  1. Yeah, I think Olof signed a pre-contract agreement with Juventus in January 2008, about the same time as Cahill was let go. It was Curtis Davies keeping Cahill out of the side at the time cos Mellberg was at right back, and I think Davies suffered a pretty bad injury shortly after... leaving us with Zat Knight to partner Laursen. Urgh. In fairness to MON, Cahill said he wanted a guaranteed starting spot or he was leaving, and I don't remember the 2007/08 version of Cahill being good enough to deserve that. Then again, neither were Davies & Knight, so....
  2. I really feel he needs to communicate a bit more ambiguously with extensive emojis.
  3. Eric Dier taking out Ramos is a thing of beauty

    I did it once twenty years ago and it was so indescribably awesome that I've made sure to stay away from it for the rest of my life... or at least until I'm so old it won't matter!
  5. Yeah, won the league with Chennaiyin last season. Pretty short seasons over there, I can't imagine he was commuting!
  6. Eh? So this is going to be an almost immeasurably tiny bit better than MON's tenure? Like same points, one less goal conceded or something? ?
  7. Not quite sure if I'll remember him fondly or not to be honest... but I'll definitely remember him! Travel on well Doug.
  8. The correct analogy would be "It's like Eddie Howe wanting to manage Man Utd"
  9. I know of another great candidate - excellent centre back with 400+ caps for Man Utd, captained the club too... and currently available. Should be able to really sort out a defence! ?
  10. At least it's clear from the start what this is... it's not a Roy Evans/Houllier scenario. Actually I think Smith would have been pleased with Terry - someone who knows the club and the squad, he'll get some valuable insights to help him hit the ground running.
  11. Not my first choice... but far from my last, and I'm relieved we've at least not gone down the road of Moyes/McCarthy/Pardew etc. Think Terry is a good move. Nice to have a Villa fan in charge. Best of luck Dean.
  12. No, the problem is the word pre-order! Not the concept of requesting something in advance, or to put it another way... ordering it.
  13. "Dropped" does my head in. See also "pre-order"
  14. To continue in this vein - and most definitely qualifying as something that pisses me off... Strawberries and raspberries are apparently not berries, they're "aggregate fruit". And yet, the following are classified as berries: bananas, avocado, tomato, pumpkin, watermelon, kiwi fruit. This really grind my gears. Way more than it should.
  15. Getting the impression that he's not the messiah... he's a very naughty boy. <grabs coat>
  16. Man, that hand ball against Ireland still really hurts you doesn't it? ?
  17. Or to spin it another way, the closest a Liverpool manager has come to winning the league title since Dalglish in 1990.
  18. I like the orchestral sounds on the intro to the track - they've got a real vintage 60s/70s sound to them. Shame they appear less and less as the song goes on.
