Its seriously good stuff. There have been a couple of times where I've read a post and believed it before realising who posted it. Makes it sound legit [emoji23]Santi wrote:How much time do you spend making this guff up?

Welbeck was a deadline day signing because Giroud got injured.
The f**k you talking about.
No he wasn't.
We were looking at strikers anyway, wasn't that the year we were supposed to buy Higuain? not sure.
regardless we knew we were in for someone, its just they waited till the 11th hour bargain basement and its not the first time they did that either so don't act like it was a one off.
The Black Cats were keen to re-sign Welbeck, a Premier League winner in 2013, while Tottenham were also interested.
But he has joined Arsenal, who are without striker Olivier Giroud for up to four months after he broke a leg.
The Gunners were not expected to sign a replacement for the Frenchman, but manager Arsene Wenger said on the eve of deadline day the club remained "very active" in the transfer market.

The defence starts with the ball in their 6 yard box, facing towards their own goal, and the strikers and midfielders all stand a few metres behind the 18 yard line. Unai then counts down “3,2,1, CHAAARRRGGGEEE!!!” and on the yell, the midfielders and strikers have to frantically sprint as fast as possible to the defenders to try and win back possession. The aim of the defenders is to absorb pressure before working the ball to the wings and then stampeding up field.
Reportedly players like Özil, Auba, Laca etc. aren’t all too keen on these types of drills hence the slight unrest between them and Unai.

We are the new West Ham ... second tier signings, old men, young kids that's the arena that we are now shoping in ...
If none of the overpaid, under-performing players are prepared to leave then this is our future for the next two or three years ... sack The Don? we'll be lucky if he stays the full season, stuck with this squad and with fans already on his back, what realistic chance has he got?
