Neymar won't be another Robinho, no way.

 

[gurasa]

I miss Wilshire.

 

[Yurt]

It's ironic, but now they are going to improve. :/

I wouldn't worry about that It was never the coach, it's the players.

 

[Salvadora]

I miss Wilshire.

I don't like how they keep showing him in the crowd.

 

[The Super Bob]

Be the hero we need.

What's your dissertation on?

The weapon focus effect, primarily concerning the roles novelty and threat play in producing it.

And I don't love you guys enough to sacrifice myself for goals. Plus Hernandez.

Not gonna get anything done uni wise thanks to the replay tomorrow either.

He won't be as good as ronaldinho IMO.

 

[kharma45]

Get Cleverley on for Giggs, and Berba on for Young.

 

[WJD]

I'm drifting off here.

And FFS use your left Valencia.

 

[Jeff Albertson]

Perfectly good rooooooooneey opportunity passed up, something is afoot

robben or

altintop?

No, I think Klopp just gave Götze too much play time this season. With Reus joining and Kagawa hopefully staying, he could be given enough time to rest. It's similar to Wilshere.

On top of his great play at Santos, the guy has 8 goals in 16 matches for his senior national team at age 19. How often does that happen? Half those guys barely have as many goals for their club as Neymar has for his country!

Striker score more goals than midfielders, not a good way to compare different players.

 

[Fry]

As long as he plays consistently at the top level. Ronaldinho lacked that.

 

[dc89]

Wilshere is the new Owen and you all know it!

You going? Should be a cracking atmosphere if the Arsenal cup game is anything to go by.

 

[elsk]

All quite talented but I think that they'd be on the move if an offer of 30-40 million or so came through. Neymar is worth 50.

So? haha you think big money = more talent?
Breno was like 20M and he's shitter than shit. He was the best defender in Brazil when he was like 17 years old. Doing good in Brazil doesn't translates in being a world class player.

Also, Brazil is playing friendlies against shitty NT like Costa Rica.
Neymar is going to flop if he leaves Brazil, that's why he doesn't want to leave.

I wouldn't worry about that It was never the coach, it's the players.

He could use some reserve players, no? :/

You know he's leaving

 

[Salvadora]

Don't you dare.

 

[The Super Bob]

Anyway, where's Nani?. He always seems much more effective and dangerous than Young.

 

[Salazar]

Dammit. Clevz not Scholesy.

 

[Blablurn]

what a boring match :/

10m.

but still shit

Indeed I'm getting a lot of my paper done faster than expected.

I see... that's certainly more interesting than 'Do young players recovering from injury require physiological coaching alongside their physio and regular coaching'

 

[K1LLER7]

Ability wise, I don't see many better than ronaldinho, agree on the consistency though.

 

[Meier]

This is true. But those guys are all either attacking mids/wingers or forwards so that's kind of irrelevant.

Anyone who thinks Neymar will flop is a nut. I'm sure he won't be able to do as many ridiculous things he does with the ball when playing in Europe, but the talent and finishing ability doesn't just disappear.

 

[Carbonox]

Shit I'd get Aaron Hughes back at Newcastle if it meant not playing Perch at CB.

 

[Yurt]

He could use some reserve players, no? :/

Nah, all of their squad is reserve material already.

 

[elsk]

10m.

12m, actually.

 

[LegoArmo]

Livened up a bit. Nice volley from Young.

 

[Messi]

Awesome defence.

 

[CoffeeJanitor]

Woahh!!!

 

[Mr. Luchador]

SOME

ED!

 

[kharma45]

How did United not score?!

 

[K1LLER7]

Oh my word, should've scored

 

[WJD]

This is getting ominous.

 

[Milchmonster]

You know he's leaving

I'm lightly optimistic. Watzke said last week that there will be a result in the next few weeks and he expects Kagawa to say yes. If he wants to leave, good cash.

 

[K1LLER7]

Lol Fergie sign him up

 

[Blablurn]

12m, actually.

all this money man, our scouting sucks. no surprise we stopped looking for talents in south america.

 

[Empty]

not sure if we should sub off rooney at 1-0

 

[Messi]

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONEH

off.

Sports Science degree? I know a couple of people doing Sports Psychology (as we have shared a few modules) which looked interesting. Suppose you only do biology related stuff though rather than psychological though?

Uhh, 53 million pounds isn't some trifling figure. It would have been in the top handful of transfer figures ever and certainly the highest for a player of his age. Teams don't throw that much around unless they expect a lot.

He'll move for some astronomical figure one of these days and I guess we'll just have to see what happens then.

We got no scouts in south america. We had a former player picking random players, just because brazilian media says they are good.
edit: and also, if we're focusing in "making" our own talents like Badstuber, Contento, Mueller, Lahm, Alaba, Schweini then I'm ok with that

They expected the same from Robinho. It ended nicely.

 

[K1LLER7]

Evra Wthell was that

 

[Rad-]

Evra.

 

[Hixx]

12 yards out, take a swing at it man Evra.

 

[Empty]

Evra Wthell was that

what was he doing in that position anyway

 

[Salazar]

Our finishing has been Liverpool standard.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Ah. I meant Psychological rather than Physiological (had just written physiological in my work before hand).

Yeah we do a bit of everything.

Biomechanics.
Exercise Physio
Strength & Conditioning
Sports Development
Sports Coaching

Its the Psychology part I'm interested in.

 

[LegoArmo]

De Gea has grown some balls, I'm proud of him.

 

[Empty]

great punch dave

evra scares me everytime he runs miles up the pitch. so much space behind him.

 

[The Friendly Monster]

Getting nervous here.
