Weird feelings of football

France haven't changed their kit design since 2002.
United always play terrible football in white.
Bobby Charlton's wife has been to more United games than he has.
 
Yes. He also turned 30 in about 2005, and remained 30 until he left in 2011.
I have similar feelings about Ruud Van Nistelrooy: he arrived at 28 years of age and left at 28 years of age.
 
Did Liverpool win the league last night? I was watching them celebrate and I was wondering if i missed something
 
Watford and Norwich are actually the same club that has tricked the EPL every season to get the PL Money. They get promoted/relegated depending on the other team so that no one finds out.
 
Harry Kane isn't particularly fast, strong, good in the air, skillful, or positionally sound, and yet he's one of the Premier League's top strikers. He's good at scoring goals. I don't know how he is, he just is. He's like a bumblebee, they're not supposed to be able to fly, yet there they are.
 
Teams like Watford and Palace and Sunderland can knock the ball around and look like decent teams when playing against us but the next week against other top teams they look like 11 of George Weah's cousin
 
Nigeria and Cameroon will always be the best African national teams, no matter what.

Danny Welbeck is still 23 years old and will always be.

Mata is explosive but keeps it slow so he can be calm.

Wenger has lost his interest in football since Henry left. He works because he has nothing else to do.

Denmark and Norway will never produce quality talented youth again.
 
Pretty stock issue weird feeling: Teddy Sheringham never converted a penalty.
 
Andrei Arshavin neither existed before the 2008 Euros nor after the 2012 Euros.
 
Every #6 with a good range of passing - your Carricks and Pirlos and the like - have all been compared to a Quarterback by a commentator at some point.


No quarterback has ever been compared to a #6.
 
Every recent addition to the Premier League has a shit haircut, a shit beard or shit tattoos.
 
Seen this online but is kind of suitable for this thread..

It has become part of fashion culture for young girls in the UK to wear Basketball Shirts with famous players on the back

But you would never see a young american girl wearing a Stoke Jersey with Walters on the back of it.
 
Harry Kane isn't particularly fast, strong, good in the air, skillful, or positionally sound, and yet he's one of the Premier League's top strikers. He's good at scoring goals. I don't know how he is, he just is. He's like a bumblebee, they're not supposed to be able to fly, yet there they are.

He's the reverse Miroslav Klose. Will score all the goals in the world for Spurs but will never be very good for England.
 
RVP was the last striker to score a header from a corner when he scored one to complete his hattrick against Southampton.

If a player scores an own goal, they always make amends by scoring a goal for their team as well.

No striker has ever not scored on his debut.
 
Rory Delap still starts every week for Stoke, and the rest of the league still hasn't worked out how to deal with his long throws.
 
Hardly ANY corners are actually any good at all anymore. They either don't even beat the first man or just fizzle into utter nothingness (sometimes they even somehow make it back to their own goalkeeper)
 
Andy Carroll has never lost an aerial battle.. (which is probably true)
 
Perfectly struck shots almost never result in a goal. The commentators will then say something like "he's hit it too well".

This. Its very hard to say what Harry Kane's greatest attributes are.

He's a bit like Thomas Muller in that sense.
 
Michail Antonio is West Ham's only outfield player.
