11/12 Premier League thread

awful performance.

too much british mediocrity is the problem.

Downing, Adam and Carroll were a massive waste of money. Downing contributes fuck all. has he even assisted a goal this season? Adam is as slow as a wet weak. always getting caught in possession. not good enough. Carroll is just complete and utter rubbish.

i see nothing in Henderson. Shelvey looks a better prospect than him.

Downing has gone back to his England form where he's too scared to do anything. Paul Merson as idiotic as he can be did say if he is worth all that money why isn't he a regular in the England squad when they have no left footed players?

Not a fan of Adam or Henderson I said that before Liverpool signed them. I've never seen Henderson do anything in a game. Adam can be good but he's selfish, he thinks he's some sort of amazing playmaker when he isn't. He failed in Scotland.

Carroll doesn't suit liverpools tactics but he is still unproven. Kuyt has been shit.

I think Bellamy should start as many games as possible. Maxi also.

Onto Manchester united. I love phil jones. I hope he's not out for long, that guy can play anywhere. Future captain. Ashley young has gone shit again, nani is the best winger in the premiership, our midfield is still average. We will finish 2nd.
 
i dont know why we went for Henderson. James McCarthy was the best midfielder on show last night. great energy about him. He is the player we should have went for in summer and would have cost less.

also, Shelvey looks a better prospect to me than Henderson does atm.

McCarthy will be a Man Utd player next season imo

Uruguay captain Diego Lugano went even further in calling it a "grave error", and accusing Evra of breaking football's unwritten code of what happens on the pitch, stays on the pitch.
Thank goodness its an unwritten rule which makes it irrelevant. Such arguments can not, and should not count when talking about racism.

"In Uruguay we use terms that can be misinterpreted and all of us who know Luis know that he wouldn't have made the comment as a defamatory remark,"
In so many words ->I didn't call him n!!!!!, I called him nigga.
 
is it racist to use the word Negro or Negrito?

Suarez used to word Negrito. if you read that article, the author explains how its often used to greet someone of colour in south america

perhaps its wrong to say it anyway though.

From what I'm told and read from South Americans. It is far from a racist word. Parents even call their own kids "Negrito" if he's only slightly darker. It's a nickname that even friends give to each other. It's just someone that is darker overall (even if he is only tanned).

Yeah. Thiago uses it on twitter. There is a cultural issue, it isn't a word that is used here in a positive way and unfortunately for Suarez he didn't know this.

Do we know what context it was used in? If he said "you fucking negrito" is that acceptable?
