So they're doing alright in the fast car procession?

 

[Wes]

A bit late but Eurosport will be showing both games on Friday and the final on Monday.

Cool. Thanks for info.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

France 0 - 2 Spain

 

[Yurt]

:lol

 

[Vivalaraza]

Adnan is amazing.

I asked him why he was so amazing on twitter but be didnt reply.

Understandable - keep the formula a secret.

 

[Freewheelin']

Can't wait for Sagna to leave and this Bellerin kid joins the first team

 

[Gareth Bale]

Bad idea. He'll start to wonder why he's not getting games and then leave.

 

[TheLucifer]

As long as we don't see Maggio ever again.

I'm still amazed by Prandelli's brilliant decision of leaving Abate on the bench and having Maggio on the pitch during the Euros.

 

[Ushojax]

Bale is going nowhere people:

Tottenham Hotspur star Gareth Bale has agreed to act as a guest pundit for BT Sport's football coverage next season.

The Wales international, who has been heavily linked with a move away from the Premier League, will also feature in TV adverts promoting the new BT channels.

"A great deal has changed in my football career since my first partnership with BT, and I am happy to extend that relationship for the next three years," said Bale. "I am excited about the launch of BT Sport and I am happy to play my part in making it a big hit."

Head of BT Sport Simon Green added: "We are delighted that we've managed to do what dozens of top football managers would like to do - sign Gareth Bale."

Holy fuck, the Qatar keeper was knocked out

Cavani on Suarez

Suarez would love to play in the CL with LFC but, if he can’t, a player of his quality needs to play for a club where he can.

It meant a lot when LFC stood by him through some tough times & he has a lot of love for the club and their fans.

When I speak with Luis, he speaks with admiration about LFC & encourages me to play in England, but not for Chelsea!

Txiki will not let us down. Not like #BasedMarwood did.

Why isn't Son playing?

NotBigSam at it again:

notBigSam ‏@TheBig_Sam

Big Sam is genuinely delighted to hear that my dear old pal Phil Brown is back in work at Southend United.

notBigSam ‏@TheBig_Sam 7m

Only last week he sent me a video of himself choking a weasel with a Nintendo Power Glove, so this is a really timely boost for the lad.

Ajax playmaker Christian Eriksen will agree a switch to Tottenham this summer - as long as Spurs qualify for the Champions League.

The Danish attacking midfielder has been on Tottenham's radar for the best part of 18 months and his performances for the Dutch giants have also attracted interest from Liverpool, Arsenal and Inter Milan.

Eriksen has refused Ajax's attempts to extend his contract - which expires in 2014 - and believes he needs to move this summer to progress his career.

Spurs have made their interest clear to Eriksen on a number of occasions and their desire to sign the player, together with the lure of playing in London, is believed to have made Eriksen's mind up and a deal of £12m is set to be agreed.

However, the talented youngster is understood to have told his agent he only wants to move to a club in the Champions League and were Tottenham to fail to finish in the top four, Eriksen would look elsewhere.

Spurs are currently four points clear of fifth-placed Arsenal and the Gunners have a game in hand.

Is this guy actually good?

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

Is this guy actually good?

One of the biggest Danish talents and arguably one of the best playmakers in the Eredivisie at the moment.

 

[bjaelke]

Is this guy actually good?

He has a lot of potential in the right position but for some reason he's played out of position on the national team and you barely notice him. I think a change to the Spanish league would benefit him more than coming to the Premier League.

 

[3Sixty]

One of the biggest Danish talents and arguably one of the best playmakers in the Eredivisie at the moment.

So, undecided.

 

[Linius]

Is this guy actually good?

It's bullshit that he's desperate to leave. If the right club doesn't come by he will extend his contract.

And from the clubs that are interested I'd give Spurs the upper hand, unless suarez might convince him to come to Pool. Newcastle is out of the question.

And he's promising but he isn't show that every week. Ups and downs.

 

[Broder Salsa]

First time a "scout" have declared his/her presence through Twitter?

Lars Jacobsen wat. Who would even want him at the age he will be in when he's done at us? :/

 

[choodi]

Lol oh my, Australia are pathetic. They were losing 2 -0 to Oman at home in a WCQ. But it is now 2 - 1.

And the shithouse performances by Australia continue.

My God, whoever decided that Mile Jedinak was good enough to be paid to play football should be taken out the back and shot, twice!

Holman again papers over a garbage performance by coming up with a decent goal late in the game.

I also want to know which fucking genius decided that Holger Fucking Osieck was a good idea as manager? The starting 11 was not even close to being our best possible lineup and by the time he made the neccesary changes, it was too late. Why would you play with two holding midfielders (one of which was fucking Jedinak) when we are playing at home against supposedly inferior opposition in a game that is nigh on "must win"?

Fuck me!!!!!

As I said a few pages back, I can't remember the last time that we actually CREATED a goal from good passing and good positive play. Pretty much the only way we score is from set pieces or from broken play.

Our best passer of the ball is Bresciano and he was kept on the bench for most of the match. The he got injured and we looked like shit again. 95% of our passes go sideways and the ones that go forward are of such poor quality that it is actually more dangerous to us than to the opposition.

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

If we make it to Brazil, then you all should pray that your teams get us in the group stage as we will be an easy 3 points.

Fuck!

What's he done now?

Or are you just commenting on his general amazingness?

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

He scored twice last night in the Dallas cup.

