It was around 7m I believe, and I think Shelvey will go on loan to Blackpool.
Nice. Not bad.

It's less about the drama now and more about match performances and results. Because of United's record, they are the team to conquer before you earn the title. Beating United has become more of an importance to Arsenal fans as the years have gone by without success. The dodgy results and penalties at OT are still not forgotten. I maintain till this day Rooney dived for the 2004 penalty and also this one:



That to me is dive. I challenge anyone to argue otherwise
Awful challenge. Almunia deserved the penalty.

Our new stadium. The seats are close to the pitch. English stadiums-inspired.

Such an awesome stadium and I love that dressing room. Anyone got a pic of the Barca one for comparison seeing as it was brought up?

Almost every Arsenal fan I know says they hate United more than any other team.

Very different on this side of things, but meh. The rivalry was purely on the pitch and for 6/7 years. Those matches were awesome though.
I think every top team's fans hate United more than any other team. Whether the logic is sound or not, it seems everyone has a reason to hate the Mancs.

Personally I'd rather have United representing the PL on an international stage than Chelsea, City or Arsenal because they have a storied history and typically a British core to their team, not just deep pockets. Also, because watching Utd get mauled by Barça is like watching the bad guy get killed at the end of a movie. :)

Yup so will United. Sole reason I'm not attending Barca vs. Chivas in Miami, nobody real good is gonna be playing for the price they are asking for. However if it was Barca vs. AC Milan like originally billed in Miami, I woulda been there in a heart beat no matter what. Kevin Prince bless me.

I would say it was more like watching a rapist and a mass murderer fighting each other at the end of a movie. Sadly one of them had to win.

Wow, those dressing rooms are impressive. Liverpool still has wooden benches and that's pretty much it.

The Juve one is just too nice for me. Too nice for a dressing room for sure.

Barca look like they've kitted theirs out with IKEA furniture.

I think AC Milan have racing car style seats for the players in theirs.

How it should be, remind the players that club has been around longer than the players and always will be. It's why I'm in favour of redeveloping Anfield over a new stadium, I don't like ditching things that have served the club so well over the years. I really do hope we can find some way to extend it without disrupting too many people.
 
Just been watching Copa America. Alot of those players look very very tired. Could be a bit of a hangover when they get back to their clubs.

Messi looked pissed off for pretty much the whole match.

Valencia picked up some kind of injury to the ankle he broke last season aswell. Hope he comes back fit and well.

I would wanna stay at Anfield too if I was a Liverpool fan, but surely, to really get the commercial and gate money needed to compete with some of the other top clubs, a new stadium is required? Realistically, not much can be done with Anfield, which is sad. At least not at a reasonable cost.

So glad Chicha doesn't have to play. Hope valencia doesn't be out for the start of the season, but at least we'll get to see young play for a while.
Messi wasn't interested and seemed pissed. the argentina team is pretty bad. LOL at when they decided to play GAGO ahead of pastore :(
impressed with guarin, think he plays for porto, not sure if hes the same guy but was probably the best player.

That Juve dressing room is boss. City are going to have to show them up. Can't go letting another team have a cooler dressing room. Almost as bad as another team having a better website!

It took you too long to get to the punchline, so the effect was lost and by the end of it I was groaning in pre-emptive bemusement.

I give you 2 troll points out of 10.

Anyway, this:

I forgot just how much I dislike Barcelona sometimes. And I aint even an Arsenal fan. So arrogant.

"Daniel Alves, was less cryptic when interviewed by the local radio station, RAC1. "I am convinced Cesc will join us. Arsenal are tourist class. Barcelona are in business class and any player would want to join us.""

""I would say that 90% of the players in the world who are really worth signing are already at the club," said the Barçca sporting director, Andoni Zubizarreta."

Nah its bullshit. Arsenal went toe to toe with them and could well have knocked them out without a dodgy refereeing decision. 90% of the worlds best players are at Barcelona? Come off it.

They could use some respect for the other great teams in the world.
