Great picture of Villa legends after the win, plus the hunchback of notre dame. :)

same. colombian league is shit. I just thought you would like serie a and la liga . what is your affinity to bundesliga?

I like all major leagues, but there isn't anything that makes me want to watch them constantly. Although there is a channel (FOX SPORTS) that will be airing Serie A in HD from now on, so I might watch it more often. La Liga has higher quality of football in my opinion, but meh, most of the games that are on TV are from Real or Barca. I'm not gonna go on stream to watch the other teams.

Bundesliga, besides my affinity to Bayern, of course, it's got the german talent that I love to watch, I think it has the highest quality of football in the world, so many young and promising players. And it's pretty competitive; I started following in 2010, since then only Borussia have won the title, but the top 7 has been pretty unpredictable. Just look at Frankfurt, as a recent example. (newly promoted team)

Not to mention that both narrator and commentator that cover the Bundesliga here in Brazil are the best ones in the business. <3

So i fired up PES 2013


hmmm

so many problems still exist such as the fact referees still do not card after bad tackles when an advantage is played. THIS RUINS THE GAME.

it means you can hack the shit out of players with no fear unless the foul is called. Its just stupid

How the hell do you play good defence in this game? Everyone else seems to be able to intercept the ball and steal it off me with ease...

Welcome back odd!
The whole team looked out of it really, I wont single out Pirlo. We do need to start resting him more though.
Yeah, they played well and we were collectively sucking. I somehow doubt it was a fitness issue, he was rested against Chievo.

I can see the Arsenal game being a high scoring encounter. They are our first real test since Athletico Bilbao and I just hope we don't get embarrassed again.

Are you saying we were a fake test? :p

" Antonio Valencia left Carrington on crutches & with his right foot in a protective boot as the medical team try to assess his injury"

I'm pretty certain they do, every PES game going back to 5 I can recall cards being handed out after advantage has been played. I know once or twice you would see the ref 'forget' if the ball didn't go out for ages, but they certainly will card in most situations.

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
The Mail seem to think Gomes or Cudicini will play against Carlisle tonight. That really would be taking the piss out of Lloris. Just loan them to a Championship side already.

Apparently just turned 16 yr old Jerome Sinclair has travelled with the Liverpool squad for the game against West Brom - he would be comfortably the youngest ever to play for Liverpool if he came on.

Also Enrique is injured again so expect to see the current youngest ever player, Jack Robinson, at Left back.

Surely must be stupid guessing on the part of the Mail. Lloris is the only logical choice otherwise AVB is going to really wind him up.

If anyone can find highlights of the game for me I'll love you unconditionally forever!

http://www.mcfc.co.uk/citytv/Match-highlights/2012/September/City-v-Villa-extended-highlights

6 minutes worth. Gah it's painful to watch. No one deals with Agbonlahor for any of his goals really. Barry could have assassinated him, but chose not to. Also it's good to see Villa fans on Twitter completely denying the accusation that City fans sang some sick stuff about Petrov. So, it's made up bollocks, that's good.

Welcome back Odd. I was thinking of doing my master in Korea, you better be unbanned when that happens ;)

And who on earth hates Banana? yes, it can be a bad food after your 4th or 5th one, but anyone who hates it irrationally is jts an awful human being, there is no two ways about that.

As much as I hated last night because of our loss, I feel a lot better knowing that Wolves lost in such a fashion, Solbakken out?

and Hulk is awesome and Koln is an awesome city. The only place I went to in German, but the atmosphere was quite good. Too bad I didn't see the shitty football team.
The land of the Bendtner.

The only good thing that country has. yes, that is how you attract visitors. Well done.

Morsel is back. Hai Morsel. We are only 4 down now.

Mancini reckons he is the dc of the PL - getting bullied.

Not "bullied," but I do think what he says is true, that some managers are just too intimidating to ever step up to. Ferguson is one of those. Mancini doesn't have the reputation or the personality to intimidate managers out of it. Not to mention that the Etihad, in general, is a pretty easy ground to play at.

Lol, just heard Raheem Sterling has impregnated a third woman? Dear. God.
