  1. I can tell, I always find your avatar meme slightly a bit disturbing, just doesn't have the chance to comment about it.. thanks for the confession anyway..
  2. no, are you?
  3. very disrespecful? which part exactly? The jose fanboys part? since you already admitted then why do you need to feel embarrased/disrespecful when someone call you one? just deal with it..
  4. The patsy remark came from another thread if i'm not wrong, it's in the conte's thread, isn't it? you responded that when I said I hate jose for his pragmatism style.. does that count as 'you do post in other thread for what its worth?' There is no need for you to stretch it back to 10 years, it's too exaggerating way trying to make a point, I wasn't even here to be able to verify that.. lets just narrow it down to the moment where jose was sacked untill now, how often did your actually post something unrelated to jose? In fact, I got this feeling you only ever responded to my posts when I include jose in it.. If me & others posting about jose considered as the same old crap, then what does it say about you and your minions when you lots constantly taking interest in this so called old crap? Your so called respect for jose has long surpassed the point where you can't even take any criticism on him, in your eyes, he's always right, even when he's wrong like last season, you always came out with some ridiculous way to justify his demenour, that is the recurring meme... Oh btw, thanks for the concern but I ain't interested in dude, fat chance..
  5. So you're fine with a striker who's struggling for goals as our main striker? Because that's what rooney has been these days.. It would take close to 50mils to get him at that time and if we got him, we certainly wouldn't have spent another 30mils to get costa in the space of just 1 season of the previous big investment.. we would give our 50mils investment plenty of chances and bang it's torres moment all over again... do you realize the error of jose's judgement here when he wanted rooney? Pogba is not worldclass and pricetag does matter!! I know it's not your money but 1 thing you need to realize that the club doesn't have infinite fund to play with.. when you spend a world record fee, you'd expect instant impact otherwise what's the point? Speaking of managers can not be moron (your word) because of just who they are, are you implying they're always right? For pep, casting joe hart away and spend money to get bravo only then end up with joe hart's initial backup in caballero, what do you make out of that then? John stones has been pretty poor for the past 2 seasons or you dare to say you saw it differently? Hazard said he's playing better this season so try to argue with him instead over your opinion.. No matter how you're trying to sugarcoat MU season, fact is they're 6th now despite spending a fortune and to make it worse, without their 35 years old striker, they would have been a lot worse and when I said 35 years old zlatan, it wasn't really meant to mock him or anything but to make a point that MU are in a dire position to need to heavily depend on him..
  6. do you think you can post more when it's not related to jose? Most of your posts were jose related and before you know it, it's just an overly attached love emotion from a dude to another dude, so weird.. Btw, where's your fellow jose's fanboys club members go? you know like barry bridge, chippy/chappy or whatever.. we're top of the league now, surely they should be interested, no? if not then this thread alone should be more than enough to make them back interested.. tell them so they can join you..
  7. and I was giving you facts about cesc having more minutes than matic since the spurs defeat.. Conte would have used matic against swansea after 'resting' him against wolves but the fact he didnt suggests what i suggested...
  8. no, you asked the question.. ever since the spurs defeat conte has used cesc more than matic, the turnover was the burnley game, cesc came on the 2nd half but not enough to win so probably conte realized he couldn't keep leaving it too late and get sucked in a draw game... He decided to change hence cesc started in the next games after that... If cesc starts again against west ham, do you then admit he has seen the light? if not, how many more starts do you need to be convinced?
  9. when the winning streak ended and we were unable to kick start another long winning run...
  10. and the manager's power is not? Manager is not the boss though, the owner, who pays the wage, is.. And it's not just a case of 1 or 2 players but the whole group.. EVen if you wanna relate to real life office company relationship, there are tons of examples where a dept head was sacked because the majority in that department doesn't think he's good enough...
  11. I also have no idea how the hell he becomes our weak link.. bide your time, conte seems to have finally seen the light and putting his faith on cesc now.. They need proof so if cesc didn't play then nothing you say would make sense to them so wait, you'll have your chance..
  12. Read Gary neville said leicester should build a statue for ranieri (to maybe worship him for their title triumph?) but after the liverpool game, he said the players won the game PURELY by determination to make it happen, no tactic involved!! If that's the case then how instrumental exactly was ranieri last season to the players? a cheerleader on the touchline? no, can't be, he's a very calm person.. I guess the influence of the manager is not as huge as what the common myth would like us to believe..
