Did Jack Robinson travel for the game against Anzhi? We need to get him some gametime, if he succeeds straight away we can save the money that would otherwise be spent on a leftback
Well that went badly

Mourinho's brilliant, true character of the game. Always irks me when people want football to be this utterly sterile, respectful, milk and two sugars sport. Let's have Mourinho running the length of the pitch, let's have Balotelli ripping his shirt off and baring his chest, and let's have Suarez diving at Moyes in a Merseyside derby. Fuck respect, this is football.
Get that into your head.
Get that into your head.
Agreed.
Agree 100%
Couldn't agree more. But the bitter tears also make it that much more awesome in some sick way......

Can I hate Mourinho and like the other things?

Mourinho's bird flu presser is stuff of legend,
Brilliant.
The only part of football I hate is when cunts like RVP assault players on the pitch behind the referee's back and get away with it.
I love me a good personality.

Look through my post history. I posted the squad earlier.Did Jack Robinson travel for the game against Anzhi? We need to get him some gametime, if he succeeds straight away we can save the money that would otherwise be spent on a leftback

A Champions League final after 40 years, against the best team in the world and you can't even run around the field to celebrate?
Also don't forget Valdes being a dick as usual.
Well then it was cunt on cunt, let em' at it.

Agree but I can't agree with the Mourinho part.

Mourinho is a great pantomime villain, but he's also a brilliant, brilliant manager. He gets the best out of his teams.

I can't wait to watch a match on this field in an hour.
If you like fields like that then you'd love the Russian Premier League.

Jones, Gulacsi, Cole, Assaidi, Pacheco, Henderson, Coates, Downing, Wilson, Carragher, Suso, Shelvey, Coady, Yesil, Flanagan, Wisdom, Robinson, Morgan, Sama.
For me
Poking Vilanova in the eye took him beyond the boundaries of your Ronaldo-style pantomime villain, and into the relams of your Suarezish utter cunt

Omelette's. Eggs.
Jose was so boss at Chelsea. He seems very sour at Madrid now. But I think he is 100% in control of his behaviour and I think he behaves the way he does at Madrid to help his team.
Not saying it was cool when he poked Tito's eye or some of the other stupid things he's done. It wasn't. But I think it's all part of the game for him. And for me that, in many ways, is something you have to admire.
You can't doubt him as a manager. He's as good as any. And when he wants to be he's charismatic and funny as hell.

Oh no!! Rodvik 'claims' he doesn't hate Barca anymore but I am not sure
Damn Yurt, I like Juve, only like Napoli more lol. "That guy" is now our coach. I just hated that moment, I don't hate a lot of things, but I hated that. Imagine Wenger or Fergie doing that to any other coach...lol
The fact he got away with no punishment was hilarious too..
Mourinho poked Vilanova.

I think it's because of the league he's in. I feel like the British appreciate his behaviour more than the Spaniards/Italians.
How was he in Italy? I know a lot of coaches hated his guts.
There's a team doing the rounds on rawk that's 352. Flanagan and Downing as wing backs, Coady in midfield, and Yesil and Cole up front.
That's like saying you like Salazar AND Kermit. Or (for Kyoufouo) you like Edward AND Jacob!
PICK A SIDE!

He insulted pretty much everyone in Italy, lol. I thought he was funny. Annoying, but funny.
It's assault, is it not?
Too easy.

NO! Fady can support 50 teams why can't I just like 2 italian ones. I don't have any reason to hate either, yet(wait til we meet in round of 16).
Wasn't even the best goal in that game.
Eh, about the eye poking, sure, it's the morally wrong thing to do, but it was entertaining as fuck for me and my friends. I can sit back, cross my arms, and shake my head, but I'd rather laugh and admire Mourinho's eccentricity. He chats shit sometimes, most memorably for me when he used to talk about events relating to Liverpool, he could do things he just shouldn't do, such as the eye poking, but I won't lambast him for either, it's just part of being the manager that he is.
My favourite Mourinho press conference was when he named the Barca team.
This.
I fucking love Mourinho. The fact that he's still young is reassuring, he'll be around for many years (if he doesn't get tired of managing).
lol, is there a link to that?

He looks so old now though
The Scottish leagues have better attendance per capita than most countries in Europe (England included), a history of punching above it's weight in European competition and a decent quality of football. It's bad luck that it's constantly compared to the bloated, sell out of a mess that is the English Premier League just down the road from us. The league is recovering from 20 years of trying to match levels of spending from down south (look at Rangers - lol) and has lost it's way in terms of youth development, but that's a whole other story.
I hear your sentiments with regards to teams like Ajax, Belgrade, Anderlecht, etc. Sadly it's the Champions League that's to blame for the decline of football outside of a few specific leagues. It was pretty much set up with a dozen teams in mind, the objective being to make them richer. It ain't going to change while football whore itself around the world as a self-declared 'product'. It's a sport, and it's one where the goals have been moved for most teams.
Saying that, I've never been prouder to be a Celtic fan. It feels good to know that people all over the continent have been able to witness the resurgence of Celtic Park as an absolute fortress on European nights, partly down to the incredible support. Hail hail!
