"Messi, subbed off yesterday, would be out for maximum 10 days, and would not yet been ruled out for the return game against PSG."

Great news since all rumors until now has been saying it's gonna be 3+weeks recovery time. Not so great news for Barca haters tho.

We had a bad day and we're clearly better than that.

y u guys hate bayern :(

It's fun to make fun of teenagers who are not aware of their worth and are anxious at never be crowned champions in any meaningful competition. Furthermore, it's even funnier when their angst push them to mediocrity, and reinforce in turn their frustration. You wouldn't want them to fail for the lulz ?

United have been scouting Porto matches again.

It's thought that our main targets could be James, Jackson Martinez or Eliaquim Mangala.

Yeah you are, apparently in the book it does a better job conveying the impact of him showing up.

He's the guy
At the end of last season who threw his sword down and left Jofferys kingdom; from wiki:

The hooded man pulls back his cloack and reveals his face. Dany doesn’t know him, but Jorah clearly recognizes him (and so do we, since they helpfully included his dismissal from the Kingsguard in the previouslies.) Mormont tells Dany that the man is Barristan Selmy, one of the greatest fighters in the Seven Kingdoms and also the Commander of the usurper Robert Baratheon’s Kingsguard.

Rodgers hate's hilarious.

The analogy about the aircraft is a perfect example. It makes complete sense, but because Rodgers said it, suddenly it's 'too much'. Jurgen Klopp makes an almost identical analogy in an interview with the BBC, and he's showered with praise for his personality.

It's easy to jump on the bandwagon, and I see a lot of you have. Hixx did have legitimate complaints last season when Rodgers made some ridiculous comments about Sunderland, but his hypocrisy glistened when he began fellating Di Canio for referring to himself in the third person.

A manager with personality is better than one without, for me. Manager's need personality. If Jurgen Klopp talks about playing with heart, it's a wonderful comment, because he manages Dortmund and GAF loves them. Rodgers talks about hope and suddenly he's a twat. Mostly because he manages Liverpool.

He was the Captain of the Kingsguard until Joffrey denounced him because he was "too old".

The Kingsguard is a sworn oath and a brotherhood like the Nights Watch. You don't just get "sacked. He had his honour absolutely shit on.
