nice of davey moyes to try and lighten my mood after our result.

 

 

went on red café just to see what they thought one guy honestly said "he needs time given the squad he inherited"

 

fuckin hell they won the title last year the man is fantastic at lowering expectations, long may it continue.

I've watched mediocre football all my life, I'm more than happy that my United counterparts can now enjoy the experience. It'll do them good. It's already doing me a world of good!

They're not all that forgiving. Some over there are in meltdown mode, calling the players shit, the manager shit, and the owners shit.

 

A bit like here whenever we go top of the league.

Some incident from yesterday:

"No wonder he's in the fackin' reserves innit!"

[Jairzinho]

Barry offside for their first goal, and had two challenges worthy of a red card.

[Guest LFD]

West Brom vs our under 21s on LFCTV now (not started yet).

 

Team - Ward, McLaughlin, Smith, Jones, Paez, Roddan, Morgan, Teixeira, Ngoo, Brannagan, Ibe.

 

Subs - Sama, Mersin, Yesil, Peterson, Lussey.

 

Nice to see Ngoo back.

[Guest LFD]

No Rossiter as he is with the England U17s, they play later today.

[fowler9]

thought Ilori might have been involved having not been in the squad yesturday

[Guest LFD]

1-0 Teixeira, decent strike, maybe the keeper could have done better.

[alles ist gut]

I believe Ilori came back from international duty with a knock, otherwise he might well have travelled with the 1st team.

 

1-1 (Vydra)

[Jairzinho]

For fuck sake, Juventus.

[Jairzinho]

Two nil up at half time, now losing 4-2.

[Guest LFD]

Rossi is on fire.  8 goals in 8 games.

[Code]

Two nil up at half time, now losing 4-2.

 

Cant really believe this, Juve looked totally in control and then out of nothing Fiorentina score 4 goals in 15 minutes.

 

Crazy shit, I was thinking about having bet on Juve as they have not lost away to Fiorentina since 98, but I thought better o0f it as I could see a draw coming up, never imagined something like this though.

I had Juventus in a treble. Thought it was done and dusted at 0-2. They just fell apart, Fiorentina didn't even play that brilliantly.

[Anubis]

Poor goalkeeping from Gouzan.

[fowler9]

fuck off Spurs

 

 

anyone else dislike them more than ever this season?

Yes, I'm putting it down to the fact that this is probably their best side for many years.

I'm not convinced there as good as all the hype, they still have glaring weaknesses as do Arsenal (and us for that matter) which have been covered by good starts but will get exposed over the season

 

I thought not having that cunt Bale in their team might make them more likeable

I agree with you, but considering how shite they were up unto 'Arry took over I think it's probably a fair statement.

 

Spurs have always had cocky fucks in their team, but combine that cockiness with actual ability and being in a team that is competing with your team and you've got someone who's hateability factor is through the roof. Remember Ronaldo at the Mancs? Don't think I've ever hated another player as much. Now? Not so much,

[Newport]

Spurs win comfortably, but they are boring as fuck. And I'm not on the Townsend hype bandwagon at all. Nothing special about him.

know what you mean about Ronaldo, still think he is a massive bell end but nowhere near the hatred I had for him when he played for them

[kalasoma]

I watched all four of Fiorentina's goals against Juventus and I can't figure out how they managed to score that many so quickly. Rossi's hat-trick was good though. It's as if Juventus thought it was over at half time and decided not to bother playing. I remember Pirlo having a free kick saved in the second half, but not much else. Llorente isn't working out.

I'm with you. I don't think he's among their best players. It's one of the things I most hate about modern football: players like him and Januzaj being hailed as the next messiah after a couple of decent performances and an endless wankathon of useless pundits saying they're the best young talent they've ever seen commencing. From what I've seen so far I think he'll end up like Lennon more likely than not. Decent option but never really living up to the hype.

 

The only player like this for me who's looked a little bit special is Ramsey.
