We are talking about a man who spent a decade as best mates with John Terry.
Lampard Out Against Toronto
- Thread starter AndreT_NY
- Start date
We've unwittingly wound up with a Kreiselganger. He has become a caricature of himself.
We can now claim the first fully documented case of an MLS player or manager pulling an AJ Burnett.
I think Scumbag Johnny is just misunderstood.
This is exactly what we need Frank will play his first game against Orlando then get hurt in the all star game he worked so hard to be apart of... It's Greek a tragedy unfolding before us
They already have the EPL fans with Gerrard, really surprised they didn't go Pirlo over Lampard to grab some Italian fans.
A sane person would have assumed this discussion would have been had before the signing ever even took place.
Just a BTW we have this carpet like thing we play 15% of our games on. Will that be a problem? Or should we knock a million off your salary for anticipated absenteeism from the job?
They're playing Tottenham - the game will be better watched in England with Lampard and Gerrard playing.
It's not a good reason, but it's a reason.
lol what?
of course bring in lampard after possibly playing just few days earlier. And yet i see no giovinco i thought he would be a lock. i assume he will still come out when full squad list comes up, guess he got not so many fans to vote him in?
Pirlo ain't got time for that bullshit. I'm against our DPs playing in that stupid game anyway. For the life of me, I can't understand why any of our fans would vote to put our 7 million guys in a meaningless game where they could injure themselves. We also have the oldest DPs in the league so it's an even bigger risk. Then again we have the smoke bombs issues.
Maybe that was the term that held up the Prilo signing. His last condition was to make sure he had a contractual agreement not to play in the stupid all-star game.
That's true - it's not uncommon though in the US to say that I'm a big college football fan. That's thrown around similarly.
But I agree that it'd be like saying that folks from all over the south will tune in to a celebrity softball game just because former Kentucky quarterback Jared Lorenzen is playing. That'd make no sense to a Florida Gator fan.
I was an EPL fan for a number of years before I sort of accidentally became a Man City fan. I was just happy to have high-level soccer on my TV and would watch any match that was on. Nowadays I'm an NYCFC fan first, then a Man City fan after that. But I'll still watch any EPL match that happens to be on. Usually rooting for the little guys like Burnley, say, if I have no particular stake in a game.
Can't quite explain why I now want a Dave Fishwick minivan though. Probably unrelated.

Yep you support the team your dad gives you not the league or anyone player .
An example raheem sterling was an arrogant little shit an hour ago when he played for the dippers, now city fans are wearing his shirt thinking he's better than Pele.
Just how it works over here
Probably not from you, and that's fine. But it may make a Tottenham supporter slightly more likely than the average friendly to tune in.

In all honesty we get so much football now its overkill,its nice when its closed season and we can have a break .I doubt many UK spurs fans will bother to watch a meaningless friendly if its on at stupid o clock.
Not about us Americans. It's about the folks in England, Spain, Brazil, Asia and Africa who want to say Stevie G, Lampard, Villa or Kaka play.
OK,
OK, got it. Makes sense.
