lol, Who needs David Luiz when you've got JT sprinting 80 yards on the counter. Looked a yard or so offside, but no matter ...

Ex-teammate's ex girlfriend at the time, but the jokes are warranted I suppose.

Giggs much more deserving of scorn imo.

 
Sorry to go back but I still don't see what some United supporters see in P. Jones. I don't care if Rojo should have covered for him and I don't care that one of the midfielders should have been marking Sessigion - WHAT THE #### WAS HE DOING???

 
I just accepted a job that allows me to work from home Tuesday or Wednesday and Friday. Which is perfect for my new soccer addiction.

Scared to death of Real Madrid.

 
Its unbelievable what Arsenal are going through with the injuries. Ospina now out for 3 months? With Sczcezcney suspended, they're starting #3 in goal today.

He is actually a good player but oft injured and still a little reckless. As a #1 CB? No, he needs a stronger presence with him. Jones actually has done well when given a specific task like mark x player or play holding MF or right back. He has been moved around into so many positions and often misses games due to injury that I think he gets easily out of sorts. When he plays in central defense, which he says is his preferred position, he gets caught up into the MF allowing holes like the goal. And Rafael did hold the striker on, but Jones should not have gone.

At the moment I would rather have him then Smalling or Evans sitting in there. Although Blackett and McNair have both shown better IMO as well.

If everyone is fit I would almost like to see Rafael, McNair, Rojo, Blackett as the back 4. Too young? Maybe. Although I expect Chelsea to eat them alive no matter who is back there, although if Costa isnt fit it helps.

Good idea to get them used to the heartache early. Sort of like a vaccination?

This is gonna be ugly :(

Cant be any worse than having your 7 yr old son run through the front door, tearing his bookbag off with the biggest smile on his face yelling Roma!...only to look at the TV and see 5-0 staring back at him...gutted.

So... the Raul to Cosmos thing- uninteresting?

Kind of. I understand he'll also run their academy, which I find more interesting. But I don't find 37 year old strikers playing in the NASL particularly compelling. I'm sure he'll get a few goals simply by camping on the last shoulder and playing not a lick of defense,

I like Jones as a DM but that role is different under LVG than it was under Ferguson or Moyes.
