  1. For the record, even though I didn't like how they stripped down a lot of the RPG element to Fallout 4... I still loved Fallout 4, it's a great game. Especially on survivor mode, but that's a different story all together really. But my problems with Fallout 4's Nuka World are this: 1.) I didn't like the story. In the base game there were a lot of people complaining about the removal of karma and how you couldn't really play as an evil character because ultimately you'd just be roll playing as a bad guy who ends up doing the same quests as anyone else playing the game. It's a fair criticism. With Far Harbor, I actually felt like they returned to their old ways of having meaningful choices behind your characters choices. In Nuka World, though, you feel forced into being "evil" - that's how I felt, at least. Even the "good" plot line doesn't have you out as some good guy. 2.) Minutemen plot expanded - the Minutemen are the worst part of FO4 imo. Boring storyline, boring quests, etc. This is more of that. 3.) Not enough new guns, and I liked the AK... but then there's the problem of ammo scarcity. The ammo is VERY scarce for it. 4.) The theme park idea is great, it's a good setting. But it just doesn't feel... alive and the map feels pretty empty. Which makes sense considering it's a wasteland... but even in the barren wastes of the Mojave, I never feel like it's totally dead. And as you know... patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.
  2. I was pretty disappointed with Nuka World tbh. Far Harbor was great, but the DLC for Fallout 4 was crap. Meanwhile New Vegas has great DLC campaigns - it really is the best Fallout game.
  3. Shame Roman won't buy him better banter.
  4. Three players signed before Coutinho was sold
  5. It was always inevitable once your club ruined football
  6. He was awful in the World Cup too, I think Tite is a bit mental for not dropping him for Firmino who looked much better. They’re both better at different things though. While Firmino is undoubtedly one of my favourite players, and Allison is now the most expensive keeper ever, the signing I’m actually most excited about is Fabinho, despite not following French football at all. While CB was an issue, at least until VVD came around, and keeper has been a problem position for us for years, I’ve been wanting us to play with a real DM and one with lots of energy in the midfield. With the midfielders we have, our front 3, and our bombing fullbacks I’ve long thought a Mascherano-a-like would go a long ways to improving us. But I also thought that’s not a very Klopp like player. I figured someone more like Jorginho (who I wanted as our #1 signing) would be more in line with how we play. But when we quickly signed Fabinho and read about his play style and watched some videos, he looks like the player I’ve wanted us to have since Masch left. But with more height. If he fits in well with us, I think that’s just brilliant because more control of the midfield helps the defense and the attack. And that’s what players like that allow for. If he settles quickl and is a good fit, it’s massive for us.
  7. @Happy Blue We're going to have a serious North-West Brazilian rivalry going on now. Keeper: Allison v. Ederson Midfield: Fabinho v Fernandinho Forward: Firmino v Jesus Hopefully with the additions to the squad, we'll be able to give you a serious run for the title instead of letting you just run away with it. And these 6 lads are all competing for the same positions in the national team.
  8. I think Chelsea should look to bring back club legend Petr Cech and I am going to maintain that until they actually do and use him as their starting keeper.
  9. Michelangelo for sure.
  10. I’d give it to VVD, natural leader. But I don’t think Hendo will lose his captaincy. Here’s how I feel right now: I actually think Allison will bring about the end of new players coming in. A few players like Ward, Migs, Ings might get sold and some kids might get loan moves, but I think we’ll go into the season keeping Origi and Sturridge and giving them a shot, rightly or wrongly, at redemption. As backup to Bobby though. I think we still want a #10, but I am not sure we go back for Fekir. At least probably not until January.!l So I think that makes our midfield three a trio of: Keita, Fabinho, Henderson, Milner, Wijnaldum and Lallana. Even with no #10 that’s decent depth. Keeper we’ve splashed the cash on. A healthy Clyne on top of the defense we had last year that improved massively with VVD. The depth with our front three, a bad injury to any one of them would be devestating. It’s been addressed a bit with Shaqiri for depth, but any one of that trio being out would not be good. Especially Bobby. Having said that we’ve addressed major concerns in a big way this summer and brought in Shaqiri for much needed depth. So that’s a major positive going into this season.
  11. Klopp’s rejected Henderson’s request to End his time off and go straight back to pre-season training. Klopp called him crazy and confirmed he and Lovren have extended breaks and won’t be in our opening match.
  12. Yeah ironically the call for a return to the 1950s doesn't account for the fact that immigration laws in the UK were less strict in the 50s than they were in the 70s and 80s . The 80s were devastating for Merseyside though, lots of jobs lost forever and people packed up and moved where there was work. This in turn, had a negative impact on the businesses that served the community. There's a good reason why Thatcher remains reviled.
  13. The country was still reeling from the Blitz and he and other kids would play in bombed out houses. For about half a decade, wartime rationing was still in effect. People worked in coal mines and steel mills for totally shite wages to go home and be hungry. It's shite like that my grandad worked hard to get his family out of when he came back to England after the war. People who want to return to that are delusional, or want a return to a more oppressed and pliable working class populous.
  14. Do it, I just did it and I'm fucking loving it.
  15. Sam Allardyce is on the bench for Bury. FAT SAM'S REVENGE.
  16. We bought VVD before we sold Coutinho though. That was probably more expensive than it needed to be because of us fucking Southampton about with tapping him up and routinely going after their best players and us needing to assuage them. But we brought him in before selling Coutinho & both transfers were after the Neymar transfer which has utterly ruined this market.
  17. My spirit animal is a turtle. The website said: The turtle totem wisdom teaches us about walking our path in peace and sticking to it with determination and serenity. Slow moving on earth, yet also incredibly fast and agile in water, those who have the turtle as totem or spirit animal may be encouraged to take a break in their busy lives and look around or within themselves for more grounded, long-lasting solutions. Whereas I said: "what the fuck, I'm a fucking turtle?" Different perspectives I suppose.
  18. Yeah but people were saying that when the offers were substantially smaller than what we ended up getting for Coutinho.
  19. The Allison fee and the VVD fee basically add up to the Coutinho fee. Thanks Barca, you twats
