I'm not being selective, you are. I quoted your whole statement. Here, I'll do it again if you like. "And a person with my multiethnic background can hardly be called a racist. It's actually the last thing I can be called. And sorry to disappoint you but I have very distant English/British...

Perhaps you don't understand what a straw man argument is, and that's why your response is unintelligible. I never said someone of multiple ethnicities isn't less likely to be racist, that's an argument you've invented because you know you can try and refute it, rather than addressing the point...

Straw-man argument designed to distract from your original, embarrassingly dumb assertion. "And a person with my multiethnic background can hardly be called a racist. It's actually the last thing I can be called. And sorry to disappoint you but I have very distant English/British ancestry as...

I always kind of just thought you were feigning stupidity for the sake of trolling, but this - wow.

Probably the dumbest thing I've seen posted on this board. And yeah, you do seem to have a creepy kinda chip on your shoulder when it comes to anything remotely English.

He was influential, but his all-round play really wasn't that great. He made loads of mistakes. http://vimeo.com/38125522

The Anglophobes on here tend to latch on to something stupid one Englishman has said, then just assume that's the general consensus. It's only ignorant when we do it, you see. I've actually had someone on this board explain to me that English fans and the media hate passing football...

He's playing as a #9.

Just before he got beat :troll:

Was he? I can't say I agree with that. I think Gerrard was probably our best performer when you consider his impact and the daft positions he was asked to play.

Milner is an accident waiting to happen in the England midfield. He doesn't have the experience there, he doesn't have the positioning. He can pass and run about a lot, but that's about it. You could say the same for Parker to an extent, but he's still a much better partner for him. Carrick is...

He's performed for England every chance he's had to be fair, those chances have just been very limited due to his erratic club form. Wilshere is the best midfielder we have, but the chances of him being match fit for the tournament are looking pretty slim right now.

Did nobody read the article? He would have had to have had British citizenship at the time that he played for the Spanish youth teams in order to be eligible. I don't think he was too bothered about playing for England anyway, not like Almunia.

I think someone's been watching him in training, what the fuck was Cahill doing there :lol: Mile offside like...:blush:

ew

Rubbish. I'm sure they have more because of that, but to attribute their massive worldwide fanbase to that is just being either naive, or deliberately disingenuous. If Barca were playing the same style, with the same ethics, but only a mid-table Spanish side, they wouldn't have a quarter of the...

Well it's not really relevant either way, because Barca were still winning things back then.

No, rhetorical.

Which for the most part is true, surely? If Barcelona won nothing do you think it would still have massive worldwide support?

No, finishing fourth is about getting into the Champions League, and a crack at a far superior competition and cup. I don't believe for a second that you would take fourth over the Carling cup if offered.
