Village Idiot

Yeah he says that now, after the giant f***ing shitstorm. Makes sense when you know what he was on about. Probably lost in translation (in his brain if he said it in English) He says it in Spanish originally, and his backpedalling is damage control. It's not like his fitness levels are over the roof, anyway.

Real Sociedad - Málaga should be a tasty game; both teams are in great form.

Here you have it, Cronaldo's quotes, in English: http://en.as.com/en/2016/02/27/football/1456598707_801727.html

Whoever loses, we win.

There's been bother outside the Bernabéu. Police had to charge against Real Madrid ultras.

One i saw is if everyone was as good as me we'd be first. He even pointed at Kovacic, Jesé, Lucas as not being good enough. ("They are good players but..."). Such an asshole

Madrid losing, Pardew doing a Pardew, what a great afternoon.

Cristiano Ronaldo losing it talking to the press after the game I hope I can find an English link of what he said... mostly that his teammates are shit and they should be as good as he is.

Aarons hasn't signed a new contract yet? Damn.

Some really tasty games in there.

It's all the brits leeching off our social security!

It's kinda sucky, but with the recession, extending subway times for now it's not feasible. Financial efforts have been focused on keeping fares low, which is pretty important when you have the kind of unemployment we do.

Well, at least they take fans into account. When Barça gets a 22.00 Sunday kickoff you have to run like Usain Bolt to be able to catch the last subway home (subway closes at 00.00).

Reckon they've become so fixated on being focussed on tight defending they've lost their limited way going forward. Doesn't help Griezman is off form at the moment, Carrasco missing too. Their two wildcard players. Yeah, they are slow and dull going forward. Teams got savvy enough to not let Griezman run wild on the counter, and they don't seem to have much more venues of creating chances at the moment. They are missing Turan, on that regard.

Just heard the director of Radio Marca saying that Celta are better than Arsenal anyway, so bitter

Who would've thought that after buying Vietto and Jackson, and having Griezman already in the squad, Atlético would have such trouble finding goals.

Well that would work if every team was Barcelona. Yeah, a CB with great recovery is exactly the kind of CB we need alongside Piqué. We push up our defence a lot, so we need a pace-ish CB to deal with counters and long balls over our back 4. Him and Piqué complement each other well.

Mascherano is great for us. He gets a lot of stick as a CB but truth be said we miss him a lot when he's not there. His recovery and tackling skills are unmatched in our squad. I think he's one of the best tacklers around to be frank. Him and Piqué complement each other well. Problem is that beyond that we have a lot of dross in defensive positions.

By the way, extremely telling that Lucho didn't make any sub tonight. It's pretty clear he doesn't trust anything from the bench when facing the big boys, I just hope their legs don't fall off when we get to the business end.

English football in general that though, far from exclusive to Arsenal. It's ridiculous though, I'd stay just to watch Messi, Neymar and Suarez play together. Yeah, I wish I could do that. Oh wai-- EDIT: okay, that was a bit cuntish, wasn't it?

Fantastic result. Thought that Arsenal put up a very good display but we managed to get the better of them during the second half.

It looks like it was just Nauzet and Araujo.

I suppose there's more to the story than it is being let on. Drinks and young people can be an explosive mix.

Several Las Palmas players were beaten up by their own fans after being caught partying after their defeat against us, this past Saturday night. Nauzet Alemán got glassed in the face and has received 18 stitches. Nasty stuff.

Wait, have we won this thing already? I don't want to jinx it...
