Is managers sitting in the stand an English thing? Redknapp (from time to time), McLaren and Pearson all do it, never really seen it from many foreign managers.

You saying Shaw didn't have an end product

I mean I know you run the hate train on everybody who left Southampton but come on
Tbf it's statistically true that Shaw doesn't have much end product yet. One assist all last season iirc. He is however, a solid defender.

Evra scored a lot of goals for a fullback in his last two seasons for us but he was frequently one of our worst performers. End product for a fullback is a bonus but not a pre-requisite.

That could be true. But I feel like he was great going forward for them too, created chances in attack
 
Shadow of Mordor is the brownest game I've ever seen. Shame they constrained their own art direction by setting it entirely there. Not sure how they could have made it work as an open world though if it was set elsewhere as well, since the entire area surrounding Mordor is similarly sparse iirc

I miss Evra. Oppo fans absolutely hated him and he revelled in it. He was an awful defender though and frequently looked like he couldn't be bothered to track back.

Juve's problem now.

It looked alright from what I saw earlier
Shame I hate Lord of the Rings though.

Yeah rojo was OK today at CB. These are so early days, will take time to gel and we have so many injuries. Expecting some very tough times with Everton, Chelsea and city games coming up but I really expect us to look much, much better after Xmas.

Top of the Footy GAF fantasy football and 137th in England.

Dat Jedinak.

Let's just call it a day. And I mean that broadly.

Must be nice for Man Utd GAF at the mo. No Young sighting in the starting XI for while now. :p

Also the formation we are playing right now doesn't fit him and Valencia. Barring any injury or red card requiring us to change formation, he won't be getting any game time. Shaw, Rojo and Blind are better LB, Di Maria is a better winger and midfielder than he can ever hope to be, so too does Adnan. So yeah, I am really happy he is out.

He and players like Fletcher, Reece etc pretty much trolled us in preseason; putting up nice displays only to show their true colours once the league started proper.

GoT spoilers being dropped casually in the Kit Harrington thread.

:lol

Be furious, me. Fortunately I'm like the rest of us waiting for the next one to come out in 2018. Fuck it, might read those released WoW chapters. Have you read em? Are they good?

Either they really have shit youth or Zidane is really shit coach. Most likely both.

Bordeaux dodged a bullet.

Lol. Maradona 2.0.

They're pretty good. The best one by far is the one for
a certain character in Braavos
. That one might be one of his best chapters actually, although it might just be symptoms of withdrawal.
 
But the home faithful were soon celebrating when Flamini steered the ball across Tottenham's box, where Welbeck failed to turn home but Oxlade-Chamberlain did so emphatically - meaning the visitors' winless Premier League run extended to four matches.

I see critics still refuse to accept Welbeck's GOAT dummy.

They'll see and appreciate his genius soon.

Starting A Clash of Kings now, just finished doctor who and now I'm off to bed

I'm really annoyed because I ordered all the books and they've all come with the original covers apart from a feast for crows which has come with the tv tie in cover and the visual consistency is all off now

FUMING

Seems pretty obvious now that Brendan bought Lovren to replace Sakho.

Got over the result today, it'll take a while to get over long black legs ;_;
