The other games today - 2013/14


Recommended Posts

Gareth Bale's El Clasico Debut: 54% pass completion rate, 0% take-on success, 0% cross success, 2 fouls & 1 yellow card. Absolutely abject.

 

Quiet terrible. I personally like Bale and hope he gets better there, but this whole thing about Madrid being every player's dream pisses me off. So fuck them if they flop.

To be fair, you're just Real Madrid lite in that respect.

 

I agree. But for us, it's mostly about players of other mid-table clubs who jump the ship (Sunderland, etc). Not ones with potential to be elite.

 

Sahin leaving BVB for Madrid after his unreal season, Bale doing the same, Coentrao was touted as a top 3 Left Back before his move and many more examples when it was clear the teams of those players were clearly on the up before Madrid came calling. Well, maybe it's my personal dislike of living in Spain that makes it unappealing. Cristiano Ronaldo would have had so much success had he stayed in United. 1 League win and 1 cup win in 4 years despite his incredible numbers. That's a very poor return despite him hitting those incredible numbers and stats for them.

Leroy Fer scored a perfectly good, if not cuntish, goal today apparently. Interesting to see it on MOTD

 

The ref made an arse of it by all accounts, said he hadn't 'blown his whistle' for the throw in to be taken????

I think it reduces the impact. Seems to get earlier every year as everyone on TV falls over themselves to appear the most caring. It's as cynical as you like.

 

Why not just wear them all the time?
