  1. I like Costa. He was clinical in the box when the ball dropped to him. It would suck to lose him as he's a character for the PL, too.
  2. Thought he looked invisible for Holland, too. He seems to need to be the main focus in order to be most effective. Anywhere else and he won't really be doing anything. If he does go Liverpool, it'll be between him and Coutinho for that free roaming 10 spot and they already have Mane as the winger/striker, so dunno where he fits it. He'd be better off at Spurs IMO. I doubt we'll keep hold of him. I feel like Rafa could find a better replacement anyway once we're back in the Prem.
  3. What kind of post is this? I thought Flanagan was great two years ago and could have been in the England team for the World Cup. But he's played like five games since then so it'd be a huge risk. As a footballer, he seems very intelligent.
  4. Conte's gonna get sacked. Can't see him him being at Chelsea for too long. Kante is an idiot. Giving up Champions League to play for Chelsea.
  5. They're... Nice. I kinda want to buy one.
  6. He said immobile and that's the guy that sprung to mind.
  7. Well he's always just been this extremely talented player who lack any sorts of mobility. People hoped he'd become much more mobile and dynamic, but his game is just made for walking football. He's a classy immobile player, which leads to him being a bit too inconsistent. Don't think he'll be a hit in Sevilla, but hope he succeeds as he's just one of those classy footballers with a very good left-foot and vision. Who else has had that type of style? Kevin Nolan and maybe Berbatov?
  8. What the hell happened to AC Milan?
  9. Looks like he can play the fuck out of a clarinet. He looks so retro. I kinda like it. People have underestimated Portugal for a while, in the last 16 years have been going far in more than half of the major tournaments. Euro 2000 - Semi-finals loss to France (winners) WC 2002 - Knocked-out in group stage. Euro 2004 - 2nd. Lost in finals. WC 2006 - Finished 4th. Euro 2008 - Lost in quarter-finals to Germany. WC 2010 - Lost to winners in round of 16. Euro 2012 - semi-finals loss to winners. WC 2014 - Knocked-out in group stages. Euro 2016 - Champions. I mean that is a very good record for a team that has for most parts never been considered a favorite to win anything. Quite impressive record in international tournaments. I feel like they were punching above their weight even then. What do you think?
  10. Never thought Portugal would win a trophy. They have a solid team, but nothing spectacular. Happy for them, though. Ronaldo, too. Whether he played the entire final or not, his legacy is so much more greater now. You could argue that his career was Portugal's window to win something and they actually did. Incredible really.
  11. 80's cop show tastic. Haha I was telling my girl the exact same thing.
  12. We playing Bradford or something?
  13. He always had good games against Chelsea as did most of our team. He bagged a few assists against them.
  14. What a loser. He's as dumb as he looks.
  15. He's been so good for so long but only recently got into the French squad. Deschamps is a moron.
  16. Pleased for Fonte. Quite the career he's had. Who would have thought he'd be here?
  17. I love Jotenko. Can't believe defenders from Swansea, West Ham, and Southampton are starting a European cup semi.
  18. I liked the previous one the most. It felt prestigious. The current one isn't bad, mind. The PL do a good job with things like this. I'm hoping for more of the same.
  19. They've gone backwards. Did better when they designed their shirts themselves.
  20. Benteke seems like the type of player that'd thrive under Pardew. He did well under Sherwood who was constantly hyping him, talking about his stats, etc.
  21. It worked here because they had more of the ball but they'll need Kante against Germany.
