Match Day Thread Proper football is almost here! PRESEASON TIME!

I had heard something about someone wanting to buy Wembley... I have no idea who though.

Carolina Panthers might be moving about 20 miles South out of North Carolina and into South Carolina though. They wanted to move near a big theme park near the border.

 

I don't like attention mate

 

ah yes. I think you are right there Solid old chap. my mistake.

 

blimey even on here people keep bringing up age.

 

only yours

 

with age comes wisdom




oh & receding grey hair , aching joints , flaccid bits and a random memory.
Plus a nice fat works pension.

 

nah wisdom.. Just the realisation that you know you don't know **** and it doesn't matter

 

Naby Keita has caught Daniel Sturridge by surprise with the breadth of his abilities.

The pair have struck up an instant rapport in the Liverpool dressing room and on the pitch since Keita joined the club this summer, linking up repeatedly when they have been in action simultaneously during pre-season so far.

The Guinea midfielder’s reputation went before him ahead of his transfer from RB Leipzig but Sturridge was not fully aware of the complete package he brings.

“I love that guy. I’m surprised how good he is actually, if I’m honest. I knew he was good but I don’t watch German football too often,” he told Liverpoolfc.com.

“I haven’t seen a midfielder like him for a while, he is something different. It’s crazy. The things he can do with the ball – he can defend, he can pass, he can dribble, he is fast, he is strong. He has got everything.

“I’m excited to see what he does in the Premier League and the Champions League.

“I sit next to him in the changing room and we have a lot of banter; my French is terrible but I try my best. His English is OK. We share some good times and have a lot of laughs together. I like him a lot, he’s a good guy.”



propaganda but I think there's quite a bit of truth in there.

everything I've seen tells me this lad to very special. nothing has told me he has gaps in his game so far.

 

Only downer was we couldn't get him last season.

One of them what if moments lol.

Can't wait until season starts to see how far this team can go.

 

perhaps it's just you who doesn't know ****

 

Nope..

only the fool would think they are wise and others foolish.

a wise man doesn't realise he is any wiser than the next man, but merely lets the fool exhaust himself

 

yeah but that's a white guy pretending to be Asian for a racist us tv audience in the background so?

 

The older you get, the more you learn. It's how you use what you've learnt that determines whether or not you've gained wisdom.

 

a wise man does not confuse experience and wisdom.

 

You can't have wisdom without experience ...

but you can have experience without wisdom

 

not true.

very small children can be the wisest of all when it comes to asking the right question about how things should be.

the absence of cynicism and wondering well why shouldn't it be this way can be extremely wise.

 

You're mixing small children's 'wisdom' with 'telling the truth'. It isn't always wise to tell the truth.

True wisdom means you also have good judgment. A small child doesn't use any judgment when innocently answering a question. You may say that's a good thing and it is but it isn't an indicator of wisdom. Their world is 'idealistic' and yes it's a shame they get to 'reality' too quickly but the innocence of childhood and wanting things to be a certain way doesn't equate to wisdom.

 

or perhaps old people.just confuse experience with wisdom

 

Experience only brings experience unless you learn along the way.

You can be an old man or a wise old man, depends purely on what you've done with the knowledge gained, lessons learned, judgment calls you've had to make. Whichever one you turn out to be, you had the same experience, the difference is what you did with it.
