NOW TO SPEND SOME FUCKING MONEY.

Yeah what happens if Mertesacker is injured/sent off on Saturday?

 

[The Liberal Media]

I heard Villa were robbed? Ivanovic should of been sent off, and then scored an offside goal, and Villa denied a late penalty?

They certainly should have had a pen for the Terry handball

Then again we could/should have been up 3-0 at halftime, the first 30 minutes were sublime . Just as good as the Hull game. Jose says we will improve and play at that tempo once the players get upto "His level of fitness"

The early season games will always be tricky as cos of the supercup we have 4 in 12 days. 2 Down now and Jose can mix and match a bit for Man United and Bayern and then its onto the nitty gritty of winning and settling on a team

But we dont talk about that, only that Mourinho is a legend. %) Only UTD get lucky chances going there way.

1-0 Atletico, by the only David Villa Heh, sold him to AM for like 3m euroes. So they could get first dabs on some 18yr old called oliver torres

Nice I love that stadium as well far better than the corporate home of ReaL , Forza Atletico The team for the people of Madrid for sure .

Oliver wouldn't happen to play as a striker & be the next el Nino by any chance ?

I hope not !

Reports from Erik Lamelas (Roma) brother is that he will be going to spurs... wow. Some team they are building (buying), apparently around the 25-30m mark, that will take them around 100m spending now, I guess softens the blow of Bale. Next season going to be interesting..

 

[brimz]

Still got it i see . He was a steal @ that price .

 

[The Liberal Media]

Villa is still quality.
Another that Arsenal let get away . lol

http://www1.skysports.com/football/...how-atletico-signed-david-villa-for-23m-euros

"Guillem Balague has revealed how Arsenal missed out on signing Spanish international David Villa for potentially as little as 2.3m euros."
Balague told Revista that Arsenal tried to sign the player in January but failed to follow up that interest when Barcelona were eager to offload the forward this summer.
And this, Balague suspects, was what deterred Arsene Wenger from making another bid for the player.

"In January Arsenal came and offered a four-year deal, about 20m euros, and some money for Barcelona. Barcelona said they were not selling," Balague told Revista.

"So I think that David Villa, who took his kids to a British school, expected Arsenal to come back but they didn't, because they saw that David Villa in the last six months was not happy and wasn't playing well, and they probably thought he is not what he was.

"Atletico Madrid came in and they got a deal for 2.5m euros - that is all for the first year. If he stays for three years it is 4.6m euros. Why so cheap? I found out that Barcelona have a first option on [18-year-old Atletico midfielder] Oliver Torres.

Villa is class . I saw him when he was at Valencia @ The Mestalla scored two n got sent off in a 4-1 win . Silva provided one of the assists.

 

[The Liberal Media]

Jose back to his best

 

[pinkpapaver]

I was just coming in with a a "fuck you mourinho" nice one for the context. WE WAS ROBBED

 

[The Liberal Media]

Cracking goal from Townsend

Starting to worry now about how good Spurs might be in a years time

Aye, certainly more restrained and mature now. I thought it was a good compliment towards Lambert.
Villa were good last night. Certainly no relegation fight this year, could/should push for a top 7 finish
Didnt think the so called elbow was one though, from what I saw he just had his arm round his front . Didnt actually see his elbow hot him anywhere. Your not supposed to lead of course but that doesnt mean it should have been a red

 

[StoneHappyMonday]

Wtf is happening with Anelka? One game and he's off? Odd.

 

[The Liberal Media]

One of His agents died yesterday
So he asked for compassionate leave

Spurs are playing a pub team here but still look impressive

SSN reporting Chelsea to gazump Spurs for Willian !!
Wher the hell would he play? Unless Moses is off and he would be happy with rotating with Mata/Hazard/Oscar/De Bruyne ?

Would be a hell of a signing if we got him, the price would be good as well as we offered £29 million to Shakhtar for him last year and now to get him for basically the same price

 

[Mendo_K]

"Play acting"? got an elbow across his face didnt he? or am I missing something..



Anelkas brother is also his agent.. not sure how many he has though.

Btw thats the official video from WBA ^ aha

 

[The Liberal Media]

Ivans hit his neck as you can clearly see in the clip, Benteke has then fallen grabbing his face
Its not as bad as Rivaldo in the world cup V china but its something I have come to expect from modern footballers

 

[The Liberal Media]

Christian Erikson has just turned down a move to Zenit.
I know he wants CL football , Arsenal could do a lot worse. Especially with Arteta injured
Question is will Arsenal spend ?
