Jencejyde: For my money...HELL NO! Walcott on 90k? Arsenal has really reached its lows. I watch wallcot and i'm always hoping that he would turn out to be a super world class player (for the sake of AFC, i still hope so) cos like i always say, he has pace and balance(plus he has improved on his ball control). I am unfortunately reminded that overall awareness and intelligence is not taught but developed and some players are just gifted at that.
One of your most productive players over the last 3 seasons is not worth a paltry 90k? Your best player so far this season? Lol you guys may never win a trophy if you keep undervaluing your best performers like this

Jencejyde: whatsoever has to ho much space is between him and his midfield players.... Consitency is another vital point that needs to be pointed out here...How often does Theo turn up in a game??
Last 3 games
3 goals 2 assists
Assist for the only goal
Assist for the only goal

Take out his production and we are talking about 2pts from 9 games tops

This is someone that coulda pouted and held out for an exit while Wenger victimized him he did none of that and has gone on to become arguably your best player so far

Jencejyde: Messi plays upfront for barca, but please look at that young mans positioning and tell me when he has actually been too far away from his midfield(not saying he wont get long balls occasionally, but positioning most of the ninety minutes) at all times plus messi actually presses well on defenders forcing them into making mistakes.
Lol how many players can you compare with Messi in that aspect of the game? See how high you set the bar! Walcott is one of the most hardworking players on the field

Jencejyde: No doubt, Theo's finishing is superb, but to demand a central role is not yet within his ranks from my point of view. I laughed hard when someone said Ronaldo deserves the Ballon Dior...But then again the simple reason why messi won it is not based on pace technique and goals but his overall(I repeat ..."overall"wink ability as a football player. Decision making, consistency, awareness are not qualities that the average football fan would look our for in a player, but when managers are scouting or have to make decisions..its these unquantifiable elements that make their decisions easier.
He is within his rights to demand a central role! How can wastemen like Gervinho and Giroud start at a central role and Walcott can't
8 goals and 6 assists in 9 starts!


Jencejyde: Theo still has time and i hope and believe that he can turn out to actually develop and imbibe these qualities. The greatest players have not been so much about the number of goals they score or how fast they can run but the measure of those unquantifiable elements which they possess and consistently deliver especially on the big occasions.
True there is room for improvement but compared to what you guys can afford and have at the moment Theo is still your best option

Roland17: Ref's allow trash talking in the game, no player is suspended for trash talking, but Melo took it too far by waiting for K.G outside, his motive could not be established even though he claimed he wanted to clear the Air with K.G, but a footage with your coach and security trying to stop you from going further to the team bus of the Celtics does not speak too good thus the suspension.

As for the Lakers, after the loss to the Rockets i concluded they were done with the post season.
Come on its not like he was strapped or sumn. A fine would have been enough or do you actually think they would get physical

Lakers eyeing Evans! Who would they trade for him tho?

Lol these places are not as cool as Germany this time of the year plus with fewer matches it makes more sense to resume a little later so you can finish along with the other leagues

Divisonal Week
Now we get to see the maestros in action hopefully we see much better play this week! Still reeling from the crap dished out by Dalton,Webb,Schaub,Flacco and Luck

Ravens at Broncos: Ahh you hope it doesn't end here for Ray Lewis but it just seems inevitable at this point! Not writing the Ravens off but I don't see where Flacco would have the time to find Anquan Boldin with elite pass rushers like Dumervil and Von Miller. The Ravens over time have had no answer for Peyton Manning even when their D was top 3 calibre you wonder about their odds now. I'm going with the Broncos

Packers at 49ers: Probably the most closely matched game. The 49ers have a very mobile QB who can throw the ball but not as consistently as Rodgers also doesn't have the kind of deep threats Aaron Rodgers possesses at his disposal. The 49ers have to get gully and grimy and limit Rodgers's time on the field somehow I can see them pulling this off! Their win at the Patriots tells me so. I'd take the 49ers on this one

The Lakers have to win at least 32 of their last 46 games to have any hopes of making even 8th seed in the West. Do you really see that happening?? We are talking of one of the biggest busts in history! Haha and they say the 04 Laker team was a bust! At least those ones made the Finals
Hill is now out for the season. Dwight out indefinitely and Pau doesn't look to be back anytime soon.
The only good news perhaps is that Kobe doesn't have to part with half grin grin

Didn't get the rationale behind Melo's suspension tho! If I dissed a ref's wife wouldn't I be suspended? How did they expect Melo to react??

Looks like the Nets where right to fire Avery Johnson afterall! Results are improving
Romance › Re: Are Men Willing To Wait For Sex Till Marriage? by A40(m): 6:39pm On Jan 10, 2013
Personally I can't! Absolutely can't!

Your being a virgin would not make you a better partner or better person. Doesn't mean you can cook better doesn't mean you would wind up a good mother to the kids neither does it guarantee a happy marriage overall! There has to be more to you than your virginity so if that's your only selling point it won't work

Yeske: What's with this opinion that she may be getting it from another dude? Na food? If you understand your lady very well and have agreed on what and what you both want, there should not be lack of trust leading to that statement.
But you never know man! Aren't there ladies that do that

[quote author=Alaba_Slim]It is only in england mediocre/average players are praised/HYPED to the high heavens-lamps,becks,ronnie,etc
how do u XPECT him to be universally appreciated/accepted when all he does is position himself 4 what? outside shot.
Nobody in Football world (xcept those pretenders) respect lamps jus lyk average becks xcept hmmm maybe in CF or EPL.
Lamps should learn 4rm scholes (since it will be hard to learn 4rm zidane,laudrup,pirlo,ronaldinho,) how a midfielder should operate.[/quote]Lamps is quality! Forget sentiments! Maybe he lacks the flair and razzle dazzle but he brings consistency,fundamentally sound and methodical sorta like Tim Duncan in basketball

Ba came on in ten minutes and scored though whistled for offside it was ridiculously close a less vigilant linesman could have missed it. Torres on the other hand barely forced a save in 81 mins! No serious minded coach would insist on starting such a wasteman even at the expense of his job! Its a lose-lose! Damned with him and damned without him

occam: Jackson is a very cunning fox. If he wanted to comeback he would. IMHO, I'm not sure he was 100% committed about coaching this roster. We'll never know why the Lakers decided to go for D'Antoine instead of Jackson
That's my point! He was interested in the job! Very interested! Which means the team could not have been that bad else he would have turned it down immediately.
Its easy to see why the Lakers settled for D'Antoni
1. Lower salary
2. Smaller and more manageable personality (Jackson wanted absolute control)