 

[Nyx]

Oar was dog shit from what I saw.

That's why he gave an assist right? (for the gazillionth time)

Is this guy actually good?

Overrated.

 

[Bumhead]

Sky have decided to televise our final away game of the season away at Peterborough, what is probably going to be a relegation decider, and move it to 5:15.

F OFF SKYYYYYYYYYY

 

[choodi]

That's why he gave an assist right? (for the gazillionth time)

It was an assist in name only.

 

[arkon]

Meh screw the WC2014 qualifications, I'm more excited for next week.

Who isn't?

But we take what scraps we can in these dark times

 

[Clegg]

He scored twice last night in the Dallas cup.

Excellent.

On an unrelated note, I've just gotten Bioshock:Infinite. No Uni for me today!!

 

[Nyx]

It was an assist in name only.

He's so good, he gives assists in name only as well!

 

[KidA Seven]

Overrated.

Watch the game again. If you paid attention to Oar like I was, you would see he was messing up practically every time. Bad passing, bad decisions, etc... just awful.



Lee Chung Yong is beasting right now.

 

[Nyx]

Watch the game again. If you paid attention to Oar like I was, you would see he was messing up practically every time. Bad passing, bad decisions, etc... just awful.

I'm just kidding man, haven't even seen the game yet and only noticed his name under ''assists''.

On the other hand, Tommy Oar needs to be praised at all times, everywhere.
(so we can sell him for way too much)

 

[dc89]

Well I caved and bought Bioshock Infinite. I'm like 15 mins in and it's already oozing atmosphere that no other game has in quite a long time.

 

[choodi]

He's so good, he gives assists in name only as well!

Well, his contribution was a two yard, sideways pass to Holman on the left touchline, who then ran infield about 20 yards, rounded a defender and hammered a shot from outside the box.

If he claims that as an assist, then he should only do it with a wry smile.

Don't get me wrong, I like the kid, but his contribution was minimal due to the fact that he wasn't given a decent opportunity to play.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Bale is going nowhere people:

So he's staying in England.

United's next #11 confirmed.

Thanks for the review, saves me watching highlights later today!
I like him as well, his crosspass is such a good weapon. He only needs to learn to go inside as well instead of only going outside, it's too predictable for wingbacks.

 

[Carbonox]

Well I caved and bought Bioshock Infinite. I'm like 15 mins in and it's already oozing atmosphere that no other game has in quite a long time.

I'm currently going through Mass Effect 2 again but the temptation to buy Bioshock Infinite is so fucking strong, especially with the 4 day weekend coming up this week.

We really could have done with his pace and ability to get around his man. Our fullbacks were unable to beat their man once and when they did, their crosses were atrocious.

Tim Cahill was dominating their defenders whenever a decent cross was delivered. But sadly, that was very rare. Oar would have been able to create a fuckload more chances for us. Instead we persisted with players who have not been good enough for many years.

 

[The_Joker]

that's sick...japan can qualify for the world cup if they draw or win today... we have march 2013 and they would be qualified...is this the fastest qualitfication ever?

 

[Clegg]

Does the UK get the day off for Easter Monday too?

 

[Carbonox]

Does the UK get the day off for Easter Monday too?

Yeah.

 

[KidA Seven]

that's sick...japan can qualify for the world cup if they draw or win today... we have march 2013 and they would be qualified...is this the fastest qualitfication ever?

I think this will be their 3rd time to qualify first.

 

[choodi]

that's sick...japan can qualify for the world cup if they draw or win today... we have march 2013 and they would be qualified...is this the fastest qualitfication ever?

The worst part about that is Australia will be relying on Japan to win their remaining matches (except against us) to make it easier for us to qualify. If they lose their remaining games, that really screws us hard.

 

[dc89]

I'm currently going through Mass Effect 2 again but the temptation to buy Bioshock Infinite is so fucking strong, especially with the 4 day weekend coming up this week.

Wow. I'm just wandering round soaking it up. So much to see, listen to and find.

 

[KidA Seven]

:lol qatar scores

1-1

 

[Clegg]

Yeah.

Then buy the game if you want. Loads of tome to complete it now.

 

[Ryder]

Australian sport is in the doldrums

Tennis: Nothing since Hewitt
Football: Worse than Scotland
Cricket: Utterly defeated. No quality, no strength, no spirit
Olympics: lol

Doing alright for F1 though

Lol you forgot we are shithouse in Rugby Union as well.

We have been shithouse in international sports for years now.

The only sports we are good at are Aussie Rules and Rugby League sports no other countries play, lol.

Just so tired of shit football, we have no one coming through the youth ranks, we are for some dark times when Tim Cahill is your best player at age 30.

If we can't beat Oman at home imagine playing world powerhouse in Brazil, lol. Will be a raping if we qualify. We are so lucky we are in Asia. Can't believe they give out 4 world cup spots for the region, it's so shit besides Japan and Korea.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Does the UK get the day off for Easter Monday too?

4 day weekend bro. 2 united games as well. I'm fucking counting the hours.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Wow. I'm just wandering round soaking it up. So much to see, listen to and find.

Can easily spot pixels on textures. 2/10, would not play.

Spoiler

why is vsync locking you to 30 fps ugh, 30fps or head ache from screen tearing

 

[Vivalaraza]

4 day weekend bro. 2 united games as well. I'm fucking counting the hours.

Me too I've missed United alot.

I think we will put a beating on Sunderland but not so sure about the replay.
