The SNH Football thread

the sold out stadium and their supporters

the way they deal with the economy and being a working club

and the way they play imo, like when they play real madrid two years in a row and it doesn't seem to phase them too much

stuff like that is pretty unique and then theres all the great players most of which come from a specific talent school and a different kind of trainer with a 'fun' attitude

but yeah ofcourse there's stories to be told from all clubs... i get why this one appeals to a lot of people

their supporters

edit, should say in Germany HSV is my team

[garethom]

yes but the prem isn't a 2 team league.

04/05 - Chelsea
05/06 - Chelsea
06/07 - Man Utd
07/08 - Man Utd
08/09 - Man Utd
09/10 - Chelsea
10/11 - Man Utd
11/12 - Man City
12/13 - Man Utd
13/14 - Man City
14/15 - Man City/Chelsea

Totally agree with you man. It's a 3 team league.

[ehbes]

There are more teams than that that, on paper, can win the league. Both Arensal and Liverpool spent a lot of time on top last year, where as in the BuLi, Bayern are the only team thats ever gonna win it this year and definitely next year

You honestly believe Arsenal, Liverpool, Spurs, etc. are gonna beat out Man Utd/City or Chelsea? Not gonna happen any time soon imo. Just as narrow as Germany tbh, and I'm not gonna cry about Dortmund going down, because if they're fucking bottom, they weren't gonna challenge Bayern anyway.

[ehbes]

Maybe not beat them out, but results like Spurs winning 5-1 at Chelsea are more common in the prem and make the league far mor interesting. I think when Wolfsburg beat bayern last week it was the first time they had lost in like 13 months.

[hubb]

tbf this bayern team is one of the best teams to ever play football

you're both right

[ehbes]

If they stick together a midfield of Can, Henderson, and Coutinho can challenge for, if not a win, a title in 2-3 years time

[hubb]

It's lovely that you would think so. A good fan etc

but m8 l l

[ehbes]

Can is a damn beast of a player and he's only 20. Hendo is a work horse who can control the midfield and coutinho is a damn magician who can put in a final ball with the best of the league, and hes 22. the sky's the limit imo.

[hubb]

I've always rated coutinho tbf, ever since I saw him as a 'kid' in inter and Can might evolve into a really good player, but it's always almost impossible to judge when huge physical players peak or if they can keep going in football, because the frame and general physicality isn't the areas where most of the tear happens. It's always the knees and ligaments... those damn ligaments lol and thats why someone like Essien didn't rule his entire career imo despite being built in th batcave or from like dark elf bits or whatever. It's often scrawney, sinewey little shits like (ironically) Christian Poulsen that kind of work in that role past 26 and >
Henderson is whatever and I think there's one of him in every prl team

Presuming that Man Utd, Man City or Chelsea don't just buy even better players in those 2-3 years too.

Henderson is whatever and I think there's one of him in every prl team

you shut your whore mouth!

[rockonin]

Cant wait to see Cuadrado play tomorrow! Looks class!

[ehbes]

fair play tbf, he is very much a Mourinho player, should fit that system well

[rockonin]

Just hope Willian is not left on the bench, he's one of my favorite players, he just needs to sort his finishing out.

[jaydot]

Why have they sold Schurlle? He was class

[ehbes]

Why have they sold Schurlle? He was class

He wasnt a mourinho type

As in?

[hubb]

Mourinho has to get to pass on a few players every season that actually did alright.. like a kid spitting out food

[hubb]

it must be derbie day or something today
