Squaring Off: Fletcher v Distin

Ooh, we love a bit of extra testosterone on the pitch in the form of manly posturing. 

That said, we missed the Community Shield action this weekend (won by Manchester United over Portsmouth on penalties, 3-1), so for all we know, they could be arguing about lip gloss.

    A better pic would have been Tevez grabbing what's-his-face-whose-name-I-can't-spell by the throat. That was awesome. Not that I condone that sort of behaviour (cough).

    Heres the conversation: “No, MY shoes are more expensive.” “No way, man. My shoes are custom.” “And mine have golden inlays. My idol is David Beckham. God, that is one hot stud.” “Seriously man? I’m more of a Fernando Torres fan.” “Whatevs, man. Beckham is so much better!” “No, Torres is!” *Push, shove, push, shove, fight…*

    Tevez is a bloody savage! Should have been a red card but we all know what refs are like!

    You missed nothing, Kickette. Absolute snooze-fest of a match. That was probably the highlight right there.

  10. Have to agree that Tevez (aka man of the match) was fully warranted in choking out the yappy defender – that guy not only grabbed his leg in the box, but held on for dear life because he knew Tev was gonna rip it in. Sucks for Portsmouth when their second-to-last line of defense, man-to-man, is a dirty ankle-biter. don’t f*ck with Carlitos! PS: Fletcher’s a pansy but the kid’s got heart.

    I love me some male posturing :) Ugly, hot whoever! As long as testosterone is involved I'm game!

  12. MrsXabiAlonso says:

    There's a whole lotta ugly going on in that picture. Not what you need on a monday.

  13. TammyV says:

    Umm… The kid grabbed his leg because Tevez full/solidly stepped on his arm while he was on the ground. No way Tevez gets that call when he the fault and card should ahve already been handed to to him. Then he should have gotten the straight red for the throat grab… NEVER ok

  14. Johnna says:

    Or a better picture would have been person with unspellable name grabbing Tevez's leg with both hands in the penalty box and then it not being called a penalty. I mean, I know Tevez is 100% better than you are, sweetheart, but there's no need to hang onto his leg to keep him from pwning your arse. He deserved a hand around the throat for that crap. Play some defense, quit holding onto a player's leg like you are a 4 year old. That said…. Hi Giggsy in the middle!

  15. The Fourth Official says:

    You go, Johnna.

    Hehehe. Giggsy is thinking, "Isn’t it Gary’s job to break up fights today? I’m pretty sure I saw *his* name at the top of the team sheet."

    Ugly? Darren might not be sparring Brad Pitt for hot man of the year but Distin is lovely.

    I kept thinking that Fletch was Phil Nevile and it confused me greatly.. I thought it was 2001 all over again. And YEa I agreee with Red, he would get his ass kicked by Distin

  20. Boston Red says:

    Fletch is a beanpole. Distin would kill him! I like a feisty Fletchinho though. Keeps him relevant.
