Kagawa handles the football like it's a porcelain doll. Such a silky touch.

God I hate Paddy so much.

Annoyed I'm missing this. What's the consensus?

Petrucci, Kagawa and Brady all having good games. Kagawa looks like he's still adjusting to the team. Finds himself in possession in really dangerous places but isn't finding a teammate to make the final pass too. Macheda, Anderson and Valencia all look like ass, though. Is Tony V even still playing? I feel like I haven't seen them even touch the ball.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

It's odd. Brady is the converted winger, and Blackett seems more dangerous in the final third.

 

[Vivalaraza]

So boring. Slow and lethargic.

Pre-season is lame.

 

[Salazar]

Gerroff Macheda.

Viva is right. I'm going to bed. Will read about second half before watching.

 

[K1LLER7]

Bring on Bebe for Macheda.

 

[Salazar]

Bring on Bebe for Macheda.

Bebe should go and do his dance in front of Macheda on the bench after he scores. Massive, massive windup.

 

[Clegg]

Can't watch the game but from reading this thread it looks like Kagawa and Petrucci are playing well.

Has Anderson improved at all or does he still look shite?

 

[K1LLER7]

imo he's played well. the other teams got everyone behind the ball.

 

[Wilbur]

Petrucci is my new idol.

Kagawa is so good on the ball.

Anderson is wank

Powell quiet

 

[Yurt]

Pazzini's #7 was given to Coutinho without anyone asking Pazzini about it. He walked in on Coutinho in the locker room wearing his number.

Classy.

 

[KidA Seven]

Shanghai is parking the bus. There's no way Anderson can make it past the great wall of china.

 

[K1LLER7]

Petrucci is my new idol.

Kagawa is so good on the ball.

Anderson is wank

Powell quiet

Don't think Powell is really a CM. Need to see more of him though.

 

[Zabojnik]

Pazzini's #7 was given to Coutinho without anyone asking Pazzini about it. He walked in on Coutinho in the locker room wearing his number.

Classy.

#PazziniDamiaoFuture or something.

Could be worse though. Imagine the hilarity if he'd have walked in on Quagliarella wearing his number.

 

[GorillaJu]

BEBEBEBEBEBEE!~~~~

 

[kharma45]

Johnstone for Lindegaard, Bebe for Petrucci, Tunnicliffe for Powell.

Time to fap to Bebe.

 

[KidA Seven]

Bebe coming on. I hope he graces us with his crosses.

Bolded have paid, italics are TBC

 

[Carbonox]

Bebe with a good ball? :O

 

[KidA Seven]

Bebe with a bad cross O_O

 

[K1LLER7]

what a ball from Bebe

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Woah. Bebe hits a decent ball.

 

[Carbonox]

So close.

 

[KidA Seven]

Bebe's inclusion is giving the team confidence. Playing much better now.

 

[K1LLER7]

Bebe comes on, team starts to play better.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Can't help thinking Anderson should've left it for Bebe. :lol

 

[Ushojax]

Ugh, the way they are pronouncing Kagawa is making me cringe.

 

[Cuddler]

I really hope this videos are not posted yet, apologize if they are.

Del Piero goal in a Japanese Friendly

Marchisio talking about FIFA, it will be on the Italian cover with Messi

 

[Brinbe]

All bout the Bebe

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Ugh, the way they are pronouncing Kagawa is making me cringe.

Really? I thought "that little Japanese fellow" was accurate.

 

[K1LLER7]

kagawa stylin

 

[Kikarian]

I am a big fan of Tunnicliffe and Petrucci, Good players to have on the bench to bring on in the later stages of a match. Of course, not an important match.

 

[KidA Seven]

Bebe corner? Oh shit...

 

[GorillaJu]

Ugh, the way they are pronouncing Kagawa is making me cringe.

"KA guh wuh" is at least better than "kuh GAW wuh"

 

[KidA Seven]

Just heard Ka-Guh-Wuh

 

[Brinbe]

Really liking what I see from Kagawa. His constant movement in the final third is refreshing. Exactly what we needed.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

I am a big fan of Tunnicliffe and Petrucci, Good players to have on the bench to bring on in the later stages of a match. Of course, not an important match.

Yup. Tunnicliffe and Petrucci, in particular, have impressed more than Powell. Obviously more used to the system, though.

 

[kharma45]

Fuck you Macheda.

Such good work from Shinji.

 

[LegoArmo]

Macheda will never be good enough.

 

[KidA Seven]

Shinji

 

[Carbonox]

Kagawa <3

 

[Tc91]

Fuck off Macheda. Shinji beastin.

 

[Kikarian]

Cant wait to see Kagawa with Rooney, Nani (If he doesn't leave), Welbeck etc...

 

[GorillaJu]

every syllable should be completely flat with no rise or fall in intonation, and there's no "empty" vowel sound in Japanese, you have to clearly pronounce the "a" vowel in every syllable.

so it should sound exactly like it's spelled "Kah Gah Wah" but English speakers tend to add emphasis to the second syllable in 3+ syllable words, and change the surrounding vowels to an empty &#601; (schwa) sound. so it sounds like k&#601; GAH w&#601;

 

[K1LLER7]

Cant wait to see Kagawa with Rooney, Nani (If he doesn't leave), Welbeck etc...

Moura

 

[Carbonox]

Chinese football :lol

 

[Kikarian]

Moura

and Cirigliano

 

[dc89]

Kolo could be set to stay at City after failing to agree terms with Bursaspor.

not Martinez

 

[Carbonox]

Macheda seriously needs to fuck off. Terrible player.

 

[K1LLER7]

and Cirigliano

and RVP

 

[Brinbe]

They love themselves some Chicha
