My Days! Townsend Is Really Terrible!

Incidentally, someone mentioned that you think Liverpool are on a par with Arsenal, are you discarding several years of finishing above them at this stage of the season?
----------------------------------------

"Someone" mentioned wrong. Second hand information is often distorted.

Not an entire season though is it, it's only half. Quite a rapid demise for someone who's ability outshone someone elses for several years to a point where you think anyone is deluded for suggesting otherwise. What do you think happened to Young?

We're capable of finishing 4th this season. We don't have enough for a title challenge and for sure, City, United and Chelsea will finish above us. We're about level with Liverpool and Spurs as it stands.

"Can't be bothered digging up the Callejon comment but it was a pretty forthright opinion when you were insisting Bale can't play for Real Madrid."

Do dig it up please.

"For starters, you had denigrated his era of playing and then suggested Ozil is better than any player Liverpool have had - including Dalglish himself."

Yes. And I maintain that stance. Hardly embarrassing as you put it.
You most probably never even watched Dalglish and co, and are just going on hype.

"And except you can show where I've said Liverpool are on par with Arsenal, quit repeating the false claim."

Ok.

"I think there's not much between the squads this season and Liverpool will believe they have what it takes to top Arsenal."

"You brainless mug. Saying someone is a technically better footballer doesn't mean the same as saying they're better. Hleb is technically better than many footballers I can think off but is an inferior player generally."

Oh dear. That wasn't what I was holding you to was it, you simpleton?

You said Townsend's naturally a better footballer than Walcott.
I was referring specifically to that. Nothing else. So the rest of your post is moot.

"I guess I just have a pretty strong aversion for deluded drivel irrespective of who I support. I guess I recognize that a team on an 8-year trophy drought who have recently seen top 4 as success can't have all these amazing players the more delusional fans would have you believe."

What? So you think the doing the opposite of that is fine?
Raining on Gooners parade and then singing the praises of opposition players?

Personally, I couldn't give a toss if you do that or not. It just makes for a sight seeing you act all self righteous and pristine.

He's an idiot for even thinking Young was ever better than Walcott really.
The guy's always been an average, below par player. Mancs are finally figuring it out now.

---------------------------------------

Ask Young. What do you think happened to Arshavin? What do you think was happening to Ramsey? What do you think happened to Vermaelen? What do you think suddenly happened to Ronaldinho? Or Kaka?

English may be my second language but I'm pretty sure "about level" and "on par" don't mean the same thing. 6 and a half-dozen are on par. 6 and 5.5 are about level. Keep up.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ronaldinho and Kaka were slated for their performances in 2006 and 2010 tournaments, you can see what happened to them after that. Arshavin on the other hand was lauded on the strength of a tournament performance in 2008 and had a stonking season that year.

Young has a woeful tournament, gets slated and you call everyone else deluded for thinking he's sheet, then 6 months later when he's still sheet, you wake up to the fact he's sheet after you've called everyone deluded for noticing it at the time.

Go figure

A clown that doesn't understand English. I thought you said you were English. So saying there's not much between the squads is akin to saying they're on par. Oh dear.

nothing to say to that last one.

I'm not actually English. It is amusing seeing this handicap hang at the end of every word I do post though.

What else does that mean? 'Not much between it?' Your other posts even says that.
Arsenal, Liverpool and Spurs are about level. Please get some sleep. It seems you're working that little brain of yours overtime.

Don Vito
I didn't think he was that dim. Honestly, I had him down as a little sharp.
Guess those impressions were way off the mark. What a fool.

There is nobody that would claim sensibly that "on par", "about level", and "not much different" are wildy different concepts. Unbelieveable pedantry designed to deflect from the point. What a miserable fail.

Still showing up yourself. I haven't said Townsend is a better footballer but he's a more naturally gifted footballer. A clear as day statement that I've clarified but you keep throwing around your pedantic drivel that has zero substance.

Wtf? When someone says 'he's a better footballer' they refer to him being more naturally gifted.
In fact, that's what I was laughing at and mocking you for.

You think Townsend has more natural talent. Think I got you the first time.

Man you've made a mess out of this whole thing.

No it doesn't. It means about level, in fact, the way you're presenting it, means that you could have implied Liverpool are slightly better.

Saying there's not much between 2 teams means they aren't far apart. It doesn't mean they are level. You're talking utter garbage. They are different concept whather you choose to qualify it with "wildly" or not. They simply don't mean the same thing. Engage that thing between your ears.

Fack me

sherriff is on par with a muppet, but about level with a tool

'Not much in between in it' is interchangeable with 'on par', 'not much to choose between them'.

Refrain from laughing at people's English when yours is so poor.

I guess I may as well copy and paste to get to 2 thickos at the same time.

Such a juvenile poster. He loves that word.

So you were naive as well as being thick. None of the drivel you've written here is unexpected. Utterly predictable as ever.

I use it on you a lot cos you're a juvenile idiot. Not hard to comprehend is it? EVERYONE knows you're a juvenile idiot.

Also like how the pedant mug above with his initial pedantic bs on my comments about young turned round to call me a pedant because I pointed out his flawed comprehension skills. Simply brilliant clowning.
