Real Madrid to rename stadium Abu Dhabi Santiago Bernabeu.

I'm very OK with this. I've been looking at some champions league tickets, out of the roof.

Simeone: “Messi by himself is more dangerous than Cristiano Ronaldo, Bale and Benzeman together.”

Fits well with being Barça's bitch (note: Real is Atléti's bitch by the same note).

I'm sorry to say again but Moyseh > Simeone.

If ps4 had live video chat I could have been talking to and seeing long Johnson live. Made sure he's safe.

But Sony doesn't care about our safety

Done deal.

eur: +150

Short safe moist as dude came along with his girlfriend, she was already awww'ing at my dog and eyeing me tbh and thinking how much better it would be if she could just stay. Tough luck, honey. You get the Golf van driving short boyfriend who drives 200km to pick up a toy steering wheel. And I get to be all by myself with FootyGAF and eur 150 richer

Ruben Neves had a promising start earlier in the season, seriously he was great, so mature and only 17. Didn't get his mojo completely back after a minor injury though. Still, for 29 million pounds I say bring it. And I can still cheer for him in Liverpool.

Porto have good youngsters this season. Keep an eye on Gonçalo Paciência as well (20). Son of Domingos. Scored one today.

If ps4 had video chat we could be discussing it right now and i would have seen the trade happen. And seen her

That is true. I should've set up a hidden camera to have footage at least. Fail.

nice. you are from Portugal, right?

I think Stindl is a free agent in the summer, IIRC.
Bittencourt is good. He should move back to Dortmund

I just love that the UAE government feel they need to plaster the name of the city where this investment group is headquartered on the side of the one of the most recognizable stadiums in the world just because the opportunity has presented itself and they can.

Seriously, what benefit to their country or business interests does this naming rights deal offer them? Nothing. It's just another way to spend money and make notable people bend over. I love it.

Crazy to think Dortmund are still bottom of the Bundesliga.
scum do you write these or do you grab them from somewhere

bbc sport website.Worth remembering that the Times, Guardian, and Telegraph are the only papers that are in any way decent wrt to football journalism and transfer rumours.

wait. are you the one who moved to Finland because of his girlfriend, or was another user in the same situation of moving to Finland from Portugal?

Yeah that's me. I just came home for christmas and stayed a bit longer.

...hate me...
ah, you're jts :lol
Do you like Finland so far?
I like it, I always enjoy meeting new cultures and seeing new places.

It is a civilised, organised and much more pragmatic place than Portugal. That's mostly good, to the point it gets a bit boring though.

However I am seriously located in the neck of the woods there. Looks like those small american towns you see in american movies, with local high school drama, lots of forest around etc. It gets boring.

The weather got me shook. -10cº is child's play there. I didn't experience -30 because I was not there this month. You have to go from point A to point B and STAY THERE. Or else. So that also gets boring.

The language is tough as nails to learn. No connection with any language I have the smallest grasp of. But most people speak english with no problems.

They have a nice social situation and the salaries are good (much better than in Portugal) - except I haven't found a job yet. Haven't looked too much though. Now it will be the time.

But I will be looking to move to a bigger city as well. Tampere or even Helsinki. Better prospects for a job, not as boring, and more connected.

Yeah, moving to a big city should help a lot in all the downsides you have found so far.
is life much more expensive than in Portugal?

A bit. I dunno if LIDL's prices are a correct measure of purchase parity but for example some products that cost -.59 in Portugal's LIDL, cost like -.79 in Finland's LIDL.

I think it's easily 30-40% more expensive. It won't hurt much if you stick with the basics. It's when you want to go out, eat out, buy nice clothes or whatever futile thing you want to do or buy, that you really start feeling the difference.

Fucking Wii remotes costing 70 eur :lol :lol
