  1. I don't know who this man is but such an unlucky comment at the end haha.
  2. It is kinda sad for me, I haven't born in the UK and never been a "born there and will die there" fan for an England team but a huge fan of EPL football since 92's where Turkish televisions started to show some EPL games each week. As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, it was our reason for to meet with some of my friends every weekend and mid-week schedules. In regards to managerial roles in EPL, Fergie and Wenger were the last representatives of successful and long-time managers in EPL. To be honest, I have never liked his tactics and always thought he was lucky enough to have players like Henry and Trezeguet and many more since his Monaco days but still he was there somehow and loved how Arsenal trusted him for many years even when he was struggling. Loyalism is a huge part of my life so that's the reason behind him why I value him this much. I don't think we'll be able to see such loyal servants for any EPL club anymore. It is the end of an era in a way.
  3. Good thing that he is not working for a British company, any performance reviews would drive him crazy. Actually, if I were Moshiri (one side) or a proper Everton fan (another side) who was born that way and will die that way, I would be pleased with this survey. No matter it's trying to get feedback about Sam or Mou or Pep. My club placing importance on my opinions so it would only make me happy. At the end of the day, I am the one who pays for the ticket, merchandise etc... So fuck off Sam, if you can't handle a performance review, go back to your parent's house. Of course, he knows what will come as a result, so that's why he is tense.
  4. Not following him up after his injury and right after Mou, he couldn't find proper chances but is Luke Shaw trash now? Couldn't he be useful? He wasn't a bad left-back during LVG era in United. He is still young and worth a look as Mou not playing him he can be captured for less than his normal price tag.
  5. Whenever he speaks and comments on players, how happy he is with the score after a draw or win with a boring football it makes me think that how Everton did even climb to this position with this mentality. It's a miracle. It is a prophet-like miracle, he may declare his prophecy soon... This ignorance, this hollow ego... It is unbelievable. Regarding Rooney, I don't think he can handle MC position anymore or maybe he can but depends on the opposition match-up from game-to-game but he may still be useful as an AMC or by coming up from the bench. Looks like, he only wants to play as a central midfielder, neither ok with coming up from the bench or playing in another position.
  6. Nothing more to lose as knowing Sam will settle with a draw and consider it as a big success, it is worth trying some different things; Pickford Coleman - Jags - Funes Mori - Baines Davies - Rooney - Klaassen Walcott Tosun Vlasic
  7. If that's the thing you get from it I don't see any reason to discuss more with you on this subject in a rational way and your parlance on your last post is quite arrogant. Pity, I was thinking like we were going to discuss matters like grown-ups for a second. Oh and, I see your hidden "Your country got its money to keep them away from us so shut the fuck up" message and just smiling at it, very basic, a very low point. Our current government is not representing my view as they are at 180 degrees opposite side of my world-view. Trump is not representing the views of all Americans, same applies May, Merkel, Macron etc... I would welcome refugees for a period of time and also would not make them a part of a trade deal at all. They are human, not a trade asset. Such a shame for my country but that's exactly what our current government did on the other hand, but at least they have never hidden their intentions. They were always looking something to turn into gold, eventually, their bottom has been human beings...Regarding refugee problem of mine, we can discuss why I am bothered by this refugee crisis when yours hosts 3+ million refugees like us. You are not at that level, you are not in the same situation but you may soon because that government still waiting for the last part of the payment, otherwise they will open our EU borders for them. Oh, of course, then you will pay Greece to keep them away from you. If you think you can keep someone or something you don't like away from you by paying for it, how much money your country will ask Assad to pay to stay away from Syria? I think, and regardless what I think it is obvious, England is more civilized and modern country than my country, especially nowadays. It is a greater country than my country in many ways but it does not make you better than me. Don't mix things and keep your self-righteousness away from me. It is not a holiday, we are not a hotel owner and your sense of humour on this matter is a joke itself. I am deeply sorry for you. P.S. It is not "you're", it is "your".
