cantona's got a good shot on him. and no i didn't mean the goals..

Well there was that Ronaldo guy…..
and then there was also that
stormzylukaku guy.. so i hope this nobody will be chasing any first touches down the m25..Well I'm not sure if I'm understanding what you said correctly, but it sounds like you're saying that not many foreign players do well in the premier league? I don't think that could be further from the truth. This would imply that most of the best players in the league are UK based which is just not true. The premier league is full of quality foreign players and is probably the most non-domesticated league of the big 5. If you look at the player of the season awards over the course of the Premier League the vast majority of those players were foreign players.
Ruud, Cantona (as Giles mentioned), Ronaldo, Henry, Van Dijk, Salah, Aguero, Schmeichel, Ljungberg, Suarez….the list goes on.
Maybe I misunderstood what you were saying, but to say foreign players don't do well in the premier league is just not an accurate statement.

i think what i'm trying to imply was that there's a lot of brilliant foreign players in the premier league. However, while that is the truth, there's also a bunch of foreign players that struggled to adapt to the pace and physicality of the premier league. What i'm just trying to say is, let's give them a few games under their belt before we try and predict how we'll they'l do in the EPL..

Thanks for the assist [emoji1433][emoji1433][emoji1433]
You guys are 25 points ahead. Don’t think any “assist” was necessary

When the PFA looked for someone to run their PR, did they choose a candidate who had headed the ball a few too many times? I don't think I have ever seen such a pathetic argument, unfortunately I susect the aresholes who dreamt it up have been congratulating themselves on their flash of brilliance ever since…..

Ahhh there is even a soccer forum here!!!
I am a AFC Ajax Amsterdam fan, please don’t bully me with the lost EL final against ManU, the lost half final CL against Spurs and please be kind to me about the debacle in the group stage CL against The Blues. Besides that I am fine…. [emoji23]

isn't players pay cut between the clubs, the agents and their players anyway? i know the EPL has no salary cap unlike some leagues (ML, A-League etc.) so why do they even have a say?

PFA is the basically the players trade union. Looks after their interests.
ahhh right. i suppose i'd rather a player offer their sacrifices than to force them to sacrifice. i'll have no doubt most would do the right thing anyway..

@scooter that was filmed right at the top of The Kop, named after The Spion Kop, a hillside in South Africa where a battle was fought in 1900, and which it resembles.
When I was a lad I would go there to stand together with 30,000 others and sing silly songs while watching the football, getting pee’d on and wondering what all the funny smelling smoke around me was (because it wasn’t tobacco).
In 1994 it was turned into an all seater stadium (about 12,000), and was the single tier stand at a football stadium in the UK, until about a year ago. It’s still the best.

So, what you're saying is, to experience Anfield in all it's glory, I'd want to be pissed on at the top of the Kop.
Kinky.
