Summer Transfer Shit and Everything Else

[HCZ_Reborn]

However although I’ve already answered your question, I’m happy to do so again

If I don’t respect an argument I’m not going to pretend I do. For example, whilst I agreed with you that Arteta has a knack of falling out with players, I thought your supposed evidence of it happening again because of a ten second clip where he doesn’t shake Trossard’s hand was laughable, now actually I would have left it at that but you were so confounded by the fact that no one really thought it worth bothering to reply to that I thought I’d let you know how ridiculous I found it.

I’ve had plenty of people here mock arguments I’ve made if they think they are silly. Usually I will try and justify why I think they aren’t…but the important thing is I neither know or care about any of you enough to actually worry what you think of me. My only concern is being right/winning an argument.

This idea that we share any camaraderie because we support the same club is a nonsense, as is the idea that I owe you or anyone owes me any respect or even courtesy.


And to pre-empt any come back in the ball park of “what do you get out of being a prick?”. Actually quite a lot, in fact quite the same as what you and others get out of venting. Real life doesn’t afford you the opportunity to be condescending and insulting to exasperating people, I have to keep it to myself when people say things I regard as idiotic….here I don’t have to. Very therapeutic

Haven't some of you got better things to do ?

No-one on here knows exactly what is going on so why spend so much time on it.

Wait and see what happens and enjoy the break from all the football crap that goes on about 10 months of the year.

Well In a way this is kind of what I’ve argued

And yes technically I have something better to do, the job I’m paid to do but this is my escapism from the tedium

WUMing in other words.

Thought as much.

Most likely a spud

Would explain why he never thought we could/should win the league, even before the great collapse.

Saying that we weren’t favourites after 18 games = never thought we should/could win the league

If you’re going to paint a target on your back by making ridiculous statements (like these) I don’t think I can be held responsible for firing arrows at you.

If you were actually retarded it would be just cruel, and whilst the difference between being a retard and being so heavily invested in your own narrative that you get high on your own fumes is subtle, there is a difference.

But if accusing me of being a spurs fan helps you cope, rather than confronting the fact that there’s often a lack of logic or reality to your arguments…and a lot of it boils down to tantrum throwing…well you do you.

Though maybe ask yourself how the fact that City haven’t even bid for Rice yet (it’s only been reported that they will bid and what that bid might be) fits into this idea that other clubs are much more ruthless than we are at conducting transfer negotiations

So - a troll then

Makes sense

Awww you’re dogpiling on me…that really gets me in the feels

No not Trolling, Trolling would suggest that my statements were purely intended to get a response. I consider that at most a fringe benefit. Yes there is the same pathology of online disinhibition involved but the motive is distinctly different.

I don’t get why it’s so hard to understand why if you think someone is being stupid or petulant you shouldn’t just say so?

Trying to find a hidden motivation when I’m openly telling you what I’m doing also seems self defeating

[HCZ_Reborn]

£120m for Rice is insane..makes no sense paying more than £80m for anyone doing his role IMO.

I mean £120m and adding a bit of change we could make teue statement signings like Osimehen, Kvaradona or even Bellingham.

The Hammers obviously don't want to sell and will lose him for change later.

Gosh, I really wish I bothered going back on these threads more
