Why is there a dragon on that Madrid kit? It seems so out of place. Or am I missing some historical thing Madrid has with dragons?

a black shirt with white details, representing the greatness and determination of the club with two mythical beasts from oriental culture on the torso. The event was attended by Emilio Butragueño, the club's Institutional Relations director; the kit's Japanese designer, Yohji Yamamoto

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
Dawson :(

Right time to go but it's still sad. Credit to him for refusing to be turfed out by AVB and fighting his way back into the team. Unfortunately that was never going to happen this time.

What are the rumours on Di Maria's new wages?

He'll be on around £200k a week according to earlier reports. I'd imagine that's the low end. RVP is on around £250k and Rooney is on £300k (after his image rights or whatever they did in the last renewal). Di Maria will definitely be in their vicinity.

Great, great signing.

Januzaj, Zaha, Kagawa, Wilson and Evans all start tonight.

Apart from when he nearly joined PSG of course.

That Madrid kit is fine. You guys complain too much. Reminds me of this console I could never get:

When I saw it posted this afternoon everyone was like "I'm gonna buy this kit", so I'm not sure if many people here actually complain about it.

That console is looks as shit as the Madrid kit by the way. Maybe I just have something against dragons :p

Absolutely delighted with the signing. Don't give a fuck about the price. Considering his quality, considering our need... it's worth it. We've taken the burden off Torres as well #heisback

We need a centre mid and a defender too. Vidal, De Jong, Vlaar. Anyone. Come.

Not to forget Di Maria's MOST important contribution in a Real Madrid shirt...the ZigZag of Lisboa

Even Pulga stands with us.... what an honour.

Yes

But we haven't even bid for Vidal or De Jong or even Blind

So. Fucked. Still. We. Are.

Congrats on the new toy United bros.

Very interested to see how you deploy your attack now.

Personally, I would like to see (if we make no more signings and assuming everyone is fit):

(4-3-1-2) De Gea; Rafael, two of Evans/Rojo/Jones, Shaw; Herrera, Carrick, Di Maria; Mata; two of Rooney/van Persie/Welbeck

We will more than likely see a 4-3-3 though; not much in it but it matters in terms of Mata and the strikers. Whether that means ADM and Rooney wide, I don't know.

Already afraid of Garcia working his magic to make him look better than he is.

Of that, I have no doubt. Which is also why I expect Benatia to turn to shit under CuntPep. As for the fear part ...

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

I really don't like Karl Robinson, the fat scouse rabbit, but can't not root for the underdog to maintain my lowerleagueface

First time Stadium:MK gonna be full but still gonna be silent the soulless fucking crater of a stadium

Cracking legroom though

Also a nightmare to leave after a match.

Desire
Is turning me to sin
 
she's used that as an excuse before yet won't keep away from me when we're in the same vicinity so she's just as much a pleb and is completely unsure how to proceed.

although i may have shot myself in the foot, it needed to be said as my commitment issues could hamper any attempt at making anything work. might sound like i am contradicting myself but while i have legit feelings, i'm hesitant to go the full monty for whatever bullshit personal reasons i have. i need to make sure i don't go HAM on her but i leave whatever is there on the table on an 'if' basis.

we do agree that our friendship is important and there are fears on both parts of the negative potential. for now i'm willing to keep things as they are and just enjoy our company when we are together and leave it at that for now and gauge how shit pans out. that desire for more will bubble but that's just the shit i'll have to live with unless i have the balls to offer a finality to it if you will.
eh. part of being a good couple is being great friends too. once you realize you can have both, things will be better.
