Great assesment, If Man U can keep up their current run of good form (minus last weeks Derby carling cup match) they very well could take home the league title once again. It will be interesting to see, however how they respond to a hectic schedule with the Carling Cup and the FA Cup but I feel as if they are one of the few teams with the depth that could handle it. Lets see if Cristiano will back up his assesment that he will return to form very soon because him and Rooney are crucial to this team's success IMO. I'm just curious as to what road they will take in reference to Carlos Tevez.

Meh. EPL. :sleep1: It's no wonder so many Americans think the sport is boring when they're told the standard is the English variant.

Kinda disheartening when a guy with a handle of Messi starts a thread on EPL.

As compared to the non-physical flower power play of Southern Europeans and South Americans? If I wanted to see a bunch of diving and sissy mofos trying to act I'd go to Broadway.

EPL is how football is meant to be played.

Your average "beautiful game" team would probably to lose the ICF under real football conditions

Last I checked Gerrard and Cronaldo didn't play on the continent mate. :wink2:

lol, attempting to troll somebody whose neither Irish nor Catholic ...

Pretty pathetic and a maybe even bit racist to assume my religion and nationality just because there's a Celtic avatar. And then to attempt a lame character assassination based on it.

I guess that means you don't want to talk about the diving antics in EPL?

I've never seen someone with a Celtic avatar that isn't in some way Irish or Catholic or just a straight up Rangers hater

Well, Rangers are shite. You've got me there. :biggrin:

I probably won't care about Celtic after this season though. When it comes to professional sports, I tend to stick with players more than franchises. It's all Modells' fault.

No fear of getting dinged here. I know the game. You don't end up with the Celtic if you're not Irish or Catholic. I'm not white so my ties to this are tangential. No one ends with a Celtic avatar on accident.

uh huh... maybe you should check the quote under my handle and the pic in my profile. If I was into the Irish and Catholic connections, shouldn't I be a domer? :shake: :crazy:

Though I'd have to say a proper rendition of Fields is stirring. I don't mind "[censored] the queen" (personally I wouldn't touch that with a 10' pole though), but the real Celtic people would probably do themselves some favors by dropping the IRA bits.

No, but I lived there for a couple years and married in... and of course where I was introduced to the sport.
JLeague doesn't have nearly as good players as EPL (or europe in general)... but I'd say it's definitely far more entertaining.
