I'd never usually laugh at a players' severe misfortune in terms of bad injuries but with Wilshere I'll always make an exception. Him and Charlie Adam I wouldn't care less if they got career ending injuries. Sounds really bad but I can't help but feel that way, think they're scum.

Looks like the English Abou Diaby will be out for about 2 months if reports are true.

I, on the other hand, am always genuinely sad when I hear Wilshire has been injured, because it means another great run for Arsenal.

The footballing genius that is Arsene Wenger has never been able to work out that putting Wilshire in the lineup makes his team drop points--as does shunting Cazorla, who is class, outside, so that Ozil, who goes missing at the key moment, can play in the center.

They seem to have started playing Cazorla deep - alongside Coquelin. Equally a waste in my opinion. Then he seems to want to play Ramsey out wide, where he is a fish out of water.

The BBC just aired a documentary exposing the lies told to the British taxpayer about the Spammers and the White Elephant.

Maybe they should've thought of doing that five years ago, rather than regurgitating the constant stream of bullshit that Seb Coent and Karrunt Brady were spewing as if it were fact?
 
Well at least we know why the UK has a shortage of black printer ink.
The LLDC have cornered the market for all the redacted copies of
the commercial T+Cs that may have to be printed.
 
"Currently 2-1 down after going ahead."

I want them to get into the group stages.

Given how it has seriously damaged non top 6 regulars in the following
PL season, I suspect some "Cosmic Jokers" have decided this is the way to ensure
they start the 2016-17 season in the league below.
 
Southampton batter Chelsea Arnhem 5-0, while Super Bilic crashes out to Vauxhall Astra.
Good job they got rid of ****ty old Allardyce, eh?
 
They prioritised the Arsenal game!
WTF for is anyones guess...they are going to get battered on Sunday no matter what team they put out so they'd have been far better sending a full team out tonight ... guessBilic is certain that they could not cope with and additional 8 games between now and December. If he takes the same attitude to domestic cup matches the last season at Upton Park could well be a long drawn out affair...a bit like death from TB <laugh>
 
Well done West Ham, you gave it a good go against a top side and deserve a lot of credit for going 90 minutes without getting anyone sent off.

<applause>

I see the West Ham fans are dimissing the result because they played the "kids"(Nolan?). If you can't beat some midtable Romanian side then there are no valid excuses even if you sent the under 16s. Academy of Football my arse.

Those extra games could mean they don't at best get a draw in their cup final on Nov 22.
 
I've posted a thread up on the West Ham board, as I noticed that none of their lot had bothered to do so. I've offered some words of consolation, which I'm hoping the Spanners will take in good heart.
 
...the constant stream of bullshit that Seb Coent and Karrunt Brady were spewing as if it were fact...

I think Coe and Brady should be forced to appear before a committee to explain the bullshit they spouted, at that time, and to offer an apology to the general public for their appalling lies. Also, Coe should be stripped of his title, and forced to resign from whatever quangos he has leeched himself onto.
 
Mourinho and Pellegrini have signed new contracts. Definitely didn't see the latter happening.
