lol hairless chest

not man enough for BPL

 

[Meier]

He just didn't wanna sign him.

Get over it.

If you honestly believe that, then I'm rolling. We didn't really wanna sign Isco either. That's why it wasn't finalized earlier, that's all.

 

[fuenf]

Big players league?

[Tim the Wiz]

don't do this to yourself, tim. city and chelsea actually have competent managers this time around.

united aren't going to win anything.

No doubt it's going to be much, much closer. Next few seasons are going to be like post-Schumacher Formula One before Vettel started dominating. Moyes has a decent edge with the most stable top four squad, the best striker and a strong young core (De Gea, Rafael, Kagawa, et al.). Hopefully he can be Vettel in this analogy and topple the bigger names too.

Yurt is spreading lies about the chances of us selling top players like Motta and De Ceglie. Brilliant players all, every club would be lucky to have them. Call 188-6969-MARRY.

 

[confuziz]

Dat Strootman money. Let's see how we gonna spend it.

Toornstra + AM?

 

[dc89]

A team that's desperately trying to claw back some positive PR after an embarrassing week.

If said team wants advice they know where to find me. For a fee of course.

 

[Zabojnik]

Berardi: "Juventus? I have to discuss it with my agent and decide what to do, to sign or not."

BEPPE, DON'T YOU DARE FUCKING THIS UP. Seriously, this better not turn into Verratti 2.0. We fucking financed half of Sassuolo's squad just to get to Berardi next year. Get it done.

 

[Yurt]

Simone Pepe: "I'll be training individually for another week before linking up with the team again. I'd like to be back and at the dispense of the team for the Supper Coppa on 18 August. Irrespective of the formation, I think that if we all show the kind of willingness we have done then anyone can play in any position. The team's strength over the last two years has been its organisation."

I can see Pepe becoming a wonderful coach when he retires. Very much in the Conte model.

Conte "Winning is not important; it's the only thing that counts"

Pepe "Winning is not important, it really isn't. LETS HAVE FUN"

I love Pepe, it's a shame he's a bit shit.

 

[Joel Was Right]

So, Villanova has said there have been offers for Cesc. Sky are suggesting they originate from England.

Typical. Yurt just wants his team to keep all the best players at juve, even if it means they are benched.

Greedy. The di Maria of gaf.

Arsenal have not bid for Cesc Fabregas.

BAN. THIS. FILTH.

Use them all on Claudemir before Twente gets him.

 

[bud]

I'm not. Manchester United is still gonna win. Easily.

based on what?

 

[Fergie]

[Yurt]

Typical. Yurt just wants his team to keep all the best players at juve,

Nonsense. To me, the only 'non si tocca' player is Lichtsteiner.

 

[Salazar]

Based on Manchester United winning five of the last seven championships and crushing the competition last season. They have an outstanding squad, they have a (supposedly) non-shitty trainer.

Aye.

These stumbling goobers think they have reached the end of the desert and now they get to drink.

All is dust, bud. For you, there is no lemonade.

This whole "Premier League is so exciting. No one knows who's going to win" shtick is bullshit. It'll be United or - if Moyes really sucks - Chelsea.

 

[Bumhead]

Owls boss Dave Jones has rubbished reports linking them with Newcastle United striker Shola Ameobi.

Jesus christ..

 

[Lambda Pie]

as you all know, Karanka reached a deal with Madrid and left the club.

guess who "vouched" to find Karanka a job as manager in a new team?

Karanka in the PL in 3... 2... 1...

Well three club capable of winning the league is a hell of a lot more exciting than the alternatives in other top European leagues. La Liga is a two way fight, and the Bundesliga and Serie A are decided already.

There is no straight favourite for the Premier League, there are so many variables.

history doesn't matter. new manager. new staff. same old players.

meanwhile city and chelsea have proven managers. and giroud has had a year to settle in.

on paper there shouldn't be a clear favorite but 5 of the last 7 championships tell me something else

Three clubs? There's Manchester United and Chelsea. That's it.

Two clubs. Two. Zwei. Deux. Twee. Dos.

You really saying City doesn't have a good shot?

 

[ElyrionX]

2 seasons running.

It's not the end of the world. You think this is bad, a few weeks into Moyes' reign. What are you gonna be like if we're 6th after 10 games?

It could happen.

No this has nothing to do with our onfield performances and nothing to do with Moyes. Even under Fergie, we haven't been good enough in the transfer market. Sure, RVP was a major coup but other than that, it has been slim pickings.

 

[arkon]

Swansea, Stoke and Arsenal


€150m?

That's like two Neymars rolled up in one transfer.

Or one Illarramendi.

 

[Arnie]

There have been three different winners in the last four years. Of those three teams calling a winner is almost impossible, especially with the new managerial changes.

Compare that to Bayern, Juve, or Barcelona, and their respective squad superiority.

 

[ringwaldhaze]

Three clubs? There's Manchester United and Chelsea. That's it.

Two clubs. Two. Zwei. Deux. Twee. Dos.

There's that other team from Manchester. The one who, I think, most people would say has a better squad than Utd and has, at the very least, just as competent a manager this time round.

 

[Lambda Pie]

not "just as competent", but a flat out better manager.

Two-sided triangles.

 

[Arnie]

I'm saying if City wins I'm gonna change my acc name to El Idiota.

With a comment like that I'm going to refer to you as El Idiota regardless.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Seems like Karanka might be joining Mou again, Madrid terminated his contract today.

----------Aguero (Dzeko)---------------

Guys pls

 

[qindarka]

Thankfully I won't have to change my acc name because even if United should suck there's still Chelsea. City ain't gonna win, sorry.

You do know that City have finished ahead of Chelsea two seasons in a row.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Do you have an ass man at the moment? (I will accept Ivanovic/Hazard pics in response)

 

[Mr.Marston]

Bundesliga was a procession last year and its only going to get worse. Ligue 1 too to a certain extent.

La Liga is a two horse race every single year.

Even Serie A isn't exempt, is anyone really gonna topple Juventus this season?

Meanwhile change is afoot in Englad and a bunch of teams have a shot at winning the Prem this season.

Spoiler

Except Arsenal ofc.

 

[bjaelke]

"I don't want to win the Europa League," said the Chelsea manager.
"It would be a big disappointment for me. I don't want my players to feel the Europa League is our competition."

Chelsea have the pressure of Mourinho on their shoulders. If he flops the club will be in turmoil.

[Feorax]

Quite possibly the worst "itk" that's ever existed. You could probably point to any transfer in this window and Indy would have said something else was supposed to happen.
