that wd already make him second best England manager ever

This is a pretty swift fall from grace for Terry, no? Out of the CL final, out of the Euros, Andy Carroll making him look like a dick. A slightly slower decline might be better, maybe a bit of pathos, to let the media narrative catch up.

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:51 (twelve years ago) link

he just needs to be convicted of the race charge to polish off a memorable season

Djibril Citté (onimo), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:55 (twelve years ago) link

It's just about conceivable that he'll never play again. I'd like his career to decay a bit more visibly I think.

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:58 (twelve years ago) link

he'll deny it to the end

worse happens he gets two injury blighted seasons at the san siro on 7m a year

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:00 (twelve years ago) link

the whole laughing at the nasty man getting comeuppance routine, apart from its generic pusallinimity, is kinda hollow when he retires to a big house in surrey full of hedge fund brochures and gilded furniture and behaves abominably for the rest of his pampered life

terry is a retard

he probably looks like that when he runs out of jelly beans

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:39 (twelve years ago) link

the condition of a gilded age epl superstar is pretty much constant fulfillment blighted by occasionally disturbing interludes

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:41 (twelve years ago) link

I'll take what i can get. His failure to win the Champions League eats away at him i can assure you

Number None, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:42 (twelve years ago) link

so jermaine pennant gets a three year driving ban and has to trade in his 911 for a chauffeur driven maybach with a fridge full of krug so he doesn't have to spend a single moment of the offseason sober

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:43 (twelve years ago) link

oh man

caek, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:06 (twelve years ago) link

rio stays home, ebjt to ukr

yoel rak (toandos), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:10 (twelve years ago) link

unless they're both going to be left out of the squad. seems unlikely obv.

zverotic discourse (jim in glasgow), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:14 (twelve years ago) link

welp.

guardian says micah richards is out too? what's the logic behind putting phil 'not actually a right back' jones and glen 'glen johnson' johnson ahead of him?

Merdeyeux, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:15 (twelve years ago) link

wait what is there a squad?

i'd assume, tbph, that k walker is ahead of either johnson or richards, and prolly jones too at rb?

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:31 (twelve years ago) link

ah shit, walker injured

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:31 (twelve years ago) link

johnson for me, the best attacking fullback out of the lot of them

Chris, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:42 (twelve years ago) link

johnson has been the first-choice. don't see that changing.

zverotic discourse (jim in glasgow), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:43 (twelve years ago) link

well if Phil Jones is his only competition...

Number None, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:45 (twelve years ago) link

Harsh on Rio though

Number None, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:47 (twelve years ago) link

ferguson assured the public that rio wouldn't be fit enough

johnson ahead of richards sounds about right besides

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:50 (twelve years ago) link

but it's Jones ahead of Richards really

Number None, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:55 (twelve years ago) link

johnson ahead of richards sounds mental to me too, i suspect i rate richards higher than anyone else on the planet does and i've no idea why.

Merdeyeux, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:59 (twelve years ago) link

should just play Neville tbh

Number None, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:00 (twelve years ago) link

you liked the video of him and some other dude roasting someone in a mcdonalds toilet?

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:00 (twelve years ago) link

that is unfortunate

Number None, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:01 (twelve years ago) link

richards is the more complete player but he's not getting enough games at citeh- i'd rate him potentially better than any other young english talent tbh

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:01 (twelve years ago) link

oh it was a hotel toilet apparently, apologies micah

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:02 (twelve years ago) link

the ho did not tell the identity of the other dude

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:03 (twelve years ago) link

well u c i have good reasons for supporting micah.

Merdeyeux, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:04 (twelve years ago) link

idk, who cares which b+ player plays in which position, it's all about the race war from now on

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:05 (twelve years ago) link

it's part of the long-term plan to follow the dutch model

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:06 (twelve years ago) link

which other racists are there to pick besides terry?

Merdeyeux, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:06 (twelve years ago) link

are we going to speculate?

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:08 (twelve years ago) link

sure, it'd be fun if j** h*** sued ilx.

Merdeyeux, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:12 (twelve years ago) link

I'm sure Pearce has many lively discussions about race with his 8NP activist brother.

Djibril Citté (onimo), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 07:58 (twelve years ago) link

Goalkeepers Hart, Green, Ruddy

Defenders Baines, Cahill, Cole, Johnson, Lescott, Terry, Jones

Midfielders Barry, Downing, Gerrard, Lampard, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Parker, Walcott, Young, Milner

Strikers Carroll, Defoe, Rooney, Welbeck

r|t|c, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:20 (twelve years ago) link

when you see it written down like that...

Number None, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:22 (twelve years ago) link

Standby: Butland, Jagielka, Henderson, Johnson, Sturridge

so, who's Butland?

Merdeyeux, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:22 (twelve years ago) link

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Butland

r|t|c, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:25 (twelve years ago) link

weak at cb, rb, cm, rm, lm, and upfront

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:26 (twelve years ago) link

Is that Adam Johnson on stand by?

pandemic, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:27 (twelve years ago) link

Or Andy Johnson!! lol

pandemic, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:28 (twelve years ago) link

That midfield! Jeezus.

pandemic, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:28 (twelve years ago) link

lennon doesn't make the standbys, lol

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:30 (twelve years ago) link

I mean an entire midfield with at best 2 players who've had decent half seasons (Parker and Barry) And Barry is still forlornly chasing Ozil in my mind.

pandemic, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 12:31 (twelve years ago) link

On the other hand Roy's done a good job of dampening down expectation there. Getting out of the group would be a Mourinho level of achievement.
