I know man, I'm highlighting the same thing as you. I just quoted the wrong poster :tongue: EDIT: Edited.

I don't think so at all :confused: His arms for sure do look stronger than your average footballer, though. Puyol is the one built like a bombshelter imo.

No, you can't. You're totally right when you say chelsea's CBs are different to ours - they are outfielders. A keeper's task is exactly the same regardless of team, style or approach, and is not in any way influenced by how the other 10 play (Unless they're pish and the keeper is constantly...

No I mean it makes not a shred of sense. If we get countered or have to defend a Fk, penalty or corner or not, someone's still shooting at our goal and it's the keeper's job to block it. He doesn't "suit our style", he's not an outfielder, he has fuckall effect on our style. Casillas is better...

Jesus we have some fickle fuckers on here. How about waiting a minimum of 6-10 games before slating our players and declaring them shit buys, wastes of money, second choices.

Casillas is just better, that's a bizarre thing to say Necro. It doesn't make any sense at all.

...Espanyol. :lol:

Piqué-Milito partnership would have been cool, just like at Zaragoza back in the day when Pieuqnbauer was loaned there. Still, as heartbreaking as it is, at least we have Muniesa and Txigo :)

EMD says a minimum of 2-3 months out. Fuck, what a nightmare. That's as long as Don Andres was out.

Valdes is better than Reina in my opinion, but he's pretty much universally slated by everyone apart from Culés. And actually by some Culés as well.

Txigo is winner.

How do you know this? Also, latest reports indicate his contract negotiation is right on track again, and both he and the club want him to stay. I'm thinking it was his agent shitstirring for a better deal, I mean it's obvious we need Puyol this year. I think we will see this lineup many times...

Fuck me, I can't keep up with the growth of these threads. Though personally private + publish would be the way to go as you already made the cons of public clear and I think they outweigh the cons of private.

If Maradona insists on playing a 36 year old uncapped CB from Newell's Old Boys rather than Inter's Samuel ... But I thought if Argen didn't make the top 4 they could still qualify through playoffs?

It wouldn't be the same but it'd be better for our nations, probably. Not that I'm too worried by Argentina while Maradona is in charge.

Still no prediction of when he'll be able to train though. I think there's a chance we'll never see him play professionally again, as horrible as it sounds. His injury already flared up badly once and had to be re-operated upon at about this stage in his recovery. Best of luck to Gabi and a...

Agreed, a keeper wouldn't be able to motivate as well as an outfielder. Plus I can't see Iniesta as cap material, the captain needs to be imposing and be able to slap the players about a bit. Xavi next, and then Pique are no-brainers. Piqué exudes fuckloads of charisma and leadership on the...

What the fuck is a stallwort, sounds like some sort of root :lol: You mean he's stalwart in defence ;) On topic though, that was a striker's finish. What a versatile and immense player, so fucking glad he's back home rather than rotting away in grey Manchester

I think Benfica was mostly down to the possibility of European football, CL qualifiers or Europa Cup or whatever. Maybe the language barrier as well, but fuck, the transition from Portuguese to Spanish isn't that hard.

Hells to the no. It looks like some philosopher or Jesus is playing for us.
