The Beautiful Game (everything soccer)

[MasterAblar]

Hi everybody!! I love football (as good spanish) and I'm a big Real Madrid's supporter. In fact, I was in Glasgow when Real won the ninth Champions League against Bayer Leverkusen (with the awesome goal of Zinedine Zidane). I really think the next World Championship will be very interesting and I can't wait for the next summer to see it :)

 

I would literally give you 10 years of my life just to have gone to that match in your place.

Don't fancy giving bale back do you? If not we'll have modric!

Walcott is out for like 6 months and will miss the World Cup. This kind of stuff happens when you make players play 6 matches in 13 days. England and unfortunately Arsenal will suffer for it.

[Lilbaz]

At least he got £4.20 out of it.

 

Joking but was ashamed of the spurs fans for that. Few will have lost their season tickets and desevedly so. Talk about wasting money on a player, will we never learn?

Walcott will be at least 29 years old before playing a World Cup game, despite being on the England squad since he was 17.

[Lilbaz]

There are far better players that never played at a world cup.

Arsenal reclaim top spot, but give themselves a good scare, because hey got to have a little fun right. Cristiano Ronaldo win the ballon d'or, everyone disagrees (or not, whatever, pointless award at this point anyway). Nadine Angerer, deservedly, won the ballon d'or féminin. Not sure how the hell Wambach and Marta were finalists though. They didn't do much this year. Oh and Zlatan Ibrahimovic won the puskas award (best goal) for a certain scissor kick against albion from about a billion yards out, allowing the english goalkeepers to keep their rightfully earned "all the fails ever" trophy.

[Lilbaz]

All quiet on the transfer front. Ffp taking effect?

[Lilbaz]

Big trouble at Southampton. The chairman has resigned and the manager wants to follow.

[MasterAblar]

Damn... who'd have thought after that brilliant start of a season?

[Lilbaz]

Arguments with the owner who inherrited the club from her father.

She's taken control having never worked before (picture paris hilton), this should be fun.

[MasterAblar]

Oh man imagine being the coach in that situation. Or the players.

 

"Um, can you guys just let us do our job instead of arguing about who owns us?"

I can just picture Elle Woods (from Legally Blonde) walking onto the training pitch with high heel shoes and a little dog in her handbag, giving a pep talk.

 

You never know it might work?

[MasterAblar]

Arsenal and City win. Liverpool don't. Chelsea vs United tomorrow. One of the few times I'll ever be a United fan.

[Lilbaz]

Ablar can you stop winning please? It's really difficult to try and catch up. Swansea v Spurs also tomorrow.

[Lilbaz]

Chesea and spurs both win.

[MasterAblar]

How did Ferguson ever manage to make this United team win? Or is Moyes just that bad?

[Lilbaz]

A lot of it was psychological. Teams had partly accepted defeat before even setting foot on the pitch. Now they think they can get something.

Also it's difficult for moyes (who's never won anything) to give the hairdryer treatment to players that have won lots of trophies. Add in the ageing squad and it's a difficult time.

if they do want to keep moyes he will have to totally rebuild the squad. Which will cause it's own problems.

They messed up not going for mourinho.

Reports coming out that barca are in severe trouble over the neymar transfer. Seems it was double the amount quoted almost €100m and half has gone missing.

Their president has just resigned and barca are facing legal proceeding which they could face €220m fine, being banned from europe for a few years and have a 22point deduction.

Sorry can't link.

[MasterAblar]

Yeah, bet the spanish are just thrilled about all this...

 

Also, Radamel Falcao is looking at the very real possibility of missing the World Cup this summer because of knee injury sustained in cup play. Really hoping he'll recover on time. Wouldn't be surprised if some not quite legal medical methods allow him to do just that.

Mata is off to Man U. Sly move by Chelsea to offer a superb player to a team they've already played twice this season to make them a tougher challenge for Arsenal and Man City. Still think it's stupid. Mata is a great player.

 

Also, this is for you Lilbaz: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KeG_i8CWE8

I love Mata's transfer. The opportunity his name gives for great puns is endless. 

 

Of course, that's a Mata of Juan's opinion.

 

If you disagree, that's fine. I respect Juan's opinion on the Mata.

Should have kept him as manager.

[MasterAblar]

Well, you guys were doing better until that red card. City are just unstoppable right now. Hoping they'll screw up eventually.

[Lilbaz]

You're still top ablar. May get some stick but prefer you to win it than city and chelsea. Also don't want liverpool to get top 4.

 

We're going to have to pull our socks up, if we want anything out of this season.
