He was accused of abusing Ledley King in a Spurs match in 2006 but no compliant was ever made. I cant find the video but i remember seeing it - its pretty easy to tell what he said to him.

Also there was an england player that brought out a book a few years ago (Gary Nevillle maybe?) where they wrote about him racially taunting players in international games - i remember there was a email going around with video of him doing it. Will have to see if i can find it.

Total grub.
 
Anyone seen Warney - last I read he was talking about SAF needing shot and I haven't seen him since... musta taken the sick swan loss hard.
 
Chelsea 2-1 up at HT against the Gunners. Pretty even game but Chelsea had a couple more chances. Arsenal looking very weak at the back. As usual... Theo playing very well, as is RVP who scored

aha nah i accepted it sunday night.. Turns out that my brother's minecraft obsession uses up all of our data allowance, meaning that i've had zero access to internet in the past 5 days.. Sorry lads (not that you'd care much aha)

Awesome game tonight, well down Gunners. Absolutely amazing you have to say! United hit back as well..
 
Warney your over in Kelmscott aren't you? If you heard any loud shrieking in the distance earlier, don't stress. Would of been me celebrating goals 4 and 5 :kick:

Jeez, he doesn't half lap it up does he Van Persie!!

Crazy game at Stamford Bridge! SO many high scoring games this year... a case of old defenders (Rio, Terry) struggling a bit and young defenders not quite being good enough yet? Awesome to watch anyway...

City had to work very hard today. Wolves always play us tough. I might be a bit biased but I thought the ref was rough on us - 18 fouls to 6 against. They fell over all day and got the calls. We started doing the same and nothing..... Kompany saw red and that was earned! Joe Hart to blame with a very average block.
Great to see AJ come on and crack another fantastic goal.

probably couldn't hear your celebration over my celebrations.. I hate Chelsea.
 
Good to see u back Warney. There was very little United discussion last week.

Now fellas - defences - what's up with them?? 31 goals today in 8 games....they're pouring in..... discuss....
 
IMO its money. When clubs invest in players its usually attacking players rather than defenders. As you said the quality of the defenders is just not there at the moment compared to the great attacking players that are flooding into the league.

Jesus - im agreeing with you again.
 
Mindset as well. A lot of these higher scoring games involve teams losing who have had wanted to go out and try and win the game. When Arsenal and United got turned over, they continued to leave themselves open, whereas they maybe should of tried a more defensive formation once they were on the back foot. But then, why switch to defensive when your already behind, you want to try and come back... So your open to letting in more goals

Speaking of letting in goals, did this guy slip, or just plain give up?

Pace is the answer.

if this video works check out the first 10 seconds walcott leaves him for dead.

There are fast defenders around.... perhaps more quality attackers than defenders in the league...
Wonder if this years ball has anything to it. There's been some awesome 25 yard goals flying in. I saw pretty much all the gaols today and I'd say there were 4 or 5 belters - Petrov, Mata, Hoilet, AJ..forgotten others...
