EPL 2014-15 Season

[NJSeahawk]

Dissapointing result for the lads. Matic was off, and if wasnt for Azpi we may have lost that one...ah well...

Courtois was your man of the match. Lallana scores that goal 9 times out of 10.

Also, shut up, GatePacker.

fify...

yeah, disappointed Liverpool arent holding a lead going into the 2nd leg, but very very encouraged at the play. such is the season.

and seriously NJ, what one player do you actually like on that Chelsea team? they are so punchable. Hazards a shame, Costa looks like a drunk uncle that shows up to family parties in a windowless van. and terry... well, f--- John terry

It's hard to like a bunch of mercs. The squad we won with Champs was my favorite. Except for la nina Torres. Drogba was my favorite..still is I guess, but a shelf of himself. I hate Costa. Just seems like a wanker. Player-wise, an absolute stud, but a dick regardless. David Luiz was awesome, but he's gone. I guess I will have to take Ramires by default, just because he did the Michael Jackson against Shitalona with the chip.

good post.

i do like Oscar. honest, hard working player. he belongs at a different club.

drogba was just a beast. one of the best. i want to hear that he has choked costa out in a training session.

LMFAO, I would pay to see that.

And Oscar's great. Made the Mata move a tad bit easier to swallow. Oh well.

Mata is not a PL player. any team is better with him not on it. (even Leicester move too fast for him) Oscar would be a great fit for Liverpools mid, or Arsenal, Southampton. Perfect for Chelsea. dont know why Mourinho messes about with him. Works so hard off the ball. technically gifted. scores goals. gets forward, gets back.

Seeing various reports all over the place that United is set to lose their best player as David De Gea seems to be on his way to Real Madrid.

Its looking that way - Sadly. Boyhood dream club comes-a-knocking. Saw the movie before.
Bale could help ease my pain though.

Word is we are in for Pogba too...61M (would have been cheaper if Freguson didn't abuse him the first time around)

In fact, United are linked to every player on the planet come to think of it!

Question for the dozen or so Seahawks fans (and one Packers one) that post on the EPL thread.

Are you Sounders Fans?
Are you Season Ticket holders for Sounders? Occasional match goer?
Do you support another MLS team.
Casual follower etc?

Really?
So that's why the Express TODAY ran a story naming him the best Dead Ball Kicker in the history of the Premier League?

They should have checked with you first! :lol:

Yes - Arguably the most fanatic on this site.
Yes, since 2010.

Agreed, if there is a player wearing a kit thats not Manchester red....we seem to be rumored to want to sign them.


Pogba would really start to turn the tide I think. That would be a signing that would really get us going back to where we need to be....


Losing De Gea would be suck...for sure...

I am a Sounder fan. I live on the opposite side of the country, though, so I've never been to a match.

Yes
No (but would like to be)
No
Follow them very closely

I read this thread all the time but rarely post. Think I'm still too much of an EPL noob. But I watch Everton matches whenever I get the chance (which isn't as often as I'd like it to be).

Section 122 since 2012
I've been a United Fan for many years, but I am enjoying supporting the local team.

When I moved to the US in 1985 Football (Soccer) was a non-entity. I used to have to pay $20 Bucks a week to "Hennessy Headquarters" in New York to Have the Premier League Weekly Videotapes mailed to me.
I moved to Seattle in 94 after the World Cup. There was talk of an MLS team and I was very excited about the prospect of seeing football played locally at a decent level. Right around that time, the Geroge and Dragon opened and that was (and probably still is) the best Soccer Pub in North America. - I was there for every United Match for about 5 years. Then Fox Sports got the rights...Little by little it caught on

I read the article in the Guardian on how the Sounders Saved the Seahawks - that alone is worth the Season Tix price.
http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2015/jan/14/how-soccer-saved-the-seattle-seahawks

One other point - It costs me more for two pairs of Seahawks tix than my Sounders Season Tickets this year.
Hoping one day blue pride membership pays off.

well, me and Jose

I just dont rate him Seab. honest question, would you replace him with say Fabregas? what about Cazorla? Lallana? Schneiderlin?

maybe he can hit a deadball. i find it hard to believe he was better than Bale, Ronaldo or Gerrard (in his prime). But he moves slow through the middle, cant defend and seems to make slow decisions.

Maybe he'd make West Ham better

Casual.

I was part of the "old guard". went to Sounders games in the Kingdome back in the late 70s, early 80s. went to their camps, played in their pre-game skills contests, etc. once they left, picked up the English league (my youth coach was in the Liverpool academy, or so he says, so Liverpool really was the only team i knew. this was 1984. not many English games on the TV then. they did run the table in the Seattle PI Sports section once a week though)

I am now "employed" by Sporting, so in that sense I do follow them. My club is an affiliate, so we work somewhat with their youth side, and they give us all kinds of gear. i like the atmosphere of the games, just not a fan of the product.

Have been going to alot of MN United (NASL) games the past couple years. Saw them play the Swans last summer. Fun times, when the weather is right.

Well he is what we got - He wouldn't make my top 50 united midfielders

 

[Uncle Si]
