Brenton on Coutinho: "Nothing to report. There's been talks between the club's but that's about it."
Heh.
Heh.
City are going to buy Cavani, aren't they?
In the summer, obviously.
He was spot on about yesterday, too. A few players were far too soft and need to toughen up, couple of youngsters coasting in the belief that they're superstars, and if they don't learn to put in the effort, and learn from role models like Gerrard then they may find themselves playing in League One.

Science Quiz: analyse and interpret this string of numbers:

If your answer had something to do with DNA or calculus, can I suggest another website for you to browse? In fact, these are Leo Messis scoring numbers in the last 16 matches he has played. Mind you, not the last 16 matches in which he happened to score, but the last 16, period. 16 matches. 27 goals. It doesnt take a science degree to appreciate this incredible achievement.

Messi is just godly.

The number of people jumping on the Barca bandwagon every week?
I don't think the team will do it unless Napoli soften their stance on release-clause only. I have a feeling that Txiki and Ferran will start moving towards more undervalued Spaniards.. FFP will definitely come into play.

I can't get excited by this Leroy Fer guy yet. I need to wait a few days and see if this transfer was funded by Fellaini leaving.
I don't know about the other two, but Conte allegedly yelled "vergogna" (shameful) at the ref. I think Stramaccioni got a one match ban for more or less the same. Of course, in his case, the ref didn't admit that his goal-line assistent signaled the penalty but that he (the ref) "didn't feel like conceeding a penalty in the last minute of extra time". Which is just outrageous and higly suspicius given that the ref is a Napoli fan (by his own admission).
But, yeah, rightful ban and Juve always cheats. *wink*
De Laurentiis, who's quite rich, runs an extremely tight ship. They have a relatively low salary cap, rarely spend more than 10-15M€ in transfer money on a single player and their fanbase is pretty big. It's not like they're doing anything crazy. They got 'lucky' with a few transfers (Hamsik, Cavani, Lavezzi before he left), have a solid squad and a capable, if detestable, coach. Walter Mazzarri, the inventor of the 3-5-2.
They're 3 points behind January's Juve, which isn't the real Juve at all. So, yeah, we'll see how that goes for them.
Wow, That´s a huge hyperbole. Messi is really good, I admit it. But sadly for him Torres born in the same era, if not Messi would be one of the greatest players in football history.
Lio, maybe in your next reincarnation, sorry
I don't think a club like City with the expectation to challenge and win consistently will follow the undervalued Spaniard model. Unless you're including the likes of Isco (which I hope you aren't) in that, young Spaniards aren't going to bring you the joy City now demand.
Cavani, on the other hand, almost guarantees silverware with the personnel behind it. I think you'll buy Isco and Cavani, spend a fucking fortune, and win the league.
Funnily enough I couldn't get excited about Suarez because Torres had just left; then I watched him score on his debut versus Stoke and all that melted away. Now I love him, kind of, in a 'you're great whilst you're here' kind of way.

what's better than beating your biggest enemy 3:2? beating your biggest enemy 3:2 with 2 irregular goals (2:1 was hands and 3:1 was offside)

I think this comment spies a larger problem with Liverpool:
"It is not enough to play for Liverpool and get up for the Arsenal and Manchester City games (later this week) because if we are going to win trophies you need to be able to come to places like Oldham and win and we weren't good enough for that."
I've felt for a number of years now that Liverpool have only really turned it on in the big games (notwithstanding games against Norwich
). Seems a strange mentality problem they've got.buy them in the summer?
Good article on the Conte business here, Juve bros - http://m.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2013/jan/28/juventus-cry-shame-genoa-draw

I'm glad Rafael isn't in the Brazzzhilll squad. He's played lots this season. He can have a rest.
He'll be the starting RB at the 2014 WC anyways.

Surely he'll stay until June right?

You think Rafael will oust Alves next year for the RB spot? I don't see it.
Vivalaraza

Nah I was kidding.
But I think he will nail that spot down eventually. Probably not for the World Cup though, too soon. He needs to prove himself more consistently and then for Brazil obv.
Alves is far too good. How old is he anyways?
It's been the opposite this season, though.I think this comment spies a larger problem with Liverpool:
"It is not enough to play for Liverpool and get up for the Arsenal and Manchester City games (later this week) because if we are going to win trophies you need to be able to come to places like Oldham and win and we weren't good enough for that."

It's not just Norwich, we've dominated the likes of Wigan, Sunderland, Newcastle, Southampton, Reading, and QPR, but failed to capitalise in the bigger games. We should've taken points against United and City, given our performances, but bottled it, and were fortunate to leave Stamford Bridge with a point. Then against the likes of Arsenal and Spurs we crumbled too, looking extremely fragile against real quality.
That's why a win against Arsenal would mean so much, because as a club we feel incapable of taking the big, important scalps at the moment, whereas previously we had some degree of confidence in those games.
Of course.
You ain't doing any business in this window, outside of shipping Balotelli to Milan.

hyperbole from the media again
It's only natural Rio would laud his teammate.. I don't have a problem with his statement even though it has not been true (even though Rafael has had an excellent season by every measure). Brazil's struggles recently have definitely been due to their porous defense.. they'd be wise to try and get Rafael some international experience as soon as possible.
Attack wise, it's hard to top them right now. I'd say only Argentina has a better attack force as far as individual talent is concerned.

That's true, results against the top teams have not gone your way. I do think the Liverpool tend to look more impressive in the bigger games though (however you might want to define 'more impressive').
29, 30 in May.
Oh you.
Our worst league performances this season have come against Arsenal, United, and Villa. But at least at Anfield I'd say we played exceptionally against United and City, despite understandably playing our 'best' football against the likes of Norwich and Sunderland.
if there isn't much to report, just make shit up. worked great for german media in the past
yeah. the first one they wanted to make an interview with on sunday was mario gomez... because he was on the bench for 87 minutes lol. fucking german media.

Just make Alves the right winger and Rafa the RB. Problem solved.
Well, at least Camp Nou is right down your street. You Spaniard, you.

Holtby confirmed.
Yeah, the ticket prices here in Spain are just ridiculous, we have the largest unemployment rate of Europe, but still you have to pay much more than in any other european country.
Makes no sense. Actually, all what happen in this fucking country makes no sense. Fuck you Spain.
btw, Messi, are you spaniard? Didn´t know that.
