English Premiership 2015/16 Discussion Thread

Nope because like most other people on here they have the brain capacity to not process every single word on here in a literal sense and understand the concept of "figure of speech"

Do you understand any of the above? I'm not sure what else can be done to try and convey this as it was explained from the outset why it was used.

But for some strange unbeknown reason you are simply unable to compute this simple piece of information.

I explained in the very beginning why "his career ended" with the part of him being on the cusp of the elite.

Anyway let's take things like you do then? If Falcao scores and I have to eat my words how do I do that mate? How can I get words off a screen to eat them?

Aka a * figure of speech

 

Falcao was on the cusp of the elite? Behave yourself man fs

He was an outstanding player but no where near one of the best ever:smiley-laughing002:

 

How was he not?

He was an absolute monster at Atletico.

He was the Suarez at Liverpool.
He was the Ronaldo at Man UTD

And then instead of taking that final step to the top like the two above did he did the opposite.

That is undeniable so I really can't see how you can't agree! :smiley-laughing002:

 

Haha fs aye ok then he was up there with the elite of all time

 

@Ordnances: By September we could be looking at Sneijder-Schneiderlin-Schweinsteiger: the Premier League's first ever Pokemon-evolution-path midfield

 

Whats Sneijder like now a days? Not seen him play in a good while.

 

Sneijder isn't signing for United ffs

That's a rumour from like 4 years ago

 

Wow, what in utter * is wrong with you mate? Stop the sparring sessions at the gym, I think you have been punched in head too many times!

Did I say he was the greatest of all time? I said he had the potential to be if he went to a Real/Barca he would have been very capable of knocking in Messi/Ronaldo/Raul/fat Ronaldo numbers.

Are you deliberately not reading and completely misinterpreting every single post of purpose in some sort of * troll attempt?

Or are you indeed just a * mong?

 

Aye he was on the cusp of the elite Your some boy Tim so you are:smiley-laughing002:

 

Stop making that comparison before I blow my brains out.

Larsson wasn't the #1 striker in the world. He made his name with us, how the * was Falcao going to make a name at the mighty Monaco? He completely fell off the map. That's why his move to Man united didn't even feel that sensational. If he moved the season before instead of Monaco ot would have been one f the signings of the decade.

Tim makes sense, I make sense.

You are comparing Larsson and Cabaye to Falcao and just trying very hard to get a bite. You are too immature to try and discuss your point properly.

 

To be fair its not as black and white as the lot of you are making out, there are shades of grey with regards to the Falcao move.

Yes, he obviously went for money, of course. Monaco is also a lovely city/state, whatever. That season he went their average attendance was really high for them. They had an average attendance of 14,500(ish) and this is in a city of 36k! So they weren't playing in half-empty stadiums.

Also, it is nonsense to say he fell off the map just because he went to Monaco. The French league is one of the best leagues in Europe and the world, it's classed in the 'top 5': Spain, Germany, Italy and France. The folk who say its * sound like the brain dead EPL fans who can't remember more than 2- seasons back and are drip fed information from Sky. Conveniently forgetting it has been won by 6 different clubs in the past 8 years - it has only been the past few years that P.S.G. have dominated. The football is unreal at times aswell.

Alot was expected of Monaco. The French league is heavily watched and very popular, he wouldn't and didn't fall of the map. It never did Rodriguez any harm.

 

His move to Man U didn't feel sensational Where were you when the deal was done because from what a got from fans of Man U and other fans was that it was a sensational move.

Also Falcao didn't have to go to Monaco to make a name for himself he was already a household name in world football. And you says the French league is average? And that no matter what a striker does in it is just meh

It's the 5th best league in the world behind Spain, England, Germany and the Italian.


A honestly no trying to get you to bite a couldn't give a * if you do you've just not got a clue pal.

Falcao fell off the map? Wut? Fs he was in the French league playing as well as ever banging in the goals before he got injured.

But it's ok for you to say the French league is average, and what ever a striker does in it is meh:smiley-laughing002: But hey Larsson is ok eh, he was banging the goals in the mighty SPL so that's no meh:smiley-laughing002:

That's me done. No point constantly going over old ground. Nobody's really wrong here just a different of opinion

:bbpd:

 

That average attendance is bullshit (I think) as it's from wiki and that has their highest/lowest and average all the same.

All the stat Sites say around 8k so yeah that is pretty much half empty.

Considering where he was at in his career he moved to a lower quality/watched/supported league. Surely you agree that once he done that he put a barrier in front of his development?

HamEggs was at very different stage of his career/development when he moved.

I think it would be safe to say HamEggs was on Reals radar well before Monaco.

 

Come on, when Falcao was looking to move from Atletico you didn't feel a bit underwhelmed when he went to Monaco? Considering the sides he'd been linked with?

 

I got it from the Ligue 1 website, I thought they'd be pretty reliable.

Honestly, I don't think it harmed his development because how much more development would he need? I'm not saying he's anywhere near as good as Ronaldo but imagine Ronaldo left for P.S.G now, would he be stunted just because he left for a lesser league? Obviously not, for the best players who have already shown their worth and developed, it is merely another move and another pay cheque.

Also you say James was on Madrid's radar, Falcao was on everyones radar too. Going to Monaco never made him invisible, it can't be that James never stunted but Falcao did.

 

Of course, I thought he was better than that. However its not as bad as folk make out.

Im defending the French league more than I'm defending Monaco. :smiley-laughing002:

 

That's fair enough :smiley-laughing002:

I just see where MacEwan is coming from. If he'd moved directly from Atletico to United the deal would have been looked upon as much bigger than the eventual loan deal from Monaco. *, I don't even think his move to Chelsea is that big a deal now! :smiley-laughing002:

 

I think it was still considered pretty big seeing as United deemed him worthy of paying £12m for a loan and £250k a week.

The fans were going mental on social media.

He was pants last year though and his stock has fallen so far.

 

Aye, it was definitely still a big deal, but not as big as it could have been in my opinion had he made a move to a truly large club from Atletico when he was more highly regarded.

 

You mentioned Larsson again, so I'm not listening to you anymore. I explained every point you just made in past posts and you still go on about Larsson, Falcao being amazing before the injury (no better than Rivière) and the French league.
