th teams in the league can be. Wolves & Sunderland has been fun.

 

Newcastle's Pardew is apparently interested to make a offer for him. I bet that Arsenal will gladly accept any bid north of 9 M pounds.
I dont think he has a future at Arsenal anymore.

Prince, how many Socrates games u seen? people always hype up legends without seeing them

 

I saw most of Brazil's matches at the 82 world cup. However, your post is random as hell and coming sideways when all I said was:

I didnt say he was the best ever. I didnt say he could play today. I didnt say that he was a GAWD or any other nonsense. All I said is htat he was outstanding (which he was) and interesting because of his political activism and awesome shit talking. The post was actually one of the least controversial things I have said on here and was just to celebrate his life, thats it. The real question is why your soul burning slow?

 

Socrates was immense. RIP indeed.

 

The British media are a bunch of morons. Carrolls the biggest waste of money, why the fixation on Torres? i'd rather be ripped off paying for Torres than for Carroll. Least Torres made sense, Carroll buy was the WOAT.

 

I remember when some folks on here were getting aggy when some of us said Bendtner>>>Carroll, acting like Carroll was brilliant and the next coming.

Carroll is a donkey in the truest sense.

 

Still 0-0 between Fulham and Pool. That could be a good result for us if it stays that way.