  8. No worries Mark, UN is there, taking care of it. When there is no valuable resource UN is the democracy bringer. Partying all night, getting paid 5 times more compared to their salaries at HQ. Never leaving the compound where they even have "Carrefour" but in the annual meetings, summits, with fancy dresses, they present us how much money allocated to help suffering people.
  9. Somebody remind him, there are 3 types of points in football. 0 for defeat, 1 for a draw, 3 for a win. In this scale, the big point is 3 and rest is lower than that.
  10. Cenk. 2 balls cleared from the line, 2 great long balls to Walcott and 1 wasted assist as Coleman's shot hit the bar. Can't judge him with his attacking today as he couldn't get feed again but made an impact somehow. Pickford is the second.
  11. A f... deserved goal for Swansea... It was too obvious that it was just a matter of time and finally... Nice reading the game Sam.
  12. Pity even when Everton on counter-attack Swansea players are running faster than Everton midfield...
  13. Can't argue mate. I don't know him as much as you may and Wikipedia is still censored in Turkey ha! (The irony here... ) For me, it doesn't change the fact that it might be staged unless it is proven by an independent organisation. No matter what, Assad should leave and Syrian people sent back to their country. After that, they can decide for themselves, not any other foreign country.
  14. I am not sure if it is correct or not but I kinda remember an interview during this summer with Conte where he says "I wouldn't imagine this tempo keeps you busy all the time and I think I am tired after last year's success." and it caused speculations on him. It is obvious that Chelsea is not passionate like they were last year but it is always tough to play against the teams in the relegation spot. They have nothing to lose. I am always scared for those sides...
  15. Unless he substitutes Gana or Morgan with Beningme again, we may see Vlasic for Bloasie today in the second half.
  16. Well, it is another point of view and I respect that but only one point you have mentioned i can contravene in your last post; "so give him some of his own medicine." It is not the medicine for Assad as "smart bombs" are not smart enough to be aimed at Assad himself or intentionally not being aimed at him. Coalition targets places, not Assad. Since the day coalition decided to move into Syria to save it Assad's regime and end ISIS threat, Assad is still alive or not captured somehow. Coalition never tried to bomb where he is located but bombed the other targets. ISIS is not power as they were but still exist, actually, while coalition started bombing Damascus yesterday, they have used it as a chance and attacked Damascus from the south of the city. As a conclusion of my way of thinking, when I want to see the picture of what came out of this Syria crisis so far, I only see; - Assad is still alive and there. - ISIS is weak but still there. - Syria is not more democratic but the country is a whole mess. - Innocent civilians died, many fled and unable to live in their "home" country and also became a burden on the "host" countries. - Bombings happened in Europe, in Turkey as a reaction. Way more innocent civilians died and they were even not related to Syrian subject, they were innocent European people far away from Syria.
  17. Mate, I did not tell anything like that. You are making it up or just simply distracting... I am not even a Muslim and couldn't care less what Turkey's stance on that or Turkey's stance for any other Muslim country. But I will give you this, we are hosting millions of more refugees than you have ever had in your country. Blaming The UK for that? Nope, I don't like to see that in my country either... I am just trying to say, it is the 21st century and there should be other ways than bombing the whole ground to take down one dictator. Russia is guilty as well. I am not trying to justify their stance there. This benefit-oriented dogfight between big countries in a totally irrelevant piece of land to their countries is ruining the whole country and its citizens. You live in more civilized countries (arguably including mine) like UK, USA, France, Germany... Those people were already suffering under a reign of a dictator and those people who did not flee and still have to live around there thinking like "oh, then this is how you bringing peace, democracy somewhere" This is not a good example to shape up their minds, more dangerously on kids over there seeing this as well. When they grow up, they are becoming other radical Islamist terrorists. What goes around, comes around. If this is the way of the civilized people, you cannot question the existence of ISIS, Al-Qaeda. You are giving something to one crazy caveman to brainwash ignorant people and they are forming these kinds of terrorist groups. It is also sad to see UN's