Because you kick a ball with your foot in it. Not like your lot's rugby with padding.

Re: Back of the Net! - The Football Thread
Rugby/American Football? What the hell is that shit? Is that even a game? If it is, it's silly. They have those silly caps and jumping on each other like a bunch of queers.
It's a fucking blasphemy that the REAL Football game is being called Soccer by many. What the hell?

Bendtner is world's greatest striker!
Re: Back of the Net! - The Football Thread
Ofc he is, along with that two left-feet Torres.
Re: Back of the Net! - The Football Thread
Never did I think I'd see Bendtner and Torres mentioned in the same vein. Oh, how.. things have changed Although Bendtner is still nowhere near Torres' level.Decay wrote:Ofc he is, along with that two left-feet Torres.

I'd have to go with Tony Cottee as the world's best striker, although that was back in the 1980's
Re: Back of the Net! - The Football Thread
Re: Torres - Being a Liverpool fan... he's obviously not my favourite person in the world but that's a teensy bit harsh in my opinion, he scored 22 goals last year. Obviously he's nowhere near his Atletico Madrid/Liverpool days... but he's still a decent striker, and he still shows flashes of brilliance every now and then (Europa League final against Benfica/Super Cup against Bayern) I think when it comes to strikers that suck... you have to look at players like Danny Graham and Marouane ChamakahDecay wrote:They both suck
Re: Back of the Net! - The Football Thread
Never heard of those two (but I think Chamakah played for Arsenal), but I'll trust you they suck more than Torres.
I know Torres isn't THAT bad, he's just not as nowhere near his Atl. Madrid/Liverpool days, like you said.

Torres is so sexy.
Re: Back of the Net! - The Football Thread
Damn. I can't believe I missed 'El Classico' yesterday. What the hell was I thinking?
Just watched the highlights and no wonder Barca won 2-1 over Madrid.
What in the bloody hell was Ancelotti thinking by putting Ramos as a midfielder?! And Lopez as a goalkeeper, seriously? Also, how the hell could Khedira play instead of Benzema or Isco?! You suck, Ancelotti. The 'keep everyone happy' strategy ain't working anymore. Get your shit together, old man.
I hate Barca, though.

Re: Back of the Net! - The Football Thread
Those figures are helped by playing in the Europa though, still hasn't scored 10 in the league for Chelsea. Amazing considering he was just about the best striker in the world when he was at Liverpool.Dan Dando wrote:Re: Torres - Being a Liverpool fan... he's obviously not my favourite person in the world but that's a teensy bit harsh in my opinion, he scored 22 goals last year.

Re: Back of the Net! - The Football Thread
Yeah, I suppose you're quite right there. Plus I guess 22 goals isn't that great considering he played more than 60 games last year and he had the likes of Oscar, Mata, Hazard and Lampard trying to assist him. Maybe he was more in his element at Liverpool as... besides Gerrard... he was the only star-man in an attacking sense, but then he had some unpleasant injuries towards the end of his time at Liverpool which hurt his speed a little.Ubik wrote:Those figures are helped by playing in the Europa though, still hasn't scored 10 in the league for Chelsea.

Re: Back of the Net! - The Football Thread
He's been in ridiculously good form for several months, it's no coincidence that both Mourinho and Ancelotti both had him starting. Kept Real in it against United last season.
