Very classy kit, man!
Ask what the stars stand for
Roy Hodgson is the new England Coach, huh? Woah, blast from the past. Did he eventually learn how to pronounce his name?
Aldo, Giovanni e Giacomo were comedy gods back then, sigh.
Rasmus Elm would be a solid addition to the Liverpool squad. Seen him a few times in the Dutch league and watched most of his international appearances for Sweden. Good passer, decent shots and good work rate. He's not a wimp and would probably fit in the PL.
On the other hand, it's just a rumour.
Once when I watched him play in the league, Man Utd scouts were watching the game. Apparently, they've watched him more than once.

no its a custom set of FOX 40's that FIFA get created for International referees. I gain access to it by being a nationally accredited referee and refereeing stadium football (need to blow over the crowd noise, its ridiculous how loud it is)

Wasn't NBAGAF on lockout for a while because of sexism or something?
Was he talking about Keans players or Keans mental abilities? 8)
Or his physique, perhaps.
Boom!
Tevez quotes from the Manchetser Evening News:
'my relationship with the manager is totally fine, he's been as good as gold with me and there have been no problems.'
'I want to repay his (Sheikh Mansour) faith and stay for as long a it takes to make the project a success.'
'I am an ambitious person, I want to work hard and win things with City, that's all that matters to me as a player and a person.'
Well that's him off in summer then. I would quite like him to stay though.

I could relish in the silence if Tevez scores though.

Awesome! City shirts reduced on the online store and you get free European style printing, the superior font basically.

what he meant to say:
i don't want to fight for a spot, i rather stay in juve where there is less competition for me to start
madrid needs to get javi martinez, kagawa and rvp (if higuain goes to psg)!
Fernando Torres: The white shirt is very famous and for a lot of players their goal is to one day play in that Madrid shirt because they are seen by many as the biggest club in the world. The white shirt is a huge privilege for players, but for me the biggest privilege in Europe is the red shirt of Liverpool.
I'm going to start writing down all the names of players you think Real needs to buy and you'll see how absolutely ridiculous you sound chirping in here talking about other teams' players week in and week out. You think every fucking footballer who's ever made headlines should be bought by Real Madrid.
Madrid to buy Tevez, Kompany, Silva, Suarez, Cleverley, RVP, Bale and Modric this summer. Confirmed.
About Torres, this is how I look at it: He was clearly not the man he once was. He wanted to start again from scratch, hoping that it was Liverpool (their tactics/manager/team) and not him that caused his dip in form.

I agree, I'm not saying Vidal's situation is parallel, it's just funny how damn near identical the two quotes are.

Pity he can't file some awesome tax returns.
Clevpeasant doesn't even deserve to be mentioned along side Chargod
I assume he attained divine status by eating other gods with curry sauce.
They're both a few rungs below JONJO DEITY.
Now that is pretty good.
I really hope arsenal sell Diaby. It is just stupid now. You can only persevere with a players injuries for so long until it becomes a money spinning waste of time. I understand Wenger's reluctance given his bias towards French players but I don't see how giving Diaby another season with us is justified while complaining on the other hand that 25 player squad restrictions is not enough.
To be fair, maybe that's what England need, a manager who doesn't come with a huge price tag, a big name, a massive reputation of winning things. England fans and the media need to lower expectations, we are not good enough to win anything at the moment.
And the last time the people's choice got the job, well, that was Keegan and look what happened there.

I suspect his time will come when the Coq establishes himself.
I can't see how Wenger can complain about small squads considering he utilizes a core of 15-17 players.
As an Arsenal fan I expected a little better than "Wenger's bias towards French players" - here's your team from Saturday, I'll leave the rest to you:
Szczesny, Sagna, Vermaelen, Koscielny, Gibbs, Rosicky, Ramsey, Song, Benayoun, Van Persie, Gervinho.
I recall saying a few weeks ago that what England should really do is abandon the hope of actually playing attractive football and just stick to their strengths, playing a Stoke-esque 4-4-2 with big target men and tough tackling midfielders, so in theory Hodgson is a good choice since that seems to be his favoured tactics.
Unfortunately I doubt Hodgson has the tactical nous or force of will to actually pick the right players, chances are he will stick with the same old England players while trying to force the likes of Rooney, Sturridge, Wilshere, etc. into the aforementioned 4-4-2.
If you ask me there is absolutely no need to lower expectations of the media and the fans; the mere fact that the appointment of Hodgson has been met with some optimism is enough to suggest to me that England ambitions are already in the toilet.
I feel the same way. I wish it never came around
I've got an assignment to finish today so I'm hoping that'll take my mind off it for a while...
A very talented player but its a shame about the injuries, I don't know if I would sell him now but he seriously needs to stay fit.
Everything is going to be alright. Nani seems fit. Clev will come on. He isn't fucking thick enough to play Giggs centrally. Welbz knows where the goal is.
I bet he isn't
No he wont
Yes he is
No he doesn't.
GAH and Evra vs Silva. Fuck my life
