Probably a Giggs (who might be a contender himself anyway one year), but pretty random. :lol:

Bilbao and Southampton have some historical ties (the shirt, for starters), so I guess that's why they went for a Southampton player for the inaugural award.

This is fun. Real Madrid have admitted to have funded astroturfing campaigns via social media, blogs, etc... to - for example - generate favorable states of opinion, improve the image of unpopular players, create the impression that refereeing is unfavorable to them, undermining certain journalists regarded as hostile...

 

I mean, I'm aware this is probably commonplace, but it's the first time I see a club admitting to buying media plants, and I wonder to what extent clubs do it.

 

This was done within a court case (that doesn't involve directly them), where the company they hired to perform the astroturfing is being investigated for bribes and fraud.

Gregory Mertens has died. Only 24. :(

RIP. Bad year for Belgium in that regard, second time so far this year one of their young players die.
