Wait, make that 2 hours. My math has been terrible lately.

Mourinho: "Pepe's position is easy to analyse. His problem is called Varane."
LOOL!
Jonjo's goal against United
Eriksen was just mentioned as a possible Götze replacement and Eriksen responded to the rumour by saying "I'll go if they actually want me".
Dortmund have asked about Cornelius through Flemming Povlsen (former Dortmund striker), so they're clearly monitoring him.

I love how every team is U21s except for Manchester City EDS - the team second to last in their group, not in the Elite tier, and getting stomped in the second phase as well. :lol
Shocking run of results in that competition this year.
They've done much better lately though, but IIRC some of the games have been cup games!
Suarez is balling though atm. 5 goals in 6 games.
475m. He could've bought United's debt and Conte's integrity with it.

Just brilliant.
EDS is probably the stupidest thing to come out of City's takeover. It's like, QPR and Blackburn levels of ridiculous.

Our GD is fucking amazing. It makes our actual PL GD look rather pathetic (which it is).
To be fair, the likelihood of youth team players coming good for the first team doesn't really hinge on the U21 team's results, where the primary motive is nurturing talent, not winning games.
We're in the final stages now here, anyway. Tottenham will face the winner of Newcastle v Everton, and then the winner there will face either Man Utd or Liverpool for the final.
Look at this charming little stud. My favorite LFC transfer since Torres.
We've got some really promising youngsters. Suso, Sterling and Wisdom made the step up this year and worked really hard in the first team. I fully expect them to still be in and around the first team next year, and would also imagine Coady, McLaughlin and Teixiera will make appearences next year.
Youth development seems to be a massive part of what we're about these days.
In the Dutch press word has it Dortmund wants Eriksen (all rumours obviously). Nothing about Fischer though. Not that any club would even make a chance to buy Fischer by the way
McLaughlin is the one I've got my hopes pinned on. Don't know why, just seems to have that special something, kind of like Sterling.
Not that I don't think the other players have a future, but I get excited watching McLaughlin play. Quick and agile right back, great technique, good head on his shoulders. Proper attacking fullbacks like Dani Alves and Philip Lahm are exciting to watch.
In terms of clothing, no, in terms of design, yes.
Where'd you read this?

Pretty sure this guy doesn't have a great reputation around here but some interesting Mourinho related tweets anyway:
Come home Jose!!
Edit also:
Come home Jose!!
Edit also:
Based on his performances this year since about Feb, I could see us cashing in on Johnson in the summer, buying a younger, more attacking right back, and then using McLaughlin as backup.
Wisdom should really be a centreback like Kelly. Complement each other quite well.
Apparently it was mentioned on Talksport earlier today.

That's only first phase of the competition
Phase 2:
The Elite Development Squad did not make it to the Elite Group
I'm still wondering why Babel failed at Liverpool? Can someone fill me in on that?
And I think Eriksen's main desire is at least CL football. Our players are getting used to it these days. That was different round the time Suarez left us for you guys.
Thank you.

Don't forget this one:

Hard to say. He was quick and always put ina shift, but was prone to the more than occasional brain-fart. Kenny obviously has a plan when he came in and Babel wasnt part of it.
I'm sure the Howard Webb photoshop incident didn't help...
I personally think we let him go too early. We lost a couple of good players around that time we tried to shift the deadwood. Insua was another I don't get why we let go.
So the main reason was a new coach that had no intent of using Babel? Well I'm glad he some how made his way back to us. Too bad he was injured a lot this season. But the games he played he really made an impression.
I'm anxious to know where he will go now. He had planned to shine this season for a bigger club to pick him up but since he was injured quite a while I wonder if the clubs will be lining up for him.

Mourinho killed Pepe at the press conference, replying to his comments about Casillas. He said Pepe's problem was called Varane. Lol
To be fair, I don't think it was just Kenny. That was also FSG's first transfer window and they were obviously looking for ways to raise funds to start the rebuild. At the time Babel was being sold, FSG probably had no idea what was going to transpire on deadline day that January.
Babel also really didn't like Comolli, so he probably had a hand in it too.

He's not leaving this year unless we get an inane bid on.
You really think he's gonna stay another year? Wouldn't it make sense for a Dane to make a move to a midtable club in a big league or a top club over here? Or could he make a direct transfer to a topclub next year?

He just started playing for us this year. And he got champions League group Stage in front of him, something that could get his reputation up much higher than today if he does well. But even more importantly : we signed a new contract with him and we won't sell him ahead of Champions League unless the bid is as I said insane.
Those mou quotes are pretty spot on. Even as a barca supporter I agree with his statement - after that embarrassing loss Barca should use it as an incentive to work on themselves big time this summer.
Regarding Casillas, the comments are too harsh in my opinion. God knows what happened between them. Actually, anyone know what actually happened?
You're most welcome Linius
Keep the faith bro, you never know. Especially with so many teams facing a potential relegation. I don't get how Newcastle have not been doing good for the past couple of months. I remember them bettering Chelsea 3-2 and I thought they were off to a good run since, but it seems like Chelsea's game was the peak!
Agreed. He was in the UAE yesterday and apparently he was over 2 hours late for his concert. His show was also on a weekday here, most of his audience had to be in bed for school by the time his show started.
Yeah I was way off about him 0_o
LOL @ Abou Diaby hahahahaa
Salam! Welcome aboard bro
I'm going to defend Valencia here; the pitch was not in great condition. A lot of CFC and MUFC players slipped that day.

It's honestly looking like relegation to me.
It's okay though because I'll have PS4 to use for escapism.
