Arsenal/Miky is Voter

Atletico Madrid v Real Madrid
Barcelona v PSG
Bayern Munich v Porto
Chelsea v Man Citeh
Dortmund v Juventus

Oh yeah. And Cherries. All my kids after all

All more believable than Twist and Nad.

Anyway, Nad what about your "real" brother. He used to appear on here all the time backing you up

It solely depends on your definition of 'real' afro. Are we not all as humans, considered brothers of this humble planet. Also I forgot Don Corleone187 password.

In this instance, my definition is you have the same mum or dad, or in a lot of cases both

My real brother has never been on these leagues. However my 'real' brother sometimes creates accounts to wum. He's a real nasty piece of work my 'real' brother.

It's obvious Nadeems brother is really Nadeem pretending to be his own brother.

Where's Gregers gone? He was a good kid, he and Miky would have got on well, Marky can you get Russ back? Hero you must have a few friends on this site that would like to play manager games.

The 'politeness' between miky and gregers would have been fun. At least next time you try to pick on miky, gregers would be there backing him up against your Chelsea hatred.

The resemblance between Gary Monk and Andre Schurrle is uncanny. David Luiz got murked yet again last night. Red Bull does not give you wings.

They started showing Breaking Bad on freeview. Sky channel 160 at 11PM every night. Yesterday was the first episode so all you poor folks that can't be asked paying for your netflix and whatnot, can watch it for FREE. Praise The Sun!

Yeah it's on Spike TV Watched the 1st yesterday got 2nd on record...

Same here nando, although there was a bit too much T&A for my liking, but I'm not complaining. Also Viva you better not spoil it you son of a woman!

We need sheep to wake this league up a bit.

Thank you for volunteering Mighty. Nadeem you can do the questions (good questions please)

I won't spoil it for you.

1. A type of Greek food
2. The capital of Zimbabwe
3. What time is bed time?
4. An annoying popular song
5. What position will Everton end up at the end of the season
6. An overated man united player
7. A football team that has pink shirts as their home kit

Answers to trebs whenever he feels like setting a deadline.

I can't take answers off my phone. Only got some from Azzmeister in any case.

Seems a bit of an odd way to go when you are a manager short

Don't have the time mate.

I said to Nadeem I wouldn't be able to take one full time. He suggested I do transfers and he does tactics. Suits me.......

It's like SNP and Labour I suppose.

Hi Nadeem, the best team did win yesterday there's no doubt about that.

I wouldn't really be boasting about beating the second worst United team in Premier League History, I'd be embarrassed playing 4 defensive midfielders to beat an injury ravaged United. Spending all that money and you play like a fancy Stoke, if that's what Mourinho is about no thanks.

Mourinho was rejected by United. I love how United are on your mind 24/7. Real Madrid are backed by the Government, falsely claimed the King's of Europe. You can keep your Madrids and Barcelonas.

Crawley won though. Support the real Red Devils Viva

I've been keeping my eye on Crawley, out of the relegation zone. You reckon you'll stay up?

Still in the balance. Up to 50 points which was the target, but now 50 points wont be enough! Got to hope Notts County and Leyton Orient lose their games in hand tomorrow, then I'm off to Peterborough away on Saturday.

Depending on ours and other results, we could be mathematically safe on Saturday evening and we could be virtually relegated on Saturday evening!

Chelsea were Poopie, let's be fair. United should have won the game, Rooney missed the best chance. Shaw played pretty well too, the best I've seen him play since he moved.

I disagree Soddy, Chelsea 100% deserved the victory. We kept the ball well but we couldn't create anything. Chelsea stifled us proper and they took their chance when it came.

Rooney should have been played further up after 60 mins or so. Everyone's taking about Shaw performance but I don't think he was that good, Chelsea didn't offer much of a threat so he didn't have much defensive work to do, he played well going forward.

I don't think deserved is the word, they scraped and clawed a win out of a game where they were really poor. If that was West Brom, say, people would say they clung on and got lucky. Because it's Chelsea, it's some sort of tactical mastery and genius defending. Free pass for being turgid and crap, for me.

I applaud you Mr VivaPaulScholes. I thought you would be on an anti Chelsea warpath but you've taken your punishment like a man! I think the Chelsea inside of you is growing and soon you will be a blue. #KTBFF

Hi Nadeem, I'm always honest. Sorry I'll never be a blue.

