I like you Manager but don't you dare talk about Maradona.
I don't think Aguero is going anywhere.
1. I don't think anyone can afford him really.
2. Why would City sell their new prized possession, they are building a team around him.
3. We don't have to sell to anyone.
4. He looks happy!

Not a great picture, but these are our 3 kits designs for next season. I can confirm that the home one looks terrible.
Looks about what you can expect from Under Armour.
Al Wasl is managed by Maradona right! He's going to be telling him "You need to move to Madrid, forget about what you've just managed with City".
Yup, done for.
No no no. Aguero is telling his father in law "look man get your ass over to the Villa job, come and visit your famaily on the weekend in Manchester."

rodvik, are you crazy!?
There is 0.00% chance of him going. He loves it here.
He can't go to Real, no way. And going to Barca would still be a dickish move against Atletico. And the only other team that can afford him is PSG, I guess.
It would be the most entertaining season in our history. I also think Maradona got a very unfair rap during his time managing Argentina. They were frightening until the Germany game.
Besides, our season tickets would rocket up
Brb. Fapping. Klopp to Villa!!! Yeesssssss!

He left Fulham like September of last year. lol He had had a good run at Fulham, but apparently he did not like going abroad. Síndrome del Jamaicón is what we call it over here.

Mancini targets the players he wants, Marwood (Footballing Administrator I think) does the negotiations.
Probably nothing in it though.
Voos has commented it... he's charging over 350 players, he said the meeting had nothing to do with RVP.

Not only are Arsenal and Tottenham rivaling on the pitch, but they're also rivaling in the shittiest kit competition.
Surely CNN has made some sort of mistake in this article..

I'm scared of Dzeko.
I have to admit you guys were amazing fans last year in Atlanta. We were hanging out with Mexican fans in the big parking lot having a blast. Drinking, dancing, just great and fun competition.

I don't think he got a bad rap. He had some good players, but had some wonky tactics. Plus, I don't like the way he insists on being center of attention. On the other hand, our ticket sales would skyrocket and it would be exciting and entertaining.
Yes, let's go talk to Klopp, he can bring Kagawa, Gotze, and a few others with him.

I can't wait for the outrage in two years when the cornetas and trompetas are at full blast.

Maradona is not even a real coach, the AFA gifted him the coach license because he's Maradona.
You clearly didn't watch the South American qualify matches for the WC...

I'd love to go watch the USMNT play in Mexico (or at the Rio Olympics) but everything I've ever read makes me nervous. Just a bit of hostility towards Americans down there.

Come the fuck on, they didn't beat anyone of relevance before that game. And yes, I include Mexico.
US/Mexico games bring out the worst of both bands to be fair.
I can't wait for all the Barra Bravas guys to scare the shit out of everyone else
I'm sure they will ban the majority of them from entering the match, but they can't ban everyone of them in middle of South America.
I'm hoping to make it and go to at least a WC2014 match.
if everything works as i planned i might gonna watch a mexican league game in puebla next year

Absolutely, and I want to avoid that just as you would I imagine. I didn't mean it in a disrespectful towards the country at all. I'd love to hang with MexicoFootyGAF!

I would make a Community thread but I fear it would only be comprised of like ten people.
I still think we should have a different thread for National Teams. Lots of "international football suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks" posts whenever those times come in here.
where are they playing now?

Some second division team I think? Their stadium and most of their properties got taken by the state government due to tax evasion concerns.

Good luck with that.
Being used to seeing fireworks at every away match : Meh. What they should do is give a few of them a license to actually fire off firework and shit at the stadiums, seems to have worked out well for the clubs that allowed it in Norway, of course it gets dangerous when some coked out guy, with tribal tattoos and a bald head stands there with a flare in his hand.

Nah man fireworks have got to go period, they discussed legalizing them in Germany for a short period of time but it's simply to dangerous. The authorities would never grant a permission to use them in the stands with a few thousand people around.

Community thread as in Mexican National Team thread? Or MexicoGAF thread?
Also, there is a Euro's thread, and I'm sure we could make an Olympics and World Cup Qualifying threads as well. And I agree that at that point we may as well just make an "International Football/Calcio/Soccer/etc. Thread |OT| of why are these games so boring?!"

They aren't used in the stands in Norway either. Of course there isn't enough space on every stadium to do that but on the majority there is more than enough to have it between the pitch and the stands, something the ultras seems generally willing to accept in exchange of half of them not being banned from coming to the stadiums. But well, good luck on getting rid of the firework and ultras.

I'll represent with you bro, love their stuff
lol, well true.
But I did watch the qualifiers. I have also watched them after Maradona. I think he looks better all the time no?
Anyways I want him mainly for the massive entertainment factor. That and he doesnt even know how to setup a team to defend so we would be absurdly attack minded.

I know you want it
That makes sense but i dont think that would be possible in most German stadiums as there's simply not enough room between the pitch and the stands. I know it will be hard / impossible to get rid of them but it's definitely what the DFL and the German police are currently trying to do. For example most recently the fans of Hansa Rostock were banned from attending a match vs St. Pauli (of course it went horribly wrong but a ban like that will most likely be the norm in the future).
