What a shitty thing to do lol.
Is TheLucifer(ironically) the only good thing that has anything to do with Milan? :lol
A very interesting interview with Conte:
YOU HEAR THAT MAROTTA?
I'm pretty sure (or at least I hope) that most of our flops were Marotta signings.
Antonio Conte is already thinking about the Juventus of tomorrow, while he admits that he was contacted by the Old Lady in 2009.
In a revealing interview with the Gazzetta dello Sport, the tactician touched on a number of subjects just days after winning his second consecutive League championship.
My wife has told me to at least enjoy this Scudetto for a couple of days, but I cant, he admitted.
Im also a character who doesnt really show his feelings, but that is not to say that Im not experiencing them.
Both Scudetti were beautiful and complicated, he continued.
The first was unexpected, we were not favourites and perhaps not even considered. We beat a battleship like Milan and to remain unbeaten all season was a masterpiece.
To confirm yourselves as champions is never easy, as the others are waiting for you and we also had the Champions League to navigate.
After conquering Italy, Conte has made it very clear that he now wants to be put into a position to challenge for the Champions League.
It makes me laugh when I hear certain things, like when people say that Juventus need just two players to win the Champions League. Thats a superficial and presumptuous argument.The reality is different the top is some distance away as the UEFA rankings demonstrate. Its not just an economical issue either. Certainly money helps, but that is not enough.Bayern Munich is a model to follow. A serious project which started years ago with Van Gaal, that has included burning losses that enhanced the ferocity of their players.
At the base of all success is organisation of play, a club who are prepared to go down a precise path with targeted investments and an eye on the youth system. Thats the only way you can change.
Conte is now set for talks with Juve officials to see whether they share the same view in what lies ahead, especially in terms of transfer targets.
Will I stay? The players and the club deserve respect. Ill speak about these things with the President and with director general Marotta.
Who do I want between Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Luis Suarez and Gonzalo Higuain? You cant say no to those three. Ill take all of them, but that wont be enough to win the Champions League, he smiled.
Conte joined the Old Lady in 2011, but he was contacted by the previous management about becoming the Coach.
I met with sporting director Alessio Secco and I tried to explain how I would have intended to re-launch Juventus.
Playing an offensive game, but with ball possession starting from the defence. And then having two wide attackers to surprise our opponents. I indicated players as models: Robben, Lennon and Walcott.
Diego? He asked for my opinion on him. I said, with frankness, that he was a good player but with Trezeguet, Del Piero, Amauri and Iaquinta in the squad, that 25m could be spent in another manner.
You all know what happened. If a Coach has a specific way that he plays then he cant be left out when technical decisions are made.
Juventus finished seventh in 2009-10 and 2010-11.
YOU HEAR THAT MAROTTA?
I'm pretty sure (or at least I hope) that most of our flops were Marotta signings.
ZahALLAH pls
He needs to touch the magic ball from Space Jam, srsly
Bla, or Dmitri, or "soon-fuckyeahMüller-as-username-on-GAF", are you drunk ?
I once heard it is forbidden up there to give your kid the name of an animal ?
I'm 100% sober!
Arnie, I thought we went over this. He's NOT the same Conte in FM.
I think what he's trying to say is: Money isn't enough, you need a serious 'project' from top to bottom like Bayern.
This man just gets it. His 4-2-4 at Bari was a sight to behold, btw. Fuck strikers, I want me some world-class wingers.
MARRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
Don't get too excited. He's leaving to PSG, because money IS everything. /Tancredi
You're joking, but I'm pretty sure he'll leave. Not this summer, probably not the next, but after that ...

Di Maria!!!!!!
Why is Dos Santos still at Barca. Fuck. Why does Keirrison still belong to Barca. Sell them!!
I get frustrated thinking just about those 2, imagine Arsenal fans who have like 8 players they forget are even in their squad lol. I'd go nuts.
I fucking wish. Di Maria and Cuadrado would be my dream signings. Alas ...

Sanchez would be great too but as I said earlier, he is young and has shown good things at times, he will get another chance next season.
Llorente, Cuadrado, Di Maria and another random for your least covered position.
Dortmund is after Eriksen too. Are they beginning their own Danish super team now?

So, I was playing FIFA 13 online on UCK_MY_ICK account the other day and now I can't sign into EA. Did someone report me or is it a glitch? I already tried deleting and reinstalling the game data + save data but still received the same message.
I'm going to try redownloading the online pass, if that fails. UckMyIck goes into retirement before even making his debut for BelieveFC(ps3).

There were around 70 different clubs at the match two days ago (Brøndby - FCK). I don't think Cornelius did anything particular in that match to attract the Attention of Dortmund or any other club. On the other hand, he's the top scorer in the league and has a very promising career ahead of him.
He'll most likely leave this Summer if he can move to a club participating in next year's Champions League.
I still hope he ends up at Stoke but that's because I'm a selfish and evil person.

probably a problem on EA's part. I got this once, too
Nah, no one in their right mind would go to Stoke if they have so many better clubs interested in them. I'll make sure Fischer gives him a call.

We should start doing the same for Villa.

What's your PSN? I'll be free in an hour.
I heard of their interest for Fischer but not Eriksen.
I see, so it's just paper-selling news. Dortmund is just another club in the line. Arguably, their new financial strength gives them more credibility when they go hunting but that doesn't seal the deal in itself.
Go red wings........ Or is that a different sport?

I'm more along the lines of... go [whoever Miami are playing]! A mostly fruitless endeavor, but still.
