That is a good signing and probably a good move for Griezzman at this time!

 

[Gareth Bale]

He must be gutted he won't get to play with Danny Rose or Ben Davies.

He wouldn't have been able to handle competing with Chadli anyway.

Fuck Balo
And Zlatan
And Barton
And Benoit Assou Ekotto.

Football characters.

Ugh.

I'm glad Atletico seems to manage some good signings this season. Both Griezmann and Mandzukic are reasonable moves.

I miss Bla. Nobody posts about Bayern anymore.

Lewandowski is going to be so good for us. I have great hope to the CL again. Depends on Pep's shenanigans.

And Rode might just be a great signing after all. He brings pace to our midfield. Actual running, not just passing. I like it.

Hojberg continues to develop nicely.

This is true

How long is he banned anyway?

I think we have a great squad, but I'm a bit sceptical still if Pep will vary his tactics and be flexible enough for the really good competition.

Gaf never fails to astound me. Guy in OT doesn't know what a teenager is. Didn't know that 19 was still a teenager and that teens start at 13.

I mean..

wut

Just seen that, lol.

:/

 

[Yurt]

I guess we'll know about Vidal tonight after the meeting.

The fact that there's a meeting says it all 😂 he's gone.

Need to get Yurt's gf to drag her nails down his back and screech TAAAANNCCCREEEEDIIIIII at the crucial moment

Can you imagine 😢 my penis would turn inside out (

 

[Mac_Lane]

You pay 50 for Luiz, and people start thinking you are dumbasses.

It's how it goes.

Yep, I still can't wrap my mind around this. It's known that Thiago Silva lobbied a lot for Luiz's transfer, but spending that much on a defender was certainly a dumb move.

 

[PrematureQuiche]

Now come home pls.

That's a really good move for both him and Atlético.

On hold to my local gp surgery, dance music with "Please wait yoru call is important to us" every 5 seconds.

No matter how many times this machine says im important to them, something in their voice makes me think otherwise.

 

[Nicktendo86]

Multiple papers this morning reporting the Vidal rumour but all seems to be coming from 'reports in Italy, can't help but shake the feeling of bullshit/contract negotiations.

 

[Gambit]

I think we have a great squad, but I'm a bit sceptical still if Pep will vary his tactics and be flexible enough for the really good competition.

Sometimes I think Pep is too flexible for his own good and tries to many new things at once. Atm he seems set on a back three for example. But we will see. I share your scepticism. But the players themselves make me hopeful. Ribery seems to be good again and play well with Lewandowski. Now add Müller, Robben, Götze, Thiago...

No idea how long or why he is even banned.

I probably should've used a different term than flexible. Pep tries a lot, the formation is very fluent, with players changing positions or even the team changing formation (during match), I'm just worried that while all that might be a great idea in theory, it could be too much in practice. The focus still seems to lie on ball possession and slowly putting pressure on the opponent (similar to tiki taka), but I fear that alone is too predictable (i.e. not flexible enough). Then again, now is the best time to experiment, so I don't really mind for now.

As for Bla, I'm guessing the last picture did him in. Given that I complained about it (though only in the thread) I feel a bit responsible for that.

I fully agree with your longer explanation. Wish he would also embrace sitting deep and playing counters from time to time. Simply to mix things up a little bit. Or long passes to Lewandowski (from Neuer, lol). Just generally more diverse elements than purely possession.

Never saw Bla's picture. But that might have been the reason, judging by some other picture's of his.

Good for Atletico. Now come and give the people what they want and rescue Torres!

That's what people said about psn and look at that now. Cost money and is shit.

We signed Mikael Antonsson for 2 years, fairly happy about that, even if he doesn't have the same quality as when he left us. This however seems to mean that Mellberg is on his way out, the club is saying they are in "positive dialogue" with him about moving him on.

 

[Clegg]

We'll arrange a lovely wreath.

 

[Broder Salsa]

"new".

Fifa 15 out in 2 months lol

I'm pretty sure that label means a new game in his library...

 

[Clegg]

JJ has outdone himself. Has a new blog on how Fergie will rue the day he froze out Bebe.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Huh, Carrick at 33 is currently the oldest player in our squad. Feels odd but quite nice too.

 

[Scum]

Naughton to Swansea? YES!

Gaf never fails to astound me. Guy in OT doesn't know what a teenager is. Didn't know that 19 was still a teenager and that teens start at 13.

Lovren is a sexy man. We're turning this squad around and taking the train to handsometown.

Quite a coup of Koeman to sign Ozil.

We'll win the handsome war as soon as Reece James and Andreas Pereira make the step up to the first team.

If only Carrick could get the 12/13 form back
