  2. If Lille become shit in a couple of years we'll be so fucked.
  3. What were the original ones like? Any pictures?
  4. I enjoyed the part just after the pictures when he talks about how much he hates Gattuso in the CL final just for waving to his family in the crowd.
  5. Y'know when you can't stop reading in the voice of the person writing? 'Liverpul' and 'Wuuuuuuulvs' almost killed me.
  6. Read and enjoyed recently: Pep Guardiola: Another Way of Winning - Guillem Balague I'm Not Really Here- Paul Lake La Roja: A Journey Through Spanish Football - Jimmy Burns Barca: The Making of the Greatest Team in the World - Graham Hunter Futebol: A Brazilian Way of Life - Alex Bellos I Am Zlatan - Zlatan Ibrahimovic Would like to read / know if anyone would recommend: Football Against The Enemy - Simon Kuper Behind The Curtain: Travels in Eastern European Football - Jonathan Wilson More Than Just A Game: Football Against Apartheid Tor! The Story of German Football - Ulrich Hesse-Lichtenberger Ajax, the Dutch, the War: Football in Europe during the Second World War - Simon Kuper To be avoided: Colin Murray's football miscellany or whatever it was called, decent for having a shit but nothing else.

    Which player? Paulinho from Livorno. It'll be weird for him going from a proud left wing club which has a huge, often violent rivalry with Lazio to a side ran by Mussolini. After looking up Livorno (didn't know much about them, and any left wing clubs are cool with me), turns out he did the fascist salute playing against them for Lazio.
  8. As long as he's alright off the pitch, manages to settle etc, he'll be just fine on it. Incidentally, the article on the Sevilla website has some class dodgy Google Translating: "To the memory of his dribbles Sevillismo will that left most of the belts loose, its impossible rhythm changes, the speed with which the centers arming, mythical empathy exhibited with Daniel Alves - what a pair!"
  9. Jesus Navas to Man City finalised. http://sevillafc.es/nuevaweb/actualidad/noticias/29174
  10. Pretty much all the Newcastle ones already mentioned 1-4 away to Sunderland, can't remember if anyone said that yet Honourable mentions to a couple of ones from last season like the Man U and Chelsea ones, WBA away and both Stoke ones 6-2 over Everton under Robson Random ones (my memory doesn't stretch that far): 1998 World Cup Final, just really like that France team and the celebrations around it with Zidane's face being projected onto the Arc De Triomphe etc. (Good documentary about it called Les Yeux Dans Les Bleus I'm watching atm which is probably why I picked this) Turkey's two late shows in Euro 2008 against Croatia and Czech Republic ("NIIHAAAAAAAAAT!!!") Actually, Hollands group games from then against France and Italy. They dicked them, and the supporters were all orange and that. Deportivo 4-5 Barca from earlier this season was fun. Man U v Chelsea in the league cup too. Actually, the 2-6 Clasico that VI mentioned. I feel like the 2010-11 Barca team were at a higher level but the 2008-09 team that won the treble were much more likable and a little rougher around the edges. Germany 4-2 Costa Rica, 2006. Oddly because of how much it seemed the nation was united behind the team, I wanted Germany to win that year. Also Paulo Wanchope scored! Brazil v France from that too Third place play-offs in international tournaments are usually good fun Chelsea 4-4 Liverpool from 2009 England 4-1 Holland, 1996 Czech Republic 3-2 Holland, Euro 2004
  11. Aye, I'm going with them based on that game and the end of the one against Leeds. Scenes. Plus Danny Gabbidon can get fucked.

  13. So, er... Bundesliga highlights on ITV4 tonight or tomorrow?
  14. Messi scored one a bit like that a few years ago against Recreativo Huelva. Not sure how subtly I can put this, but try looking on a popular video sharing website.
  15. Didn't we do well, ladies and gentlemen?

  17. Beat Wigan. Oh aye, I was trying to remember if he'd scored an own goal or something against us.
  18. Jotenko. (Why is Tiendalli an option, I've forgotten)
  19. Hatem sprinting back like fuck to close someone down after we'd lost the ball.
  20. http://www.footballshirtculture.com/images/HSV-13-14-adidas-home-football-shirt-b.jpg Hamburg, cracking.
