  1. I've had FM games like this: http://i.imgur.com/mUiYbrV.jpg
  2. Fuck this. I'm going to get drunk.
  3. Knew it. We've been on the back foot all second half long.
  4. Agree. I guess Luís Enrique wants to keep the ball and see the game out, but I'd rather push for a third given that Sevilla are going to leave lots of space.
  5. Damn that Bravo howler, put Sevilla back into the game.
  6. Sevilla's anthem is so much class. Don't fuck this up lads.
  7. Torres being Torres. Misses a couple sitters and ends up scoring in the wrong net. Atlético losing now. EDIT: Griezmann fires back from an offside position.
  8. Something I found while going through the closets at my parents' house: http://s21.postimg.org/pxp7pikon/2015_04_11_17_57_28.png It's in pristine state. Pity I don't fit in it anymore.
  9. Boro, just because one of my best English friends is a smoggie. Besides that, I'd go with Bentford/Bournemouth for the same reasons you mentioned.
  10. Huge game for us tonight. Sevilla are undefeated in their last 31 home games. Unreal record. If we win this, it will be a huge step towards winning the league.
  11. Barça - Sevilla in 1989, Cruyff's second season. Quite an infamous game it became. We were winning 3-1, until the ref gave Sevilla a penalty for a foul outside the box. They scored it, we crumbled, and ended up winning 3-4. The Camp Nou was incensed, I had never seen my dad uttering so much profanity
  12. Carles Puyol already said he's more interested in a career as DoF, he's even been taking courses to that extent. I'd have him back at the club in any capacity he wanted, tbf. They gave him a figurehead position as aidé to our DoF but he quit because he wanted to learn and do real work. That's the kind of work ethic he has.
  13. Same. There'd at least be some sort of conversation about her. Something like "Was that Taylor Swift?" "Yeah I think it was." "Well that's surprising." So you're wrong VI. Hey, I clearly said "if she wasn't famous" in my claim. So not wrong
  14. Bartra's seldomly played there. He's not quick enough imho.
  15. That maybe but he's still by far your best option and that will be made very obvious when crap like Montoya is starting next season. Tbh I think Alves is a victim of his own success, he's dropped off significantly but he's still one of the better RBs around. That may say more about the position itself than anything else but still. What will we do is tie up somebody in the summer, and get by using Adriano/Montoya until January. I can live with that. We did offer him a new contract, but he refused it. He probably has a fat paycheck awaiting him at PSG and I understand he'd rather take that - it's gonna be his last big contract.
  16. Wish he aimed his crosses that well.
  17. Alves' agent has officially announced he's leaving Barça at the end of the season. He's given us a lot, but his time is over.
  18. Because they are usually very intelligent and as players could see the whole pitch. Lends quite well to coaching success. Is that backed by evidence, though? Let's take a look at current active most successful managers. Guardiola - deep lying playmaker Ancelotti - midfielder (I remember him being deployed in several positions) Mou - Not much of a footballing career but he was a midfielder IIRC Del Bosque - Defensive midfielder Simeone - Defensive midfielder Not a large sample, you might be onto something.
  19. Interesting, what makes you say so? (Siem de Jong being a good manager, I'm aware you could replace Carver with a monkey throwing poo at a tactics board and it would be an improvement)
