    Sick sick world what is wrong with people

    Appalling. Many of us here cannot begin to fathom the fear which must be running through the Pakistani and muslim communities. In fact, add the Indian community. People from African nations. Iranians. Sikhs and B'hai's too, because let's face it, the triggered racists doing the bidding of...

    Sick sick world what is wrong with people

    My Mum was avidly into racing all her life. It ran in her family (several horses and always in major races). My set-Dad too, massive fan. Both of them remarked over a decade ago how they were sad to see the likes of Royal Ascot dragged down by the knuckle phalanx.

    Classic Signings - Rafael Van Der Vaart

    It's fascinating to look back even to what Jol did. He soldified us, he brought in experience in Naybet and Davids to train through Ledley and Carrick (I think that's one of the things which made the Carrick departure so much more disappointing, then under Ramos we had a really decent core and...

    Soft first yellow as I recall...second one was silliness for sure.

    Italy has always been interesting in that regard...some players go there and fly, others have a nightmare...I suppose that can apply anywhere, but Serie A seems to be more dramatic in this regard.

    @Bishop ...come on! Did you expect me not think like that hahahahahaha 😂 😂 😂...I did TRY to sprinkle a smidgen of common sense in there hahahaha, but yes, failed miserably!!!

    I do, and it would be a great twist! I am wary of the World Cup jolt, however the guy's been coached by Poch, which gives me faith that what I'm seeing is both real and sticks.

    Classic Signings - Rafael Van Der Vaart

    It's odd how despite all the evidence (and some fun times watching him) I feel the way I do. I think perhaps it is because for me, the player who really made it all happen then was Luka, who allowed VdV to be himself. Again, I am willing to accept my memory might be 'off' or even somehow...

    I felt from the moment I first sw Lankshear he would one day be our 9. What I also think is that he needs one more season on loan -a good lona- and then he hopefully steps in NEXT season when Richy leaves. The bigger question remains as to whether we can upgrade Solanke now. I am trying hard not...

    Classic Signings - Rafael Van Der Vaart

    Those stats certainly do put my memories into perspective...slightly skewed maybe? I suppose I just sigh when I see him in the same list as Hoddle, Gascoigne, Modric, Bale, Kane, Son...I'd put him in the Berba category, and even then I'd take Berba every time...but I have to say, the stats do...

    Classic Signings - Rafael Van Der Vaart

    We didn't win knock-out games. We didn't win the cup semi-final he played in. We didn't win the CL QF we were in. I am not saying it was on him to do so, but he didn't drag us through massive games. Of course the NLD @ emirates was massive. Enjoyable but overrated IMO.

    I think that is fair, however I genuinely believe next season offers us a 'Leicester' chance, but for that, we will need a 20-25 goal striker. A lot of the top 5 will have players deep into the World Cup (we won't), Liverpool are rebuilding, Chelsea are a mess, Emirates Marketing Project are in transition...I...

    i have no expectations whatsoever, only open eyes and a sense of relief that a) I don't know what is going to happen and b) whatever happens we are in the Premier League still I'll say this. I doubt you'll get many people to agree on anything re: playing staff and how to build/not build. It's...

    I would be shocked if that was the case....I think RDZ will raise a few eyebrows with the outgoings this summer...

    I agree. I dont think we have the quality at CF. I agree. However clearly, we are remodelling right now. The midfield is going to be significantly different. We're already seeing that with the defence. Appears to be that way. I think we should be all out for a 9, however, if we cannot get...

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    I think you're referring to degrees of decorum by a personal definition more than anything. Understood. Good stuff :)...maths is not my strong suit, so nice one on the degree!
