Haha, cool, I must've missed your introduction post.
I've sensed he isn't a big fan of Man Utd, so you two must fight a lot about football?
He will come to his senses and support a real team soon :-D

Pogrebnyak is a perfect example of how difficult it is to determine how good a foreign player is going to be in the Premier League.
I think he's lost it. Cahill's their best defender but he's normally benched for an old man and a fucking mental.

Torres is trash. Please end this experiment.

Yep, new Torres is back.
Good ball from Hazard, though.

Give us Cavani already!
Thanks!
Who?
I have not, but I did watch the match on 8-17-2011. I also have seen about half of Barcelona vs Real Sociedad from a few days back.
You're nearly doing a Lunchbox there, next thing you'll be demanding Pogrebynak stick around to sort out personal terms after the match.
Operation Half Time Shower is now in effect.

Wow, what a great display from Malaga in that first half, all over Panathinaikos. That 2nd goal was great(first was good too).
Chelsea losing to Reading?! Time to look for Sunhi GIFs.

Wassssup footballfan. Keep an eye out for me when watching the clasico tomorrow!
:lol will do. Where are your seats located? Will you be wearing a Barca shirt? If so you will most likely blend in with the other 95,000 people wearing the same thing.

MICHO GOAL WAS GREAT! The Bayern spirit is alive in him
Haha. He is so slow, but always seems to score, maybe it just seems like it.

Swiss ramble is all about the finances
If you wanted something historical, this is pretty good on zonalmarking despite youtube videos not working anymore.

So jealous, would love to watch just one classico live.
Terry is probably confused as to why he is not being booed every touch of the ball.

Any why Mikel is starting.
Likewise. For all the negatives, these are the two best teams in the world.
I only played the old Dreamcast/PS2 one, which was a pretty standard 2D fighting game. I checked on YouTube, the 3D game(s?) seems to be based on Part 5. It takes place in Italy, of all places, with Giovanna Giorno (it's actually Giorno Giovanna) as the main protagonist. I didn't care much for it. They take the whole stand thing up another notch and it just becomes ... too much. Too crazy, too absurd, almost nonsensical. To make it even worse, the characters, which were always the strong point of the series, are just so ... uninteresting. Starting with Giorno, who's an empty sheet of paper when compared with Jotaro and Josuke. Part 6 is even worse, which is where I stopped reading. Couldn't believe how bad it got. At the time there were a lot of rumors saying that starting with Part 5, Araki simply supervised the series and let his assistants do most of the work. Probably bullshit, but it would explain the sudden drop in quality.
I'm OT and obsessing and in full nostalgia mode, but I can't help it. Used to love JoJo to death in my younger years.
I wish you wouldn't have to experience it through inferior alternative means, Yurt.

Guys, is it really a good idea to introduce someone to Chelsea's tactics when they're trying to learn about the beautiful game?

I've only been able to watch one Clásico and it was an amazing experience.
Watching Altintop and Carvalho defending was priceless.

I think the negatives are overplayed a bit, it really isn't that bad.. Yeah Pepe does some stupid karate move every now and then, Busquets does some dumb play acting every couple games etc but other than that semi final in the CL where it was truly dreadful stop and go play, it is usually great. Even in that semifinal we still had something to be amazed about(Messis 2nd goal running past 4-5 players) edit For example the game above that Wrath is talking about, yeah Pepe did some ridiculous stuff in it, but the game itself was damn entertaining.

Got to learn about the night football died. He wanted history and I don't know how the whole game dying could not be exactly what he was looking for.

The night that football died. Amazing.
I take it you didn't see the possession stats....

Football died in the Semis. It's grave was desecrated in the Final. You're right, it should be remembered.
