of course it's fake, his source was that United wanker Sports_Witness. That Vidal wound still burns
besides, Adidas is bringing the stars back
At least we are performing better in CL than last season. I hope we get past Donezk, then Schalke, then Dortmund and Atletico Madrid in the final.

The stars were on the sleeve. An interesting take lol
Will laugh my ass off if that twat goes for anything over 15m.
They'll be on the badge, Shanks.
Me too. All shirt designs are too safe lately

Dante: "No-one thinks about whether it could break my career or the pressure it has put on me, I am very, very, very, very disappointed."
What a crybaby
It's understandable though. Boateng, Benatia, Badstuber and Martinez are all in front of him, so he either tries to compete with them or leaves to Inter.
Or Arsenal.
Imagine if Argentina had won the WC. People would still be celebrating here
I'm kind of glad they didn't, surely the looting would have been massive
He can join Podolski in one of the top 10 clubs in the world
I don't care anymore
I'm getting my body ready for the next era already. Wonder who will take over

Yurt angry again :lol
I still can't believe how Holland lost to them in the semis. Robben would have killed us.
kind of idiotic since he doesn't remember the final
RVP's goal return is really quite impressive, given his age and also the fact that all of United Gaf go on and on about how terrible his performances are.
I did wonder if it was pens that was driving up his tally, but it seems that yesterdays penalty was the only one he has taken this season.
His tally is still just about better than 1 in 2.5 games, which means it will be very tight for him to pass 15 with the remaining fixtures. It will be a good haul regardless, even if his performances haven't matched it.
Argentina was very well organized side, without being great offensive-wise (somehow), with Messi upfront. The way they bottled it in the final was Bayern-like

I'm still talking about the great WC win of 06.
I feel like I deserve a world cup winners medal.

Incredible so far. I think he has won the most tackles in Bundesliga and if he isn't injured he always plays together with Boateng and Alaba which is a magnificent backline. I think Benatia hasn't even lost a header to anyone so far. And he scored his first goal for Bayern after a corner... The only goal out of 150 corners
Edit: Robben scored another one after a corner against Schlacke last week. Still, we are pretty poor at setpieces.

Is he still out of contract this summer?
Kinda sad :/
You deserved the WC but it's still amazing that the first thing many remember about 2006 isn't italy winning but Zidane headbutting. Probably the most legendary moment in the last decade.

You wonna fight?
lol, first thing I remember about that is Grosso's penalty
Just shut up and invite me to Korea
the Germans need to talk a bit more about the WC actually :lol just to tease terrible nations like Argentina and England
Hey that's good then! Glad to see he's doing well, and away from Roma.

It's on Setanta as well so should be loads of streams
Prepare your anus for a 0-0, l1nett.
Which kit do you want to wear, Messi or Ronaldo?
Messi for the first half
Ronaldo for the second half
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I'm glad we bought him. Especially after Martinez injury and Dante failing to reach a professional level.
Benatia is good. but way overpriced
jts
...hate me...
Could be but, defenders with that class are pretty rare and normally don't leave their clubs. Thank Paris and City for those inflated prices by buying mediocre defenders for those prices :/
Yep. Hopefully he signs a new deal. City have been trying for ages but you never know -- worried Bony's return will mean he's back on the bench since we're playing with two strikers.

I think what I see with Herrera is he is always looking for the "give and go". He looks at making himself available as much as possible.

No, Just means that 150k a week will become the new 100K

apparently this was voted sports picture of the year.
Another award for Messi that Ronaldo will never get a chance to emulate.
That's too sad for me.
Please don't kill your kids, keep on sapportin Ciolsi.
That's UGLY. PLEASE NO. JESUS.
I have a bed again
Well.
Too bed.
It's a pun.
I'd say the price is right.
Stars please, yes do.
He's good, but I hate him.
Of course you do, that was LEGENDARY.
The whole world mocking us for calciopoli and yet we won so hard.
Against France nonetheless. Can you imagine being of footygaf in 2006, I'd be banned so hard.
Like you get to win it every year.
The first to get to Brasil wins Bla, let's go.

Nothing much to see really. The club announced last year that they expect revenue to fall about £30m this year due to no European football. This is in line with that. Just another reminder of how shit last season was.
Don't worry, we're spending big this summer.

Well, this was basically the point I was trying to make way back, that strikers of Van Persie's age drop off sharp and just aren't good enough to be starting for top clubs anymore. Now as mentioned RVP may well surpass the arbitrary boundary of 15 goals but I think the point still ended up being fairly valid.

On the subject of stuff I said in the past, I noted a fair few posts last night on the subject of Pelle's hefty drop off in form.
I can't say I'm much surprised.
That being said, one shouldn't be too quick to assume he was just a half season wonder either. People have difficulty judging randomness, assuming that someone with goals spread equally throughout the season is a random distribution whereas goals that come in tight bursts obviously has some external explanation. But of course, both are equally random. There is no reason to assume that Pelle won't suddenly go on another goalscoring burst to improve his record.
