Don't know too much about it but congrats WJD. Got my education from the school of hard knocks, plus I fell into a career by accident.

Good luck on tests!


Why would anyone use that terrible eye cancer causing black theme in the first place?

Black theme is best theme, need to expand that German horizon. Although the gif does need fixed despite being amazing.

Uncle Woy is doing his best lads. Keep the faith.

Oh god, he probably is as well.



Enjoyed a lovely walk by the Thames today, great weather. Girls in London as per usual wearing the skimpiest outfit possible if there is the slightest hint of sun.
 
Hazard should be ready

Hazard, 23, has been in fine form for Chelsea this season, scoring 14 goals to lead the Blues to the top of the Premier League and leading to Jose Mourinho describing the Belgium international as "the best young player in the world."

Real Madrid forward Ronaldo beat Messi to the Ballon d’Or in January, but Hazard is determined reach their level -- and is confident his manager's aggressive approach will help him achieve his goal.

"It was nice of [Mourinho] to say that, but the important thing is that I'm always testing myself and always challenging myself to do better," he said.

"It is also good that Mourinho is always in my face, telling me what he thinks, whether it is good or bad. That really keeps you on your toes as a player and is good for my progression.

"I would like to be considered the best in the world, but there is a gap at the moment. What do I have to do to close it? Score goals, go past players, pass the ball. Basically the same as now, only two times better.

"I have to excel at the highest level week in week out, but I cannot claim to be doing that yet. I think I have proved myself in the Premier League, but I have to do the same in the Champions League.

"That is the ultimate stage to judge yourself on. I have to show what I can do at that level, against the best around."

....

Hazard picked up a knock when he came on in Wednesday's friendly when he was clattered by Newcastle midfielder Cheick Tiote.

"It hurt, but I think I can play this weekend," he told Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws. "After 20 seconds I got a kick. A nice welcome, but I'm not worried about the injury."

Wilmots added: "His boot was damaged, but Eden hasn't twisted his ankle."

I love him

While we're on it, Gala should have had Melo sent off about 10 times.

the moment suarez became relevant:

You got there following Yurt's Donovan link, didn't you? :p

So did I, just been watching a few. Never realised they let SUarez back on the pitch for the celebrations, as if it wasn't bad enough already :D

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
Magath said: ‘He has reacted (to being left on the bench) very well. He was one of the most eager players in the last days in training.

‘Everything is fine. We are not in a normal situation. I can only repeat that now is not the time to play very well, now is the time to fight. Holtby is not a fighter.

Magath is a fucking maniac. Holtby is one of the most hard-working players we've ever had.

Pogba and Modric would probably be the best CM in the world.

are 'The Americans' any good? wonder if I should watch it now with TD ending :(
Don't expect it to be anywhere near True Detective.

I would sum it up as middling with the occasional jaunts into 'good' territory. It has attracted more acclaim than it deserves.

I still think depending on how much money was involved, that's not a bad deal for Juve. Khedira is off this summer it means.

it's a fantastic deal on paper, but we're essentially giving away Pogba for a player we don't even need.

Correct me if I'm wrong La Liga-GAF but Isco is made for a 4-2-3-1, right? Conte will never go for that formation for various reasons. 1) Pirlo 2) we don't have proper wide players 3) One of Tevez and Llorente will go to waste. 4) we don't have a natural LB.

it makes no sense.

Genuinely one of the best bits of skill I've ever seen. Never seen it before, and most importantly, there's actually a point to it.


Draw>Spurs win>Chelsea win


Miss most of the Spurs match at the end of the month for some Mother's Day nonsense :(

Liverpool FC ‏@LFC 1m
Belgium manager @WilmotsMarc has issued a special birthday message for @SMignolet via his official Twitter account today

Liverpool FC ‏@LFC 1m
Wilmots: “Enjoy Simon! Know that I find you an excellent goalkeeper who always shows a professional attitude in accepting my decisions…”

Liverpool FC ‏@LFC 39s
Wilmots: "And always the biggest respect shown to the team & the coaching staff in contrast with what some messages suggested in the media.”

Lol, Courtois.

Also, apparently we're scouting Dani Parejo from Valencia? I've not seen him play, is he any good?

WELL NOW IM CONFUSED

he's talking about Dark Souls. Agnelli said we ain't selling Pogba.

PSG's interest in him? Attention of the big clubs cannot frighten you, but it is a source of pride. You have to stay calm” said President Agnelli at the UNESCO event for football against racism.

“I don’t see the reason why we should deprive ourselves of Pogba: he is our growth. Every season we try to make Juve stronger, and Pogba stays with us."

FWIW, I'm okay with selling him.

Thinking of getting that, but me, they haven't been good since their first album.

you could be questing in the wrong area btw. Are you fighting the invincible skeletons? Yeah, turn around. :p

I ... don't think so. Just started. Still running around reading the messages. Looks like I have to fight the first boss in the yard now though.

I don't think he did that on purpose.
 
girls with curly hair are the worst

except if they are Keri Russell

I agree, but the girl in the photo is not even good looking and her hair isn't helping

I don't agree but I respect your opinion.

Stay away from my Katie if that's the case.

The Irish CEX website says it'll give me €220 for all my shite 360 games.

There has to be a catch somewhere because I can't see them handing me that much in cash.
 
Just got a laptop in for repairs that has at least the HDD completely fucked up. Why? The guy decided to punch it after losing an FM match. The laptop can't have more than 3 months.

Are the FA gonna compensate Arsenal for Wilshere getting injured in a pointless friendly?

Yes, the clubs are always compensated when players are injured on international duty. Usually pretty handsomely.

Ahaha, love this story.

I really liked The Americans when I watched it at the time, in my head though it has not aged well... can't actually remember much that was good about it. I kinda liked the main guy, decent actor and the russian secretary... beyond that... struggling.

Well there is a #BanAgger petition doing the rounds...

He is a nice lad though, bans himself with injuries all the time anyway.

I bet Wilshere had his house child proofed, before he found out he was having a kid.... plays in gloves in case someone decides to shake his hand.
