It's so beautiful.

"Who the fuck do you think you are? Hazard? to Spurs? Are you out of your competely delusional mind? Your best signing in the last 10 years has been an out of favor - no one else gave a shit about- van der Vaart. Don't get me wrong...great signing. But you think you're going to beat out Real, Barcelona, etc for Hazard? Come. Off. It."

My Higuain post:

Quote :

"Higuain! £25mm if you believe Spanish papers. Would be fantastic get. With the good (and deep with the emergence of Ramsey second half last year) midfield he will see a ton of good service. His goal record at Madrid was obviously fantastic.."

Quite clearly insinuated it was rumored based on the first line. And again, hardly outlandish to speculate on an out-of-favor player who was not really being chased by many. Hazard was the premier player on the continent at that time that was available. I maintain Spurs (or Arsenal) had ZERO shot.

** and truth be told I ran with it after ^ mentioned it a few time. I don't remember the original post but feel free to make fun of me about Higuain daily if your mad lessens

(Hoping nobody spends the time to find my quotes about being excited for the Carroll signing)

8/13/2013 2:49:22 PM

Fair enough. I spelled Goetze wrong too

[Edited on August 13, 2013 at 2:50 PM. Reason : Oh oops no I didn't]

8/13/2013 2:50:27 PM

I've seen it spelled both ways. ESPN uses goetze because they don't use the umlaut.

Other places just use gotze, like it's götze, because it just easier.

So far just myself and one other person have signed up for this

8/13/2013 4:43:14 PM

Suarez staying for sure. I wonder if Rodgers still won't let him play until he apologizes?

I hope Wenger at least buys some gold chains with all the money he has saved this window.

8/14/2013 9:47:30 AM

When Liverpool buys Willian (it's true, I saw it on Twitter.com), he'll be playing for a better team than he would have at Arsenal.

8/14/2013 9:51:20 AM

This is the perfect opportunity to photoshop Mr T's gold chains on Wenger.

Too bad I suck a photoshop

Wolfsburg > Arsenal

If Arteta is really out for a month, Wenger should be fired on be spot for not going €3m higher for Gustavo. He was practically begging for Arsenal to buy him earlier this week.

This is bordering on ridiculous now, his lack of wanting to spend ANYTHING.

But Diaby coming back in six months will be a huge boost I'm sure.

The transfer window really needs to end in July. Having players move after a few weeks into the season is dumb.

8/15/2013 8:20:50 AM

June 1st to Aug 1st would be perfect.

I read Gustavo wasn't price, but wages, with Wolfsburg giving him 120k/week that Arse wouldnt match.

8/15/2013 8:34:22 AM

And he can play grabass with Diego and Naldo.

In any case, I can't wait for Saturday and to see the new Extra Time!

^ what's up with Lamela? Saw that on ESPN. I would kill for him..:

Once Agudelo joins, Stoke will have 4 Americans

8/15/2013 8:44:41 AM

Not sure really.

The only thing concrete about the whole thing is that Baldini met with the Roma director to discuss him and Pjanic.

I would be over the moon if they managed to get him.

8/15/2013 8:45:02 AM

Welp, Arteta out for six weeks. Looks like its Frimpong time

8/15/2013 2:12:10 PM

8/15/2013 2:19:25 PM

If it'll force that stubborn French fuckwit to spend some money, then it may be alright.

8/15/2013 2:24:03 PM

Michu incoming.


With a disappointing season.

8/15/2013 2:25:30 PM

Flamini incoming

8/15/2013 2:48:19 PM

8/15/2013 4:47:01 PM

Suarez apologized. If they also get Willian they too would now be ahead of Arsenal on paper.

Then again, with only 11 fit first team players Arsenal may be playing with their youth team at times. Absurd...

Nah he didn't, been debunked by the man himself.



Daily Mail claiming that United have been offered Özil for 40 Million. I could see that being legit since they've got Modric and Isco to play in that position now.

8/16/2013 8:14:19 AM

^ hmmm it's all over Sky this morning which is why I said it. Not just a twitter thing.

Ozil is easily worth that price if true.

8/16/2013 8:16:15 AM

Might as well try and make some predictions since the league starts tomorrow

Ribs - Spurs - 3rd

Depending on Bale I reserve the right to update my prediction at the close of the transfer window

8/16/2013 8:34:20 AM

NyM410 - Arsenal - 6th

Fuck you Wenger for putting me in this situation.

[Edited on August 16, 2013 at 8:39 AM. Reason : I also reserve that right but wanted to put it on paper before season]

8/16/2013 8:38:42 AM

aimorris Liverpool - 5th

I'm going with City, Chelsea, United, Spurs, Liverpool, Arsenal


Best case scenario though:

1st thru 4th - ABU + Liverpool
5th - United

8/16/2013 8:49:17 AM

Does anyone know what channel #'s the overflow channels for TWC are going to be?

I don't see anything new on my guide

8/16/2013 9:03:20 AM

I thought I read somewhere they were using the NBA League Pass channels.

8/16/2013 9:17:37 AM

FriendlyFire - Arsenal - 4th

#WengerOut*


*Barring a miracle and he actually signs at least 3 players worth a damn.

8/16/2013 11:16:40 AM

Lol at this deserving the right bullshit. Man the fuck up and make a pick.

Liverpool: 4th!!!!

8/16/2013 11:24:18 AM

i'm sticking with 4th regardless

i just want Wenger gone

8/16/2013 11:48:52 AM

Wenger should coach in MLS where his cheap bullshit will be celebrated.

8/16/2013 11:53:01 AM

hey now weren't you a Man U fan at the end of last year?

I made a pick, but the inclusion or subtraction of the player of the year kind of changes things in the table.

Depending on other signings and Bale, I could go from 1st to 5th on where I might place Spurs.

8/16/2013 11:57:51 AM

lol 1st

8/16/2013 11:59:19 AM

Keep Bale and add Willian/Lamela and Alderweireld and I would think hard about it.

8/16/2013 12:01:39 PM

cali_j2004 - Liverpool - 4th

Maybe I'll finally be right. Lack of European football may help.

[Edited on August 16, 2013 at 12:48 PM. Reason : ]

I think you are mixing up the "ok to stay at Liverpool" story, which he denied, with the apology story which hasn't been denied

8/16/2013 1:43:42 PM

TOO MANY STORIES



also lol at Ribs thinking Spurs have any shot at winning the league under any circumstances


cmon guy

8/16/2013 5:04:00 PM

St Totteringhams day

8/16/2013 5:17:05 PM

Nah Ribs, dont have a favorite. I think I've chosen a new team to predict every year. I'd feel like a complete phony if I just declared team A or team B my diehard squad. Its gotta come organically, and has been a nice change of pace from my NC State /Cubs heartburn. So enjoyable watching from a neutral perspective.

8/16/2013 5:38:49 PM

I suggest Newcastle to complete the trifecta

8/16/2013 6:40:09 PM

8/16/2013 11:18:18 PM

Arsenal 3rd
Southampton 14th
