A thread about a man named Xabi

[DJLJ]

So are we believing bascombe on this one?

 

I think a lot can be read into whether Alonso is on the plane to the far east. If he goes with the squad, I believe he will stay, if not, I believe he'll go. Guess we can wait and see tomorrow.

I think MoN would rather saw off his nads than sell us a player. Young is still potential, and even 20m is a tad steep.

Ashley young

 

I think Chris has been trawling RAWK for stories

[hamstrung]

Yes why wouldn't we? He wouldn't just make that up on a whim would he?

 

Reading between the lines it looks like it doesn't mean Xabi won't leave still though as Madrid could come in with the asking price next week and Rafa takes the dough despite Xabi not actively wanting to leave. I don't think the article is meant to be a Xabi is 100% defo staying piece but more of a he isn't actively looking to leave and if he does leave it will be others who make it happen rather than himself which was the case only two short weeks ago.

 

I thought the accepted wisdom was he wants to leave because he hates the nasty fat beardy man?

 

Is it now he is desperate to stay and will only go if the nasty fat beardy man forces him to?

I have a feeling he will be on the plane to be honest or he could turn round and do his best B.A. Baracus impression and say ''I ain't getting on no damn plane Rafa''.

He may just not be desperate to leave rather than desperate to stay if you get what I mean.

 

He can do nothing though if Madrid cough up the reddies next week though. Then the ball is firmly in Rafa's court and we will see how much Rafa really wants to keep him then.

I thought the accepted wisdom was whatever made the nasty fat beardy man solely* responsible.

 

*To clarify - on the basis that I believe there is shared responsibility.

[cochcaer]

Or it's a leaked story to force Madrid's hand.

[hamstrung]

Or it's a leaked story to force Madrid's hand.

 

The other accepted wisdom is that the club give Bascombe nothing, so that would suggest its from Xabi.

 

Bad Xabi.

 

Fucked if I know who I am supposed to hate.

[Torvald Utne]

That can't be real..surely not??

Rash.:whistle:

[Hand Shandy]

I think it's in Swindon.

 

There's a similar one in Hemel Hempsted which I have had the pleasure of driving round.

 

It's a bit of a head-fuck - you're never quite sure which way you're supposed to be looking!

[The Bugged Out]

I am unsure about Ashley Young, let alone the price involved. Kuyt scored 12 and got 8 assists in the league and Young scored 7 and got 7 assists. Young is far more pleasing to the eye than Kuyt and can beat a man more readily, he has room to improve but at £20 million+ I expect more than potential.

 

I agree with that. I would've been more convinced about Silva if it weren't for his injuries last season.

[Torvald Utne]

I'm sitting here thinking why not just have 1 big roundabout? but why have any? what is this country's obsession with roundabouts all about?

[Anubis]

What?!

[loadsoftrophies]

Chris Bascombe = Michael Owen

[kop]

So are we believing bascombe on this one?

 

He is only offering his opinion and passing on his judgement of the happenings of late, so there's nothing to believe or not, just agree or not.

[sir roger]

 

Me and the Missus are visiting the Cotswolds for a week in August & staying down in Cirencester for 2 of the nights. I don't drive , so she will be doing it all , much to her chagrin.

 

There is absolutely no way she is getting to see that picture before we go.

I am hoping he's right rather than believing.

I lived round the corner from that beast not so long ago.

 

Wierd thing is, it works.....

That roundabout was inspired by TLW forum - circles within circles.

[esoteric]

Jeeze I thought Skem was bad.

[Red Phoenix]

I'm sure this thread is one of the reasons I stay in the G* more nowadays. Will seeyou next week more once he's gone. (even though saying that makes me feel like shit, I'm pretty drunk.)

 

Have a good one Xabi, you'll be missed bud.
