Good! He may not be the best coach around, but he's classy as hell.

He looks even classier when he's growing out his beard.

Funniest part is most normal/dedicated fans probably don't own a boat, much less want to pay the gas it takes compared to a car or public transport to get to the stadium.

Looks blandly beautiful, like Monaco.

Understand the bland point. The area that this stadium would be at is essentially very underdeveloped and the cruise port and import/export port is the only thing on that island.
 
Mario Gomez has torn the same ligament in his left knee. :/

Christ, Fiore can't catch a break. Between him and Pepito, their forward line has been in constant turmoil this season. Sucks because I would prefer to see them get third place over Napoli.

Saying that we disappointed neutrals and blaming our poor conversation rate rather then 346346340 injuries.

Yep, that's an whoscored article.

Andy Brassell is legit. :p

you can blame the injuries all you want, there's no excuse for collapsing (mentally) like this.

Gladbach, Hamburger, Hertha Berlin, Augsburg and Wolfsburg. They're all inferior to your B team.

Hell, forget BVB, at least you have an excuse. What about Leverkusen? And Schalke? This isn't about Bayern being too good anymore, it's about the rest of the league being utterly incompetent.
 
Ronaldo is chatting shit. How can he possibly pretend that every bad decision went in Barca's favour, when he himself scored a fucking goal because of a bad error?

If he was so desperate to win, he should have perhaps tried to have a positive influence in the match

You could have predicted Ronnie was gonna be shit after the first 8 minutes and he had an embarrassing flop. Then 5 minutes later he flops in the box again.

Not to mention they probably could have won or drawn if Benzema had netted one of those easy chances he had. Like the volleyed goal he scored was harder than the shit he missed.

I thought last night thw ref was spot on with most decisions except the Madrid penalty and that too was so close that I can understand how he got it wrong.

Aren't Dortmund actually doing better points wise this year than last year?

and they had their A team last season. I guess that's their league form.


Say what you want about Roma, but 64 (well 67) points would make them 1st or 2nd anywhere else.

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
Andre Marriner has been given a match to referee this weekend despite his blunder in sending off the wrong Arsenal player against Chelsea.

Marriner will take charge of Southampton v Newcastle on Saturday, a week after he sent off Kieran Gibbs instead of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain for a deliberate hand-ball in a case of mistaken identity.

lol

First he sent off Danny Rose for a perfect tackle v City, now he sends off the wrong player in another big game and is still allowed to take charge of a game this weekend.

Not hard to see why some officials are getting pompous.

It's damn hilarious. The worst decision of the game was the Madrid penalty, and they complain lol.

Think we all know how that game is going, Marriner or no Marriner.

Sure, the injuries aren't the reason why we lost certain games. But the injuries are the reason why some players are mentally and physically tired, the team not properly working, etc.

And we didn't really collapse or anything. Last season, we gave our best in the league but the squad was not good enough to compete both in the CL and with Bayern. This season, we've got more points than at this point last year and are still in the CL. That shows that our squad improved and makes you wonder what we could have achieved without all these injuries. The difference to Bayern certainly wouldn't be this big.
