Village Idiot

I like Messi's sleeve tattoo. It's based on Gaudí architecture; you can't get more Barcelona than that .

He's the head coach. If he isn't the one making that decision I'm not sure those doing it should be hiding behind him.

Sevilla sign Krohn-Dehli on a free. He's getting on a bit, but he's been quality for Celta.

Now they've made him angry. You don't want to see him angry. http://img.thesun.co.uk/aidemitlum/archive/01489/01_taykls_1489427a.jpg

Adama Traore is a beast, but he plays with the blinders on.

Partner for Piqué, right back, Xavi replacement, some better alternative to Iniesta than Rafinha. If Pedro goes, another forward. Wouldn't surprise me if we don't buy another CB though. We got Vermaelen fit now, like a new signing()

Blanc might want to check our transfer status. Anyway, I guess I'm going to look like a c*** here, but am I wrong in thinking we should rather spend money elsewhere if this is true? I don't think Pogba suits us at all.

No one got a regular place in the squad but 6-8 players featured in different games during the season I think. We might also notice that among players out on loan Rekik was a regular for the league winning PSV side, Guidetti and Denayer won the league in Scotland (Yeah, I know, one horse race) otherwise I´d say that players like Pozo or Lopes would walk into most mid table squads in the prem. Guidetti seems like he has been around forever but doesn't seem to be getting anywhere, he was supposed to be the next huge thing was he not? Aye. How dare he not break into the side ahead of Aguero, Dzeko, Balotelli, Jovetic, Tevez, Negredo... #VIEIRAOUT Have ManCity ever got any of their youngsters to play a decent role in their main squad since they got oil money? They even attempted to ruin Hart by buying Given.

Well, there's that TV cash.

Page 260. Post #6492 Saved it for a revisit in a year time. Considering the tone of the sentence "Ruining players" ..individually. If proven wrong, you'd have to do something a lot more servere than eating your words. Nah, words only will be enough. A croissant, maybe. I love croissants.

If it comes down to ET, take a player off each team every minute until someone scores. Obviously not, but it'd be entertaining. I'd love to see them try something like that tbh, have always liked the idea. There seemed to be more debate about this stuff years ago, remember people discussing hockey-style penalties and all sorts. Probably when England were always getting knocked out on penalties. Didn't the MLS have ice-hockey style penalty shootouts back in the time?

Also, at a risk of eating my words in a year's time, I can't wait for Benítez to ruin all those great players Madrid have.

They should do it like old times and play a tie-breaker game.

29-32 years of age could even be his best, given his position. A bit puzzling if Cabaye leaves PSG and ends up at Crystal Palace, much better clubs should be in there.

Worthy of a boycoutt. Your right, I agree with you're suggestion.

Nàstic and Oviedo promoted to Liga Adelante. Chuffed to see a Catalan team go up and Oviedo slowly getting back where they belong.

Also, I don't know how they have calculated this one, but it's interesting: http://s21.postimg.org/b264ck9uv/Captura.jpg Player investment needed to become a Top 3 team, by league. Millions of €.

I love the fact Germany is called Ale Mania. What's France, Cheese Frenzy? The German tribe of the Allemagni was the closest to the borders of the Roman Empire; that's why a lot of Latin languages (Spanish, French, Portuguese, Catalan...) derive its word for Germany from it.

One of our papers publishes today a raft of fun football stats. I found this one particularly striking; % of population that claims to be football fans, per country. http://s18.postimg.org/46v7j8qdl/Captura.jpg Nigeria Reino Unido = United Kingdom; Alemania = Germany. I guess all other country names don't need translation.

Yeah, that's my fear too. He ticks all those Ashleyastic boxes, while outwardly the club can claim it's an "ambitious" appointment given McClaren's won two trophies and played in an EL final.

The best for me; considering it was a final too and against good opposition Best part of it all is that CRonaldo would never do something like that. Amirite Froggy? I was talking to a friend about this last night, can anyone remember a memorable Cronaldo goal? Long-rangers (Porto)/free-kicks(Pompey) mainly. Fulham. Late winner. Ran from inside his own half. What year? The f*** does that matter for? Go on YT and search for Cristiano Ronaldo best solo goals. There's loads where he beats many players and finishes. Such short memories. Ronaldo outscored him again this year too. What a f***ing goal mind. By three goals while Ronaldo took like 10000000 pens, stop the f***ing presses there

I should be used to it, but I can't, I'm still in shock about how good he was yesterday. Two goals, running our attacking unit from the hole, that goal. THAT goal. I'm going to be so depressed when he retires.

A Real Madrid vice president has slipped and informally confirmed Benítez's signing during a meeting with a fan group.

I will also admit that I was against appointing Guardiola because he was "unproven"; so I know fuck all.
