good to see Thierry the Gawd get to play some more 
 
David Moyes is the new manager of Real Socidad :eek :lol

Congrats to him, but this is an odd move for both parties.

:eek I guess they're looking for stability on a budget. Moyes will get them into 8-10th place every season :lol

Strange move though, I can't see how his tactics will fare in La Liga.

I guess Pardew picking up 4 wins on the trot killed any ideas of Mike Ashley firing him.
 
There's a report this morning that Yedlin got his Latvian passport and will join Spurs in January.

NBC showed Klinsmann at WHL (watching Cameron, I guess)...dude probably like "Hmmm...maybe Yedlin would be better off in Seattle." :lol
 
Levy needs to "conveniently" bump into Klinsmann in the tea room at half time and tap him up for the manager's position.
 
Getting ridiculous now, can't even put the simplest of passes together.

I don't know what is happening on the training ground, but instead of doing crossbar challenges all day... how about concentrating on the basics like simple ball control and one touch passing, the kind of stuff you learn to do at schoolboy level.

Edit: Chadli pulls one back.

Watching what I think is a rebroadcast of Juve vs Parma... That Tevez goal... :x :eek :hat

Ray Hudson said Italy hasn't seen someone slalom like that since Alberto Tomba. Used defenders like markers/ski flags... Hudson said Tevez was cooler than James Bond in a white tux... :lol

Edit - The Nike kits for Juve in their last year are really nice.

The amount of red cards this season

 ...pretty sure that's every one of our defenders plus the keeper that has got at least one now...

Ledley never got a red his entire career.

That's what happens when you're constantly stretched, out of position and have no communication ...basics.
 
@HEGGSY my man....what's really going on over there? I know one win can take you right out of that danger zone...but when I see Burnley, Newcastle, Swansea, West Brom and Southampton, I feel like Lester could have nicked 3 points somewhere in there.

I guess with Blunderland, QPR, and Villa somewhere in your next 6, that much needed W could come up...

DOWN WITH THE BURNLEY WE'RE GOING DOWN WITH THE BURNLEY DOWN WITH THE BURNLEYYYYYY!! :lol

Basically as of right now, Pearson believes our best set up is a 4-1-2-1-2 diamond with no wingers, wide CMs in their place, they're 4 very able passers of the ball, but it doesn't work. There's no creativity, no width, no pace. Nothing. And he continues to stick with it.

We have Mahrez and Knockaert, two very very good creative wingers with pace, but they can't get a look in. It's frustrating. It really is, don't get me wrong I love Pearson, he's the one who got us here and he should get his time, I just wish he'd wake up and realise that the team he believes to be are best XI, is absolutely nowhere near.

To go from beating United from 3-1 down, to getting one point against fellow relegation candidates since then, is frustrating as hell.

Its a bit crazy to try winning in the prem with no width or pace. I'm going to have to watch a few more of their games to have a gander at what's really going on over there, cause they started pretty strong. I thought for sure it would be QPR, Palace and Burnley going down...and Lester would juuuuuust get by, it's a bit of a shocker for me to see them straddling that relegation drop zone.

:lol @ Tim Howard's cheeky attempt to protect the ball... His defender dropped the ball back to him & the opposing player ran at him. He dropped & used his side to protect the ball. Sunderland wanted a hand ball but it wasn't...
