Or failing that, Home Alone XIV

Although with some you need to be accepted onto the main forum by nature of "likes" on the quality of your posting on a neophytes forum. Bloody hard to accede to the real deal according to a MU supporting colleague of mine. However the quality of the main forum isn't all that at all.

It's a total mess really, each faction and nation involved has it's own objective in view.None of them want the same end result. Doubt if anyone in the UK has reported that the EI now have an unexploded french 500 kg smart bomb to parade around.

Then again you have to consider the England U21 possibles who've graduated to the full national side at an early age such as Barkley,Shelvey,AOC and now Alli . If Barkley was still in the U21s would the now 21 yr old JWP still be there or captain.

So what's the current opinon on his progress then ? He was a stand in for Bertrand so obviously no real comparison can be made yet on their respective qualities.

If any of them apart from JWP ever got any PL game time we might be able to form an opinion. As they don't then you'd have to assume that Koeman sees no need or reason to use any of them and he must know better than any of us...right?

Trigger happy Turks...... Situation has gotten far too complicated...probably for the benefit of the ..."bad guys" whomsoever that may be.

Nasri is out for quite a while I think, has become a bit of a sick note.

Only if they float though..

At least they do not complicate the task. On another note each day brings new reports of the French aiding and abetting their assailants. Last week it was revealed that on the evening of the 13th the BRI had 3 out of 50 of their unit on duty and that the drama had to be tackled first by the BAC which is not equipped for such a mission, their principal task being more in the banditism line. Today it was revealed that one of the suicide bombers had his passport and identity papers confiscated for trying to go to Syria a while ago. He simply went and told his local commissariat that they'd been lost and obtained new ones just like that so off he went to Syria. It's all being revealed as a monster own goal really.

Who knows really, if there's any real likelyhood of him being sold he'll probably be useless to us from the moment he starts believing in it all. Like Victor last August IIRC.

Indeed, they also have a strange pattern of qualification rounds where AfCoN qualifiers and WC qualfiers alternate on occasions. Sadio went to thje AfCoN last winter and won't be going in January 2016.

To do what exactly? The UK has no colonies to protect, no vast stretches of territorial waters to patrol and there are no foreseeable naval combat zones. It will just lead to loads of idle matelots doing endless NATO and EUMAFOR drills. Look at our FREMM campaign, originally there were to be 19 I think,reduced to 8. We have put 5 afloat, sold 1 to the Maroccans, sold one of ours to the Egyptians although I doubt that they'll ever pay us anyway. The Aquitaine is not yet in full service even after ' years of "trials" and the other 2 are swanning about on promotional tours trying to get 3rd world nations to buy a couple. Every NATO drill is US led and they have tens of Arleigh Burkes to put to use every time. At this time there is no need for a great number of European combat vessels.

He is not wrong, it's all got horrendously over the top. Everything is a drama to be played out and capitalised upon if possible.

Player eligibility[edit] As required by the regulations, teams must be exclusively composed of national team players playing in their country's own domestic league.[2] As I said, a minor tournament for teams comprised of only national championship based players. The next ACoN is in Gabon in 2017

Doesn't sound at all right, they had one last year, 2017 should be the next one in err Gabon, this must be some other tournament because they are in WC qualifiers just now. NB The Rwanda tourny is just for African based players, sort of consolation competiton I suppose.

Is there an ACoN this year ? Not as far as I know anyway. 2017 should be the next one.

MLG reduced to "guest" status, hadn't noticed that. Business must be slow in the pedantry sector just now.

Why so exactly, the lad is a nippy forward (apparently). Now it would seem to me that Liverpool destroyed them with exactly that, well 3 of them in harness anyway. So we throw Juanmi, Mané and Tadic at them after all what else have we got. NB I've not bothered with that thread, didn't see any point in it.

There are many things about the whole affair that seem to raise a question or two; Like why the BRI and the RAID needed to fire over 5000 bullets against 2 terrorists and a woman who happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time armed with a couple of grenades and a 9mm handgun. Whatever happened to the assault weapon(s) that they insist was fired at them? Did someone escape from St Denis and take the assault rifle with them or did it not exist in the first place? It's a bad affair but I don't know that the French are being entirely honest about it...not at all.

I'd play Juanmi in attack, sort of player who'd trouble Citeh's back 2

Well the popular press and no doubt skysports seem to be trying to presuade everyone that it's a likely possibility. I expect Alps has been reading the football gossip columns, same as everyone else. The difference is in how you interpret the contents.

If it happens we'll get some serious swans, I'm sure we can find a suitable replacement if, and herein lies the rub, we pay enough to obtain someone of a similar standard and not go scraping around dutch bargain basements.

Perhaps, then again you have to ask yourself what exactly you'd need 13 Global Combat ships to do . There are no naval combats at all at the moment, there are surveillance missions, training exercises but apart from escorting the odd stray Russian destroyer off of the coast of Scotland there's not much on just now. 8 is probably enough, especially when you consider the advanced intelligence level needed amongst the reduced complements.

But players of real quality do not faff about in unders sides when they're 18-21 years old, they're up there in the first team group playing week in week out. Whether that's anything to do with our current manager or our past manager who knows. The only thing that you can really say is that these lads,once thought promising, are not breaking into the first team as well as their counterparts from other sides. A run out for 10 minutes in the C1C against some minnows or other doesn't really count in the greater order of things, you only have to look at fan reaction when we lose against a lower division side to know that. In the end we'll end up writing off most of these starlets and they'll wend their merry ways to Yeovil,Swindon and beyond.
