  1. So that's a freekick, but hip checking Bailey isn't a foul? Really?
  2. Honestly, how it should be. Possibly not so much punching, but just get up, get on with playing football.
  3. Get the word removed off. He's probably crippled for life.
  4. God, footballers are so **** fragile. I keep forgetting, and I **** hate each and everyone for it.

    That is not for you to deicide for others, as painful as that insight might be for you all. My personal opinion is that it's painfully unfunny, but not much point in me trying to force my tastes onto others. It's just a futile.

    I doubt any PL team has fitness issues. This is usually a symptom of players thinking too much, and not just acting. It becomes hesitant, stuttering and devoid of urgency.

    Possibly, but I wouldn't think that'd mean they actually have to be on the bench to monitor. Still, I don't mind, and it might be one of those 'we're a **** team' things. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. I did notice a woman of about the same age as her in Arsenal squad also being on the bench as well, not sure if she's a physio or also a nutritionist.

    Victoria 3

    If you can get Imperator for that it's a no brainer. I also bought it on sale for a pittance, and I heartily recommend it. Yes, they moved the dev team over to other projects no it's dead in that sense. Viccy 3 is a mixed bag so far. Overall I am having fun, but there are some bugs and warfare is kinda' shit IMO. I think it looks very promising with a decent foundation for the future. I can see myself pausing it a bit after 40 or so hours to wait for some DLC.

    In all honesty, this is kinda' where it's at. Not everyone can be top 6, especially not consistently. However, we have the coming financial apocalypse that might bail us out as football will sort of have to revert back to a much more humble state as those fans that even have any kind of disposable income left will be loath to spend it luxuries such as football. Granted, this might be scuppered by super rich elites that might be able to hold on and push us out of the market completely, but I doubt they will want to spend billions on owning football clubs for prestige.

    If he can turn our next 4 points into 6 he is a **** magician!

    As a hockey goalkeeping coach, a good relationship can built confidence, details can help (hockey goalies occupies one of the most technique intensive position in modern team sports) but mostly it's about the long term work you do. Sure, sometimes you can make small changes that quickly changes stuff, but Martinez isn't at that stage currently I feel like.

    Good points, and let's hope that direction improves under Emery. Also, stop finding good players for rivals, alternatively, let's hope your boss gets the sack.

    Interesting that they have nutritionists on the bench during games. "Get Couts a Snickers, he's being a bit of a diva!"
  16. I think they rush up the table a bit after the WC.
  17. I think the most interesting team in Allsvenskan this year was IFK Värnamo. Tactically very clever, had a clear identity and managed to perform pretty well in relation to the resources at their disposal. Listened to a few pod episodes with their ass man, and it was very enlightening. (TFA Podcast)

    Well, in all honesty they need to get through more proper rough patches before we declare them legit. I think they and Howe are still overperforming and that it will be impossible for them to keep going like this. But we'll see. If he keeps them at it for the rest of the season I'll be impressed, to say the least.
  19. This is great news! As a hockey fan, I know all to well what concussions can do.

    I see. Makes sense and I agree!

    I don't think or suspect, I KNOW. There is no way in hell this squad comes together in a new system in 2.3 games and brings decent performances or consistency. If anyone thinks that you are just setting yourself up for disappointment.

    Errr... he gets what, 2 games? That's generous of you.
