Well we are actually kind of keeping them under pressure so I don't see how it's going to be a thrashing.

I don't see many positives so far...I can see it finishing maybe 3-1 or 4-0 there's more goals in this.

Is it pink? :rofl:

It'd suit Drogba's personality if it where :p

Does it have 'One Minute From Rome' written on the front of it?

:laugh:

nah it says

"Shattered Liverfool's hopes of the CL two years in a row"

I got a sneak preview of Liverpool's new kit for 2010. Apparently their new slogan is "Win trophies don't buy them". And hell at least we have done something your group of sissies, bottlers, and complainers will never do... Actually lift the trophy

Say What? I'm beginning to dislike you more everyday, and to think Martyn was the only one full of him self here :). Don't worry Martyn I still like you :p.

P.S- Buying players is not only limited to futbol, welcome to 2009.

Yeah, I noticed that myself, you're actually pretty full of yourself as well aren't you! If you don't like getting it, don't dish it out pal.

And yeah, buying players isn't limited to football (I am english, not spanish btw), but the difference is that unlike Chelsea, Man U, Liverpool, and Arsenal, Chelsea brought their success they didn't earn it. Until Abramovic they where a nothing club with little more than top 5 potential, and useless in Europe. They get handed an unlimited warchest and suddenly it all changes. Like it or lump it pal, the fact is that Chelsea are a nothing club with no history who spent their way to winning trophies. Just take a look at the situation yourself, and honestly think to yourself where they would have been without red rom's millions.

In fact I remember a situation where I was watching an old game on the Liverpool channel, when a Chelsea fan asked me why they didn't have a channel... I just laughed out loud at them and said "why the hell would a club that have no history have a channel"... They didn't even have a response, they just looked at me blankly then walked off... Kinda said it all really.

I think you'll find Chelsea do have a TV channel, little research does wonders (Y)

As for the Liverpool game, it was gifted to them, first goal involved no defense and a combination of a poor ref and stupidity gave them the 2nd.

They didn't at the time that my anecdote happened. Really though whether they have one or not, they have done nothing to deserve it. Watching re-runs of the last 4 seasons must get boring after a while :laugh:

Damn... There goes our hopes for a 3rd place finish.

Me and my friend were agruing; How money do you get for coming 3rd and 4th?

Not sure on the figures but I think its around ?500k - ?1m difference between 3rd / 4th, however, 4th place may recoup some of that via TV for the CL play off game they have to play.

    • This new cabinet design lets you run AMD, Intel, and Nvidia PCs inside one case

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      This new cabinet design lets you run AMD, Intel, and Nvidia PCs inside one case by Sayan Sen At Computex 2026 earlier this month, AMD announced a couple of new X3D processors for both sockets AM4 and AM5 as it confirmed the support extension of the latter till 2029. And although Intel didn't unveil any new desktop chips, the company's Core Ultra 200S Plus series is relatively new too. Let's say though that you want the best of both worlds simultaneously, and instead of running two different systems, you can have both running together side-by-side, or rather on top of one another. That's exactly what Thermaltake's CAPO X dual system is made for doing. While it's not exactly mandatory to run AMD with Intel, or vice versa, you get the idea. As you can see in the render above, it is essentially like a double-decker PC case that is capable of holding two microATX (mATX) motherboards. Even running just one discrete graphics card in a PC can get toasty, so you may be wondering how well the cooling is designed on the CAPO X, Thermaltake has confirmed, as is evident from the marketing promo image above, that the case supports up to two 360 mm AIO liquid coolers. 420mm is not supported. In total there is room for 13 120mm case fans. In terms of I/O (input/output) options for the two systems, there are naturally two places for those ports, one at the top and one at the very bottom of the chassis in the front panel. In terms of use cases, there are many possibilities. Thermaltake itself, for example, highlights how one system can be your main PC while the other could be the AI agent PC. Another example given is how it can be used to stream and game simultaneously with dedicated systems instead of hogging one with the entire load. Nothing regarding pricing or availability was said.

      There might be some passive design improvements (cooling, etc), but I doubt they'd change the core performance spec of the hardware mid-generation when they've already got a new console in development.
    • State of Decay 3 is out in 2027, reveals Plague Nests with new co-op gameplay trailer

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      State of Decay 3 is out in 2027, reveals Plague Nests with new co-op gameplay trailer by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe A few months ago, Undead Labs broke its silence about the third entry in the State of Decay series since its announcement in 2020. Today, the studio had a brand-new trailer to reveal at the Xbox Games Showcase, finally giving players a look at the Unreal Engine 5-powered title. A broad 2027 release window is now attached to State of Decay 3 too. The studio confirmed that every scene seen in the gameplay trailer (except for the studio logo) released today is from the game with no cinematic footage. "The quality bar of the moment-to-moment experience is higher than anything we’ve achieved in Undead Labs’ history," says the studio. "State of Decay 3 is being built in Unreal Engine 5, and we’re creating better quality versions of what makes our game the survival sandbox it is, and the combat experience is really, really important to us, and I think you can see it coming through in this trailer." One new aspect of this upcoming entry is the Plague Nests. These are supposed to be dynamic, dungeon‑like enemy hubs with varied “personas” that change tactics each time one appears on a map. These areas will have the best loot in the game for players brave enough to tackle them. The combat system is being overhauled too, letting players do quick and power attacks depending on the situation. This isn't just on the player's side though, as zombies themselves now have multiple new types of behaviors depending on how fresh or decayed they are. "All of these play very differently, especially as you start getting outnumbered or when you’re making noise and running around and trying to save your rear end or the rear end of your friend next to you," adds the developer. Of course, settlement building and community management are massive parts of this third entry too. These are being further expanded with the cooperative focus, giving players much more freedom for playing together than in State of Decay 2. Players will even be able to split up and build settlements in different areas of the same map with different goals. Undead Labs confirmed that playtests are already ongoing for the title, and interested players can sign up to participate by heading over here once more slots open up ahead of the full release. State of Decay 3 is coming out on PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Game Pass sometime in 2027.
