I voted Spain. Had a horrible world cup but still packed with quality.
Who do you think will win if you voted other Atari?

Portugal are average without him but he is good enough to win the tournament for Portugal single handed. International honours are the only thing that eludes him.
They've promised for a few years but Belgium could go very far in this tournament if Hazard, De Bruyne and Lukaku fancy it.
England will flatter to deceive as always, although probably make it out of the group. Then lose probably on penalties in the last 16 or quarters to an Italy or Germany.

Yep there was a time when the awful photos from 02 were the first thing you saw. In time they've dropped away and now you need to search for them.
That said I can see why you wouldn't want that photo as the first one people see. Not sure trying to get it taken down will work though.

Oasis perhaps, although they only split up about 6 years ago so whilst it would be big news not a shock reunion.

Again I disagree. There'll always be another lukaku but there will never be another ibra.
& with ibra you're guaranteed a return. lukaku on the other hand has only delivered in patches.
Show pony?! He's a champion, a winner & an elite profession who sets the tone- lukaku is none of those things.
Jose didn't fancy lukaku before.. he's won a scudetto with ibra & I think maybe ibra finished top scorer that year too?? I'm not a utd fan but even I'm excited by this. I wouldn't be excited by lukaku..
Don't get me wrong I'm looking forward to seeing him in the Prem, he's box office.
However if I was a Man utd fan I'd rather we looked elsewhere. At 35 how many seasons could he give you, all the while younger long term talent is overlooked because Zlatan has the no.9 shirt. Lukaku by contrast is 23, has his best years ahead of him and is proven in the Prem, averaging a goal every 2 games in generally ordinary West Brom and Everton teams.
For me Lukaku is a signing for long term success. Zlatan is a short term bums on seats signing.
Can't see Lukaku happening now Mourinho is there anyway as you said.
#456 Re: Guns N' Roses » Axl Rose joins AC/DC » 518 weeks ago
A double DVD might be an idea. One of Brians best show and one of Axls.
I'd like to see the Axl/DC thing wind down after the US shows anyway. Too much time was lost between 93-2015, it'd be a shame to lose more of it in the years to come on side projects and none GNR activities, however cool Axl in AC/DC is. Not to mention the long term wear on his voice.
Secondly Brian is rumoured to be on the mend. Personally I think Angus wanted to let him go but it's just my own opinion. However if Brian is fit to return then Axl can step aside as the conquering stand in. Probably with a lot more kudos among AC/DC fans and the rock community in general. It won't look as good if he replaces Brian full time and Brian's still claiming he's fit to continue. Then he becomes the guy that ousted Brian Johnson, not stood in for him.
With all that said I'm still seriously considering a last minute purchase of a ticket for manchester on Thursday

Good ep again, felt like another scene setter before a presumably big final 3 episodes.
Agree with BLS, 30 mins of the Hound looking thoughtful and cutting wood was a bit much, good to have him back though.
The Arya thing was a bit weird, last week it ended with her getting needle (am I right in thinking needle is Valyrian steel?) back and being on high alert. Then she seems without a care in the world this week and promptly get stabbed.
Curious to see what's going on with Marjery, obviously a plan at work but if she wants her grandmother out of the city it sounds like it'll be messy.
Looking forward to this Riverun seige. Come out of nowhere a bit but promises to be good. I've got a feeling it might be the end for Jaime.

If they're wanting to do stadiums in europe it's gonna have to wait until next year. Summer will be over by the time the AC/DC US dates are finished.
#459 Re: Guns N' Roses » Axl Rose joins AC/DC » 518 weeks ago
Voice is sounding much better which is good news. Someone mentioned he'd had a cold, I've not seen it anywhere else but a sore throat would explain the last couple of weeks.
#460 Re: The Garden » The Football Thread » 519 weeks ago
I'd be looking at bringing Lukaku in if I was Man Utd not Zlatan. Ibra is a 35 yr old show pony, talented no doubt but they'd probably get more goals and far more longevity from Lukaku.
