The swag being 25 lbs. of muscle, right?
Benzema is playing with one of the best players of all time in Cristiano Ronaldo, along with a team full of world cup winners (including a world cup winning captain) and players who are exceptionally talented.
Liverpool, as it has been well documented hasn't really had the best four recent years. Suarez has been playing with the likes of Stewart Downing, Andy Carroll, Jay Spearing and Jonjo Shelvey.
Suarez still outscored Benz. Benzema should really be scoring more with the team that he is in.
Just like Wayne Rooney, tevez should have been scoring more when CR7 was at manutd amirite?
Benzema and Higuain often get ignored as we pass the ball to cr7 hoping for him to have his hattrick. Intangibles and variables, how do they work?
Suarez is shit. I wouldn't take him even to replace Higuain. Rather have Cavani or Falcao. Real Forwards.
Fair enough. I just love Mitchell and Mack so much. And when they get guests like Henning Wehn on, just turns to gold.

Ashes tomorrow, hyped. Not sure there are many cricket fans on GAF though.

Turok is undoubtedly Madrid's doicare.
Every team should have a doicare.

Yeah. His story about being on Interpol's missing persons list was fantastic.
Fans protesting Pjanic outside Trigoria (Roma's training camp). Truly some of the worst football fans in the world.

Done. But you have to take Ireland as well.
ITT: People who do not understand Real Madrid's setup.
Such is the anguish of being a madrid man. Our forwards actually starve of service since all the service goes to CR7. Has been this way for 3 years and peeps continue to ignore this fact. Willful ignorance or oblivious? I may not be the best armchair coach around but this is elementary stuff. how do you think cr7 has been scoring all those goals? magic?
Love you too Vivalaraza, though purely platonic.

Dude who broke the Benteke story reckons it might be Spurs who are in for him.
Hopefully that happens so Arsenal can gtfo the top 4 and we can have 4 ambitious clubs in the CL.

You're right. He's going for 25M, which is another thing that was mentioned in that telephone call.

Madrid aren't particularly impressive on the ball considering the players they have. It's like the team was built purely to hit Barcelona on the break
Spurs in for a striker, what?

Didn't realise the transfer window was over. My mistake.
Meh...I'll let other posters tell you

Riders On The Storm is an amazing song
You want a striker whois efficiency ratio is at mininum 20%. should be the minimum requirement for every top team's fowards. For perspective Suarez has taken 213 shots last season. Benzema on the other hand, had only 99 shots. CR7 meanwhile has 357 shots and scored 52 for an efficiency ratio of roughly 15% percent. I would argue we would do much better if we change our distribution of attack.
have a cookie.
congratulations, u understand the basic premise of why we are setup the way we are.

who's this meus guy? who do you support? welcome to footygaf
Alfredo Pedulla:
Juve-Sunderland : on the plate could be not only Emanuele Giaccherini , for which the pressing of the Black Cats is total. The British, in addition to Altidore , take another striker. They think Damiao , for which the competition is-as you know-very nourished, mark Osvaldo , but at the moment hesitates, then attention to relations with the Juve that Giaccherini aside, can develop to Alessandro Matri . Paolo Di Canio in fact appreciate much the striker, which in Italy is the dream of Lazio , the ball then passes to the player, who might like an ambitious team that would allow him to compete in the Premier League.

I don't think Moyes was an ambitious appointment
You'll be ambitious for as long as you don't fuck up your status like we did in the early 90s.

The discussion on the last page got me thinking. Would you guys date a girl that supports your club's biggest rival?
One day, some girl was hitting hard on me in my Spanish class. She then took out her phone which had a huge Schlacke logo on the cover. I hate to say it but I was a complete dick to her lol. Well, I guess it mainly depends on how hot she is, anyway. I don't want to sound mean, she was quite pretty but there are definately hotter girls out there. Or maybe it was that logo that made her ugly? I definately have to do some more research in this

Liverpool are shit but they're still an ambitious club.I don't think Moyes was an ambitious appointment

They try to push the boat out, spend money, win things etc.
Clubs like United and Liverpool will always be ambitious.
Never thought I'd see the day when we could afford to spend so much in a player.

I think Hodgson was a massive reality check for a lot of us. Every forum and most fans, it used to be 'title challenge next season' even if we'd finished 5th the season before.
Now I think most of us are happy to make steady purchases that don't put a financial burden on the club, and gradually build our way back to 5th/6th, then push for CL qualification, and then go from there.
We're still trying to go places, but my Koptimism has taken a bit of a battering in these last 4 years
@Milch, yes, but I would avoid football talk. I do not respond well to banter IRL, mainly because most people I used to talk about football with are genuinely stupid regarding it, so it was like trying to have some persiflage with doicare
