Not worthy of a thread - 2018 FIFA World Cup edition
Flip replied to OzzieMandias's topic in Football
So it's been decided that the World Cup Final 2022 will be played on December 18th. Ridiculous. I associate World Cup with June/July. I hate this idea. FIFA are rotten. Just today information came out they made a $5billion profit on the WC in Brazil while the Brazilian people paid $30billion out of their own pocket. Great. FIFA were generous enough to hand the Brazilian football generation a donation worth $100m which has already disappeared into bunch of old dudes pockets. -
Atletico MG beat Santa Fe away in the Libertadores to keep them alive in their group. Boca Juniors have apparently been impressive as well, but I think Corinthians are the best team in South America this year. With Tite back the organized football is back and we just don't concede goals very often. Add experience to all of that and this team can't crumble under pressure hopefully. Cristian (ex-Fenebarche), Elias (ex-AtlMadrid and Sporting), Renato Augusto (ex-Bayer L), Vagner Love (ex-CSKA), Jadson (ex-Shaktar) and then the guys from the team that won 2012 as Guerrero, Danilo, Sheik and Ralf and I just can't see how they aren't favourites.

really couldn't enjoy the 2nd half. What were they up too ffs?

As awesome as he's been the finishing has been absolutely atrocious, as it great as he was it was made to look even better by the abysmal finishing. If they want to win the competition they will have to be a lot more efficient than this against both Madrid teams, Bayern and so on. The finishing was terrible, but Hart stopped everything that came his way. He was excellent for once.
-
Hart has been amazing, but Suarez and Neymar have to be careful they don't finish like this in the next round cause then they really might be in trouble.
-
Should be over, Suarez and Neymar have had 5-6 clear chances in the last game and this one. They should've finished this already.
-
He's so fucking ridiculous. Barcelona should have killed it, just like in the first leg Suarez and Neymar missed a chance each which should've been goal. Barcelona are excellent but Neymar has been their worst player on the pitch, sure he is creating something but he should be much more confident against Sagna.
-
Time to shine Barcelona.

Might? Already a horrible decision, better than everyone in their offensive midfield except probably Hazard (even that is debatable though). Isn't he a striker? I haven't seen him play much but he should have a decent PL career at the least looking at his impact on the Championship. Yeah was definitely talking about De Bruyne Who the f*** is Bamford? Bamford scored 2 brilliant goals for Boro at the weekend, albeit against woeful Ipswich defending. Looks a classy forward. Cool, but why the need to change the smilies? I like my laughing smilies. 'polic tyring to rule the world.

My man John Mensah. Up there with Anelka CL Final & Stam Euro semi's - as the most obvious penalty misses in the history of football. Roberto Baggio 94.

I think he's fantastic, only real spark of genius in that Lazio team which is otherwise extremely meh at best. Been keeping a close eye on him ever since the Roma game which he was brilliant in and for some reason the manager took him off I'll have to try and catch a game with them, but I can't stand italian football nowadays. Used to love it 7-10 years back, but it's absolutely horrible and I'm basically only watching La Liga these days, even the PL quality has declined for me.
-
Anyone who watches Serie A and has an opinion of Felipe Anderson, apparently 8 goals and 7 assists in the last 11 games or so for Lazio, but I've only seen few games of him and he didn't really impress me.
-
So if the Sun and Lee Ryder (I know) are right. Then Gus Poyet is gone.
-
He must be gone anyways right? No way he can stay beyond the summer? Yes way. Nah, no way, nah.

New manager bounce effect against us. Classic.

Outrageous attempt Just seen it. Absolutely ridiculous

Season was over as soon as Pardew wasn't sacked in the summer. Then it died even more with Carver appointed manager until the summer. It's all fair to give him abuse for this season and even last, but let's not forget what he did for this club during 2-3 seasons. If I woke up everyday knowing I'd have to play next to Steven Taylor or Mike Williamson and have Carver managing me, I'd be getting sent off every game until they just gave me vacation so I could enjoy my money. It's obviously unprofessional what he has done/is doing, but at the same time I just can't blame him, our club is total shambles, he's been done for over 18months and yet he's here captaining the side and playing every game because we're a piece of shit. Also, him being shit helps us towards not appointing Carver at the summer.
-
He is now poor but he hasn't always been. The abuse is uncalled for in my opinion. Still think he is our best centre half because we are so weak in that area. Both.

Bordeaux support is amazing today.

Didn't pull up any trees.
