Pre Season Friendlies Thread

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bigger fan of this than going to Chelsea. :sick:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Monaco 5-1 Spuds, Obadi! :haha:

[Cripps_orig]

There is that I guess

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Clarke Carlisle just criticised Oligarch owners on live TV. I doubt he'll be commentating ever again. :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lloris saves to deny Falcao his hat-trick.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Monaco 5-2 Spuds, Townsend.

5-2 again. :lol:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

I'd 5-2 be a Spurs fan.


Close enough.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Brilliant from Falcao.

Monaco 5-2 Spuds, FT.

Spuds. :haha:

Three 5-2 defeats in three different seasons. :bow:

[GP]

Embarrassed by a newly promoted side :haha:

Clarke Carlisle just criticised Oligarch owners on live TV. I doubt he'll be commentating ever again. :rose:

Good.

I can't decide who's worse; him or Owen. When you're actually pining for Lawro, you know it's not much of a choice.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good.

I can't decide who's worse; him or Owen. When you're actually pining for Lawro, you know it's not much of a choice.

Pining for Lawro. WTF?

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Pining for Lawro. WTF?
Yes. Erm.

I didn't mean pining, did I.

Bugger.

[Cripps_orig]

Spuds :haha:

As bad as things are with us, we can always count on them to cheer us up

[Özil's Panoramic View]

5pur2. :haha:

[ENSKIED]

Yes. Erm.

I didn't mean pining, did I.

Bugger.

Why "pining" ergo defined as "Miss and long for the return of" is valid in establishing a mixture of irony and facetiousness which I guess was your intent :cheer:

[Cripps_orig]

AC Milan 0-2 Chelsea

De Bruyne and Schurrle

They face Real Madrid in the final

[Master Splinter]

United drawing 1-1 with some Swedish part-timers.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Valerenga 1-2 Liverpool, currently. Alberto and Aspas for Liverpool.

Their cleansheet run came to an end with Gonzalez's goal. :rose:

Marcelo, Ronaldo 2

Ramires equalising for Chelsea before best natural player in the world took over

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mourinho. :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Mourinho. :haha:

To be fair he hasn't had time to refurbish his bus yet.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He can't seriously hope to Big Man the defence again with the current version of Big Man hobbling around.

[Nayan]

pre season friendlies = shit

dont bother

[GP]

Utd lost again :haha:

[LDG]

Utd lost again :haha:

:lol:

Oh well, at least Fabregas is on his way.

[GP]

Moyes is SO far out of his depth.

I hope he stays there forever.

[LDG]

Shirley they'll give him fergie time?

[Niall_Quinn]

Moyes is turning out to be a lot worse than I'd hoped. I knew he was shit but we don't want him to be so bad Utd will sack him and get a proper manager.

[Master Splinter]

Shirley they'll give him fergie time?

I expect United to be less cut-throat than Chelsea, but in this day and age, he'll need results fairly quickly. Especially if Citeh become a more powerful and consistent force under Peller Greeny.

And don't call me Fergie.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lost 1-3 to a side that just sold Jesus Navas and Negredo. :lol:

[Cripps_orig]

Rio Ferdinands testimonial as well :lol:

Rio :pal:

Moyes :haha:

He'll be gone by Xmas. Fergie to return and win the title

Ah so no for me then.

[Master Splinter]

Michael Owen's horrendous monotone voice hurts my ears.

[Niall_Quinn]

Michael Owen's horrendous monotone voice hurts my ears.

He'll be dropped because joking aside he forces you to turn the sound off which means advertising will suffer.

[GP]

BT had an opportunity to stake a decent claim but they've fucked it up with their god awful lineup.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Spuds 1-0 Espanyol, Soldado pelanty.

Henderson goes for the goal, rather than put it across goal. Saved.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stokes. :bow:

Arsenal legend.

[Munchies]

Good penalty by Soldado

[Munchies]

Stokes. :bow:

Arsenal legend.

Should have kept him, better than Bendnter who we still have ffs

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How has Sturridge missed that? :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Should have kept him, better than Bendnter who we still have ffs

A bowl of prunes is better than Bendtner tbf.

[Marc Overmars]

I remember when Stokes scored about a million goals during his loan spell in Scotland and some wanted him here.

Those were desperate times though, with Baptista and Aliadiere as the only alternatives.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ibe is mini-Sturridge. No idea where that one ended up.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Four added minutes for Celtic - Liverpool.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Ibe is mini-Sturridge. No idea where that one ended up.

I take it that isn't a compliment?

Also, in the same period (ie last two seasons) Suarez and Aguero's [league or otherwise] scoring record is almost identical.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kolo. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I take it that isn't a compliment?

Also, in the same period (ie last two seasons) Suarez and Aguero's [league or otherwise] scoring record is almost identical.

Er, well it could be a compliment I suppose, Sturridge should be a lot better than he usually is.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Celtic 1-0 Liverpool, FT. :lol:

Why would Suarez leave? :ninja:

[Master Splinter]

Liverpool :haha:.

[GP]
