Messi has done the same a thousand times zzzz

btw Cesc will be at the press conference today, hold onto your butts Utd-gaf.

Pretty confident he will just say something along the lines of "I'm here to stay and I'm very excited for the new season"

Would be surprised if he said his future isn't clear atm.

 

[Tc91]

Good to see Ronnie dumped on Mourinho.

 

[LegoArmo]

I spent a sizeable chunk of tonight watching eating challenges on YouTube for some reason. What's with tiny, 120 lbs, Asian people being able to eat a ridiculous amount of food? Impressed.

Can't beat watching furious Pete eating massive burgers in very few minutes.

Sánto @Zizouology
BREAKING: Bernard liked the structure & proposal. He agreed terms & is now a Shakhtar player. Official confirmation in the coming hours [SE]

 

[3Sixty]

Officially on a roll.

 

[justjohn]

Really hate that depressed feeling you get whenever your team loses. I know its just a pre season and madrid are quite good but the performance was pretty awful. Hope we dont meet them in champions league.

 

[Ushojax]

Bale going to Madrid is going to be so funny. He'll go straight into the team and he will never be taken out. I can't wait to see how the dressing room handles it.

Will Ronaldo allow him to take any free kicks?

It will be really funny to see Bale go to Madrid start the first 5-6 matches and then shifted to the bench as Cr7 backup.

LOL maybe if he is injured/not playing he will let Bale take one, maybe.

Nobody fucks with Real Ronaldo.

What a fucking guy.

When you sent me this pic over whatsapp, it made my drunken night. Thanks plug. <3

CL qualifying round is tomorrow. Teams we can face:

1. Pacos de Ferreira
2. Real Sociedad
3. Metalist Kharkiv
4. PSV Eindhoven
5. Fenerbahce

If possible would like us to avoid Fener and PSV. But then if we cant beat either of those two over 2 legs there is not much point in us getting into the competition.

 

[FootballFan]

Imagine after all that 4th place Cl spot celebration arsenal don't qualify haha.

Sociedad pls do it.

 

[Major_Lazer]

Imagine after all that 4th place Cl spot celebration arsenal don't qualify haha.

People say this every season and every season Arsenal make it. Getting to and out of the group stages isn't usually a problem.

Worst case scenario we get Europa League...

Still better than Liverpool.

 

[LegoArmo]

Wait, are those the teams Arsenal can get?

Yep. These other seeded teams can also be drawn against the 5 above:

AC Milan
Schalke
Zenit St Petersburg
Lyon

That's insane. These are the teams Celtic can get drawn against:

Austria Wien
Legia Warsaw
NK Maribor
Ludogorets Razgrad
Shakhtyor Karagandy

Wtf! Why do you guys get it so much easier? I don't understand how they work these things out...

I thought all the seeded teams got shit teams to play. Must be more to it than that.

Celticuefalona.

Celtic should be able to beat any of those teams over 2 legs, but I bet they fuck it up.

Performance last night was so, so bad.

 

[Ushojax]

lol

If they buy Bale he will start every game.

If Perez spends €120m on a benchwarmer there will be riots in the street. Like Torres when he went to Chelsea, it's too embarrassing to admit that your vanity signing isn't good enough for the first XI. The price tag makes these players undroppable.

We can beat any of them but prefer Metalist or Pacos out of those teams but not that concerned with any of them.

If this was later in the season I would be more concerned but we have our full squad and the same squad as last season so we'll be fine against those teams.

Celtic won their league.

Arsenal celebrated like they won their league.

Spot the difference.

The 3rd and 4th qualifying rounds are split into two sections: one for champions and one for non-champions.

Because Celtic are actual League Champions.

Edit: Beaten like Jack Wilshere's missus.

Cheers (you too, 3Sixty), could definitely be some potential upsets then. Arsenal should want to avoid Fener and Sociedad.

Maidenhead United would have won the SPL last year

But not Arsenal.

 

[Linius]

When is the CL draw? Zenit - PSV pls

 

[LegoArmo]

Celtic = Ross County > Barcelona

 

[bjaelke]

Goal Line Technology being shown at the Emirates just now.

It's all about the Capital One cup today.

 

[kingellesar]

Is that one of Fergies watches? ^

 

[FootballFan]

Alves(on Abidal):
&#8220;It was a very unpleasant surprise because of the effort he made to recover. It personally bothered me because I loved him dearly. If Barca is more than a club, it is for such things, for what club has done for him during recovery time, but losing him leaves a bitter taste.&#8221;


(Alves changed his number to Abidal's 22 this season)

 

[Clydefrog]

Nobody fucks with Real Ronaldo.

What a fucking guy.

oh *cries* we will forever remember this moment from the 2013 [insert sponsor] summer friendly tournament.

 

[Lightning]

But not Arsenal.

Or Spurs. Enjoy the Europa league this season.

 

[kingellesar]

We will, with all our summer signings.

Enjoy Suarez.

Ronaldo vs Chelsea

That 2nd goal is immense, Isco is so good. #basedtxiki

6:35 is the fan bit, so classy Ronnie <3

Finally, the Bundesliga is starting again this weekend. For all you Football-GAF folks who don't know which team to cheer on, here's a nice handy chart for you:

Although I'd argue Augsburg in the bottom right corner has a better chance of staying in the first division than Braunschweig to the left of it has… (2. Bundesliga has games on Monday)

You're DC'ing bro

 

[Blablurn]

I still can't fathom how he's playing Martinez as a defender and Lahm as a midfielder. It's just bizarre. I guess our team is good enough to still play well (domestically), but it'll be tough.

Then again, it's still hard for me to get excited after last season, I'm wondering if our players will find the motivation to go all out again.

yeah, everything feels strange : /

I hope Götze is ready soon. I think he could be the missing key.

 

[FootballFan]

The beginning of our treble season starts in 10 days :O

You're DC'ing bro

Don't think he knows what that means.

Being late.

I'm supporting Dortmund. Seriously fuck Bayern.

Sorry, didn't see you're a fairly new member. DC89 is a member here, and it's his habit to present us new things very late after someone else has posted that. So being late is called DC'ing.

We should add a dictionary to the OP.

dc56, a member who posts here, always posts pictures/news after somebody else already has. That picture you posted was posted here yesterday.

Inside joke in this thread. Ignore Linius, he is the mean guy in this community, he attacks everyone and is a 3 teamer like Pulga.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. Just saw the chart, looked at the last few pages and didn't see it posted already.

But then again, this thread seems to go at a rather fast pace…
