Not really.

Make bad expensive products that no one wants
??????
Loss.

Come now. It's not bad, it's a well made piece of hardware with some great exclusive games and more on the way. It's just had literally the worst branding and marketing of a console in recent memory.

All this talk of City doing the quad can mean only one thing...the treble. But seriously, these journos will have me rooting for Arsenal or Chelsea...

A well made piece of hardware? It features hardware from 2006-2007 tops with a gimmick controller.

Don't get me wrong, I love Nintendo and I own every console from the NES to the Wii, but I have never even thought about getting a Wii U. It's complete disaster and they need to abandon the product asap

Someone's jelly?

I saw it on Twitter and I just thought I'd ask someone who's been to the stadium, therefore have a better idea at prices than myself.

I also find it interesting considering the clubs motto.

I also find it worrying that City are trying to emulate the Barca model.

Better yet, formations of players nobody ever heard of probably!

They can't. (Some) Consumers have invested in the platform. The perception alone would be a disaster for them. Price cut or bundles - anything but directly abandoning the platform is what the doctor ordered. GameCube 2 is the hope....at the very most.

Fuck Coutz? You hate us brazilians don't you?!


I've heard of Candreva before but I don't know how good he is. I just hope someone is brought in soon, whoever that is.

Surprise us, Brentan.

Ever since Ronaldinho lobbed Seaman m8.

Honestly I think Coutinho needs a rest for a game or two. He's become increasingly frustrating.

Toure will play I think.

I wish flannigan was back :/

And Ming..am I the only one who thinks he looks a bit average?

I like that, but I'd have to swap Suarez and Studge. Or put Sterling on the right and make Studge an inside forward on the left. Not sure Studge has the defensive know-how to sufficiently cover either flank.

It would be a shame to move Suarez out of the position where he's so incredible though. My go

This is a general formation, rather than one for Villa. Coutinho doesn't really deserve to start with Sturridge back, unfortunately :(

Agger would have to sort out his concentration issues, and the theory of two left-footed, left-sided CBs being incompatible would be put to the test

Rosicky's nose is indeed broken I see. Not entirely shocking by any means but called that one. Looked rough.

Valencia wants Garay and Rodrigo.

aren't they nearly bankrupt? still better than going to Russia.
Think they are getting massive outside investment potentially. Forget what country the guy is from...Singapore or something maybe?

I hope that is not Steve De Ridder.

i love how only the first guy actually challenges Messi, the rest don't even dare to touch him. La Loliga.

True, Messi got a lot of speed and accleration there but seriously, those two CBs are just standing there without using their body. Anyway, as I said, I could score 55 goals a season in LaLiga too.

Yeah, I know. Cout wants a goal so bad. He needs to learn how to shoot first. He needs to concentrate more.

How good is Rodrigo? We were linked with him a couple days ago by O Jogo, though it may have been his agent trying to find other suitors besides Zenit.

He looked fiery in the clips I saw yesterday, always liked that in a striker.

That's why you're worse off than you were at this point last year (ranking/total points). Seems legit.

First of all, it's only 7 points.

Second, we lost our defensive centre duo who were pretty good together (Wuytens-vd Hoorn), and had a lot of injuries of starting players.

No clue what a ''best signings this year'' has to do with that.

Shane Long has signed for Hull.

They'll be lining up with Jelavic and Long as their strikers. Get both of them in form and you have a good partnership.

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
Barcelona have created a mausoleum where fans can pay to have their remains stored. Initially there will be a space for 500 urns at the cemetery of Les Corts but the plan is to incorporate this into a modernised Camp Nou or new stadium in the future which will have room for 30,000 urns.

He's not average. I think it's more the fact that he's far more exposed than any other top keeper. He's had a few costly mistakes recently, but i prefer him to Reina easily.

Really? Fair play to him. I always liked him he just never really got his shot for us.

Loved him for this though.

Yup, he was free ofcourse and has been one of the better strikers in the league up to now.
(8 league-goals, 2 cup-goals)

Became my favorite Utrecht player pretty fast, love his winner-mentality, the Dutch league lacks players with that.

Nice goal btw.

Here's some highlights from him at Utrecht : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCD76BbSe7c
