  1. That sounds good, but since i won't be watching any of the world cup games I certainly won't be watching a documentary about it either. I won't support this whole crap in Qatar and quite honestly under all those circumstances nothing could interest me less than this winter event.

  2. As if you're lumping Crouch in with Carroll. Crouch was a good player for Liverpool and certainly helped that early Benitez team sort its away form out. Then Torres arrived and was on a completely different level.

  3. Yeah Andy Carroll was terrible, definitely makes my top 10 list of worst signings in the league. Definitely the worst LFC signing in my lifetime. Wan Bissaka's ended up a poor signing and maybe it was too early for him to make a big move after just one top flight season where he looked brilliant. Honestly, I think he's just a bit unfortunate that modern football seems to call for these really well rounded fullbacks and he's more of a "traditional" fullback that's less well rounded. I think there's a case to be made that United in recent years is not a good place for promising young players to develop & I also think there's a case to be made that he wasn't really the right sort of fullback that United needed to sign. Honestly, I think Maguire and AWB could yet salvage their United careers. I think it'd be harder for Maguire, because he'd have to accept he's not a leader and isn't fit to be captain - and I'm not sure he'd agree with that. But I don't think it's a coincidence he's looked best when paired next to Johnny Evans. But put them in a back 4 where they've got actual defensive organisation and a midfield that helps them out... I doubt they look as shit. Or go full Southgate and just have the most basic defensive tactics you can think of But I do think they'll always be viewed as players that failed to live up to initial expectations. I'm also not sure this dysfunctional United side was the best place for AWB to develop after his brilliant breakout season at Palace - maybe he made his move to a big club too early like Zaha did before him? Cos Zaha was a flop earlier on in his career, but now that he's back at Palace he's ended up kicking on pretty massively - I think if United had signed Zaha as good as he is today (or last year) he'd have ended up being considered a really good signing. But Pogba's definitely my #1 pick for absolute worst signing in the league. He's got the talent, he's just not arsed more often than not. A few world class passes every once in a while doesn't make up for the fact he's basically the opposite of what United fans were promised when it was announced he re-signed with you lot. Even though I fucking hate United, whenever I watch him play like dogshit (which tbh is 95% or more of the time I see him play) I can't help but think "I am so fucking glad he doesn't play for Liverpool" - I'd absolutely hate watching him play. And @DeadLinesmanis already angry enough already, can't be good for his heart having to watch Pogba act like he's god's gift to football despite the state of your midfield.

  6. Pig (2021) A man lives in the wilderness with his truffle pig. The pig gets stolen, and the man wants it back. Doesn't sound special? Well, that man is played by Nicolas Cage. Also a lot deeper than I first assumed. Beautifully written, well acted with a nice score. 7/10

  7. We can all love or hate him but bomb threats, NO, he has a partner and young kiddies and doing that is just pure shite whoever sent the threat.

  8. He’s lived off Pirlo and Juve’s rep at club level and his teammates at international level. Has a good game every 10 games or so. Makes a worldie pass every now and again. Contributions fuck. Has shit haircuts. Fergie knew he was a cunt as a teenager. Should have remained fucked off.

  9. In 2007 Mexican authorities found $206 Million in drug cash stashed in a Mexico city house... I don't think there is a person alive who wouldn't think " they won't miss just one little bundle"
