  2. I want a refund its 2.47 stream says it starts at 2;45 Bunch of amateurs
  3. I really think Stoke could be in trouble this season Mark Hughes... Haha
  4. I really think Midfield was the weak point last season Teams were just bombing onto our centre halfs they had very little protection until sylla came in I'd still like to see a quality CM come in box to box type player who is creative and can bag a few goals But with us signing Benteke up to a new contract im happy easily the biggest signing of the summer so far
  5. I think im sad going to watch Pacific Rim again
  6. Luther is amazIng Finally british drama that is actually good
  7. I'm surprised the media have given up so easy Surely he's still going to sign for spurs He smiled and everything....
  8. Looking forward to captain jacks commentary hopefully he isnt filming it on his mobile phone
  9. Woke up this morning first of all VICTORY TO THE FANS SCREW THE LONDON MEDIA HE ISN'T GOING SPURS HAHAHA
  10. They are clinging to any glimmer of spurs signing him its quite pathetic Im sure a cloud has been spotted over WHL shaped like Benteke's head in the last 24 hours and everything!
  11. Spurs have no chance of offloading Adebayor what club would want to take that lazy bag of shite
  12. Those things would just split the sides of your mouth open. Can you still buy tip tops i thought this nanny state government would have banned them by now clearly to many bogus E numbers
  13. Well better look forward to some drubbings as this clearly did not work last season
  14. Do Clark and Bennett go to the same barber? Absolutely abysmal
  15. We could probably get Remy for similar money thats being quoted I'd rather have him tbh plus he's already proven that he can score goals in the PL
  16. Is the agent the bloke shaking hands on a transfer to Cafe Nero? His agent was trying to get him to abduct the child so they could sell him on ebay for a tidy profit
  17. Eh? Character wise he brings them to the big screen as if he was pulling them straight out of a comic book Vivid colors but no depth I did not go in expecting oscar winning performances but it was completely adequate for this type of movie it had emotion when it was needed
  18. really? i thought they were horribly cliched and probably the films weakest aspect it was independence day level of bad characters In this kind of movie i think the characters not being portrayed as complex was the correct one it is a film aimed at teens after all Most of Del-Toro's films are the same Idris Elba was stunningly motivating as his Lutheresque self i may patent an Alarm Clock with Elba quotes to help me get out of bed in the morning superb
  19. Pacific Rim where do i start AWESOME/10 I went into the cinema half heartedly desperate not to walk away disappointed I wasn't Everything was quality about this movie the characters were top notch Del Toro is a god My only dislike was there was not enough daytime battles it was very dark My fave part
  20. 'Reckon there's a chance Lambert could talk him around. Not necessarily a good one, but Benteke is easily influenced by others (i.e. his agent), so there's no reason to suggest Lambert couldn't do the same. maybe lock him in a room until 1 September Locking him in a room with Dale Stephens as punishment is beyond harsh its cruel
  21. "Benteke is not the slightest bit like Bent and the only reason people are saying so is because they have similar names and are from the same club. That type of logic is the same type as we deride in journalism with all their lazy logic. 1) Benteke was the fourth leading scorer in the Prem last year behind only Bale, Suarez, and RVP with 19 goals in 34 league appearances, 23 goals in 39 total appearances (50% of Villa's output) and 6 goals in 10 appearances during the 12/13 season as the first choice for the Belgian national team. His success for Belgium squashes the extremely questionable argument about his success only being due to Villa's direct playing style. 2) He is 22 years old and could be a key player for years to come. Through Levy's eyes he could end up having massive sell on value. 3) He is extremely valuable in buildup play. He had 47 key passes in 34 Premier League appearances last year. In terms of true line leading strikers only Suarez, RVP, Lambert, and Tevez had more. This is also playing for a team that spent many games getting dominated in possession. That's also 9 more than Negredo (who had 2 apps than Benteke) and 19 more than Soldado's 28 in 35 appearances. But since they are Spanish they get the benefit of the doubt. Does that sound like Darren Bent to you? 4) He is an absolute beast in the air winning almost 8 aerial duels a game. Think about how awful some of our set pieces were and how many great crosses went begging because of how poor Defoe and Adebayor are in the air. Having a guy like Benteke makes Bale, Lennon, Walker, BAE, Siggy and whoever else can hit a cross that much more dangerous. 5) He is a massive and elite athlete that is tailored perfectly to being a line leading number 9. Bottom line is that the striker market is massively inflated. You're either buying an unproven player from a lower league Bony (12m), Altidore (12m), Van Wolfswinfel (10m), the quoted 20m+ for Damaio, and there are plenty more examples. Or the alternative is spending huge on proven players like Torres, Carroll, Tevez, Aguero, Suarez, Higuan, Jovetic, etc. In addition all these guys want massive wages with the big transfer fee. In Benteke you have an extremely well rounded center forward who is 22 years old and was a top 5 scorer in the league. His fee is high but not nearly as high as the top level guys. If he replicates his form of last season his value could double. Plus, he will want sensible wages around 60 or 70k unlike the probably 120k that David Villa wanted. Scoop Benteke up as quick as possible IMO. He's the best possible striker out there for us and I think the combination of stats, age, and price back that up" A spurs fan talking sense.... Shocker
  22. Well they better hurry up or they could get gazumped They can't keep scratching down the back of the sofa for money for to long
  23. I still think the likes of Man City or Liverpool with the Suarez cash could come in for him Time will tell
