Football The 2015/2016 Season Thread

[caLLous]

I'm sorely tempted to watch that game - should be really interesting. Instead I'll be watching The Hateful Eight at the cinema in town.

Klopp's on a winner here. Players are dropping like flies so he fields the youngsters. He gets to see them working in a competetive fixture at 100% (they've names to make for themselves here). If they win, great - and maybe he's got a couple for the first team squad. If they lose, meh - it's a shame, but at least we've solved some of our fixture congestion issues.

It's getting to the point where youngsters is all you have left to field.

Watching the Exeter Liverpool game with a pool fan, great stuff.

 

[soze]

Fuck Man U. So shit and look at shrek celebrate he should be embarrassed.

 

[Embattle]

Such a silly tackle for the Sheffield player to make.

Liverpool are willing to listen to offers of £25m for Sturidge! He has played 3 times this season seems like the right guy for Arsenal.

Swansea unlucky there player booked for diving then a dive at the other end and the ref gives a penalty. Stupid challenge to give the guy a chance to dive but it was a dive.

Spuds pen was so lucky, second worst handball decision I've seen this season!

So Messi wins the Ballon d'Or, I'm surprised how low Neymar's % was.

 

[Embattle]

It is and generally always has been an utterly pointless award in recent times.

 

[caLLous]

Always or in recent times?

 

[CorNokZ]

I just hope that I pull some TOTY players in FUT otherwise I'll be pissed off and delete the shit

 

[Embattle]

Always or in recent times?

Certainly recently but I suspect if you look back further then probably always.

FIFA censored Neymar during the Ballon d'Or:

 

[CorNokZ]

They even did Ronaldo:

Like all awards.

 

[Bodhi]

Like all awards.

Spot the poor little flowers who never won any

Lol!

I meant like the golden globes, oscars, yadda yadda yadda. Awards of that nature are self serving.

So messi gets best football player. Winning the league should be enough for him. The rest is pointless dick-sucking...

Why? I prefer the PFA because its recognition from your peers rather than FIFA suits, but there's nothing wrong with recognising achievement. Simple fact is at the moment there are two players who've dominated all of football for the last 7-8 years, which is remarkable.

 

[caLLous]

The Ballon d'Or is voted for by journalists isn't it?

Edit: and national team coaches and captains.

Why? Shouldn't even be there tbf!

Multiple choice. Get as many players from their "transfer trails" as possible in 2 minutes.

that's quite tough!

Aye it's harder than you might think for some of them. They didn't include club crests because they thought there might be legal issues, which doesn't help (when you can't even figure out which team it is in the first place).

 

[Billargh]

So we've signed Shelvey and Saivet (who I have zero knowledge of) and we're shipping Tiote off for £8m, fucking lol. Seems like an alright window so far.

Saivet is a FM legend!

Watched im in Liverpool-Bordeaux games, quite powerful nifty player, was a forward when he was a epic FM player but seemed to be CM now. Was a handful in both games, i reckon he will be the better purchase.

Lost ten points because I couldn't bring myself to click on Rio Ferdinand

 

[Vae]

80 POINTS

YOU GUESSED 11 OUT OF 10 QUESTIONS CORRECTLY.

THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING AND THE PUDDING, IN THIS CASE, IS FOOTBALL. KEEP TRYING.

God knows how I got 11 out of 10!
