QUOTE(cursed @ Mar 27 2007, 11:18 AM) is that why u support chelsea now  ?? true was a legend in the past..i used to like him...but then he was bigger than the club...and the gaffer will not take such a stance...sure he did score alot of important goals...but then the english press like to find a scapegoat.. and this going to america to promote football..i dun really believe that...250 million is a lot of money..and i'm sure posh spice will be nudging his husband to go there..and once his there..he for sure will get alot of deals which means more money.. he was getting ahead of himself..not bcuz of his way of thinking..but more to his wife...she ruined him..not football wise..but prolly making decisions for him i think i used 2 b a normal girl who idolized him too.... c. ronaldo is not a likeable player....i hate him since d WC 2006..n was surprised 2 find out that he's actually man u player...but man u fans sure like him ofcz, he create penalty opportunity... i'm not so in2 football....i'm more in2 f1, whereby i watch every race...i put up d chelsea logo n claimed i'm a chelsea supporter becoz i like terry, n nobody else...in fact, i dun watch much football matches is true that posh is d 1 responsible for all this....in fact, beckham manage 2 b so famous n sustained d fame is becoz he dated posh spice...remember d days when spice girl was d most popular n dominate d chart....every tabloid is full of their gossips.....even spice girl had been demolished.....posh is definately a great 'star manager'....if his wife is some1 else, i dun think he would turn out 2 b such an icon This post has been edited by Amanda85: Mar 27 2007, 11:54 AM

QUOTE(cursed @ Mar 27 2007, 01:51 PM) i agree...if his wife was a different person...perhaps he may be still in united  ..and yes well as supporters we backed our team..thats what we should be doing..even if it was the bad or the good..but i wouldnt expect to find alot of female supporters around malaysia  ..i know theres a number of them but wouldnt outnumber the male supporters..but well this is the present. david beckham is in his twilight of his career.. he wants to do wat he please..then let it be..cuz there will be other football iconics that will replace him..but for hardcore fans..we based a player's greatness by his skill and what he brings to the game..ronaldo has that in abundance..sure u think he dives? and u think hes the main culprit for rooney's sending off?..all media frenzy..why he still to be blame cuz ppl in england wont forgive him..plzz...i hope they just get over it and see whats there in front of their faces.... v back our own player, tat's true....but in football, i really wish to c honesty....not juz becoz d rooney issue...oso about d way a draw was solved wit a penalty i doubt if there would b any player that can b such an icon like beckham...can u imagine his biblio was translated in 14 diff languages? n most of his fans were not western, is asia......n d most miracle part is tat ppl who dun watch football knows him....like my grandpa who know nothing about sport...but he'll tell u he knows who bekham is..(sounds weird, rite? coz my grandpa wouldn't know who is zidane or ronaldo) This post has been edited by Amanda85: Mar 27 2007, 02:10 PM

QUOTE(cursed @ Mar 27 2007, 02:09 PM) then how would u want it to be settled in wat way  ...jousting? or a duel lol its the rules of the game and sure it seems unjustified..but its the beautiful game..there may be drama,displeasure but thats what the great game is all bout  ..even if u  ...just take it wif a chin and move on. there are honest players who just go about their way and just want to play football..take for example Paul scholes..i dun he cause any arguements..he just carries on doing what he does best..thats honesty for u..wat more could u ask for?? there were time when english football was clean....i think is due to d invasion of foreign players that introduce this...n i was purely piss off wit cheaters... n nowadays, referee r so dumb as if they couldn't justify whether is a 'drama' or accident....i think some player out there can definately win themselve an 'oscar' reality really sucks....dun get me wrong, i'm not purely talking about c.ro..i'm refering to d football itself This post has been edited by Amanda85: Mar 27 2007, 02:17 PM

