Disgusting use of oil money to build modern infrastructure, don't they know that there is soviet nostalgics watching

3pm CL kick off. God bless Central Asia's inexplicable involvement in UEFA.

The one who played and scored for us on Sunday? :lol: fucking hell, I knew I'd become a bit disolousened (Apple has no idea how to fix that mess) and out of touch but I didn't realise it was that bad. :lol: classic Hans

Maddest thing about Agbonlahor is that Villa seem to have no intention of replacing or upgrading on him. They play him over that highly rated kid from Barca they bought. Dunno what it is with shite Anglo-Nigerian strikers hanging around at their hometown clubs for far too long. At least Everton had the sense to punt Anichebe I guess.

I mean if you're gonna employ some Italian geriatric who loves money at least go for Lippi or Trapattoni who still seem competent.

Christ, Capello would be a fucking awful choice based on his last few jobs. He looks every bit a manager who started his career in the 80s these days. Russia binned him for Slutsky and have looked like Barca compared to under him.

# Good selection, agree with pretty much all of these.

Thing is I don't think Man City have really done that. They've actually built their side in quite a dull non-galactico way, making sensible signings and building a balanced squad. I mean imagine having an unlimited budget and signing the likes of Fernando and Milner. Although I suppose in the early Robinho, Tevez, Adebayor years they did.

Good idea. Although you're obviously wrong about Ozil you cunt. I'll have a go. Ben Foster - crisp packet hands, seems irritating as well Hutton - just fucking awful Shawcross - can't pass a ball but mainly because i'm sick of hearing the cunt's name on here Phil Jones - a symptom of Fergie going senile Luke Shaw - most boring wonderkid ever Gardner - nee talent shithouse Carrick - shite Fernando - crap but moreso it annoys me that Fernandinho (who is IMO excellent) gets stick simply by association Milner - agree, never really rated him Jerome - dreadful footballer that somehow keeps getting a PL gig Rooney - been beyond shite for about 2 years now

And a Ballon D'or nomination.

Bernabeu

He's played the last 3 games. Huge bastard. Wasn't even born when Buffon made his Italy debut

dat straw clutching

Bonaventura is a nice player to watch. Surprised he never gets called up for Italy.

Absolute rubbish. The best football they played was easily when Robben was at his best and then after that it was under Hiddink. You and Ancelotti man. Nah, Ronaldo is spot on. Ancelotti's Chelsea absolutely obliterated the league, scoring 103 goals and battering teams left right and centre. Compare that to Mourinho's first two seasons where they scored 72 and 73.

Pure crease that the Meelan keeper was born in 1999 ffs

Abramovic is quite clearly the best thing that happened to Chelsea, not Mourinho. Ancelotti, Hiddink, Benitez, Di Matteo all won trophies. Avram Grant got them to a CL final FFS. It's basically a free shot at all the major trophies for any manager who gets the job, followed by a nice cushy pay off.

I could be wrong but I'm sure there was only one previous 0-0 so far this season. They mentioned something along those lines on the guardian pod earlier in the week. There was 2 before this weekend, Carpi vs Napoli + Inter vs Juve. Still a crazy stat to have more in one day than in previous 10 matchdays.

How the fuck have we managed to have all our fucking goalkeepers injured for the 2nd season in a row. What a pisstake of a football club.

Getting botted by Fiorentina's second string here

Absolutely beautiful. Exactly the way the contemptible little upstarts deserve to be treat. #ARAB

.@MesutOzil1088 has the best assists per game rate in #BPL history - averaging one every 2.71 matches #SWAARS A 'fraud' according to some on here.

He's decent on the ball but he a) cannit run because he grew on a diet of battered irn-bru cans b) will half you given half the chance because he is rough as fuck.

Unless its instant technology its a slippery slope IMO. Rugby is absolutely unwatchable because of all this nonsense.
