The Boss scares easily. He'll be back, and in greater numbers.
Went to watch a mate's match tonight and I was worried how many times I shouted "Attack the space!" from the side-line...
I saw an empty parking space at the store today. I attacked it.
Fabio just said it again. When asked what England need to improve on he says that when the team don't have the ball they do not "Attack The Space(TM)"
Put me down for an Attack the Space mug, plz.
Done. Just leave 20 fresh English pounds and your address in an unmarked brown paper envelope by the big tree to the left of the Bandstand on Clapham Common, and i'll sort it.
I'm in the process of making a mash up of Fabio's useage...Anyone got a clip of him saying it post match? (I've got pre-match, he sort of says it weird, like Battack de Spayce)..I'm not sure this one will get in the New Statesman, but we can hope to dream.
What in the name of Evra is this all about??
Attacking the space.
I think we covered that on page 1.

I've only got two rancid ten pound notes, and I won't be coming to the UK anytime soon (this side of Christmas)... but I'll see what I can do.
What does that mean though?
Are you just mocking something Boss said?
Oh I can't be arsed.
Boss wrote a big long piece about some players not utilising space properly. He went on to say that the best players attacked space which opened new avenues and vistas in not only their own, but also their teammates' and viewers' footballing experience.
It's essentially just running with the ball into an area where no one else is standing. That's it really.

Got to admire the Boss's dedication to footballing prose, mind.
You don't have to.
I guess you don't... if you've got an aversion against calling a spade a dig-o-matic 2000... but the rest of us like a bit of pomposity!
That said... the manipulator of space bit...
fecking hell.Well exactly. We're on page 13 and we still haven't quite worked that out. But it definitely involves running.

it means when you see some space you attack it. Attack the space is key to so many things we do, for example i was playing f1 2010 online last night with zarlack, there was some space between me and a red bull car. i attacked it an managed to overtake him. attack the space!
He's back.....
to attack the space??
From what I've heard, we're all attacking the wrong space. He's come back to show us which space is the correct space.
well where is he then?
In space
i cant believe someone creates a caf phenomenon and then fecks off while it grows massively, i want answers. show yourself you cnut or i will attack the space in front of your face
