LA is a fucking cesspool. The last place on earth Id live. Trust me I tried it for 6 months.
The place is built for cars, not people. And its full of fake consumerist wannabe stars. And swedish musicians making english pop hits. Its horrible.
To be fair despite his abysmal first touch and the ease with which he was getting turned, he can whip in a good cross and did on several occasions, often from an awkward position his first touch had put him into...
A fine crosser of the ball if nothing else.
That one tackle where he sprinted back to make a two footed lunging block in our penalty box summed it up.
He was boss all game though he did show his limitation in passing and his tendency to get caught in possession once or twice. That's part of the package, and at the moment, its a great overall package.
I did for many years, cant really justify it anymore...
Wasnt it common for the roman emperors to throw big public feasts and parades after great victories, humiliating their vanquished enemies? Show us a conqueror's generosity, Dave.
Officially calling on Dave U to celebrate this occasion with a publicly available match report. Come on Dave. We all deserve to share in your tectonic gloatgasm.
Strongly disagree. In the 3-4-3 we often see our CBs have the most time on the ball and looking to pass the ball forward into midfield. When Kolo Toure has time on the ball and looks to pass it forward into the midfield bad things happen. That link between defence and midfield is key and having a genuine ball player in defence is a very good idea. I think putting Can back there is a great move.
Indian Roller (Coracias benghalensis)
At 1.3 meters average altitude this fast flying and undoubtedly very fit bird evades all but the most modern radar installations. Though there are rumors of Israeli antimissile systems successfully tracking Coracias Benghalensis these are unconfirmed and probably invented by the Iranians in a grotesque attempt at radar satire (not to be confused with radio satire which is outlawed in Iran because radios are outlawed in Iran). Expect a statement from President Putin before lunch, Kamchatka time. He considers himself an expert on fit birds and radar systems and has notified his aides to notify him immediately when anything is said on the subject so he can add his 2 rubles (significantly less than 2 cents).
