Charlie Nicholas Premier League 08/09 Picks

[The_Adder]

Charlies PL Pics!!

 

My word, if your bored and need a good laugh then read that!!

 

Who'll win the title? Arsenal, espesh with Xabi Alonso in midfield!

 

Best Buy? Andy johnson OR Xabi Alonso for Arsenal!

 

Barking Buy? Our very own Robbie Keane!

 

Also has Robin van Persie down for the Golden Boot as a side note.

 

 

Nice one Charlie, you've brightened up my afternoon sunshine

[Bailo]

I do think that Robbie Keane's price was extremely high. He's a very good signing but £20m+ was a hell of a lot. He's a good player and Torres needs a partner but I'm not convinced that Rafa Benitez is, by nature, a man who likes to play 4-4-2. So I'm not surprised he went there but I do think the value of transfer was a bit obscene.

 

That actually makes no sense whatsoever.

[Chili Palmer]

That actually makes no sense whatsoever.

 

 

are you surprised?

[Gerry]

Strangest part as far as I'm concerned:

 

Golden boot

 

I don't think there'll be a new guy to blow us away so it'll be one of the usual suspects: Torres, Defoe, Santa Cruz

 

Defoe? Defoe! Since when has Defoe ever got close to being the top goalscorer in the league?

[bazz]

but I'm not convinced that Rafa Benitez is, by nature, a man who likes to play 4-4-2. So I'm not surprised he went there

[MFletcher]

And he gets paid for his analysis.

 

Some of that is worded so badly that I'm genuinely struggling to work out what he's trying to say.

[CarraLegend]

For anyone who's new on here we used to have a thread listing his drivel, the thread got quite big as you can imagine. It's actually scarey how someone can earn money (And im assuing very good money) for being so incredibly thick, I have never come across anyone as clueless as him, apart from Rashid and Kaizer.

He's clearly a bit thick but at least he's not biased towards the a***

[Swipe]

He thinks Arsenal will win league and Chelsea will come 4th??

 

And he's never lauded Xabi that much during his time here.

 

The man's a clown.

[Spiblish]

Mersons is just as funny - talking about us not winning at Portsmouth because of rotation and not sure Torres will finish top scorer cos he won't play enough

 

They really are good aren't they!!!!

it's a shame he stopped doing those weekly predictions for SKY they were hilarious

 

 

especially when he'd go on the SKY panel on the Saturday arvo and total contradict himself

[stressederic]

The man's a f***ing moron.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

a Charlie thread...

 

he really is a bell

We should get a petition.

Oh he went there

'clicks fingers in a ghetto style'

[CarraLegend]

Those were the days! Some of the stuff in them were absolutely comical, I remember one article where he absolutely ripped us apart, Benitez lacks tactical nous, it to scared to play 4 4 2, bla bla bla, then spent ages praising Man Utd then

 

Charlies prediction Man Utd 0 Liverpool 1

 

Errrr you've just spent paragraph after paragraph ripping us and our manager apart!

[Gunga Din]

i think its only a matter oftime beforeThommo belts either Merson or Nicholas

[Cobs]

a trip down memory lane.........

[CarraLegend]

That genuinely wouldn't surprise me, some of the stuff them two say is f***ing pathetic and they both seem to love trying to wind him up. Watching Thommo beat both of them into a coma live on tv would be beautiful.

[CarraLegend]

a trip down memory lane.........

 

Haha 8 pages, think i'll have a look through that one later. Nice one Cobs.

[Billy Dane]

Now that would make the sky subscription worthwhile.

[psl]

Le Tissier too, he gave Thommo a lot of s*** last year.

 

I'm sure I remember Nicholas saying a couple of years back that Alonso wasn't good enough to be in a title winning side.

[stressederic]

Considering his desperation for Arsenal to sign Xabi, I particularly like this little snippet from that archive thread:

 

He said last week that Alonso wasn't good enough for us if we wanted to overhaul Chelsea.

[Sion]

I remember somebody creating a league where the results he tipped us for where added instead of actual results.

think we ended up finishing somewhere near the bottom.
