Joe Cole and Glen Johnson does not raise their arms when they score in respect of their old fans, in their old arena. That is ****ing old-school class, instead of this imbecile taking of your shirt ****.
RVP didn't dare celebrate scoring against Arsenal either, and he wasn't even in the Emirates Stadium.

The logo is a gorilla, but what is the proposed team name? It might be innocuous, it might be a bad idea.

Silverbacks. Apparently the Atlanta zoo just got some or something. Not exactly anything creative.

There's been talk of Junihno from Vasco or Kaka
I honestly wouldn't mind them waiting til the summer before signing one. Get some more depth in the midfield especially on the wings.
Well see tho

Don't expect a 3rd DP anytime soon

Well I watched the Liverpool highlights. They looked pathetic. Such poor defending today.

Kaka has been shot down endlessly over and over again.
Did Marquez ever play close to a full season?

****.
Oh, well. I'll completely admit that I was getting a bit nieve after seeing that Liverpool was only four points out of fourth last week. Today's match proved that the Reds still have a long way to go.
Not pinning this on Rodgers because I highly doubt I would do anything differently in his position. Our attacking three without Borini is a world-class player in Suarez, then two promising kids. It's going to take another transfer window for Rodgers to acquire more talent. The philosophy is good, the style of play is good, and the kids have been doing a good job of keeping us afloat in the table, but we desperately need to make more signings of quality, experienced talent. No one said the rebuilding process would happen overnight.

No, combine that with awful play, lack of commitment to the team, and gigantic salary and you get the worst DP in MLS history.

Hilarious coming from worst big signing in league history RT @JuanG_Arango Rafa Márquez said MLS was still "an amateur tournament."
He is usually anti-Red Bull but hit the nail on the head with this one

Arsenal vs Reading should be interesting .
Reading are always competitive and Arsenal are struggling . I like Walcott , but I do believe he will leave come January. (Edit: Looks like he is playing ST today)
edit: Nevermind. Arsenal are dominating. Reading look uninterested

Solid win, and a hat trick from Cazorla is always welcome.