  13. Maybe you should focus more on why players didn't to do that for the manager before slamming them...
  14. He was still a footballer 4 years ago and now he isn't? Rooney was already in decline ever since the red nose bought rvp.. and for the record, it's not 4 years ago, it's 3 years.. jose didn't even finish his 3rd season with us... and If he got him, costa wouldn't have come because he only saw rooney as a striker, there's a quote for that... Imagine another prolonged torres moment (including the transfer fee & wage!!) The issue with Pogba is the pricetag, the world record transfer fee, for that amount of money, it's not outrageous to expect instant impact and he just didn't deliver.. Even the cast away Juan Mata outshines him this season, the irony.. And it's not stupid to judge stones under pep, for a top club you want your defender to be able to withstand challenge on his own, not this 'getting protection crap' I don't think I'd fancy a defender who can only be good when they have protection.. A defender that needs to be protected?? that just sounds funny.. John stones could very well be another john tompkins, typical english hype.. Speaking of his other buys, are you sure willian was his buy?? Costa and cesc were his buys but the former wouldn't have been if his 1st choice wayne rooney made the move.. selling mata getting cesc was kind of redundant move but we made a profit so ok... Thibaut courtouis was laliga winner and CL finalist so he's kind of established himself there.. As for hazard? he's been a 'world beater' (your version) before joining us and didn't hazard himself came out the other day saying he is better this season than 2 seasons ago where he was named poty? Well, MU certainly gave what he wanted and they're 6th.. Their lifeline is this 35 years old fella, free transfer..
  15. Rooney, stones, pogba... a combined of close to 200mils and with astronomical wage too.. those were the players he wanted when he's still with us... GIVE WHAT HE WANTS!! screamed his fanboys..
  16. and jose got sacked... both moyes & lvg got sacked for failing to deliver CL so be interesting to know if their stance would be any different..
  17. If that's supposed to be a joke then it's not funny.. oh, for the record, I'd take the title anyday over keeping a manager just for the sake of it... Some people need to make it clear whether they support the club or just some certain individual over the club..
  18. How on earth sanchez would cost 70 -80 mils?? By next summer, he'd only have 1 year left in his contract, can't be that expensive, can it? Anything above 100mils for costa seems like a good business for us, of all the replacements you mentioned, personally I'd only consider sanchez/griezman/lukaku, either of those 3 looks like a safe bet.. Btw, why didn't you mention messi? he hasn't signed an extension, has he? might worth a punt..
  19. Actually his passing isn't that bad.. did you watch a 3-on-3 session between team kante-chalobah-zouma vs hazard-thibaut-michy? You'd be surprise to know the worst passer among those 6..
  20. Well, if he keeps improving then we don't need to spend 40mils+ to buy sanchez..
  21. I didn't assume that but be interesting to know how you would come to that based on the original posts? You accused leicester something that we have done ourselves so that kind of 'opinion' could always backfire.. Why don't you repeat that opinion on leicester forum and see their reaction? and be sure to let them know you're chelsea fan..
  22. A top team like us never need 2 DMs especially when we have kante, be that home or away games.. You're spot on with what cesc would give us, the control.. However, cesc is only 1 of the main reasons for that, the other reason is we have to believe, from the manager to the players, that we're the top team and play like one, sometimes we give too much unnecessary respect to the other teams thus affecting our own game.. It's not like that we don't have the quality coz we do and plenty of it.. Btw love this combination of kante sitting with cesc dictating the play, it has been what I wanted from day 1..
  23. Yup, that's what I want from a top team like chelsea, the dominance.. Conte is now going more to my preferred direction so credit to him..
  24. My identity is none of your concern.. After all the things happened at chelsea in the last decade regarding player's power that led to several managerial chops, you didn't think your 'opinion' on leicester was someway off?
  25. Easy win like predicted.. Kante was amazing, hazard, cesc and pedro were all having a good game.. 1 thing I don't understand is that someone making out of this game as if we're vulnerable with cesc in the side while there was virtually nothing to suggest that in the game..
