European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by sleekdot(m): 5:59pm On Nov 14, 2012
nateevs: The second piece is just a joke for a number of reasons.

1. The writer of the article assumes there's "only one" sort of run to make in that area - the one he (the writer) deems the correct move.
2. The writer assumes that even though the wide player had only moved about 2 yards towards the line (very clear to see from the 2 pictures), the striker should have double that distance into the box. How possible is that in real time? Bearing in mind that we are talking about max 3 seconds of play time, the writer wants Torres to cover an enormous amount of ground as at the second picture. The writer assumes that the Torres is quicker than the wide player.
3. The writer assumes that the striker may not have anticipated a cut back, which if happened, would have turned out to be a brilliant run.
4. The writer fails to document what final ball was produced. As seen in picture 2 of the wide, with his left foot could have dinked it in the path of Torres, setting him up for a left foot volley. However, with showing the final ball, it immature to conclude that Torres' run was bad. It's even worse to blame Torres for the breakdown of the move when a clever player would have found an inch perfect player.

My point is, with careful selection, a bunch of gif images can make a good player look and conversely, make a very bad player look good. The analysis is subjective at best.
You are the one that doesnt know the basics.

On that second move

1. Its a basic rule in such situation someone has to make the near post run which would open things up, the defenders run towards him, if he beats them to it at the right angle he can have a near post tap in. Chicharito doesnt need to be told this.

2. Its basic common sense that Bertrand would slow down else if he continues at that pace he can as well run off the field or lose composure to deliver a good cross and its the players in the middle aka Torres that has to increase their speed and make things happen

3. By drawing the defenders with him the middle would have freed up. I have seen lampard score from this sort of position several times when Drogba makes the near post run and Lampard is free just inside the box to pick his spot and shoot. Thats a basic thing in football except when you have a mediocre striker

4. Torres Waiting for the cutback is stupid in that situation when there are 2 defenders also waiting for the cutback. the sensible thing was to run for the near post. He should only wait for a cutback Only if Bertrand was able to beat his man and bear him on goal. If bert did that then the 2 defenders in front of Torres would have to run to cover the near post and block Bertrands free path and shot which would leave Torres free for a cutback

5. When Torres now finally decided to make the run, where was he running toward? Away from goal!! Is that not retardded? The trajectory of Torres run would take him towards the skysport banner considering the position of the keeper the post and the space left, he has made an otherwise simple chance much harder to hit

. For the first chance Torres has some blame but not as much as the second one. The first one was lost because Torres doesnt have the Chicharito instinct nothing I can blame him for. He doesn't have it such chance requires a high level of poaching skills cos the margin of error (to be offside is thin) and requires Offside specialist like hernandez, Inzaghi, Nistelrooy to hit that

I would ask for his Police clearance, drug test, Blood test, HIV result, hair follicle test, Breath test, IQ test, His SAT scores, GRE scores, current GPA, Statement of Purpose, His career goals, His current Bank account, His projected Bank account in 5, 10, 40 yrs and how he hopes to get there, Whom his parents are and why he feels he needs to date my own daughter of all people considering the risk it involves knowing that I have a hunting license

We would now watch the movie of How Samuel Doe was killed and ask him if he can recognize the younger version of me in the video

There has never been anything good from The New York Times about Biafra. The media organization stopped short of sending its staffs as soldiers to fight for Nigeria. It is not a surprise New York Times allowed a goofy bit writer to conjure such a nonsensical crap.
In summary New Yorkers also hate Igbos just like Yorubas, Hausas Beroms, Ijaws, Malaysians Tivs, etc

FamilyRe: Debrief, cotton101 and those that came out alive. Got A Few Questions For You. by sleekdot(m): 12:03am On Oct 31, 2012
davidylan: Sigh. I answered the question as early as page 30. Sometimes you shld read before making hasty conclusions.

Again i dont understand the correlation between your harping about violent women and this thread in general. Where did the women here tell you they were pulling knives on their husbands? In the domestic abuse cases i have ever seen, none were down to a woman being violent. It seems to me that you are posting on an entirely different subject. Perhaps you would like to open a separate thread to address your issues.
Earlier in this thread someone asked you that do men just wake up and start beating their spouse and you replied YES that some men just do that. Which I dont believe 100%

You were also of the opinion that whatever a woman did is inconsequential in cases of abuse, She is always right.

Here now you are telling us from the bolded that abuses you have seen are always 100% the insane husband just waking up and deciding to exercise with the wife whic I think is ridiculous BTW.

Dont you think some cases of abuse might have been triggered by an equally "insane woman"? or Insanity is the exclusive preserve of men?

The example I stated in my previous post, If the man who was killed have struggled and overpowered his wife to collect thee knife, REAL men like you would have come forth to tell us how he isnt a REAL man for struggling with a woman despite his life being on the line.

But in the world of absolutes of the REAL men, Never touch a woman under any circumstance.
FamilyRe: Debrief, cotton101 and those that came out alive. Got A Few Questions For You. by sleekdot(m): 11:46pm On Oct 30, 2012
^^

If thats the case then maybe we should all just default and blame every victim of abuse the same question "Where did you get your spouse", or other women come in and sanctimoniously declare "I would never marry such a man" , "Were you blind during dating", "You were attracted by 6 packs, money, fame and hunger to be called MRS"
FamilyRe: Debrief, cotton101 and those that came out alive. Got A Few Questions For You. by sleekdot(m): 11:36pm On Oct 30, 2012
davidylan: Your point being? undecided
Like i said earlier, you're simply scraping the bottom of the logical barrel in a desperate bid to justify your own inherent proclivity for pushing your spouse around just to show that "i am the man".
Simple question you have been dodging since. In a situation where you are being threatened would you attempt to save your own life when a woman is the attacker or you default to the REAL men dont touch women under any condition

Below is one of the situation we are made to believe doesnt happen and are just conjectures

Queens woman stabs husband to death: police
ERIK BADIA
Wednesday, September 05, 2012

A woman has been busted in the stabbing death of her husband at their Queens home early Wednesday, police sources said.

The alleged killer, 38, plunged a knife into the neck of her 45-year-old spouse after they argued in their home on 145th Ave. in Jamaica, sources said. The man died at the scene on the quiet south Queens block after the 4:30 a.m. attack.

davidylan: I think at this point i will simply ignore sleekdot and coogar's posts... winning an argument should not come at the expense of common sense.
You mean its common sense to imagine that a man can after watching Super Eagles, wake up his wife and beat her mercilessly without anything happening before but its not commonsense that some women can be violent to the extent of threatening physical injuries to their husband and the only way out is by the use of a superior force by the man
