Kenny Dalglish Won't Be Delivering the Module: English Premiership 2011-12

yeah a lot of them are and this is my point. think they need to be treated like Hitchcock treated actors.

most managers don't have that power

daniel sturridge went to chelsea??

Wants to move to a middle of the table position iirc.

Not getting played there ahead of Torres is some bullshit though and if I was him or Lukaku I'd be more pissed with every game it happens. If we were discussing managerial ability to oft come with confidence boosting the other day, AVB is working on a Rafa-esque scale with keeping these dudes behind Nando.

Not sure he has much choice, does he?

He happily dropped him for Drogba pre-acn, why not drop him for their best scoroer this season?

again, no. he's got to play the 50m world superstar in this case. chelsea not a normal club in these circs.

drogba != kids

well then he doesn't have the balls to deserve the chelsea job and should be fired immediately

the last dude who had the balls was fired for not playing abramovich's striker

Possibly he doesn't think Sturridge is all that, and I'm sort of with him on that

Sturridge is 22, been playing in the league for 5 seasons and is roughly at 1 in 2 this season. he doesn't exactly =! kids either.

Sturridge yes, and tbf he plays a lot; Lukaku no, he's done little yet to suggest he's any good.

Oh, do people not like Sturridge? I've always been really impressed with him and presumed everyone else was as well.

there's that too- whatever about the balls required to face down an omnipotent owner, he's surely not about to be dictated to by a stroppy 21 yr old on a long contract

maybe he hadn't realised that daniel sturridge had gone to chelsea

Re: Lukakau - It seems as if Roman bought him specifically as an afterthought, as in "What other club could spend £18m on an 18 year old and just forget about him? Man City don't spend like us."

Sturridge is good but he's no Fernando Torres.

that sentence broke my head so... umm what? wanna elaborate?

Steve Morison is good but he's no Fernando Torres. And Norwich are happy with it being like that.

True. That reminds me I had an Arsenal fan, who (bizarrely) thought I was a fellow Gooner, loudly bemoaning the future of the Arse (this was before the 7-1) and he kept saying, "If Chelsea offered Torres for Walcott, I'd take him!"

well yeah but it's shit for shit

would anyone turn down torres for walcott?

tbh i think i prefer theo. at least there are grounds for improvement, whereas torres seems destined to be sold to turkey/russia/china/do the rounds and never play at a high level again

Hmmmmmmm, think Torres' career is recoverable tbh. Not sure that Theo's ever going to improve that much.

theo has grounds for improvement as much as carroll has grounds for improvement tbh

xpost

I think Theo + Carroll can both improve!

one should hope so!!

read a few more books, study algebra

Yeah Carroll should be fine if he stops being a dick. [Theo kinda needs to become a dick to improve.]

i think he should practise shooting. and crossing.

Moaning Arsenal fans have made me warm to Theo tbh, he's like The Doors, he was so annoyingly overrated befoe that's he's in danger of being underrated

ffs

sam you'd turn any easygoing fucker into ronan so you would

my personal opinion is that he goes through periods of both being V GOOD and V BAD, like 8 games of one and then the other. Sometimes earlier in the season when he was really good and finally convinced people to pay attention to him was when he started his v bad period. I felt like it was an Invisible Boy situation - he was great until anyone actually started paying attention and then he fell apart again.

oh come on, you love it

suedey and james and them are too easy going for you to hate arsenal fans, i've got to pull up the weight.

AOC has rendered poor Theo obsolete + unloved :(

it's, and i've said this before, n1ck uptoeleven i feel sorry for

so it's come to this: pity from a spurs fan.

what's worse is that I'm happy to take it.

sitting in the vale, weeping tears of gratitude & shame

'Arry: Innocent as the day he was borned!
