Worst injury you've ever seen?

[/ QUOTE ]

Personally seen a bunch of ankles break, knees give way and faces get smacked.

This vid has some bad ones. Check out 1:38 I think.

Do you think that the Scotch and the Welsh would prefer to compete internationally with England as a UK team so that they can actually qualify for the World Cup and stuff?

[/ QUOTE ]


the scottish and welsh will never give away their autonomy in the FIFA world. Football means way too much to them for them to be bit players in what would be a nearly all english side

I got a crespo jersey do you know who he is and do you like him?
I considered getting a riquelme jersey as well, what do you think of him?

[/ QUOTE ]

Bump to hear an answer?

[/ QUOTE ]

Go get a Riquelme jersey, hes one of the finest playmakers in the world and perhaps the most unique player in the world. While he lacks pace, his vision and passing is incredible. When he is in form he is probably the only soccer player that could truly dominate games. However, when he is not playing well he will dissappear for long streches. He is so vital that many pundits belive Argentina lost the world cup because Pekerman took him out against germany.

Take your random American high school athlete (not soccer). What percentage of penalty kicks does he convert against the top goalkeepers?

See above. Arsenal, newcastle, Barca, the Milans etc. The teams you like (and hate) are interesting. I can see all (good, non-overrated, non-institional monopolies), but not Man U, especially since you hate Real.

That's a good question. On some forums, it might merit an entire thread. My intial answer is 40-50% (this is after instructing the guy to drive the ball hard on goal, Shearer style.) What do others say?

I'd say 20-30% Most of the time he'll hit it over or at the keeper.

Alobar,

Don't feel bad about not liking football. I'm sure you imagine everyone in Europe absolutely adores the game, but it's not really the case.

Couple questions

1. Why is Martin O'Neill so gifted ?
2. Will Aston Villa lose this season ?
3. If Jesus Christ came back to Earth and decided to play centre back, and he was able to use his 'powers'. Would he be half as good as Paul McGrath ?

Thats all for now

Will Will Hoskins sign a new contract with Rotherham United or will he bugger off to some Championship club in the January transfer window?

Will RUFC overcome starting the year on -10 and stay up?
