Football The 2011/2012 Season Thread

and there's no chance of a cleansheet, pretty terrible not topping our group tbh

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Arsenal the only English club guaranteed a place in the next round so far, who'd have thought that after 5 games.

Also, we're the only non-domestic-champions in our group.

And yes, Song's maze up is epic. What a man.

 

[CorNokZ]

No talk about how amazing Valencia played tonight, about the insane Boateng goal or how poor Valdes actually is?

 

[megadave]

nah

 

[megadave]

u seen this corky

 

[Keitanz]

why would we pick benitez? there's 0 chance of that

Same old tonight, shit tactics, shit defending, shit all effort, shit referee. Starting to wonder how much more my faith in AVB can plummet but i'm sure i'll find out at the weekend

Our defenders are fine, we have the same personnel as last season when we had the joint best defence, it's the fucking retarded way they're set up that's the problem.

Cause he has quite a decent european record!

 

[megadave]

but he plays dire football and is a fucking muppet

just saw the highlights, valencia were as good as genk were shit. Boatengs goal was awesome, Abidal's anus must still be sore

Yeah it looks fucking lush. Visited the site some time ago, but because of finances they can't afford having people working on it, lol. When I visited the site a guy told us that if they started up again it would take them just 16 months to finish. I highly doubt that as its current state looks nothing like the above. Also it not located very close to Estadio Mestalla. Seems like they have moved it to a nicer and richer neighbourhood. I understand why they wanted(and need) a new stadium, the old Mestalla is seriously fucked, but why they are expanding it since it is never ever filled. Not even during big CL matches or the ones against Real or Barca. Only the cheap stands are full

 

[Lethul]

If Suarez would have pulled off Xavi's dive there would be some serious shit in the papers

 

[Everz]

They build big stadiums that they never will fill because of extra revenue generated if they can get more in. Look at us, we won't fill at 41,000 stadium ever hah.

 

[Aoami]

So apparently Tevez has gone AWOL and hasn't been to training for a month. Reports suggest he's in Buenos Aires. What a prize prick.

 

[Everz]

His career is over tbh. What a tool he is, why would any manager take a punt on him?

 

[Calaen]

Man City should sue him for his transfer value due to his behaviour and Fifa should ban him for 5 years. Absolute disgrace to footballers.

Zlatan vs Tevez. Battle of the egos.

With a move by Milan like that, is it too soon to say that Berlusconi has taken back control of Milan?
Boggles the mind really.

 

[Everz]

I thought he never ceased control of Milan?

 

[Raven]

That's odd. I thought he wanted to be back at home...again.

 

[soze]

I though he wanted to be with his wife and kid who would not live in Manchester. Millan is obviously acceptable to her.

you mean the wife and kid who were in manchester before this latest blowup?

 

[soze]

Maybe it's his mistress and bastards that won't live in England then

he's got evil in his name

 

[CorNokZ]

Andr Evil Las Boas

 

[Vladamir]

I hope he plays a high line again tomorrow.

 

[Vladamir]

And with that it is confirmed in this interview; "The philosophy will continue until the end of the season"

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/15894937.stm

Hurrah

 

[megadave]

i reckon he'll change it eventually and we'll start winning

 

[Ch3tan]

So FF; RvP is bound to be shit and get injured today as I picked him and dropped Rooney.

 

[caLLous]

Anderson out til Feb, on the off-chance that anyone had him in their team after his recent performances. I have Adebayor in for Dzeko this week, and my defense includes two NEW and one MUN but I don't want to waste points by changing it up.
