big sam wasnt my first choice as manager, but when he was appointed, i figured joey barton would be the kind of player he could turn around. now crazy joe looks like he could be the last straw. would not be surprised if sam gets the ax in the next month or two. of course the first two reasons are tactics and team selection…
On the Eve of the new Season...
Barton is your typical scouse scumbag….and always will be. I bet they have a security guard in the locker room and safe to lock up the other players wallets and watches with that scouse twat around.
Remanded in custody over the new year weekend…..it's classic, just classic and couldn't have happened to a more deserving dirtball.
As for Big Sam - Bolton was about his limit in my opinion. He coaches just ugly bully boy football, and that will only ever get a team mid-table.

haha, you love the scouse
but seriously, what kind of professional gets into a fight at 5 AM in a mcdonalds during in the midst of the busy holiday fixture list. so fucking stupid. i mean, stay away from the big macs at least ;)
the 4-3-3 relies on the middle striker heavily and that's fine if they can score (which smith doesnt excell at) and run (which dukes can't). oba isnt great as a wide man, and mike is completely wasted out there. the players that should benefit are zogs and jimmy mils, but somehow they both play out of position
the point total is mediocre, but the effort and tactics give little hope that sam, you know, knows what he's doing. cant believe that another manager will be sacked, but its not hard to see it happening

i'd take him in a second, but he'd never do it
i guess i could make myself feel better that sam wasnt hired by ashley, but its only a small consolation

Cheers to West Ham!!
Wasn't part of Moreno's settlement with Chelsea that he could not manage in the EPL for a certain number of years?
And why is there no talk about how Hodgson will take my Fulham triumphantly above relegation?

for this season only. manc was only half serious i believe, he'd never go to newcastle (or anywhere else in england) when he has milan, madrid and barca interested
its to early for relegation/nonrelgation talk…unless youre the rams
i was so mad after the kalou noncall that i ran errands rather than watch the everton/arsenal match live :mad:

BTW - what am I missing with Anelka? To me he's another Gerrard, a good player on a team of average players, but nothing special.
whether or not anelka is great or not isnt as important to me as his age (28). seems like way too much for a player with only a few years left
