    Liverpool

    As I've previously stated they were only £12m behind Man City on spending last season. Last season? You sure? I mean, Jovetic vs Aspas?
  2. Where's that old Gary Neville clip when you need it...
  3. Good that England are already out of the WC, I guess.
  4. Chiellini sounds like a very intelligent person.
  5. Wonder if anyone can remember this one:
  6. Boateng's decent at right-back, but Howedes at left-back is just bizarre.
  7. Huh, Klinsmann sings the American anthem.
  8. The English, of all people, should know this well.
  9. But aren't concepts of the self and god a reflection of each other? So a belief in a god has tended to include the idea of a soul as self right up to Descartes' dualism. Freud introduced his tripartite structure of the mind/self and various schools of psychology, from behaviourism to psycho-pharmacology, have taken various views and perspectives, on what amounts to the self. If, as some claim, god is a projection of human qualities (good and bad), which is evidenced by the changing view of god over the ages, can't we say that there seems to be a great deal of equivalency, between our vision of god and our concept of self? Here we go.....I feel so out of my depth.
  10. Don't understand that; could you give a link to the source? Thanks! The GDP of the countries in blue is equal to the GDP of the countries in red. I get it, it shows how the top 5 biggest economies are equal to the rest put together. Like others, I could not understand why the UK was included rather than France, which has a slightly bigger GDP than the UK. Old British map, maybe? See what I mean?
  11. And my point was that the belief that one's own religion should be strictly adhered to to the exclusion of other gods is not quite as prevalent as one might think
  12. If your not reading it that way, why do you assume others might do? Judging by the responses id say it's bang on. edit: That post looks looks a bit arsey, it's not meant to be Because 4 of the other 5 countries that are in blue all happen to be the 4 largest economies in the world. Someone less informed would have extrapolated and come to the conclusion that Britain, not France, is the world's 5th largest economy.
  13. The Abrahmic religions are polytheist. Their God references the presence of other gods on many occasions. mainly in parts of the holy books where the story is lifted from earlier works. Their God clearly believed there were other gods. The Christian God is a triumvirate godhead, because the cult founders needed to try and explain things that weren't adequately covered in the Torah. Oh, no, again, I agree with you, fully. What I'm saying is that the idea that religions are mutually exclusive to each other seems to be a very Abrahamic one (most other religions seem to be quite tolerant in that sense) Shouldn't have used the word "polytheism", it was misleading, in hindsight.
  14. Looks like a fairly easy route to the semis for the Dutch. On paper.
  15. The ban is not to just make him learn to not do it again. It's there to show there are consequences for actions and to let kids who see him as an idol to know you can't go biting people on a football pitch. Fair enough, good point. Although, at this stage, I would also think a lot about how to stop him from doing such batshit stuff again.
  16. Just send him to a psychiatrist, ffs. It's clear that he does it on impulse, logic (i.e. banning him for games in the hope that he will learn) will not work.
  17. Nope, but I think they could perhaps draw the line at criticising his victims... I suppose so, but sometimes you have to be unequivocal in order to be fully convincing.
  18. What do you expect them to do, criticise their best player in public?
