Sorry HIAG, as owner and arbitrator of this fine thread, I can only defer to your wishes. I will not mention any other club than my beloved pool on this thread again. Once again, please accept my sincerest apologies.
1 point with 2 goals from set pieces not their ****&crappa and they think they're Barcalona ffs. http://www.espn.co.uk/football/sport/story/166982.html?CMP=OTC-RSS

Yes, against the Champions, and in our second league match with a new manager and our youngest team in 10 years. Seriously, did u even watch the match yesterday?
So... you call tika-taka '****' ... But then you insult us for not playing like Barcelona, the shining example of tika take. Which one is it?
"I think this is the way we have to play this year. Because there is a new manager, we need time, but if we can play like this I think we will get many points. It is like the manager wants," Enrique said. "He tells us when we lose the ball to press like lions. He wants the team, when we have the ball, to try to keep it but when we don't have the ball, to do better than when we have it, press and try to take the ball." (Enrique, talking about how ex-Championship manager Brenda Rodgers wants 'Pool to play like Barcelona) The delusion has taken a firm hold on the players, now. "...press like lions..." WTF!!! You've got Downing in your side, ffs! He's more like a pussy-cat. And a scabby, mangey one, at that. Not even a nice clean cat.
Downing is being pushed further down the ranks behind a 17 year old and an un-heard of Morrocan. And rightly so.
I hope that Enrique's misquoted Rodgers, there. How does a lion press, exactly? Maybe someone can pop across to Essex and find out.
I don't even want to know where or how you found that image, SR. I hope it wasn't used as part of the team talk.