Bale, Modric, Benzema and Marcelo out of the match vs Atlético tonight. But atletico being atletico, will still probably park the bus.
May the footballing gods have mercy upon us and show the world the path of righteousness will overcome the evil temptation of a bus parking apocalypse. Amen.

Afro hope you still remember the bet we've got on?

What was the dodgy bet viva?

I haven't forgotten. It's quite evenly matched at the moment. Could come down to the game between them.

Both teams are playing Hull (both away)
Both team are playing West Brom (both at home)
United have Palace and Everton away, Arsenal have Sunderland, Chelsea and Swansea at home

Happier to be on Arsenal than United.

Oh yeah it was afro betting Arsenal finishing above man united wasnt it.



Pos Club P GD Pts
1 Chelsea 32 39 76
2 Arsenal 32 31 66
3 Man Utd 33 28 65
4 Man City 33 33 64

Too close to call imo.

Hopefully Chelsea can beat Arsenal but I reckon that'll be a draw, that leaves Arsenal 2 points ahead of us providing we win our games. Everton will be hard they're on a unbeaten run.

So this is what you've been up to viva

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal can have no excuse for not having a productive close-season this summer after he was handed a list of transfer targets by a fan.

The Dutchmanattended the Manchester United Foundation Dream Day, which brings supporters with life-limiting illnesses to meet the manager and players at their training ground.

One such fan handed a list of high-quality players to improve the team with a view to reclaiming the Premier League title next season to Van Gaal and told him "I did some homework for you".

The United boss read out the names - including the likes of Real Madrid superstar Gareth Bale, Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba and PSV's Memphis Depay - before telling the fan: "I take it in mind. You are smart and a very cheap manager."

The list included prices to prise away the targets from their current clubs. "[Mats] Hummels, £36 million," Van Gaal noted, "[Nathaniel] Clyne of Southampton, £15m ... Pogba, £75m ... Bale, £12m ... and Jackson Martinez of Porto, £25m. He didn't tell me who I have to sell but, after a little bit of pushing, I know so it's easy for me. Next year, we are champions!"

The fan who produced the list was delighted to hear Van Gaal read his list, saying: "It was really nice of him to do that. It was like a dream come true."

We will be champions next season.

No offence to Moyes but he was small time on how he approached stuff, LVG you can tell he has managed at the highest level.

He also received a far larger budget than Moyes and delivered little of additional value in a weak year

"He scores when he wants,
He scores when he wants,
It's Little Chicarito, he scores when he wants!"

He obviously didn't want to score for weeks before that

GSC wrote:He also received a far larger budget than Moyes and delivered little of additional value in a weak year

He did recieve a large budget but look at the likes of Fellaini (Moyes signing) Young, Smalling, Valencia, Mata he has improved them from last season. Most of the players that have got us where we are played under Moyes. He has brought confidence into the side which we lacked hugely under Moyes, theres a focus and direction under him, we're a lot more harder to beat now and we don't look as pathetic.

He has taken us from 7th last season to 3rd currently, there was no way we were going to win the title this season and our aim was always top 4, I do agree the competition is weaker this season but we can only beat what's infront of us.

Young, Valencia and Smalling were crap under Ferguson too.

By Afros own admission, Fellaini took a year to start producing for Everton.

I'll give you Mata

You can't use Fergie failing with those players as a pass for Moyes not being able to get the best out of them. LVG has improved them so he deserves the credit. There's no guarantee that Fellaini was going to improve in his second season, Moyes despite working with him at Everton for 5 years didn't know how to utilise him.

I was one of the few that supported Moyes, he wasn't given a proper chance and dissapointed when he got sacked.

You reckon Moyes would have got us top 4 this season? With the resources LVG had?

I think Moyes would have got better results if the players had given him the respect they gave Fergie and LVG. Not Moyes' fault he hasn't won the Champions League before.

Yeah. This is a urine poor PL. Spurs, Liverpool and City all trying their hardest to not get Top 4

LVG is the best manager in World Football.

Moyes isn't.

Im sure Moyes could of stumbled onto a formation that worked too

Viva where are you i need advice

I'm here.

Since the update have you had any issues with your PS4. Cos mine keeps freezing midgame & not ejecting discs anymore.

No I haven't thankfully but a friend of mine told me his disc didn;t eject and that he opened up the front part of the PS4 case and it's been ok since then.

Alright i don't know how to do that Ill give sony a call in morning see if they can do something done what they suggested via livechat but still nothing changes.