QUOTE(cursed @ Mar 27 2007, 02:22 PM) so thats what u dislike..i understand..there are so many cheaters in the game..but we cant stop the influx of foreign players coming in..but there is the foreign player ruling that would be implemented..but then IMO the EPL wouldnt be entertaining.. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Dont Ge Me Wrong..There Are Chelsea,Arsenal,Liverpool Players Who Dives And Play Acting we all know that(in the spoiler) the ref's are human as well..they could only see whats in front of them and ur asking them to make a decision in a split second not easy..try being in their shoes..its all part of the game  ..im sure there will be technology introduce to curb this matter..IF the FA,FIFA,UEFA federations wouldnt want this issues to go out of hand. divers r everywhere...i did not particular accuse certain club only. tat's y i alwiz wonder wat's d reason dat they doesn't wan to use video playback as evidence in justifying a match EPL won't b entertaining.?? yeah...coz d football had become entertainment, not a sport itself.....spectator like to watch drama... like a brawl after match would b exciting

QUOTE(Duke Red @ Mar 27 2007, 02:45 PM) No offence dude, but Becks isn't exactly the brightest spark around. He is only making money because he has people on his payroll to think and plan his career for him. His Hollywood looks has worked wonders for him. His best career move was probably to marry then Spice Girl, Victoria who helped boost his fame in Hollywood. They appeared on every tabloid and suddenly people who haven't heard of football knew of Beckham. He is highly salable and therefore wanted by top brands to endorse their products and top clubs to boost ticket sales, tv viewership and merchandise sales. This is just an example : David Beckham (DVDs), who plays for Real Madrid has apparently revealed that the math problems posed in his six year old son Brooklyn's homework left him scratching his silly empty head. Speaking to The Mail On Sunday, Beckham waffled: "Their homework is so hard these days. It's totally done differently to what I was teached (sic) when I was at school, and you know, I was like, 'Oh my God, I can't do this.'"and not forgetting last night's classic line from the boy Beckham............ ".........well the good thing about being out injured now is that I can't get injured in the run up to the World Cup...."And this man is our Captain! I can honestly say that footballers aren't the smartest blokes around and Becks is on of them. yea, if they r smart they won't b playing football....they would b in ivy league uni... as i had said....posh is d 'manager' of all this stuff....from choosing wat type clothes that he need to wear till that he need to leave old trafford to become even more famous Added on March 27, 2007, 2:55 pmQUOTE(cursed @ Mar 27 2007, 02:41 PM) Well what i meant is entertainment value+Without foreign players will make it less entertaining..as an evidence look at the england match vs israel..it was a dull 0-0 game.. i think d match was dull becoz of d manager.....

QUOTE(cursed @ Mar 27 2007, 02:59 PM)  for sure .....and i went to sleep when i saw 5 mins of the game..there was no spark or nething from any of the players..and ppl are saying J.T and ur fav player can help spark england to life..but come on..what did they do ..long pass and it just go straight back to the defence..the players were out of position...i was more entertained watching portugal hammering 4 goals against belgium..but this is israel..sure they are a reasonable team.. and if football players were smart and stayed in school..they wouldnt be playing football..but if they were smart and passionate bout playing..thats a different story afterall jt is juz a defender...i wonder y ppl would said he can help to spark d team... nowadays, i prefer watching germany.... (haha....definately not portugal)

QUOTE(Duke Red @ Mar 27 2007, 03:45 PM) When you are solid at the back, it gives managers and players alike the confidence to go forward more. When you have a crap defence, players drop back deeper to help out. Defenders can provide the team with some spark. Some of the great captains were defenders such as Franz Beckenbauer, Franco Baresi, Marcel Desailly, Paolo Maldini and more recently Cannavaro. haha...probably i doesn't know anything about spark stuff... but i juz know tat Jt is a great defender...i notice it during d WC...if not becoz of his great saves...i doubt england can reach d quaterfinals....one of d memorable 1 was when he himself dropped into d goal itself unlike ferdinand, as if he worried his hair might get messed up..

QUOTE(cursed @ Mar 27 2007, 03:51 PM) u mean great blocks  ....he is a great defender indeed...but like duke red said...if ur captain isnt performing...the team will be less confident going forward..but if terry motivates the team more perhaps england may perform better..sadly i dun think it will happen often if d manager himself can't motivate them....wat do v expect frm d players  mclaren is worst than sven...
