On the other hand, we have two of the worst GKs in Italy. That's impressive, isn't it?

Hey, Abbiatti is good.

 

[MrPing1000]

Has football started yet?

 

[Hixx]

She's a complete attention seeker it was obv from her time on The Apprentice.

Don't understand why people give it to her.

I don't mean you specifically btw, more media outlets etc, although I guess the answer to that is obv.

Never heard of her.

But she was on about people name their kids after places or things.

Her kids are called India and Poppy.

 

[Bumhead]

So much moaning about the fucking roof.

Football season, please hurry.

Liverpool had no problem meeting fee, believed to be £21.5m, butI believe they never actually got chance to put their case to the player.

That's unfortunate. I'm sure if they had a chance to explain their history to him it would've swung it.

I'm not going to laugh at Liverpool missing out on their top target when all United have done this summer is sign a 20 year old for £1m

Pep,

Guess it was your usual PC.

Did anyone even ask him about Thiago?

Nah, they were told not to after seeing him behind the curtain, for legal reasons.

I'm glad for Dortmund though. Mickey looks like a very good player.

A Gundogan/Mickey/Bender midfield sounds sexual.

Nope, half of it was about Shrek. Then he got asked about transfer targets and someone said apparently the journalist asked about Ronaldo.

Linked with Thiago for over a month....ask no questions about a transfer

You greedy bastards.

 

[Ushojax]

City, Chelsea and Spurs have all signed exciting central midfielders before United.

What's taking so long?

That ball boy kids reaction to Hazard kicking him defo funniest moment of last season.

They don't sign CM's. They make them from defenders and strikers.

 

[Joel Was Right]

did you really post pictures in that referee thread

No. I posted a link to a website that did

 

[Ushojax]

The funniest thing from last season was Bayern v Barca. Tragi-comic.

Remember when Rafael played in midfield? If you've got two working legs you can play as a CM for United.

 

[qindarka]

Barcelona. Plus he's better so he's worth the wait.

Is Thiago that much better than Paulinho and Fernandinho who have arguably achieved more in their careers.

 

[Clegg]

Still can't believe we won the league so easily with only one quality midfielder.

 

[Pachimari]

Seems like we have signed Illarramendi guys!

We'll play something like this:

Casillas

Carvajal - Varane - Sergio Ramos - Marcelo

Illarra - Xabi Alonso

Özil - Isco - Cristiano

Benzema

You can exchange Xabi Alonso for Luka Modric if you want.

It's the spine. RVP - Rooney - Carrick - Ferdinand - De Gea. No matter the shit that's slathered around it that spine is still strong enough to win any match.

BAE:

Asked about his future, he said: "When you spend seven years somewhere it is obvious you are happy there. I am not a man who likes to swap his team every two or three years and the club is a part of my world. I want to stay at Tottenham."

BAE you just sit tight and refuse any transfer talks. I'm not ready to let you go.

 

[Zabojnik]

So Newcastle want to sign Giaccherini too?

I smell copious amounts of BULLSHIT, Italy. BULLSHIT.

Giak isn't going anywhere.

Should've kicked him in the face. Just look at that mug.

 

[Salvadora]

Remember Ferdinand against Spurs last season? Times ticking away for him..

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

He's being groomed to take over from Xavi, so yes. And what have those two achieved exactly?


Have they won La Liga or the CL?

 

[L1NETT]

There is still 2 months left?

Also, United walked the league with apparently a really awful squad. They don't need to buy tons of players.

Two fifths of that spine were pretty poor for large parts of the season. Rooney never really got going and Rio only started playing well in December.

We could score at will but then fell to pieces when teams started to pressure us. Signing Thiago would add a lot of creativity to our midfield but we'd still be lacking a physical presence.

Alex Song won La Liga

 

[Ushojax]

Remember the other 36 games? Bale shat on most defenders, against the rest of the league Rio was excellent. For me he was the most consistent CB, his instincts are still excellent. Bale only ravaged him because United had no midfield.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Shit happens. Djimi Traore has a CL medal.

 

[Blablurn]

lol, kirchhoff, gomez and götze have to pay a fine for wearing those nike clothes : D

at least they will use the money for a good cause and give it to the flooding victims in east germany.

 

[KidA Seven]

Rightfully so. Adidas is an important sponsor, so wearing Nike clothes is not really acceptable. It's going to a good cause, so they shouldn't mind.

I don't get it. So is no one sponsored by Nike? Can they wear nike shoes?

 

[Salvadora]

He'll be 35 this year, Ush. He hasn't got long left at the top level.

Rooney could be gone this summer too. That's a chunk of that spine gone right there.

 

[Milchmonster]

The Gomez fine is a joke, nobody would have cared for his cap if it wasn't for Bild. He should make them pay the fine.

Hmm...

I wonder if pro tennis is more demanding than pro football? In terms of, Murray has just played there, he probably has training tomorrow and then he goes again on Sunday. I guess football is every week for like 38 weeks, and tennis tournaments are once every now and then etc.

Thoughts?
