Meireles did well this game.
Wondered if anyone else would've left the coverage on long enough to catch this, what did I just watch?
If he was Consistant he'd be up there with the best of wingers but he's too inconsistant for me. On his day he can win a game on his own.
These BBC commentators need to realise the impact Coentrao is having in the Portugal team. Very similar to what Evra did with Ronaldo when he was at Man United
Dench is the word.

So guys what has been the most boring/worst match of these Euros ? I'd say that Portugal - Czech one is probably the most boring match I've watched this far(I did miss a few games though)
I like it. Should be your kit
not just for training.
This is just a training top btw, not our kit. Still, nicer than the Umbro stuff.

Also noticed Eusebio trying to get out of his chair?

If you buy 50 players for cheap, it's still expensive.

Anyone have a link or gif of the goal? I missed it cuz I am at work T_T
Yeah, the guy is mental. He told Jiracek (or some other player) to look for another club already... fucking crazy.

Thank you!
Just had one of those games of Fifa when bullshit mode is activated and everything the opponent does is laced with luck and fortune, and everything you attempt is cruelly shite. Simple passes were being missed, players were randomly out of position and the opponent was lashing them in ridiculously from outside of the box. It's cack, and built into the game. At least the old PES karma systems were based around performance (person playing better gets luck), FIFA just randomly decides to hate you and go against you.

Sometimes you're way better than the CPU and you manage to score two or three times. Then out of the blue CPU starts to play like the best team you ever saw and scores enough goals to make a tie. Despite that, I still play it almost everyday and I love it

I've not played FIFA 12 agains the CPU once in about 100 hours of game time; I just don't find it entertaining. It's the online opposition that I'm talking about, head to head, and it usually occurs in division 2 and 1. And it's not the ability of the opponent, it's like an invisible fortune stat that's always tipped one way, arbitrarily.
Selassie must have felt like "wait what? where did he pop from?"
Credit to Sunhi of course.
Can't say I've had that feeling online. Most of my lost matches were because of my own stupid mistakes or because the opponent was just way better than me. Can't say much about divisions because I'm still stuck with 11. Will buy 13 though

New Wednesday kit:
Mock up with sponsor logo:
Looks good, would have preferred Audi though.

I'm in 2, and these aren't even mistakes. I'm defending as best as possible against Cavani, his backs to goal, he's outside the box and he swivels and hits the most innocuous of precision shots that just so happens to sneak past Reina. It's cack, like I say.
Or I'll tackle him, knock him to the side, yet his player reacts quicker despite being tackled and has a weak shot at Reina which is subsequently parried out into the feet of Lavezzi with an open goal to tap in to.
Or he'll score a drive from 30 yards.
That Wednesday is proper nice.

Okay this picture is just too hilarious not to post:
There's the 19-year-old Australian Mustafa Amini (the red haired dude) who moved to Dortmund just one or two weeks ago. The first thing BVB does with him is send him to some nowhere place in Sweden with the second team. There really is nothing there and they even have to fish their own food. That poor fucking guy
lol, so great. This is probably the coldest he's ever been
Kinda weird for him to bond with the reserves since he's likely to train with the first team (with Langerak as his bud). But then he'll probably have to spend some time with them too now that they're in the third division. I really hope he'll turn out to be a Kagawa-esque dark horse.
All of England's games.
Any match with Greece in it. France - England gets a honorable mention.
Yeah, that's really frustrating. The most of my online frustrations are the following:
- Players trying to take possesion of the ball near the side/end line after my opponent shot it that way. In stead of a throw in my way, my player decides to touch the ball with his breast or feet and work it over the line himself thereby giving the ball to my opponent. Can't seem to do anything about that.
- A long cross from my opponent is coming my way. Instead of running all the way up to the ball, my player tries to reach it with his foot while standing too far away thereby leaving the ball for the taking. Again, can't seem to do anything about it.
- An A-class striker like Ronaldo takes a ball in front of open goal (with his head or feet doesn't matter) and manages to work it over the goal.
- Sometimes when my opponent crosses the ball into the box his strikes heads it in while I wasn't even able to position my defender in front of him. His striker just bashes my defender out of the way like he wasn't even there.
That's what I can come up with now. Quite some frustrations
It's nearing the time where all the transfer nonsense for tomorrow comes to the fore. I can't go to bed now. Now's perhaps the only point in the day where I get to briefly immerse myself back in the world of club football, if just for a couple of hours.
England have only had 1 dull game. Not a lot of great football in the other 2, but plenty of drama.
Haha, O'Neill was at the Springsteen concert at the SoL tonight, said we weren't interested in Heskey. Summer transfer fear #2, gone.
Might do the same, on episode 4.
And please stop bidding on Anita. Okay, thanks!
Time to go to bed, watching some How I Met Your Mother.
Apparently Anita's agent says he fancies a move to Newcastle. Think he's headed over.
For £50m
For £50m
We'd win the league if Pardew/Carr had £50m budget on transfers lol
Yup.
In the Dutch press the only word is that Newcastle has to pay at least 10 million euros to get him. Anita himself said that Norwhich is also interested. And since Paul Lambert went to Villa they expect Villa might be interested also. I'll just wait, hoping he won't leave.
He can play LB, but he prefers CM/LM.

I heard we just bid 12 mil Euros but it's already been rejected. Twente want 15 mil!
Why would he want to leave Ajax for Norwich?! At least Newcastle could play CL in the 2013/2014 if lucky but Norwich?
The only reason would be money in that case. But I don't think he will go there. He only said they're interested in him. Maybe they decided to make it public to raise the pressure for Newcastle in a possible bidding war.
Debuchy needs to come to Arsenal. Hope Wenger isn't dumb enough to not sign another right back... we don't even have a back-up, as it is. might as well raid the french national team for yet another player; only issues are Wenger/board (cheap fucks) and Sagna as competition. can't use it as leverage to force his way into France squad.
oh well, fuck what he wants, sign him anyways plz.
oh well, fuck what he wants, sign him anyways plz.
We're really not going to pay more than 12 million GBP for the guy. He is unproven in a real league
I really hope we get him though. We need a non-African striker and we need Debuchy!!!!!!!!!!!
