  1. Religion, what's the point?

    Given the "X" in Xian/Xianity symbolises the cross, which is a placeholder for the word "Christ", I would reckon the version without the 't' is and has always been conventional, as far as convention about unorthodox abbreviations go. I've never seen someone spell it Xtmas for instance.
  2. Is Chelsea's "good business"starting to payoff?

    Given that none of them play in the positions Luiz and Mata play in, I don't really know what your point is. Luiz and Mata were replaced in their team by Zouma and one of Hazard, Oscar or Willian, all of which are improvements.
  3. Manchester United refuse to launch female team

    Knowing Giggs, he'd sooner touch them than managing the job.
  4. Jones & Blind

    Having watched them against Barça, I'm not too worried. They marshalled Suárez well for the most part and both stepped forward with the ball well enough. For all of Smalling's merits in defence (which are way overblown in comparison to Jones) he's not as good on the ball, an attribute which...
  5. Manchester United vs Club America (Pre-season friendly)| No posting streams in thread or on profiles

    And yet he continues calling him Depay. What a wanker.
  6. Bastian Schweinsteiger | 2015/16 Performances

    Every single day I wake up with a smile on my face. Bastian Schweinsteiger is a United player. Writing that gave me goosebumps.
  7. Your Manchester United Formation

    This is way overblown. He's played Jones and Smalling in the league last season every time both have been available.
  8. Phil Jones | 2014/15 Performances

    Yes. Jones is statistically one of the best young centre backs in the world. Its rather sad that he's been reduced to a meme in these waters. Apart from the first Aguero goal at Old Trafford this season, I cannot remember him making a mistake that leads to a goal. The only complain I have...
  9. Phil Jones | 2014/15 Performances

    That was not the point of the post you quoted. They were disproving a facetious claim you made.
  10. De Gea Contract Situation

    What you're describing is an escort service. Law enforcement does not look too kindly at those. :lol:
  11. Sergio Ramos | Signs new 5 year contract

    Couple things. 1) Ramos is absolutely world class. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely hate his guts, what with the playacting, the indiscipline and the hounding of referees. If we get him, he will be an extremely controversial and polarising figure, with the spotlight constantly on him. Think...
  12. Favourite teams from each country

    England: United Spain: Valencia Germany: Anyone but Bayern Italy: Juventus (Del Piero, Nedved and Buffon), also have a soft spot for Roma (Totti) France: Monaco USA: Atlanta Silverbacks
  13. US Tour 2015

    It's a plain league this year, I think. That's fair enough. I remember that even for the WC, only the players knocked out in the group stages (Rooney, Shaw, Mata etc) came to the tour while guys like Januzaj and Van Persie didn't. Ah, there's enough European talent in the two teams to be a...
  14. Paulo Dybala

    He's Argentine. Also, Graziano Pellè.