existence in this kind of conflicts is worthless. People bring rumours to UNSC, "Assad used chemical weapons", "Saddam has chemical weapons" etc... UNSC tries to get a consensual validation. Either USA or Russia rejects, their votes are against all and boom, no consensus... It is really cringe-worthy that grown-up men who are the presidents of the strongest countries of the modern world can't get any results out of diplomacy, instead invades a poor little country for just to take down a simple dictator prick... Is Iraq more democratic country than it was before? What about Libya? Afghanistan? They don't have a dictator anymore as well as a piece of land they used to call "home". If you really think that coalition of the USA, UK and France cannot get down Assad with a simple diplomacy, cannot deal with Russia's protection (The UK is famous for its expertise on diplomacy, right?) than I have no other argument. Many countries think that Trump is a clown, even the leaders of civilized countries, but no one trying to invade the USA. I am not a Russia supporter or a portrait of an Islamist Erdogan supporter Turkish citizen which you can see nowadays. I've been in those places, have seen the people suffering from my own eyes and sharing what I see and what I think. What do I think about Russia? They invaded Ukraine, crushed the lands I lived for 2 years (Luhansk and Donetsk region), killed the people I know and my friends who were the part of my life once. There is not and won't be a day that I will support anything about Russia and its politics... PS: Each Tomahawk fired to Damascus yesterday costs 1 million and 590 thousand dollars. Each anti-missile fired by Russian and Syrian air defence system yesterday to destroy a Tomahawk in the sky costs 240 million dollars in total. (According to Syrian sources they have fired 71 anti-missile) You can calculate what should have been done with that much money for the suffered people of a country after bringing down a dictator. Islamic Army, opposite group that coalition supports in Syria against Assad has released a publication this morning; "This attack yesterday has destroyed every shred of evidence of the chemical attack of Assad on Syrian people in Duma. This is just tragicomic..." SNC, another opposition group which has been supported by coalition again Assad declared; "We don't think Assad will try to use any chemical weapons anymore but barrel bombs and cluster bombs will be dropped again by him. Basically, this attack only tells him 'Ok, as long as you don't use the chemical weapons, do whatever you want..' This is a shame for humanity."
  18. well, Russia and Iran did not react which is a good thing at least. if you wanna see the sparks of a brand new world war, you are looking into the right place. sign yourself up as a volunteer and go to Syria, you'll have the joy of your life there. you look like really enjoying it. I would agree to this if the bombs were being dropped on Assad himself. But they didn't bomb Assad, specific places in Damascus where also innocent people lives. Oh, this was for "bringing peace for innocent people of Syria", right. I forgot... There is an unproven rumour as well. I don't care if Heather Nauert says "We have enough proof", it is unproven, not investigated by an unbiased organisation . You have had enough proof before invading Iraq, we've seen what happened after... This is not a game or a freak show (well, thanks to trump it is now), while you drink your ale with your kids and watching the game of your fav. EPL team, people suffering there badly. Believe me, I know, I have been there. I have also been in the east of Turkey many times, been in Greece while people floating on the water between Greece and Turkey, been in Iraq. I've seen people who were running away from Saddam, people who were supporting Saddam, both were suffering equally. Same applies to Syria. There is always one winner and it is not the war that you win... Well, at least it is showing me which kind of people support this fanatically, Trump supporters in the US, Erdogan supporters were quite happy yesterday, you should have seen... No idea about the UK yet, but at least I know the profile in the US and Turkey.
  19. Not saying what Mr Ford says is the truth itself as indicated in the video's headline but as a former ambassador to Syria, it is worth to pay attention to what he says. I assume he has some reliable sources than any of us or some journalists and also underlining some important "possible" facts as long as Gary Robertson allow him while he is not trying to interrupt.
  20. Nah, I don't think so. Maybe just Besiktas fans who still show respect to him but he lost a lot of respect for the last 2 years and in opposition to Cenk, Oguzhan is not really respected by the rival teams. It won't be like Cenk's transfer I'm pretty sure. In short, safe transfer to not be raided by Turkish fans
