  1. "Jaw-res Okour-eh" it is. Pronounced by the man himself at 0:27.
  2. I've heard danish people pronounce it as both "johres okoureh" and "djoures okoureh". That would be either "your-es" or "jaw-res" phonetically, but rather "okour-eh" than okour-ay. Ay would be a british twist on it I think.
  3. Relax, it's just a phase, it will pass like everything else. Believe it or not, in the 50's they used to create artificial colorfree environments just to snap photos
  4. More fun to give credits to turnbull than google, though I thought it was just the Luna part that was translated to Moon, anyway? Not Antonio to Tony?
  5. Earliest reference to the name I could find... on page 15. Turnbull is the man! Now go bomb that post with likes.
  6. Funny that this is mentioned. I actually dreamt that I was chatting with Lambert about this last night According to "him" his tactic was to find players that lacked one crucial thing in their game. His thinking was that they would appear as "not good enough" to others and that they would not see what kind of player they could become with that one ability. Because of this he could get his targets at good prices and would then train them hard on that one thing until they showed their true class. Benteke: Finishing. Luna: Positioning etc.
  7. That won't happen. Real Sociedad is a tough club when selling players formed in Zubieta (their academy). They always sign high buyout clauses as Illarramendi (€30m to Real). Last season Real was also interested on him and they ask Pardo's buyouy clause: €30m. Ok, thanks for the info. Makes more sense of his nickname "Pearl of Zubieta" as well. Alright, not within our reach then. I was thinking he'd might be a £6-10m player at this point and probably would double in price after this season.
  8. Only ones I listen to is the people that runs the MOMS website, they seem to have some contacts within the club. Called Okore and Tonev long before the rest, tlked about a young Norwich keeper since start of june ++ . Even made a bet with a certain nurnberg hating twitter user on whether we were after Belhanda or not (when that was her hot topic), loser was supposed to delete twitter account
  9. My 4 year old has been walking around singing "tony, tony mooooon, tony, tony mooooooon..." ever since his father went somewhat berserk in front of the telly earlier today It was like some kind of glitch in the matrix though, couldn't make out (comprehend) who it was until I saw him running towards the fans.
  10. Think Pardo from Real Sociedad will become a household name within short time. Excellent player + probably last summer we could realistically get him before Real or Barca snap him up. We haven't been linked with him or anything, just hoping in the longest that we're looking to team up a another spaniard with Luna. Or that Lambert have seen the lad play
  11. Can confirm that this site will experience more than one sign in before the deadline.
  12. Hey, that's unfair! You're talking about the genius that invented the bicycle kick here... We had some good times with deadly.
  13. Really cool vid, man. Thank you for taking the time to make it !
  14. Have you heard the news? Heee's playing today I want to see him score a goal Dwight Yorke, Dwight Yooorke. Loved that guy, my biggest idol as a young lad. Dean Saunders as well, before that. But yeah, agree with you. Would also add Merson, Milner & (maybe) Carbone though.
  15. Oh well, on to the next unknown...
  16. Haha, no worries... I was actually not aware that such a thing existed. I've just not bothered to look at anything else when travelling with mates. ...and thanks
  17. Not exactly the topic, but close... When i've been over at VP i've always stood with the Holte (ahhh, that stairway to heaven!). Was thinking of taking my son/family over when he gets a bit older (he's villa mad already, at age of 4), but thinking that the holte might not be the best place for him/them. I guess trinity or witton would be the place to sit? Are there any particular areas in those ends that are considered a bit more family friendly? We're norwegian and there is still a while until he learns english, so what ever that is being shouted around us won't be a problem, but you know, would prefer a little bit of a "softer" atmosphere. Any suggestions?
  18. Aaaahh heeeeeeeeeeeee eeeey It's Jores Okore And repeat to the tune of Sex is on fire by Kings of Leon
  19. Ooooh-OoOoooOoh ALEK-SANDER TONEV Call him goalev He's 'bout to smash one in To the tune of money, money, money by abba. Not many things rhymes with tonev, feel free to change last two lines
  20. Chant anthem? Can there be any doubt? A group of swedish timetravellers planted it in the timeline for him back in 1979. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=za05HBtGsgU
  21. Well, he does with Argentina at times. Been critized a lot for that by both press and fans. But the point isn't Messi here. The point is that a great player wouldn't necessarily set the world alight in a poor team. He might appear as a bit on & off (due to the team he plays for, not his potential or quality).
  22. I was just thinking though... Put Messi in Hull or Crystal Palace. Wouldn't he also appear as a bit on and off don't you think? Superb when on, but would go missing. Due to team he plays for that is (the way the play, how much they can risk when going forward, how OFTEN they actually do etc.), not how good he is. Not saying that young Ryad is the new Messi, but talking about the principle. Sochaux is fighting relegation every season. (not sure if principle is the right world, but you get it)
  23. Can play AM / CM & RW. Inter, Liverpool & Southampton was linked to him earlier this summer. Looks AMAZING on youtube. Souchaux fans says that he is a bit on and off. Superb when on, but often goes missing.
