The AAE-C football thread - 2014/15 season

[thatguy]

Boooooooooo. WE all know Airdreonians are the top team in Scotland(and the world)

Got tired of delusions of adequacy, so I thought I'd try delusions of grandeur.

[cHooBeyDoo]

I think you can safely say that Celtic have already won the season before it even starts , seems unfair to the other teams, but it's the sad truth

Ohhhhh Bojan is a Stokie,
He signed from sunny Spain,
He used to play for Barca,
But Stoke is just the same.

He used to love the Nou Camp,
But now he loves the Brit,
Cus Neymar's overrated,
& Messi's f*cking sh*t

Come on Stoke!!!

Wrap him up in cotton wool and don't let Adam, Shawcross or Huth anywhere near him in training! Heck of a player if you can keep him fit.

Actually he's probably safe from the poor excuse for a footballer and a man that is Charlie Adam, he only seems to target Spurs players. Bale two or three times, Parker, Paulinho... I'm beginning to lose track of the amount of potentially career-ending challenges, if you can call them that, he inflicts on our players. Anyone would think he still holds a grudge over the transfer that never was.

@john2k5 - interesting article on Bojan written before his transfer to Stoke below. Let's hope you see the best of him.

Why haven't Spurs signed a left back yet? Lots of talk on the fan sites that Ben Davies is coming from Swansea, but I don't know much about him.

I'll agree Adam is dirty, but all is forgiven for the screamer he put past The Sh*t last season. Shawcross is one of the most professional defenders in the country and a credit to our club. He's far from dirty, but I wouldn't expect a Londoner to see it after all the tripe written in your local rags.

Huth is filthy though, can only see him playing a bit part next season, but he did what we needed him to when our backs were against the wall. Hero.

Read that a couple of weeks ago, very good read, I think he's going to be fantastic for us.
Davies is a cracking left back, not scared to go past his man, would really like him at Stoke, will be just what you need.

I really rate Shawcross and would be happy to see him in a Spurs shirt and playing for England. We need to stop messing around with the likes of Cahill and Jagielka and get Shawcross and Caulker in ASAP. But when he tackles someone they tend to stay tackled

I think Davies and Vorm to Spurs with Gylfi and 5m heading to Swansea is pretty much a done deal, should all be tied up and announced in the next week or so, perhaps sooner for Davies as there has been pics/videos featuring him out in the states training with the squad.

Davies will be the best left back we have had for decades, the lad is already a massive improvement on Rose in attack as well as defence, not that it is difficult to be a better defender than Rose, and will only get better.

I don't think there is much separating him from Luke Shaw, but as he is a couple of years older (at 21 he is still incredibly young for a full back), Welsh rather than English and hasn't come from a club with the rep Soton have for producing players he has been much better value. If he and Vorm were our only signings this summer, I'd be happy.

Our Ryan's going nowhere anytime soon, straight from the horse's mouth. He's just had a little boy and is married to a local girl, who happens to be friends with my sister from her Uni days, they've got no intention of uprooting the family just yet. Sorry!
Really hoping to keep hold of Begovic for a year or two more at least too!

Caulker is a cracking CB, should have been those two for England at the WC.

[ronaldo]

Robert Huth is a outstanding defender in his day as good as anyone he is still a legend down in the Boro

[geordie_vaper]

shawcross? hes the cb right?

he seems decent dont know why people are screaming and shouting about him though? nothing special i think

its easy to shine when the rest around you are average i guess.

Oh he's something special mate, watched him develop week in week out over the last few years, he's been the rock that we built our promotion side around and has progressed season on season to become our captain.

He makes average defenders like Huth and Wilson look far better than they actually are as he's usually doing the work for 2 players. Watch him for 90 minutes and you'll see for yourself. He reads the game brilliantly and rarely puts a foot wrong. He'll get better and better too. He would honestly walk into your back 4, he's far, far better than what you have atm.

Future England captain, if Wenger hadn't tried to destroy his career over an accident I'm certain he'd already be in the setup.
