The Ongoing Serie A, La Liga, All English Football, Champions League Thread - Part 3

I'd say B should definately play CB. You need a good general at the back.

My aggression and frustration would be wasted in goal. That way, I wouldn't be able to hack down Stoke's players when facing them.

Jens Lehmman? t:

Also Darth, I saw that Landon Donovan scored twice against Real Salt Lake, and set up the third. Good to see his recovery time hasn't affected his game.

 

[Van Petrol]

^ True. However, playing in goal would hinder the ability to throw in some hard tackles when required. t:

Yeah, he had a good game. He plays with such passion you almost feel bad because I honestly believe he should be playing in Europe.

I'm making you a LB, I made a CDM.

 

[Van Petrol]

@ Darthphere. I usually play RW or CF, and am around 6ft. If that helps.

 

[Darthphere]

Ok cool.

 

[spidey-dude]

Hopefully, all we need is 11.

So creating this team so far I have this...

CF- Spidey-Dude
CM-Hunter Rider (C)
LW/LM- ttotheusher
CB- Darthphere

Now to fill out the other positions I had this in mind.

-CB or RB
Dr Lee- CM
Van Petrol- GK

care to explain the insights on why you chose the positions for people? are they random or is there a reason to them?

It's pretty much just random or in some cases depending on their posting style. For example, in Hunter Rider's case it just seemed right to make him a CM as he is our fearless leader.

 

[Van Petrol]

Make me like Socrates! bushy hair and all!

Lol! Do you sport that sort of appearance in real life too?

 

[Hunter Rider]

I guess you weren't watching him at the beginning of the season then. He was almost single-handedly carrying our team while the Captain was out. Check out our game against Fulham at home at the front end of this season.

I was reading a post on another board from an Arsenal fan, and he felt Nasri's season had stalled because he was moved around too much and had been shining centrally in Fabregas' abscence.

Don't Manchester United still have a buy back clause for him? I'm 99% sure I remember reading that when he was sold..

I think the time limit has expired on that clause.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Haha! No, I could never look as cool as Socrates so I figured I'd use virtual reality to help me out! t:

 

[Van Petrol]

Lol!

I think he's best suited on the RW/RM, tbh.

 

[spidey-dude]

im interested in seeing what looks darth goes for for us

 

[Darthphere]

This is as close to Socrates I could get:

[The Englishman]

Well i think thats game over for us, no chance of getting promoted now....

Fair warning, one of you will be Asian because we need some diversity on the team.

GATTUSO!!! GATTUSO!!!

I'm half asian, so you can do me if you want. Make me look like Pep Guardiola, as that's who I'm often said I look like when I get a buzz cut and haven't shaved.

What did Lennon do with the Northern Ireland shirt?

while playing an international match at windsor park (N.Ireland's main ground) he was pulled off for a sub, throwing a fit he took off the shirt, threw it in the mud and spat on it in front of the home ground.

I know I'm not the most frequent of posters in this thread, but if you've still got an open spot on the team, I'd like to be added to the roster as well. You could stick me on the right wing, I'm not the tallest dude(only about 5 foot 7), but I'm pretty fast. t:

 

[Darthphere]

Hey we could always use some bench players.

 

[BatmanBeyond]

Well, if there aren't any starting places available, sure.

I'm making you a LB, I made a CDM.

, I like it.

Well, your pretty accurate. When I was still at school/playing for my local team I played mainly as CM/CDM.

If you want me to liken myself to Premiership player from a stat angle - Owen Hargreaves (minus the injuries & quicker ) you wouldn't be far off. I could play essentially anywhere other than as a striker or goalkeeper .

Get Fergie to sign me up, I could have done as much as Owen Hargreaves has feckin done for United these past few seasons without even breaking a sweat.

I'd say B should definately play CB. You need a good general at the back.

 

[B]

I think the time limit has expired on that clause.

It would be amusing if we had the ability to steal him for like £10m with clubs willing to pay over £20m for him.
