Self-inflicted. Career-bottler.

It's third party ownership, man.

Modern day slavery.

[subtles]

Poor Xabi. The Barcelona hate and under-appreciation is strong. The poor lad didn't have La Masia.....Survived the financial corruption of Spanish football only to join the problem....The Legend.


Neymar is only the beginning, people are already asking "What happened to La Masia?".

 

[Salvadora]

Anyone familiar with Gilbert Imbula? He's a 20 year old Belgian/French DM.

Could be Arsenal's next signing.

 

[DominoKid]

Our signings this summer are gonna be Strootman, Zaha and Varela.

I can't wank to that.

nah we're gonna do better than that. believe.

Why in God's name is Wenger wasting his time with these signings? The best chance to get a bloody good jump start on most teams thanks to stability and he's fannying around.

 

[WAR recon zero]

have they showed the new Arsenal shirt?

 

[KidA Seven]

Varela, Zaha, Isco, and Thiago. Done.

Spoiler

Yeah right.

Edit: Am I pulling a DC?

Because Imbula will cost £8m(?) now and sell for multiples of that.

Why are you not thinking of the ROI?

have they showed the new Arsenal shirt?

Nope.

The switch the Puma has maybe set things back a bit, I think. Could be glorious.

 

[Timurid]

Fucking LOL

Gonalons over all those other midfielders.

Imbula helped Guingamp get promoted last season. I heard he was pretty good in Ligue 2, but you never know he can be your Varane.

 

[Koko]

Fucking LOL

Gonalons over all those other midfielders.

Like if you actually saw him play.

 

[Timurid]

Like if you actually saw him play.

If he was that good why isn't he starting in the national team?

Matuidi is one of the best DMs in Europe.

 

[Lambda Pie]

Europe top 50 compiled by Bloomberg based on a number of performance stats. There was scores and shit but I got rid for sake of easy reading. Can't be fucked to find the link.

where the fuck is Cardozo? he did more than half that list.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Sometimes it seems like people wank themselves silly over Porto's players, while Benfica's are forgotten about, especially Cardozo.

Ribery is 3rd! and you all laughed when I said he was third best in the world.

Still do, and always will.

 

[Fry]

That list is a joke.

Ribery having a better season than Iniesta and cementing his status as 3rd best in the world is not.

Treble winner baby!

 

[The_Hitcher89]

I hope teams attack Bayern more next season. As brilliant as their defensive record was, you only get stats like those when your opposition is scared to try.

They definitely will. Nobody is afraid of Valdes.

[Zabojnik]

I didn't know some of you guys liked Dream Theater, I was actually listening to Never Enough when I was registering for GAF, the bit "All those sleepless nights" that's where I got my username from!

I like Octavarium quite a bit but never actually ever listened to all of their stuff.

I've only listened to These Walls, Panic Attack and Never Enough. All great songs!

You guys have no fucking idea what you're missing. Excluding Octavarium, which is a indeed a great song, the other mentioned above aren't even in their top 30. I like everything from them, but do youself a fucking favour and at the very least listen to the following two albums:

Images and Words
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPYPm4ny9UM
One of their first and best albums. James LaBrie's vocal range was fucking unreal back then. The highlights are ... well, all the songs. Learning to Live is a one of their many prog masterpieces and one of my favourite pieces of music.

Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From a Memory
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuktLbmsStY
Simply one of the best concept albums of all times.

As for single songs ...

The Count Of Tuscany (Black Clouds And Silver Linings album)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4yzYKIiV9Y

Voices (Awake album)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvEOsdH8T_8

A Change Of Seasons
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgKHimdfNrY

Breaking All Illusions (A Dramatic Turn Of Events)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhQKol7PFzA

... there's just so much amazing stuff from them. No idea how you could've ignored this band for so long, if you're into heavier (but still very melodic) stuff. John Petrucci is one of the greatest guitarists and composers of forever. It's progressive metal, so it obviously takes a bit of time to get into, but once it clicks ... Shivers, just constant shivers.

Christ, I can't believe I was listening to Kanye earlier.

 

[Lunchbox]

Falcao being trapped in Ligue 1 is a crime against football.

GOD!

Shit, that´s amazing. I hope the album leaks soon.

 

[KidA Seven]

Probably my favorite The National song.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCR0Tr2HTfA

 

[KidA Seven]

New Slaves still sounds like shit. The other song sounds good though.

 

[FootballFan]

Was Messi banned or something? lol

Nah the GOAT football player Messi is being accused of tax evasion and could face prison time. It's obviously not real though. They always want to put him down but he comes back stronger and stronger.

Both are cunts in the pitch tbh!

 

[Zabojnik]

Both are cunts in the pitch tbh!

No. And I'm starting to seriously detest people saying that about players who are very energetic, go for the hard tackle, etc. How the fuck is Vidal a cunt?

 

[Meier]

Ribery is one of the ugliest people I've ever seen but he had a helluva year and is an absolute terror on the pitch (and not just because of his face). He's comfortably top 10 at worst.

My hometown club Orlando City beat their second consecutive MLS team in the equivalent of the FA Cup in the US. Another MLS team on tap next (either the Chicago Fire or Columbus Crew).

 

[KidA Seven]

No. And I'm starting to seriously detest people saying that about players who are very energetic, go for the hard tackle, etc. How the fuck is Vidal a cunt?

It was probably because of this hard tackle.

Which is completely out of character for him. I've been watching him for two years, I should know.

 

[FootballFan]

Taxpoli da Messi.

 

[Fry]

No. And I'm starting to seriously detest people saying that about players who are very energetic, go for the hard tackle, etc. How the fuck is Vidal a cunt?

He was a cunt against Bayern, and since I don't watch Juventus in other matches, he'll stay a cunt in my vision.

 

[Timurid]

Sometimes you have to become one to beat one.

Also the same people who broke the story about Falcao to Monaco are saying that Hiddink will be the next coach for PSG.

Woot pretty football!!!

 

[Salazar]

Monaco gonna take Cabaye, hopefully.

 

[GorillaJu]

Infamous Second Son is making me hard.

 

[Meier]

Ajax's DoF says Chelsea have outbid them for van Ginkel. Apparently a decision won't be made until after the U-21s are done.

 

[FootballFan]

Looks so damn good. The gameplay video that's out is awesome. Wish it was a launch title.

 

[Linius]

He's just gonna warm their bench. In lights of Brasil 2014 it wouldn't be a smart decision for him but money rules these days.

 

[sohois]

They'll probably just loan him out immediately and sell him on in a few years

Galliani: "Matri grew up in youth sector, and that's why we would like to bring him back to Milan."

if we sign this bidone and sell el shaarawy, and i mysteriously stop posting, it's probably because i killed myself

:lol if that happens I will laugh my ass off.

 

[qindarka]

He's just gonna warm their bench. In lights of Brasil 2014 it wouldn't be a smart decision for him but money rules these days.

Do you think he is currently good enough to play a reasonably large part in the Chelsea side, bearing in mind that centre midfield is where Chelsea are weakest.

 

[Zabojnik]

I wouldn't say Matri is a bidone, but I also wouldn't be opposed to him moving to Milan. This Allegri confirmation is working out great for us. <3

Probably won't happen though. I have 0 faith in Marotta at this point.

 

[Lightning]

Probably won't happen though. I have 0 faith in Marotta at this point.

Thats probably the level of my confidence in signing anyone that can actually help us next season
