I'd take Khedira over both though.

by **Afro** Fri 18 Jul 2014, 10:30 am

Can't agree with that. I'd still have Schwein over Khedira.

I'd take Matthaus over all three.

by FIFA Diva Fri 18 Jul 2014, 10:36 am

Khedira will always come second to Schweinsteiger and Ballack.

Matthaus best was before my time but I remember him in the 99 final smug bastard thought he'd won it after he got subbed off.

by Holymiky Fri 18 Jul 2014, 10:38 am

Interesting.

Afro I think you would be great in a defensive midfield role, let's make it happen. Let's get in contact with Everton.

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 10:40 am

Today is the last day to sign players to play this week

Miky, if you make that happen I will give you all my good players in swap for your rubbish ones.

And love you forever.

I think these days I might be more in the Jan Molby role where I don't have to run around very much

by **Hero** Fri 18 Jul 2014, 10:54 am

The only role Molby is into nowadays is the sausage one.

by FIFA Diva Fri 18 Jul 2014, 10:55 am

Do you even ball Afro?

Who's watching or already watched Planet Of The Apes? I'm watching it tonight, it's going to be brilliant, I urge everyone here to watch it at least once.

by Holymiky Fri 18 Jul 2014, 10:59 am

Afro I meant it as a compliment by the way, just to confirm

What about a NSL first 11 who would be in it and what position? This could be fun.

by Fernando Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:04 am

Well this can only end badly. Cue a rise in price on players in the XI Laugh

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:04 am

Assuming a 4-2-3-1 Formation, rating wise

Valencia

Sterling-Lallana-Januzaj

?-?

?-De Vrij-Terry-?

Buffon

by **Hero** Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:08 am

I'm not getting the fuss on Valencia at all.

by Holymiky Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:09 am

I actually meant out of the managers lol sorry, but that's cool too.

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:09 am

Meh, tbh nobody sprang to mind up front and he just moved for 15m.

by **Afro** Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:19 am

*cough* I think Vlaar proved in the world cup he was better than de Vrij Wink

Mine, only from players who aren't mine:

Navas
Aurier--Terry---?---Shaw
Pirlo---Lallana
Perisic---Sterling----Markovic
?

I was useless at football, was centre back on the team but purely down to being 6ft 2 and not being afraid to stick my foot out.

Opta wise De Vrij made the World Cup team.
BBC wise Giancarlo Gonzalez was in ahead of both...

by FIFA Diva Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:21 am

What position do you play Miky?

I know Olly would be our keeper as he plays in goals, before my career ending knee injury I was a ball winning centre half with underrated ball retention skills, despite my 5'9 height I could contest with 6ft plus players in the air, I wasn't the quickest but my reading of the game meant I was very rarely found wanting in those situations. I was brave as lion and strong as an on, I've been robbed of my prime.

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:23 am

While I do appreciate not having to remake homepages, I kinda need to have the opening post for OP updating purposes.

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:24 am

Or make me admin of this section again Wink

by Fernando Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:24 am

Well this is cringeworthy

My favorite review so far is: I tried to buy this in Waterstones but it was raining outside and I slipped. Whilst I was recovering Demba Ba nipped in and got the last copy.

You mean that system that Big Same lives by, that measures how far you run, how many passes sideways you deliver.

I'll stick with my eyes and what I've seen Ok!

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:27 am

Azzy

?-Miky-?

Afro-?

?-Trebs-Viva-?

Hero

Azzy up front because he'd be Muller/Tevez style annoying to play against, and he needs to be far away from Viva to concentrate on the game

Miky would ghost into the gap between the midfield and defense

Afro laying down the law in CM, and also getting between Azzy and Viva.

Trebs and Viva have shown a strong partnership in defending anything United related, which is why hero plays in goal.

by **Afro** Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:29 am

What is Ray Houghton's favourite quote about Opta?

Something about stats measuring distance travelled, when sometimes the best option is to stand still

by Holymiky Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:30 am

I used to play left and right back for my Sunday league team Viva and I was sometimes moved forward into midfield on the left or right and I was okay at it I think.

I like that setup GSC. I like my role.

by sodhat Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:33 am

I'd have Azzy on the right wing

The very very far right wing

by sodhat Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:47 am

This plane thing is a bit of a playground argument isn't it?

Ukraine: You did it!
Russia: No we didn't, you did!

I'm not flying Malaysian in my lifetime, but then by look of it I couldn't fly it next week if I wanted to. They be going down faster than Olly's mum.

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:47 am

Why would you send a plane over that airspace at present anyway

by sodhat Fri 18 Jul 2014, 11:53 am

You'd expect people to have some discretion regarding what they blow up in the sky, but clearly they don't.

It probably should have been a no fly zone though. More tragic because it was so avoidable.

I think we will never find out, but I suspect shoot down a plane full of civilians and blame the other side to make them look bad

I think the aviation authorities had declared it a safe route too

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 12:06 pm

In honour of Mikys question, we'll have a NSL XI themed sheep.

Sheep answers sent.

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 1:50 pm

Anymore for Sheep. With only 4 entries its not really worth it.

by sodhat Fri 18 Jul 2014, 1:54 pm

Eh, just post the teams I guess. I'm not sure activity will pick up with all the busy bods today.

I've got a University professor coming to my office soon. Reckon she'll bring any hot 19 year old students? I'm not sure I'm that lucky.

by cherriesfna Fri 18 Jul 2014, 2:08 pm

I thought women professors were like women bishops - not allowed?

by FIFA Diva Fri 18 Jul 2014, 3:03 pm

maybe

by GSC Fri 18 Jul 2014, 3:04 pm

10 minutes and I'll do sheep answers then
