Re: Big Sams first England squad

Against Man City last night Rooney played an excellent game, he was certainly the only ManUre player who gave everything he had all the time he was on the pitch and he created most of their action in front of goal, including their goal. Joe Hart must have had a good laugh at Bravo's display though....

Re: Big Sams first England squad

First squad and promises that everything is going to be different but ends up playing 8 of the 11 that played the last game and we stumble over the line to a boring 1-0 win. Please - I've heard it all before. I didn't see MUCH wrong with the team, it was the tactics in the Euro's that baffled me. N...

I've always seen Rooney's future for England and ManUre as that played so well by Paul Scholes.

They have the same attributes and ability to score from outside the box.
If I were Scholes i'd be offended by that comparison.

Re: Big Sams first England squad

What is it about Rooney?
It's almost seems like mangers feel obliged to play him.
Even Mourinho's using him in the midfield when it's obvious to most he is neutral at best in that role.

Re: Jose outski at Chelski

Although 'The Special One' has had great success at every club he's been at I have some doubts about his true ability. He never stays very long wherever he goes and always goes to big clubs who can afford to buy the players he demands. Both times at Chelski he bought big, won some trophies and then...

Re: Serie A discussion

Napoli were a step above us, it was a very poor performance by Juve. Napoli need to take that form into Europe . More importantly we need to keep taking that form into Serie A. Its difficult to take the Europa League seriously before the semi's & you see the Champions League carrot dangling.

Value of having a world class player, looks like a keeper playing out of his skin will keep a clean sheet but then moment of brilliance opens the game up. 32m bargain, probably best player in the league.
