Rival watch

In the PL : only if you are in the top 8.

 

Tony Pulis Goal of the Season contender:

 

Bournemouth had 10 shots on target in their two games against Liverpool and scored 6 goals.
That's either very efficient or useless goalkeeping. Possibly a mixture of the two.

 

Josh King having a very decent season, we could do a lot worse than making an offer in the summer. Would give us pace up front, the only thing Harry lacks.

 

Excellent!

Only if the cat had actually caught fire, as well. It would be hilarious if they got relegated, again.

 

For the Spammers thread??
(They sure as hell ain't a rival)

 

If that is a Hebrew menorah holding those candles, then
the Yid army has beat the white thicko yet again.

God, I hope we get the chance to relegate them at the White elephant.

 

I wonder how many times it has happened before that by the time of the semi-final draw there are four teams that could win the double (in theory anyway )

 

Jesse Lingard has been awarded a 4 year contract @ £100k pw. Howls of laughter heard from Germany where players have to achieve something of note to get paid a fraction of that. It's up to our clubs what they spend on transfer fees and wages but when he gets that and Sterling is on £185k P.w. our national team is ****ed.

Royally and completely ****ed.

 

It's all media conjecture at the moment, but that does seem ludicrous, doesn't it?
Am I missing something about him or is he just a bit average?

 

I've seen him win games by scoring goals but I'm struggling to think of a game that he's dominated or where he's been unplayable. He scores infrequently and I'll be surprised if he is a first choice at United in 2 years time. He's a bit Tom Cleverly for me.

 

If it is £100k, that is outrageous.

 

Just to put this in perspective Eriksen (who is only 10 months older) recently signed a contract of similar length for 70k a week, and he is twice the player Lingaard is.
Man U love wasting money don't they!

 

Lingard is ordinary. But all the players look ordinary playing in the style Utd do. The slow tempo and lack of runners from midfield beyond Ibrahimovic makes the play very tedious. Lingard, like Martial and Rashford, would be better suited to a quicker pace with opportunities to isolate defenders and run at and beyond them.

 

Even LDL wants Rashford to go to Spurs. <Et tu, LDL ?? >

 

Spurs, you mean?

 

I think you're doing Christian a significant disservice there.

The only reason to pay him £100k per week would be as a stealth tap-up.

"If we're paying this ****er £5m a year, imagine what we'll be prepared to pay someone decent?"
