Delph is better than Wilshere

I thought this was the unpopular football opinions thread, not the wrong football opinions thread.

Delph isn't good enough for the England team.

 

[Skinner]

Welbeck is a player that you can build your whole side around, and be successful

De Gea is the best goalkeeper we've seen in the PL

Glenn Murray > Shearer

 

[Murphy]

These threads aren't getting tiresome.

 

[Stevencc]

The grass on all football pitches is actually blue, the green we see is a reflection from a gigantic green planet so far away that we have not discovered it yet.

 

[Jarv]

Sterling is Massively overrated

 

[Whitechapel]

Sterling is Massively overrated

This is 'UNpopular' football opinions.

 

[johnnytodd]

All football fans entering their teams stadium must live within 10 miles of the ground.

 

[merseyboyred]

Sterling is massively underrated.

 

[Stevencc]

Sterling is massively underrated.

He's currently rated at £49m and £200k...

 

[HarvSFC]

Bit more of a prediction than an opinion, but Lovren will improve massively for Liverpool this season. Although he couldn't get much worse.

 

[DontBringBertie]

Paul Scholes has been ridiculously overrated and overbummed ever since he retired.

 

[Mustard]

Sterling is rated distinctly average.

 

[HertsWolf]

Matches at Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge will get an extra 5 minutes playing time if the scores are level or the home team is behind.

 

[HertsWolf]

To improve export sales, the BBC is going to devote less time to the Football League, non-league, swimming, cycling, non F1 motorsports, rugby, athletics, sailing, gymnastics, judo to devote more time for ageing pundits to analyse five Premier League clubs and mock QPR.

 

[JimJams]

Footballs should be cubes.

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

Knowing Man U's final squad for their tour of the US is vital information and the thread on the matter was very much needed.

 

[HertsWolf]

The FA have agreed to American TV network demands.

• Goals will be twice as big and corners counted as goals
• Goalkeepers are not allowed to use their hands and outfield players can use their hands.
• The game will be divided into twelfths, with ten minutes of play followed by fifteen minutes of cheerleading and KissCams and shit.
• If the ball goes out for a throw, there will be a five-minute timeout for strategy discussions, and 'throws' will now be kicked.
• Each team may have up to 16 substitutes and subs can return to play.
• No games will end in a draw. Tie breaker will be the cheerleaders performance scores.
• The yards advanced by each team will be measured and added to the points for the league table.
• Teams to be franchises, movable at six weeks notice.
• Matches to be played at 7pm Eastern time.

The whole 'football league fan with a chip on his shoulder ' act is dull as fuck

 

[Pagnell]

Schweinsteiger won't be as impressive for United as a lot of people seem to expect.

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Premier League fans are plastic.

 

[mistermagic]

We said unpopular Joe.

 

[NiallQuinnDiscoPants]

Sepp Blatter is a god

 

[merseyboyred]

He's currently rated at £49m and £200k...

Valued, not rated.

It's probably because their clubs are the most susceptible to bandwagon jumpers as soon as they're in the playoffs or get promoted.

 

[Christian Slater]

Schweinsteiger won't be as impressive for United as a lot of people seem to expect.

Let's be honest, that opinion is the common truth in Merseyside. I somehow doubt the disrespectful comments from Carragher and Phil Thompson would exist had Bastian signed for Liverpool, probably hour long monologues claiming he's Liverpool's Karl Marx.

 

[NiallQuinnDiscoPants]

People scoffing at City buying Raheem Stirling for £49 million as an investment in youth and 5-10 years of service (hopefully), when their team spent £31 million on a teenage left back last season and said exactly the same thing

Indeed. How else could I hold such an opinion, despite not reading or hearing either Carragher or Thompson make the comments you're referring to.

How very predictable.

As predictable as a Liverpool fan writing off Sweinsteiger the moment he signed for United?

I agree with this (mainly). Some fans in the lower leagues see supporting a crap team as a badge of honour and have a holier than though attitude.

On the other hand, some PL supporter's knowledge and understanding of the lower leagues could be improved.

All in all, football fans are a load of knob jockeys.
