  1. Like if you drop a pin onto the flagstones at the foot of the Empire State building?
  2. what a knacker that lad is. Wasn't Stevie a big fan of Danny's, or am I conflating him with the hooligan movies?
  3. I thought Ritchie was right sided only? and Aarons is perma-crocked. I wouldn't actually mind Gouffran being given a shot if he proves himself to Benitez in training. Most of his shitshows were because he was out of position or in an unfamiliar role. Pardew had him at Defensive Mid FFS
  4. I hope your wang falls off in the shower.
  5. I'm worried about the left flank. Gamez could be quality, but he might be a radgepacket who gets himself sent off. And we don't have an out and out left sided midfielder other than Thauvin, do we?
  6. Popping up for the Arnhem game, where's good to eat some lunch with my parents? They've quite traditional tastes and it'd have to be fairly easy to walk to from the centre. TIA and FOIA
  7. You mean the Christopher Reeve one, right? I'm hoping that the demand for and subsequent success of Deadpool will breathe life in R-Rated comic book movies, and by extension R-Rated action movies as a whole. I've seen loads of movies that've shied away from the adult ratings for fear of missing out on a big group of potential customers, and they've suffered for it.
  8. Really? I loved the Tunnel and Siberia scenes, thought Black Panther was a scene stealer, thought Antman and Spidey hit the punchlines well too. At least you're not just dismissing it as shit, even though you're really really old.
  9. Screen grab it then you big old megalomaniac, you.
  10. A young loan striker will most likely be as unproven as Armstrong, Mitrovic, Gayle or Perez. Yet you want a 1st team regular, so why would you want a loan striker? A striker, proven at this level, is someone like Ross McCormack who'll cost £10m and it's not a position that I think we need to improve the starter's quality as a priority. Depth, sure, but Mitro, Perez & Gayle should be good enough to get about 50-55 between them. Look at the top goal scorers for the past few seasons; https://www.statbunker.com/competitions/TopGoalScorers?comp_id=420 I mean, Rudy Gestede managed 20 for Blackburn in 14/15 and he's scored less in the 15/16 Premier League than Perez! Hernandez and Gestede both scored for fun in the Championship and both weren't as good as our strikers were in the Premier League.
  11. As DK says, it looks like he's Rafa's 1st choice CB, so I suggested him because I expect him to play a lot.
  12. I'd like another striker to be brought in simply because if Mitro gets a long injury/ban we don't have anyone who can hold the ball up like him. But the standard needn't be greater than Mitrovic (who I think will take to the league as Carroll did) he needs to be a sub. Given that, we wouldn't get a loan signing like Iheanacho because if City let him go they'd want him to start and we can't guarantee that. Is much of your desire to bring in a loan player because you don't fancy Mitrovic (9/22 in the Prem), Perez (13/76), Gayle (15/64) to score goals in the Championship?
  13. It wasn't, but his decline was as sharp as it was unexpected. I think Lascelles is my pick for the captaincy.
  14. That's fair. DK is a good movie, a great movie even, but it's not really competing in the same sport as The Godfather, or Shawshank. That doesn't mean it's shit though. Mind you, I find the common criticisms of Superhero movies odd, people wanting soul or gravitas? It's a Comic Book movie. If someone wants a contemplative movie, why are you settling down for a couple of hours to watch a man in a tight fitting suit throw a physics-defying shield at people? Doesn't mean Captain America: Civil War is a bad movie, it's just not your bag. It's certainly ticks all the technical boxes, it's witty in its own way and it's a perfectly fine was for a grown man to spend a few hours of escapism. But it's superheros, so, y'know, it's for kids and that's that. Often I don't want a weighty movie like Tyrannosaur, I want to watch Iron Man. As Chez once said, sometimes you don't want steak, you just fancy a kebab. Well, I fancy these kebabs quite often. Also Mark Kermode likes them, so stick that up your Scarlet Witch.
  15. At the same time as they're being dismissed because they're comics.
