I think it's 2pm, I shall be watching it in Salford Quays after watching Man U demoralise poor Jags this sunday.
dozes off like a budgie under a tea towel.
I know Arsenal quite well and never feel like this.
You get this weird optimism from office football types.
However my suspicion is that in general and not specific to this potential duel on sunday, you don't actually know who Diego Costa is?
go smooth all the way round? ( d'ya shave yer ares'ole too I mean to say).
He’s a lad who is Brazilian at one point, indeed lining out for the Selecao under Scolari. Then decides he is Spanish and becomes one of them, taking his place in the hugely unsuccessful campaign this summer in Brazil.
A horrible ******* to be blunt, a ‘beast’ as is the current term but a damned effective footballer. Oh yes.
tbh I barely know who our players are these days. The chances of me knowing other people's are extremely slim. I couldn't pick this Costa fella out of a line-up. This, I feel, is as it should be.
I may turn my back on Catholicism.
We're going to get some ironic glasses fitted this weekend
These things are surely the antithesis of the sw persona? There was a time he'd have been straight down the throat of someone using the word 'Selecao' calling them all manner of ****er.
I preferred that sw. :-(
It's 99% post-modern irony, or at least it is for those in the know

We all grew up on romantic stories of the Brazil 1970 team, the most iconic football strip ever, that picture of Pele and Moore never mind the talents of Gerson, Clodoaldo and their more household renowned colleagues.
Selecao was an everyday term.
True hispterism is knowledge of the absolutely c**ting obscure, or to me more precise not just the knowledge but the attempt to pass it off as 'normal'.
