Nainggolan: "I don't know if you could call them small aids / favours, but what is certain is that they always go one way. That's just how it is."

Like, okay, it's nothing we haven't heard before. It's the usual "I'm not saying the refs are deliberately helping Juventus, but SOMEHOW most of these mistakes always end up in their favour." That's pretty much what every anti-Juventino thinks, even though there isn't a single fucking shred of statistical evidence to support it. Just as there wasn't when Farsopoli was all the rage. But sure, repeat a lie a thousand times & amplify it with the help of the all-powerful Milan- and Rome-centric media, and it becomes a truth.

But for a Roma player (or fat Napoli manager) to say or 'cleverly suggest' it RIGHT NOW, when every fucking independent corrected-for-ref-errors league table (I know, they're worthless, but they can still give you a very general idea) looks more or less like this ...

... to say it after Roma have received blatant help from the refs in like 5 out of the last 6 matches ... it takes a truly mentally challenged person to even THINK it, let alone come out and SAY IT.

I've got a thick skin, as pretty much every true Juventino, but seeing stuff like this and seeing it getting ignored by the media ... is just fucking sad.

Hahaha Zazoooooo <3 who cares man? Hell, it's even fucking better if we're actually blatantly match fixing our way to a fourth title. DRINK IT CUNTS

RESISTANCE IS FUTILE

Is this how it feels to be the supreme ruler of North Korea?
 
If I could tie you to a chair and make you listen to the first minute of Pink Floyd's Time over and over again, I would fucking do it.

:lol



Bit worried about Gerrard tomorrow if he starts. Probably his biggest chance of winning a trophy before he leaves,against the team that denied him a PL medal (with a helping banana skin from himself)

And I want Henderson and Lucas in the middle, at any cost. Its a perfect storm for Gerrard to play like an idiot, as he did when we were a goal down to Chelsea, and a goal down to Uruguay. He hasn't got it in him anymore to play that single-mindedly without being a detriment to the team.
 
Kroos? Lol.
Now he's playing in Spain be suddenly becomes a contender for best in the world? Hilarious.

That's not at all what he said. Sometimes I think Cruyff talks nonsense, but his points on Kroos have nothing to do with the fact that he plays in Spain now. Ronaldo was always going to win the Ballon D'or but I don't even think he's the best/most influential player at Madrid.

Nice. Didn't realize these matches were this week.

Yay for midweek entertainment.

Official figures show that 377 people die everyday from road accidents in India and unlike other countries the count is increasing.

We have no official safety norms. Almost all cars fail international safety testing.

That's fucking horrid. What else contributes to this? Do drivers require licenses or insurance?

In the end, I really don't. And I actually enjoy it every time something goes our way, especially in these, supposedly super clean and legit post-Farsopoli times we live in, because I like seeing all the little worms squirming and putting their little heads together, trying to come up with new theories on how Juve cheat and steal. It just baffles me how most media outlets use two different sets of weights when it comes to measuring this stuff. They'll talk all week long about that supposed offside in Napoli - Juve, but barely mention in passing Roma's daylight robbery in Palermo. Eh, whatever. Mia san mia.

It is required but not everybody has them.

Not everybody wears helmets and we have a huge 2 wheeler population. Cycles are not required to carry any LED or identification lights in the night.

People don't follow rules. Lane driving is non existent. People go on the wrong side all the time to avoid a U turn or traffic. People in most cities (except Delhi, Bombay) don't follow traffic lights unless a traffic policeman is actually stopping traffic.

At a roundabout, people don't go around a circle. They just cut through inside the circle.

Overall, people are impatient. Indians are very impatient. They are always in a hurry. Educated, well educated people do these things. They don't want to wait.

Hell, only in last 2-3 years have SOME people started slowing down and giving way to ambulances and emergency vehicles. And even now, people honk at our cars when we are giving the emergency vehicle space.

Do Arsenal have room in their recalibrated midfield for Mesut Ozil ? By Barney Ronay

Wenger is right to be patient with a gossamer talent. But for how long? What Özil has done well is manage Arsenal’s transitions from defence to attack, but Sánchez has this sewn up now. Similarly, nobody at Arsenal can pass quite like Özil when the waters are calm and the wind at his back. But Cazorla has been a revelation in the centre of late, a ferret with a touch of artistry, while Rosicky, Wilshere, Walcott, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Ramsey, and even Serge Gnabry, Danny Welbeck and Joel Campbell represents an overload of attacking bustle for the other two spots in that four-man attacking midfield.

Brazil and Uruguay got worse rates per 100.000. While India certainly are high up, the number looks even crazier due to there living about 2000 billion people in India or there about. I'm not good with numbers.

18 year old Danilo Pantic from Partizan has signed for Chelsea...


and has publicly said he's excited to play for Vitesse.

:lol. Incredible. Thank god we won against them. Vitesse is starting to get really annoying. They are probably the side that are playing the best football in the Eredivisie, but they are too shit in finishing chances so they are in the midtable.

I mean, I don't think it's that much of a dilemma yet. We don't have the most difficult schedule for a stretch of a few games so we can afford to experiment a little with subs and lineups. And of course, injuries.

Definitely need to see what a 4231 with giroud, walcott, ozil and Sanchez looks like though. It's the ideal, assuming everyone is in decent form.

No room for Welbz?

Read the article and agree for the most part. However one thing I strongly disagree with is the 4 1 4 1 system being rigid.

Do you know what Arsne has to make a choice its quite that simple. Ozil or Carzola just please dont do Ozil the disservice of playing him out wide (or Carzola). Pick one and run with it.

I honestly dont know what I'd do (infact I do, I'd pick Ozil and ask Ramsey to pick up his defence slack pls lol) because I dont know whats more worth it. Ozil's creative guile or Carzola being a lot more complete and willing to buy into the ethos of defending as a team.

I've jerked in front of other guys while we all watch porn together but that's it.

That's something I've never understood. I mean I wouldn't mind since I'm not straight, but I don't understand how a bunch of straight guys would decide to do that.
