[swazifarmer]

Apart for growing and smoking I also love football (not soccer) and I love Arsenal FC anyone else out there love Arsenal or football
Spurs fans need not apply

I think Arsenal will win the league and have a great chance in the champions league, I also watch La Liga from time to time, Barcalona are always great to watch

Sorry mate toon (toon army) Newcastle?
That Ashley guy fucked Newcastle over badly, I like the supporters in the NE always up for it and turn out in numbers.

Champions league? Barca and Chelsea is where I would put my money but I'll never admit that to a Chav.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

hahahah not as sorry as me and 52000 every week... tho we are top of the err championship...

barca all day, for the champions league chelsea wont perform under the pressure.

 

[swazifarmer]

Barca are a great side to watch I hate man shitty and Real Money rid, those clubs will destroy football with they billions.
More people were at the Newcastle game than watching Chelsea and United at the bridge that says alot.
Newcastle will be back in no time they too big not to be playing in top flight football so Boro but I'm sure you would disagree

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

absolutely barca play the beautiful flowing game that only some of the top flight can, the likes of man u and city and especially liverpool have shown that they can have really bad days. you see man u v scumderland?!?! im sure fergie beat them like a ginger stepkid after.

yeah the toon will go back up and hopefully get sold to a sheikh who'll get a manager in instead of a muddling through coach. the only reason were top at the mo is because the rest of the league are shitter. most of them couldn't put a goal in if we blindfolded harper.

id rather boro were up so we could batter them than sunderland mate it pains me dearly to see them do well.

lol you must be gutted, ya start a thread to talk about good football in the premier n get some sour geordie slagging the mackems hahah

I love football so much I could even talk to you about Shola Amobie the guy was banging in goals at the start of the season what happened?

Sunderland thats our next game Steve Bruce has done something to that team and Darren Bent, but I think the goals will start to dry up after that disgraceful dive against the scum oh well it was against the spuds

England Brazil whats your prediction, I think England have a good chance of winning the world cup but no European team has ever won it outside Europe

why's it called football when they throw the ball and run?????? shouldn't it be American Rugby
and the I've seen some MSL matches but its confusing with those yard lines all over it, I've seen better pitches in South Africa's townships

hahah i know first few games he was player of the championship man hahah we always knew he was a championship striker, never really stepped up to premier level sadly.

bent is coming to be an outstanding player has he not had his call up for the england squad i think i read this week in the metro?! could be wrong like. yeah there was a lot of really bad diving last week.

i honestly reckon england under cappello could win his no wags no bollocks approach has knocked the squad players that would usually have not slotted into positions as well right into shape or he's not taking them. i was a little surprised to see owen wasnt going. man u's super sub lol it pains me no end seeing him put goals in for fun, if only we could have given him the surroundings of the likes of man u

as for brazil i reckon they'll be no walk over but we should win, i reckon it wont be a clean sheet tho

 

[swazifarmer]

England on paper have a better squad Owen needs to play more to deserve that call up for me Rooney is amazing always working got a great shot just needs to calm down sometimes
Cappello has made England into a hard working organized side but in terms of goal keeping has HUGE problems my answer would be Almunia but he ain't to good either but has to be better than James,Green, or Foster I do like Kirkland but I'm not sure he's anymore english than Almunia LOL I hearing alot about the Newcastle keeper I think he's dutch you could have problems hanging onto him since good keepers are rare these days
I'm going for 2-0 England (is it home or away) 1-0 to Brazil if away I reckon if England win the goals will come from Rooney and Lampard if away I expect the Hulk to score since Pato been droped (very stupid)

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

aye its in Qatar. i think the team are already out there.

true bout owen but he's on some weird contract with man u, he gets loads for scoring but not much each week. supersub... but with the quality they have round him he should be scoring more

yeah if only shay given wasnt irish we'd be a force to be reckoned with eh

yeah for a while in the premier we had ( what i would say was) the top 3 keepers out given harper and the dutch lad tim krull is outstanding but hes second fiddle, he needs some good first team action but hughton will have to play him harper wont play all the games.

Although I am from the US, my friends and I try to watch every game that gets put on over here.
While I might not be accepted as a "fan" for any one squad, I definitely enjoy watching Arsenal play. Barca, Chelsea, and Inter are also some other teams I enjoy watching as well.
I'm not sure if Arsenal will win it all this year (Champions/Premier League), but if everyone sticks around (Cest specifically, as I have heard he might be gone after this year, and because he's unbelievable) they will definitely win it in the next couple of years. I mean, come on, the average age of all of their midfielders and fowards is what, like 22-23?
Also, Arshaven is a stud, I remember watching him in the Euro Cup (or whatever it's called) playing with Russia a couple of years ago and thinking there is no way this guy stays on a Russian club much longer. Sure enough - Arsenal a couple of months later.
