Didn't think you fried haggis, but I just learned about the "haggis supper". You people are mental.
YOU PEOPLE!?!?! :dembelewtf:
But in all seriousness, the shit that gets fried in this country is fucking mental. I've only ever had a deep fried mars bar out of curiousity. Not nearly as good as a deep fried Toffee Crisp. We also make haggis Pakora and invented the Chicken Tikka Masala. The story is some bloke wanted Chicken Tikka and Gravy so the restaurant just made something up on the fly, hence why no Tikka Masala is ever the same really. Its no wonder we die by the time we hit 35. Euan McGregor and Billy Connolly are the exceptions of course.
You have been at the angel dust
again haven't you !
Straight off of the top table :mong:
pizza coated in batter and deep fried?
Most shops also offer a half pizza and the option for it to not be battered. They will mock and ridicule you for ordering only half a pizza and no batter though.
Remember when you said Eriksen was 100% to leave in January?
Its done.
Monchi has left Sevilla. Heavily linked to Roma, but no deal yet..
Anyone who still thinks Zaha would not have been a good signing needs to eat the same humble pie Alan Shearer just ate.
A very good player and one much better than Lamela.

He's not better than Lamela.
He is not better than Lamela but he is a proper wide player unlike Lamela who is more a number 10 and his pace and power from wide areas would help us.
you're nuts if you really think that. He has some ability but I'm not sure he would improve us, he certainly is not as good as Lamela, that's nonsense.
I think Lamela looked more of an attacking threat in Serie A, and lost a bit of that when he developed his defensive side. Because of that, Zaha is perhaps better in some attacking areas, but I've seen nothing to suggest Zaha has anywhere near the ability of Lamela in:
- Defending
- Strength
- Resiliance
- Pressing
- Ball control
- Aggression
- Determination
etc.

Is Zaha better than Lamela? No. But they're completely different types of players anyway.
The best comparison with a player on our team is Sissoko. Is Zaha better than Sissoko? - Oh lordy yes.
Everything that Sissoko touched turned into shite today. I have no doubt that Zaha would have been a very handy outlet indeed if inserted into our squad, and he manages to impress in a team much much worse than ours. Whack him alongside Eriksen and Dele and we'd be laughing.
I feel kinda bad writing a player off, but honestly, the simple switch of Zaha for Sissoko would make us immediately better. Sissoko is really bad, isn't he?

We were supposedly in for him as well
