2016/2017 THE Premier League Thread

[lazypucker]

I am not sure why after Louis van Feaster, Man U brings in Jose Tortorella, who just all talk and can't bring in results (at least not now)...

You compared Tortorella to Mourinho in your analogy?

Is there any relevance there whatsoever?

I want to think that was intended to be in green text, but even in satire it's not really funny.

Yaya Toure's agent going nuclear on Pep and Man City is very entertaining to follow. Too bad he's dooming his client in the process.

not as fun as the cake story back then, but yeah, it's amazing. Yaya's agent is nuts.

Yeah, I dont know what hes thinking.

That being said though, Yaya is never going to get paid more than he is at City. Most clubs dont have the financial resources and hes just not at that point in his career anymore.

So the options are;

* Toure fires his agent
* Agent apologizes
* Status quo, & Toure sits

Yikes.

Where's the Chinese League to bail him out?

Who says he needs to be bailed out? It seems to me that the game plan was:

- Piss off Pep
- Sit
- Get paid

No matter what else happens, if Pep wants to grind his axe against a Player's agent and make Yaya train with the U-10s, Yaya himself has not breached his contract. He still gets paid.

[Senator Clay Davis]

I mean if he actually wants to play again. If he wants to get paid for nothing his strategy is obviously wonderful. If he does wanna play again there will always be China. Hopefully he's cool with black lung though.

Rooney pretty much the only regular who has to play against Northampton today. A good sign maybe.

Incoming Rooney hat-trick to make him totally undropable.

Rooney is the poster-boy for padding his stats.

I still laugh at him being England's top scorer, sure he is but how many of those has he slammed past Moldova or something? How many in actual tournaments against good teams when it actually matters?

Dont get me wrong, hes got a few big goals, but then theres the rest.

And the Pioneer of Political Economics is in net.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Is there going to be a better substitution this year? I'd be surprised.

Rooney and Rojo even looked #### against a League One team today. Unbelievable.

Rashford with another debut goal. Europa League, Premier League, England, U21 England, League Cup ... not bad at all.

[Slava]

Another Manchester Derby for the next round, Spurs at Liverpool, Chelsea at West Ham and Reading at Woolwich Wanderers.

[cam_wmh]

My Blind narrative continued in that Cup Game.

He gave up a brutal foul, that gave them their PK goal.

[devo22]

drop Rooney and Fellaini, put 4 past Leicester in the first half.

it really isn't rocket science.

[nemanja2306]

United looks awesome today.

It doesn't bode well for Rooney, though.
