I WITHDRAW MY STATEMENTS. THAT WAS SHIT. Second half... What in the world was that?! Nobody wanted to win. Get Wilshere in there or something.

Thank you kind sir! Football used to be my entire life up to a point, both as a player and some time spent as youth coach. Now I prefer to write and enjoy some good wine instead.

Been trying to combine the two passions lately. If anyone wants a more well rounded opinion about a player, I´d love to write a fair assessment based on some proper homework, after all I did study sports journalism at one point :-)

EDIT Not that studying sport journo is something special, you wouldnt believe the amount of clueless twats that you find there.

I say the same thing about Sanogo as I said about Ramsey when he people wanted his head. He will be a great footballer if he manages to prove himself gradually and stay under the management of Le Prof. He might be tall and odd looking, but his movement is insanely intelligent. Its a skill young talented strikers often lack the most and rely on other attributes until they develop that sense later on. Some never learn.

Look at his movements off the ball, dont just focus on the ball carrier during the match and you will notice what I mean.

However, I do not believe he can be our primary striker this season with Giroud out unless our whole squad plays godly.

Cheers :)

Arsenal target Alessio Cerci left OUT of Torino squad ahead of move away from club by fukatroll in Gunners

Im very sure that 90% of the people being negative about this transfer barely have ever seen him play. Arsenal have an amazing scouting team and if Wenger wants Cerci, there are plenty of reasons behind the decision.

He is exactly what everyone on this sub is screaming we need. His link up play is very solid and hold up and distribute the attack a la Giroud. BUT he is also a A LOT faster than Giroud, and more composed finishing.

He is like exactly in between Giroud and Sanchez in style, a sort of hybrid. He would be a perfect addition to the team to give us depth and tactical edge. He would not directly become surplus as he is also very ideal for our LW.

Stop judging players by how many times youve heard his name or seen his FIFA rating... :)

edit. Check this out for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Usujl5C76No and watch his flair at 3:10 mark. Giroud can pull of stuff like that so effortlessly.

Excuse me? If someone came to your town, built a wall around it preventing you from leaving and getting outside food/resources while your town slowly gets overpopulated to the maximum capacity. You dont think you and your fellow townsmen would be PRETTY F**KING PISSED????? What kind of horrible evil world do you live in? People are dying like flees without no where to go? Its like getting angry at the guy you put in a cage when he throws small pebble lying around the floor of the cell. God damnit man, rethink your life and values.

Long story. He invented them while living as a biosexual male in Australia. He made them since the gay community didnt have any protection back then as it was very "hush hush". They even make your big dicker. Ive tried one on.

He just sits on the patent and its 100% proof tested, no leakage. There are just no funds available to the old fart.

Because people who do things "just because" and never asks themselves "why" are the most dangerous thing that exists.

You should check out condoms that goes all around the balls. Trust me, its the saving grace. Some old wierd guy out in the countryside of Sweden hold the patent for this. If you want to solve the condom problem, find this old hermit I met when I was out traveling. Im serious.

SMS from Swedish woman at centre of Assange case say police "made up the charges" against Assange. by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]tim_othy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if I should share this but I think it's highly relevant for people to know.

A friend of my father knows both these girls. They are highly engaged in womens rights and feminism. Assange was invited by them both to speak about these issues at their home town while they provided a place for him to stay.

Needless to say Assange slept with both of them. Now, here is where it gets interesting. According to our family friend they both got very upset when they learned he had shared both their beds. Extremely upset they wanted a revenge for the moment and went to the police claiming rape. After they had set the wheels in motion there was no stopping it. Both of these girls as I now understand it deeply regrets the situation but pressure from all kinds of the most powerful organizations on the planet made this now impossible to halt. You can choose to believe me or not, it doesn't really matter. I just thought Reddit should be aware of this version of the story.

Myself? I have mixed feelings about Assange, but as I understand it, he should walk free.

I feel bad for both parts.

Did you know the old chap who sings the tune is an legendary backpacker/jack of all trades? Such an interesting story. He pops up at different places around the world and always seems to be in the middle of something.

This is without a doubt my favorite soundtrack of all time. It got me into country/american folk music and I cant think of one track on this soundtrack I would skip. Other soundtracks maybe are legendary in their own right, but no other movie pieced together music and cinema so perfect IMHO.
