Uh, did Kagawa get punched or something?

 

[Carbonox]

That match was worth watching to see Bebe and Kagawa style on the opposition.

What?

 

[Broder Salsa]

I'm busy watching Stevie say Liverpool have the best support in the world, 'that's not bias, that's a fact'.

Any match is worth watching when Bebe plays

Deserves a start when United play Barca.

 

[Akira]

Looked like he had a black eye on the right side.

Can someone summarise the Spurs friendly for me, missed it?

I watched the last 30-35 minutes which were fairly uneventful but both sides seemed to play well. While I was watching, Assou-Ekkoto (sp) seemed like the best player on Spurs. Both sides were definitely getting after it and wanted the win. I was surprised that Spurs didn't get a penalty with about 15-20 minutes left. Foul was at the edge of the box but it definitely was inside it.. no foul at all was called though.

"He plays on the left, he plays on the riiight that boy was homeless but he'll make your look shite!"

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Bebe > Kiko.

Largely drab game, though. Kagawa and Scholes on their own tier. Petrucci and Tunnicliffe impressive. Powell has work to do.

 

[Kozak]

Lol EA

 

[LanceVance]

Boring game, like most pre-season games. Premiership just start already

Know it's just pre-season and these teams are crap but man Kagawa is just as I hoped he'd be. So excited to see him play alongside Rooney, Nani etc. His link up is going to be great.

 

[Ushojax]

Seems to be how he's made his enquiries thus far. I was expecting Spurs interest before Spurs were even interested.

To be fair we were linked with him while Harry was here.

The friendly yesterday was a mixed bag. We were rusty and while we created some good chances and should have had two penalties, our finishing was poor. We lacked authority in midfield and the back 4 was a mess in the first half. Cudicini was in goal and was total dogshit. Once BAE came on for the second half we settled down back there but we weren't sharp enough to put them to the sword. VDV and Walker went of with minor knocks and will miss a few days.

Finished 1-1, Bale header from a Gylfi cross.

From the last two games he's played, he's very similar to Silva.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Except he scores goals.

 

[Kyoufu]

Except he scores goals.

Hey Silva scored in the Euro final!

 

[Phantast2k]

I'm sure he'll try to finish more often than Silva (doesn't mean he's more selfish though), he's also quicker.

/beaten...looked for a video example for too long

 

[K1LLER7]

Hey Silva scored in the Euro final!

The Bebe deals off

 

[GorillaJu]

Spoiler

I'm trolling, don't get your cocks out

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Iniesta's goalscoring record for Barca is rubbish for such a good player

 

[Tim the Wiz]

Hey Silva scored in the Euro final!

Tongue firmly in cheek. You have to admit though, Kagawa's goal-scoring record is more regular, with significantly less starts. Different players, of course. Kagawa is just the more direct magician, and plays closer to the striker.

 

[Yurt]

Jovetic has already agreed personal terms with us, now it's down to the fee.

Same for RVP. (allegedly the back up)

And Pazzini is clearly unsettled and wants a way out.

Aguero has already agreed personal terms with us, now it's down to the fee

Same for Rossi. (allegedly the back up)

And Vucinic is clearly unsettled and wants a way out.

 

[GQman2121]

Yeah, I just saw the Jovetic has said that he would like to play in Turin next year. What kind of money are we talking? At this point in their careers, I would have Jovetic over RVP all day.

 

[PrematureQuiche]

I nearly scored a wonder goal on PES but the fucking crossbar stopped it the c......ock!

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Has it still got rubbish floaty ball-physics?

 

[Messi]

If the United game goes boring you could always watch;

FIFA 13 - Manchester City

They need to do Aguero's tattoo's now they've actually modelled his face properly. Next gen feature I guess.]

edit: I can't see RVP playing for Arsenal in that video.

He wasn't in the arsenal video either.

Balotelli looks ace, Aguero looks a bit dodgy.

I want a Barcelona video.

 

[PrematureQuiche]

It does feel exactly the same as last year. The manual passing and shooting stuff is cool but other than that nothing. I will pick up FIFA though even if it is just the same thing :lol

Cavani's wife left Naples and is in London at the moment.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Fiddled with my FF team and I think i'm close to set now.

Keepers in PES are still diving for top corner shots with both hands out like they're ready to catch it?

It's not bad at all and very similar to my own. Do you really see Clichy playing reliably though? I don't have a City defender for precisely that reason. I know Kompany will start but he's pricy as all hell.

I think he will, hence why I stuck him in.

Who else do they have for LB now that Kolorov is, or has, left?

It's a little bit risky but I think he will play more often than not. He is better than Kolarov and began to prove that towards the end of last season.

I wanted a City defender and he is the only affordable option really so I've gone with it for now.

Jesus the Olympic scoreboard on BBC is awful! Why not just use the normal one?

 

[Broder Salsa]

Cavani's wife left Naples and is in London at the moment.

Hope Roman invited her out on his yacht.

Edit : Or isn't it just for the Olympics? Not even sure if Cavani is playing there.

 

[Akira]

Kagawa did get clobbered somehow. Those sneaky Chinese...

Manchester United failed to make the Premier Section semi-finals at the Milk Cup despite a 2-1 victory over Ichifuna on Tuesday night.

Benjamin Pearson and James Wilson netted for the Red Devils in Ballymena.

Newcastle United will meet Bolton Wanderers in the semi-finals while Cherry Orchard play Desportivo Brazil.

Liverpool eased to a 3-0 win over Swindon Town and they face Brentford in the Junior Section semi-finals with Everton taking on Watford.

Matthew Rimmer put the Anfield lads in front from close range at the Ballymoney Showgrounds before Corey Whelan headed in to make it 2-0.

Liverpool captain Jordan Rossiter hit the bottom corner after good work from the impressive Harry Wilson, who was involved in all three first-half goals.

The victory makes it three wins from three games for the Reds, who are still to concede a goal in the tournament.

Everton set up the possibility of a Merseyside derby in the final after edging out Brentford 3-2.

Pearson fired home a first-minute opener for Manchester United at the Ballymena Showgrounds.

Rio Ishikawa levelled for Ichifuna of Japan before Wilson side-footed into the net for the winner.

Because it's the Olympics and every event uses the same graphics.

Compared to previous Olympics it is very stylised and clear.

I am guessing they use the same graphics around the world? It doesn't really matter anyway haha.

I was just about to ask that. Really noticeable when that header hit the post. I remember noticing something similar in last year's Super Cup.
