Liverpool is bottom of the barrel. some shit bidet level club. where's my towel?
You support Benfica of all clubs :lol

You havent won anything relevant (which is everything outside of Portugal) since the early sixties and its in Benficas nature to just choke in finals, as shown by as recently as this year with you choking agaisnt Chelsea in the Europa and how you hold the record for the most lost European Cup finals. Shit, Liverpool living in the past? You won the European cup when it looked like this:

941736_w2.jpg
I mean, what the fuck is that? the fact that this is when you last won one, the European cup it looked like that just shows how much Benfica have been utter wank in Europe.

You don't just choke in Europe though, as recently you managed to somehow get beat by a team in the Portuguese version of the FA Cup which I've never heard of (Victoria? Who the fuck are they?) and on top of that you bottled the league once again. So sure, you like to deride Arsenal fans with shit, but you are the Arsenal of Portugal which is much worse as there are only four teams that people actually know in that shit league.

Bottom of the Barrel stuff indeed.
 
Yep. They are the best Finnish players ever, no doubt about it :b

I just watched Sami's last Liverpool game a few days ago on youtube.

I actually cried when he started crying :D

Shame he didn't start, but Rafa isn't exactly the manager you want if you're hoping to play based on sentimentality lol

We may not have had a title to win, but we had a match to win, which RAWK never quite got their heads around :D
 
The Sony haters on gaming side got annihilated last night.

Stupendous.

Wish I'd been around, don't have the inclination to go through a megathread

Correct me if I'm wrong, but was it basically this?

1) Eurogamer Spain tease some rubbish, disguised as console-war changing news
2) Xbox guys salivate over prospect of RAM downgrade
3) Turns out to be minor, positive changes to architecture


PS4 OS looks shite

Yeah the last moments were pretty amazing.

He's done good with Leverkusen, finishing 4th last season. Hopefully he can develop and become an even greater coach.

Has Litmanen gone into coaching? I've heard a lot that he was horrendously misused by Houllier, who preffered to have the team twat the ball up for Heskey to flick onto Owen while leaving Jari on the bench

Nope. We're not even sure if he continues playing :lol although he's probably done with playing, there has been no news about him wanting to coach.

Ha, I lost track of his exploits when he was like 42 years old :D

I love it when players carry on until they're physically incapable, goes to show that some footballers still genuinely love playing football

There has been some rumours about him joining some Estonian team but I guess those were just rumours.

He scored this two years ago when he was 39yo

I think he's going to be an advisor for the Finnish football organization.
 
Who the fuck is Kermit?

A city fan from the land of the Pig who at first wanted people to be nice, and eventually became the Dark Lord of football gaf because he didn't get his way. Some of his banter included making fun of people's weight and making fun of Serie A while simultaneously praising the A League. He was banned like 3 times (more if you count his other accounts) and constantly gets into arguments with Arnie on twitter.

Interesting article about Fellaini to United in today's Guardian.

Basically says that Moyes is still deliberating whether to make a bid or not and he'll wait until the 31st of July(day the release clause expires) before deciding what he'll do. They also mention that Moyes isn't convined that Fellaini is worth £23m and may wait until after the release clause expires before making a reduced bid.

looks like Febregas is still our main target.

Yurt

il capo silenzioso
Hell hath no fury like a football fan scorned, truly. It's alright, Yurt. Marry's going after players that are just as high profile. Ibarbo, Biabiany, Zuniga ... Aw yisss.

where's lulic

say lulic

President Aurelio De Laurentiis noted on Twitter this morning “Some media, at times, need to write something and report things which haven’t been verified with the source,” .

“Verratti is not for sale. Agents, through the media, are trying to put pressure on PSG in order to get the player an increased salary.

“We are friends of PSG and we are not taking part in this game.”

AS was supposed to be reliable.

Tottenham asks 120 million euros for the transfer of Bale The English would sit down and negotiate with Real Madrid this figure record. Surpass the 96 million the club paid for Cristiano white in 2009.

Madrid and Gareth Bale knows how much it costs: 120 million euros. That's the forbidding figure why Tottenham sit down to negotiate. Daniel Levy, the Spurs chairman, is aware that Welsh is the dream of Madrid president he believes the icing on his new project and which cast the rest to dress in white. Hence it intends to take a big slice, making the sale of your player most expensive operation in football history, surpassing the 96 million that Madrid paid United in 2009 by Christian (this will face would also support his hobby , who idolizes the end).

If true, then that is astounding. I can't comprehend why Fellaini wasn't done ages ago, Moyes himself paid £17m for him and he has only gotten better since he moved to Everton. It would be a big PL name at a decent price and would substantially improve the team.

They don't need to spend £40m or whatever it would take to get Cesc.
Not sure I understand United's transfer policy here.
 

Ushojax

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
Marca keep bringing the lols

AVB says that not only are Bale contract talks ongoing, but so are Soldado discussions. I hope we get both wrapped up by the end if the week.

I appreciate that Moyes has a better understanding of the player's limitations than anyone. I like that he hasn't been our primary target. Follows my notion that he's effective but sort of limited at the same time.
 
Arsenal target Bernard is available - for £22million, according to Atletico Mineiro.

"The president [Alexandre Kalil] has already made very clear, if an offer of €25 million [£22m] arrives, he is going to sell and we will buy another player," director Eduardo Maluf told Radio Globo.

"If this offer did not appear, Bernard will stay at Atletico. He is young and can leave at the end of the year."

Well, well, let the war* begin.

Fellaini's overrated.

He was top for Everton until January, then he tailed off a bit and his motivation looked to drop after he didn't get a move to a bigger club.

There was one match just after January where Everton did shit and Fellaini in particular was a lazy shit. I was home for the weekend and my cousin came round for dinner and spent like 20 minutes laying into him and saying he wants to get rid. His performance was almost insulting, he got booed off if I remember correctly.

Seems like a bit of a petulant fuckbag. Elbows like a twat, too. He nearly murdered Joe Allen in the derby, which is a fucking red flag as far as I'm concerned.

would fit in well at United
