    boo'd off by the Lazio fans. Basically a typical performance by him this season

    What's his season like, not interested or just been a poor one?

    My girlfriend heard the noise and had to come over and watch it with me. Then we were both laughing! The dialogue they chose fits impressively well.

    Just back from the game with three arsenal lads :pac::pac::pac:

    When rojo went off it really showed how Memphis likes the support from the lb, Fosu-Mensah seemed hesitant to get too forward until the end of the game, it seemed to leave Memphis isolated.

    I think both full backs stayed back in the second half.

    Poor ol James Wilson can't even break into the Brighton team, amazing how far backwards he's gone since lvg took over.

    It's amazing how LVG isn't picking him for Brighton alright.

    I can imagine your man in the video above having a right old laugh at the comment. :D

    Best video ever

    Love when he keeps saying "two goals" haha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,758 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    the best bit for some reason is when he is serious for a sec and then says... "even Memphis played well" before falling around the place with that brilliant laugh of his... what a guy.

    Pereira and Weir were really taking the piss out of the Middlesborough lads at the end there in the corner killing time,

    Weir looks a great prospect,like the look of that Redmond lad in the CM as well,tidy enough player.

    They won 2-1, Pereira with a pen and that old favourite the og with the second

    I think its a bit of both but mainly been extremely poor. He looks a shadow of last season and if he was any older I would say he was a one season wonder

    You could say the same about Memphis, and Anderson is younger

    He had a fantastic game for them last week against galatasaray in Europe got a goal and man of the match. He is very inconsistent yhh but he has not been all bad this season. It could be the case he knows he is moving in the summer or it could be just a bad year.

    Huh, I don't get it, obviously he doesn't pick their team. Are you saying he's improved since lvg took over?

    Anyway he came on and got 10 mins, seems to have nipped ahead of 35 year old Bobby Zamora.

    Nope. If Wilson has continued to decline at Brighton, in a much easier league, that has nothing to do with Van Gaal.

    For anyone still hungry for gifs featuring LVG's Fallon D'floor moment, this one with audio is certainly creative...

    Whatever it is that's happening now, I'm going to enjoy it until Watford or West Brom probably end it.

    Not sure how you've come to that conclusion. Sitting on the bench for 6 months behind a misfiring Rooney wasn't great for Wilson's development.

    Nice to see its not our thread that is imploding for a change... No doubt we will be back there soon but enjoy watching others do it for few days.

    I get the feeling that the tide has turned somewhat with van Gaal after the week and the falling on the ground and the passion he showed has made the fans think, hey, maybe this guy can come good for us.

    15 first team injuries, I don't think any club in the world could cope with that

    He isn't.

    I hope not - the guy needs to be got rid of in the summer.

    We thought he had turned a corner around the same time last season when we whupped Spurs and Liverpool - and then it all went to crap again, and this season has been consistently crap up until the last week - during which we beat a crap danish side (having lost to them) a relegation threatened division 3 side and an Arsenal side doing their annual spring folding. The arsenal game is the only one of credit, imo.

    As for the injuries - it is a 'meh' excuse imo. Relying on injury prone players and a small squad - injuries is what you are going to get. He reaped what he sewed.

    Much like last season you can argue he has lucked into a run of form and style. Lets see if this upturn in form lasts, and whether he goes back to shoe-horning in Fellaini and Rooney when they return, for example.

    But we also need to remember what the team was playing like for past 18 months and yhh we have alot of Injuries but he is the one that left the squad short.

    I know rashford has come on and done well in two games but to continue past January with just 2 recognised strikers was insane.

    Out of the 15 players injured only around 5 of them are proper first team players that would be integral parts of the first team squad the rest are players that were drafted on to cover for lack of debt and injuries.

    But look if we continue playing decent football and results keep on the up im sure we will all come around but I wouldn't be forgetting the past 18 months on one weeks results.

    Absolutely nothing has changed regarding Van Gaal, one good game does not undo nearly two years of horrifically bad management.

    With some fans it does though.

    Remember the fact a spikey press conference (in which he deflected and avoided blame) won over a load of fans.

    A lot of fans are very fickle.
