Originally posted by Tirau DanDan- i am afried the so called top 4 dont always produce the best football.
The FA Cup semis replayed on free tv here and those teams produced the worst football I've had the displeasure to witness in my life....total and utter rubbish.
ofcourse there are some exceptions, the pool/chelsea and pool/arsenal gome were very good- althoiugh the later was more to the score line then the skills displayed on the pitch,
Pool were all over arsenal but just could not stop the gooners scoring at the other end (well one player anyway!)
Originally posted by JamesqtRidiculous! Arsenal have had a dismal season. Boring. Their only saving grace at the moment is Andrei Arshavin, which was a genius signing by Wenger. Arshavin should've been playing in the PL for years, but the English clubs wouldn't sign him because he was too "small" for the English game. So, having three or four good games this season doesn't make Arsenal "by far and away" the most exciting team to watch.
True but two of the top 4, ManU and Arsenal are by far and away the two most exiting teams to watch in the PL!
Chelsea are more interesting to watch, Liverpool (scored the most goals this season) are more interesting to watch, Villa are more interesting to watch, and at the beginning of the season, even Hull were more interesting to watch.
Arsenal are interesting to watch when they play in the CL, but that's about it. They're really missing cohesion the rest of the time.
Man Utd are frustratingly boring to watch. They always play the referee instead of playing the game.

So Ferguson hasn't spent big money on Rooney 5'8" or Tevez 5'6" or Rossi or the Da Silva twins. He also hasn't consistently played Gary Neville and Paul Scholes for years.
Your bias is making you totally ridiculous, which seems to be a recurring team amongst Liverpoo fans.
The reason why he wasn't playing for a top European team was because he was unheard of before the last international tournament, and then after that, crazy money was being spoken of, for an oldish player.
Only a blinkered clown would say that watching the likes of Vidic, Giggs, Ronaldo and Rooney was "frustratingly boring".

Originally posted by hopscotchIn the last few games you's have been interesting to watch but for the majority of the last few years you's have been a very boreing team to watch...the hoof the ball up the field to the futherest man forward is the Liverpool norm and THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE of how ManU play!
Liverpool are more interesting to watch...
Man Utd are frustratingly boring to watch. They always play the referee instead of playing the game.
Since the days of Cantona Utd have always played wonderful football, which is one of the reasons why you find millions of people that don't support ManU watching ManU play! (Yes like all teams in the world theirs the odd dull game).
playing the referee...now your getting really silly and quite pathetic...Oh yeah Ferguson has won 10 PL titles, the champions league twice, 5 FA cups from playing the referee, sure their could be no other explanation, it's not possible that this is due to them having great players who play well together...sounds like the dissapointmant of realising you's aren't going to win the league again is getting to you!
Originally posted by RagnorakWell, they should've heard of him. He was playing for Zenit (and winning UEFA cup among others) and Russia for many years. That's what the football scouts are for.

Your competitors are tripping themselves up and that is the only reason for the odds tipping in your favour
Originally posted by MctaytoWell what more can we do then win against whatever team we come up against? In order to win the league all you need to do is be more consistant than the other 19 teams, nothing more is needed!

Well in fairness besides a 4-4 draw against a very good team Liverpool certainly aren't currently tripping themselves up, for the first time in 19 years they have come close to winning the league!
