EPIC BIG SAM
EPIC AS HECK
sick and tired of hearing about vardy
>>63757381
Big Sam confirmed for hating the North East.
are sunderland using the same formation that got raped by everton?
>>63757450
yep
he is literally and unironically killing sunderland, just as he tried to kill newcastle 8 years ago
>>63757398
Liverpool will pay out the ass for him and he will sink back into mediocrity and obscurity. See Keane, Robbie, Lambert, Ryan, Hampton, South, Carrol, Andy for further reference.

as a Liverpool manager who has gone onto bigger and better clubs once said, "It's a fact."
>Blunderland: Pantilimon, Jones, Kaboul, O'Shea, Coates, van Aanholt, Cattermole, Larsson, M'Vila, Defoe, Fletcher.
>Subs: Johnson, Lens, Graham, Toivonen, Yedlin, Mannone, Watmore.
Sunderland has the most depressing squad I've ever seen.
Gonna sit this one out so it should be a cracker
>>63757549
Yeah but it look at the positive, it's less depressing than 2016-17 Sunderland.
>>63757549
Pantilimon is good usually (gash this year), M'Vila is legit, Cattermole great on his day and Defoe is a goalscorer.
The rest can fuck off. Watmore and Johnson maybe stay.
>>63757575
None but Pantillimon will stay when they're relegated

No talk of other games? OK then
Predictions? I reckon 3-0 Palace.
>>63757776
No way, it will be some nasty 1-0 or 0-0 game.
wait just a minute, is that the Johann Cabaye?
>>63757776
6-2

I have 3-0 palace

I mean mnf reviewing weekend results.
American watching soccer for the first time here, is Crystal Palace a good team to follow?
I'm a Colts fan in American football, I don't know if they have a good Premier League equivalent
>>63757818
Watch & see what you think
pardew is such a scummy manager, its actually embarrassing
using shitty cheap tactics because you have no faith in your own or your teams ability to actually play football
>>63757818
They have cheerleaders, goal music, confetti, plastic flags and fly a bald eagle around the stadium at home games.
You'd fit right in.

Watch Sunderland m8. You'll be able to follow them in the Championship next season.
Sam looks dejected already
>sam pretty much saying he's playing 802
"we'll have to defend first and hope we get something out of our front 2"
lel
>>63757842
5-3-2 like vs Everton, PvA and Jones at wingback, Kaboul, O'Shea, Coates at CB.
I got the feeling Blunderland won't lose this game.
I smell a 2-2 or 3-3.
>>63757818
They're okay, they're a bit cringey and have gimmicks out the arse but the fans make decent noise as their stadium is small which means only real fans get in with season tickets or membership, general sale rarely happens for CP.
>>63757818
>Watching for the first time
>Palace v Sunderland
I await the "American here, this is what wrong with soccer..." thread
>>63757818
It's tricky to find an EPL equivalent when talking about two different sports, it doesn't always make sense.
Crystal Palace is not one of the better teams, but they play well at home and love to play the role of spoiler, especially against Liverpool.

Though to be fair I decided my NFL team would be Baltimore Ravens and I watched it for the first time last night. It was a complete clusterfuck, I've no idea if that's how NFL normally is though.
>>63757939
Clearly not as the other time we put 5 at the back we conceded 6.
Seeing waterfalls, lava fields, geysers, volcanoes and going on a glacier hike. Supposed to be watching the northern lights but it's overcast for the rest of the week.

Genuine quote from Bog Sim:
>"With John O'Shea at left back we will hopefully nullify Palace's strength on the wing."
>>63757985
If it wasn't for Vardy's party nobody would have given a single shit about Newcastle Leicester. Anything with Villa and Mememouth is guaranteed misery.
>>63757985
Sky have to spread the games between the teams.
Picking this one means theres going to be some other good fixture live next month or whenever. It's a balancing act.

Because cunts like CP wear red and blue, why is that even allowed?

At least Fletcher and Defoe link up decently on occasion. They're still not good but they're at least pretending to be a team.
Palace are a legit top 6 threat
This is going to be the GOAT season

The trouble is you have to pay double to convince people going to Sunderland is worthwhile.
We do seem to exclusively sign past it players from bigger clubs and utterly shit foreigners though.

Is that true? Do they have relegation clauses or did they forget like Newcastle?
>>63758156
I actually really liked Coates and wasn't happy we sold him to you, but it seems like that ACL injury killed him off
Someone needs to tell Sunderland that long balls only work when there's a player to pick them up
how was MNF lads?
>>63758167
Yes, it's usually pretty accurate at predicting league position too:

Billy Jones seems to play fucking attacking midfield for us, it's mental. He's not that bad a player but that's one of the main problems with our full backs, they seem unable to stay back and actually defend.

QPR vs Reading back in 2012 (I think) was worse.
How can you possibly have two teams in the one of the best leagues in the world possibly be this fucking horrible, I've seen more interesting mls games, fucking tragic.
Van Arnholt is fucking shit, he's been in great positions a few times today and fucked it up completely every time
Palace with their Sunday League tactics of rolling the ball down the line into a deadend. Either you lose the ball or go backwards. So pointless
And with that, Pantilimon has proven he has better feet than Larsson.
