Didn't see that, read it way too fast. It's late So Real Sociedad is like Everton. Think Moyes might get them to 10th, then? I don't know if there are many good teams in Spanish football apart from Barca, RM and Atletico Madrid? Apart from the top 3? 4? are the teams pretty even? They'll be aiming higher than 10th I would've thought given their last few seasons They have lost several of the players that got them there though. Anyway, it's an ambitious appointment for them, certainly means they are aiming for Europe instead of being content with life in midtable.

Bunch of managers come here without Spanish knowledge and eventually do fine.

Terms of succeeding for Real Sociedad are competing for an European slot. They are smaller than Everton in the EPL, I'm a bit surprised he didn't hold out for a bigger club. That said, I'm pleased that he tried something new, and by having him in Spain.

Moyes appointed Real Sociedad manager.

73, with 9 on the bench. Happy enough.

Ah well, his FF points will slightly make up for the fact we shouldn't have sold him.

I had heard and seen him play, but I didn't expect such an immediate impact as soon as he was given time on the pitch.

Chuffed for the lad. Please don't sell him.

Hmm, obviously there's the Spurs one but what was the other one? I was wrong, only the FF site seems to give him 2, so it must be a "fantasy football" assist.

45 with 5 to go; thanks to captain Agüero.

That's the problem with Rayo, there's a reason they finished with the highest conceded goals last season, despite finishing midtable

I love Jémez. 2-0 down at the Bernabéu? Let's just attack more and get one back. They'll probably end up losing by a comfortable margin, but I love his mentality.

Gave the stunner to Joe Hart.

Suarez had a brilliant 15-20minute spell. Neymar is lucky he scored because he was dogshite, felt like he kept running into a wall. Aye, Suárez will be brilliant once he finally settles into the team. Problem is they look quite bereft of confidence at the moment, and our midfield gets easily bypassed and loses too many balls, since Enrique is trying to implement a more direct style.

Thank fuck.

Well, we're actually having less chances with Ney and Suárez on the pitch. Although Suárez has, again, hit the post.

No, they aren't. They were for the first 20 minutes without a doubt in my opinion. Munir and Messi had a chance but they had plenty of corners and were by far the better team. Looks like we're losing again today, unless we find shooting boots for the second half. I can't believe how much the team has sunk in the past weeks. Suarez and Neymar have to go straight in now and I think you'll turn it around. It was a nonsensical decision to drop both; in particular since Pedro hasn't shown any kind of form either.

Ah well.

Can we order goals just an inch larger?

We are quite shit, mind.

No, they aren't.

That's a bit of a headscratching team; I hope we don't regret it

The two players I transferred out this week have already scored points, FML
