grudging respect? i loathe man utd, but ryan giggs is one of the most entertaining players ever to grace english football.

Hehe, that seems to be the general opinion among non-United fans...some may hate Keane or Beckham, some may say Cantona is way overrated, but everyone loves Ryan Giggs !

  And why wouldn't you, he's the perfect attacking player, there's nothing you can ask more...his only flaw is his injury record

[Shoco]

i was at the utd and spurs game yesterday, have to say spurs probably deserved a draw, bot oh well a win is a win

ashley cole should never open his mouth again. everythng he says sounds like a child with a skelped arse. now he's bitching that the arsenal fans loved thierry henry and not him. i wonder why ashley.

what a little shitebag

[Danny Top Hat]

Check ceefax.  Apparently he's bitching about the Arsenal board, saying he wanted 60k a week and was only offered 55k a week.

"The club made Thierry feel wanted and special, wooing him, wining and dining him, speaking in public about how much they want him to stay, going on a deliberate charm offensive. But me? I didn't have one dinner, one meeting or one phone call from anyone. That's not sour grapes, it's just a sad truth. The truth is that the Gunners had done nothing all season to hold on to me."

He added: My worst fears were confirmed when, as Thierry and I sat in the centre circle after the final whistle, his name was sung from the rooftops while my contribution was recognised by a deafening silence.

"As his chants faded away we waited for mine. And we waited. And there was nothing. 'They're not bothered about me', I said, resigned to the fact. It was like I was the invisible man."



Aye right - so the reason you didnt stay is that arsenal didnt take you out for your dinner? And i fail to believe that post match the stadium announcer asks the fans at highbury to show their appreciation for each player in turn, nevermind the fact that when it was ashley's turn everybody was completely silent (except the obligatory crickets chirping and tumbleweed a-blowin')

i know most of the guys here are from england and such and you are kinda narrowminded when it comes to the other leagues besides premier league.. anyways zlatan ibrahimovic did his debut for inter in this weekend and assisted to one goal and scored the third goal for inter so they won with 3-2..

[2NaFish]

i'm sure i watched zlatan playing for inter a few weeks ago. against roma if i recall.....

yes but that was just a exhibition game.. the italian league started this weekend so it was his first competative game..

[2NaFish]

good, cos his performance in that match was disgraceful. he was so lazy it was insulting to the people who paid to see the game.

yeah i know he's lazy sometimes.. but almost every forward are lazy

[2NaFish]

not the good ones.

[CheapJon]

not the good ones.

yeah i know all the bad forwards in the worlds play for inter, hernan crespo, adriano, julio cruz, alvaro recoba and zlatan.. those guys are so untalented

[MadmanDan]

Noo, Zlatan is exceptionally talented, but aside from that he's a horrible Football player and probably human being. Lazy, selfish, a real prick

[2NaFish]

not the good ones.

well i never commented on those players nor inter so i dont know why you brought that up. why did you mention them are you stupid or just incredibly defensive?

zlatan is a horribly lazy and arrogant player and doesnt deserve to be where he is because of that.

no i aint stupid or defensive i'm just making a point, are you stupid not getting my point?.. i never knew that you were the person that had the right to judge where players deserves to be..

the reason i brought up inter and the other players was because, how could you be a starter in a team with those if you aint good?.. most players in your eyes are prolly lazy

[2NaFish]

because he's talented, not good.

and ofcourse i have the right judge wether or not a player deserves his position. and please dont make assumptions on wether or not i think players are lazy. i mentioned zlatan - therefore you know my opinion on him, nobody else. so why bother commenting?

sorry i opened my mouth in this narrowminded only-for-english-soccer-and-english-players-and-as-soon-as-you-open-your-mouth-about-other-countries-people-will-tell-you-that-you-are-wrong-and-england-is-the-best-nation-in-the-world-in-soccer-thread

[2NaFish]

once again your assumptions are completely incorrect. i wont explain just why your belief that this thread is only for english people is so ridiculous when it comes to me, but rest assured you've made an arse of yourself.

wether zlatan plays in england, italy or timbuktu he's still lazy and that is one of the worst qualities you can have in a player. that was all i said, you turned it in to more than that as you clearly have a chip on your shoulder.

sorry but since english is not my mother tongue.. what does "assumptions " mean?.. the reason why i say this thread is almost only for english fans is because you almost always talk about english football.. and no i'm not making an ass out of myself.. i'm only 16 and i have the right to be immature plus i prolly misunderstand you and you misunderstand me 'cause of i ant really great at the englisg language... anyway yeah
