Nobody Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Nah but he immediately handballed after the tackle and got booked. Something like that anyway. Nope, the clueless cunt didn't even give us a free kick for the hand ball. We did get the throw in though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Why is he so considered as a forward in Spain? Is he not rated in midfield? I know the competition is amazing there but he deserves a chance, one of the best midfielders I've seen in the premier league and seems such a waste Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Only 3 centre backs? And Javi Garcia? No Michu? Javi García will probable get axed from the final 23-man list. The 3 CBs is a bit iffy, with Puyol heading to the scrap yard that was a great chance to give somebody like Iñigo Martínez a taste of international competition. Martínez can fill in as CB in a pinch I guess. Del Bosque is the one that started playing Cesc as deep-lying 9, guess he sees him in that role going forward. I personally think he's largely ineffectual. He naturally drops deep, keeps ball, looks up to find a pass... and there's nobody in the box since he's the supposed striker.

AlanSkÃrare Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 This Newcastle Brown Ale "No Bollocks" campaign is brilliant, some excellent ads. Wish the club took some part in it instead of the opposite, i.e. spit nothing but bollocks and play bollocks all the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Casillas Arbeloa. Ramos. Pique. Jordi. Alba Busquets Xavi. Xabi Pedro/Mata. Villa. Iniesta Something like that. Mata has never been a starter for Del Bosque, he's always preferred Pedro, but that might change after the season's Mata just had. I'm not too sure about Villa's role given age and fitness, so we could be back to 460 with Cesc upfront. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
