    I know he did, but he was rubbish really.

    That Barca semi, I was at both legs. He was absolutely, completely and utterly anonymous in the first leg away from home. We might as well have played with ten men.

    He did a great job of harassing them in the home leg though, ran his nuts off to the floor fair play. Did a job in other words.

    Nah that's way off the mark. Shteve for all his wumming is pretty good witg his understanding of the game and his knowledge of players and tactics. And that's coming from someone who may not always agree with him.

    Agreed actually.
    Think he is probably the second biggest **** on this whole site after foredeckdave, but he does know his football VERY well.
    Admittedly I am not the best WUM, but he defeated a WUM attempt I made about your defence a while back with some sound logic.
    Just a shame he is obnoxious, tribal and pig headed and loves Matth

    If we
    I thought Park up to 2008 was fine. It was gradually afterwards when our midfield became any combination of Park, Fletcher, Carrick, Anderson that he turned to ****. By 2011 he was awful. You could bet a pound to a penny everytime he got the ball he'd run himself into a cul-de-sac and eventually lose possession.

    <laugh> Couldnt agree more about NoDickDave <ok> Realised he was the biggest prick on here pretty quickly when I paid my respects on a Shankly thread and he attacked me for saying RIP. Now there's a cock if ever there was one.

    I understood why Fergie used Park and I admired his commitment to the cause but I hated him as a player. His first touch and short passing was at times terrible. Still, he ranks higher than Silvestre, a player I took a very strong dislike to as he was a constant liability.

    That's because you're a Chelsea fan and are tribal, arrogant and inconsistent.

    Tribal? I suppose to a degree, but far less than 99% on Not606
    Arrogant? Not by any stretch, at least not often (we all have bad days)
    inconsistent? Definitely! I am one of the most inconsistent people you will ever meet, so must concede that one. Maybe I am Bi-Polar? <laugh>
    THE **** YOU LOOKING AT?! <grr>

    Has anyone youtube Costa, I never realised what a vile dirty player is really is, how did some of those players not punch him for some of the stuff he done... Over time he is going to disgrace Chelsea even more these types of players just can't help themselves

    No but you need to remember that some of your lot were no angels. Keane actually admitted that he deliberately went out to hurt a player. Put your brain in gear before slating other players. Look a bit closer to home.

    Yes I did like Cantona and Keane. Cracking players. They were dirty bastards at times though.

    It is a contact sport, and Costa's antics give you something to squeal about while you gaze longingly up the league table

    The point about Keane and Cantona was a great one, no United fan would say these 2 disgraced United and most hold them up as club legends. If Costa wins trophies and scores goals for Chelsea and manages to annoy rival fans at the same time...then he will also go down as a club great :)

    I'm guessing it's something about two wrongs?

    Although if I recall correctly, that still doesn't make it right...

    The RS are getting very excited about coutinho signing an extension to his contract.

    Really a sign of how low they've sunk. He is really gash. And no big club will want to sign him anyway.
