Bilbao and Barca are both playing today. I love both teams.
Is he the only guy who does that? Pretty strange.
I've seen him dribble past 6 guys and finish. Seriously.
He's shit 95% of the time, though.
well, he's the special one.
Today I realized just how excited I am that Fenerbahce is returning to the Champions League next season. Our team has grown so much over the past two seasons and I honestly believe that we may have some of the better talents in Europe in our team.
Miroslav Stoch has been the most outstanding buy our staff has ever pulled off. Chelsea did good by letting him go because he has seen rapid growth with us. I truly believe that Stoch will be one of the future stars of European football. I can't imagine he will stay with us much past a couple more seasons.
Moussa Sow is hot property and its obvious that Fenerbahce was the last club expected to land his signature during the transfer window. If rumours were true, he turned down Liverpool and Arsenal for us. I'm sure we offered more money but most players would still rather choose the reputation of the Premiere League. He has repaid the money we have spent on him instantly, already having scored 8 goals in 13 games.
I must thank Juventus for Reto Ziegler and also Arsenal for putting in a bid for Santos which allowed us to pursue Ziegler. Ziegler has had a quiet season at Fenerbahce and for a defender that is always a good thing. I look forward to having Ziegler defend our left flank for seasons to come and hope we can sort out a deal with Juventus.
We have a solid team with experienced players. I still believe that Alex and Emre are world class and just need the stage to prove that they are. With a lot of European teams that would make up the rest of the top 16 in the Champions League getting weaker I'm actually confident in our ability to reach the round of 16 next season! Hell APOEL made the freaking Quarter Finals this year!
I may just be getting worked up because everyone in Turkey is rivaling against us in the super final but we've remained resilient all season and its carried on into the Super Final in which if we beat Besiktas tonight, which will be no problem, we'll be only 3 points behind Galatasaray who have to face us in our stadium where they haven't beaten us for 12 years!
The time for Fenerbahce is now!

And he'll probably be played out of position.
I use Sky Bet, because they're one of the only ones who believe I'm over 18 (I'm 22).
Glad he's doing well. Was extremely gutted when we sold him.

Easy win against Sevilla that points me out that Higuaín will leave for sure this summer.

We'll buy him.

I don't understand the hate for benz
It's not hate, it's that many of us think that Higuaín is a better striker.
Doing well is an understatement.
The quality he possesses is not a regular thing in the Turkish League. I imagine a lot of Twente fans felt the same way when he was on loan there.
I know. It was just funny that after the people here posted Higuain is the better striker Benz scores 2 goals.

Karma is a bitch.
Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini, Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Marchisio Giaccherini, Borriello, Vucinic
You won't face any problems here.

Problem is that Higuaín's salary is below Benzema's. And he wants at least the same money, so, his mood this last months hasn't been the best towards Mou, who seems to be the person that now controls money issues as well lol.
Pay him whatever money he wants, he gave us two Ligas and this season has the best ratio of goals/minutes in the whole team.
No way in hell we can attract a talent like Kagawa. Unless he's simply looking for money and fame, why on earth would he come to Liverpool? He'll probably win nothing and get played out of position.
Not that I wouldn't love to have him there... but going from THE top team in Germany to 8th place in the Premier League... yeah, that would be an interesting move indeed. :lol
We can and should get Gaston Ramirez, though. Having Suarez and Coates would make us a pretty attractive club for a young player who'd have virtually no competition for him in his position. He's a good fit for the PL - quick, big and physical, and direct. I wouldn't be shocked if a team sitting higher in the table coerced him out of our grasp.
To me there's no question that Benzema is a better footballer.
But Higuain is better looking, doesn't whine, and works hard - three qualities fans love.
If Higuain's salary is below Benzema's then Mourinho definitely hates him lol. Worry not SW, we'll welcome Higuain at Newcastle.
Noel is a glorious man.
The man likes to enjoy his music. Last year I went to see U2 in Torino and the stadium went nuts when Del Piero was spotted in the crowd. He was standing like five meters from me and he actually turned his head when I yelled CAPITANOOOO. True story, bro. One of my biggest achievements as a tifoso!
That way Sahin has a partner for rock, paper, scissors on the bench =P
We all know who runs the show.
Platini and Boniperti are watching, don't let us down guys.
Awesome
Did he shush you?
Nah, he wouldn't.

Nah, he wouldn't.

Sturridge with his right foot? What is this sorcery?
Gareth Bale

Great strike, but you shouldn't be beaten at your near post from there

That's basically the ideal goal for Daniel Sturridge.
Passes to himself and scores.
