United did lose to a Chinese pub team the other week. This wasn't that bad. Only 4 (Walker, Lennon, Ade and Vertonghen) would be in our ideal starting 11, less if we sign a striker/dependent on how Chadli fits in.
Shit the Chinese grammer police :ade: . I just googled Chinese characters. Pedant.
It gets slightly better
Another worry for Spurs was the forced substitution of Jan Vertonghen, who left the field holding his knee and was sent for a scan.
"It seems like he twisted his ankle, it could be sprained ankle ligaments," said Villas-Boas. "Hopefully there is not too much damage as he has a good range of movement still, but it is swollen a bit. We hope it is nothing very serious, the MRI scan is positive and he'll be back for the start of the season."

looks like, in absence of a striker, AVB is going for a player/manger role!!sky said:"However, Villas-Boas has said there is still a chance that Villas-Boas could be involved in the final match of the Asia Trophy against South China on Saturday."
Wasnt able to watch, but it sounds like the infamous beefcake had a pretty good game considering he was mentioned 2-3 times in the match report.
Can someone sum it all up for me succinctly please.
Someone who knows what they are talking about.....

You made a thread asking where Audere has gone to which resulted in the revelation that people from here had set up a separate forum. Then several people acted like internet cunts for an inordinate amount of time.
Oh sorry. wrong thread.
We lost 3-1 to sunderland in the pissing rain. #Spursy

Dembs was high so he didn't play, Hudd was a mess (#lardcake)Can someone sum it all up for me succinctly please.
Hmmm. Kaboul looks like some manner of ethnic Lex Luthor.Dembs was high so he didn't play, Hudd was a mess (#lardcake)
Chad is handsome, Vert picked up an injury, Friedel & Walker were outstanding, Ade looked interested
