Oh right I forgot, today is when all these friendly games are played. I can't wait for the Spain vs Italy, England vs Denmark, and Brazil vs South Africa.

What's that? Why are Spurs so high

European games are worth quite a lot of points, even EL for some reason. We've played 22 games in the EL over the past two seasons and only lost twice. (Our exit to Basel was on pens and doesn't count I think). Also, as much as we've been absolute gash this season, we're still doing very well in terms of points, just other teams are doing better.

Villa have signed a Swedish U-15 international attacking midfielder. Supposedly highly rated with Ajax and Benfica chasing him too. He'll be going straight into our U-19 squad, which is pretty impressive.

After losing Dan Crowley for pennies earlier in the year, nice to see us restocking on talent.
I remember Liverpool reserves playing villa about two years ago, and some guy called Gardner, with dreads I believe, tore us apart. What happened to him?
 
I think winning the title guarantees CL football.

the season is long baby, you might still finish 5th. And even if you don't, you will without Lewy next season.

The Podolskis and the leftovers of this world are for you now

your project is dead


dead

I think winning the CL title guarantees CL football as well.

And even if we don't, we can't finish worse than all three of Schlacke, Leverkusen and Wolfsburg. It's just not possible.

And we would finish in front of them with Schieber as well. Schieber.

We are alive.
 
I was going to be grumpy being forced to wake up at 6am for this shit but Capello saved the day by not starting Kerzhakov. There's now nothing stopping Russia from winning the World Cup.

Vidic has played 204 times in the Premier League since signing from Spartak Moscow. In that time he's missed 104 games!

From SSN.

I've been unable to sleep the last two nights because the chest pains/breathing difficulties that surgery corrected three years ago has returned.

Yenny baby, go back to your doctor <3

If it happens again tonight, I will head to A&E, I feel ok at this present moment. I'm expecting an appointment with heart doc in a couple of weeks. I'm sure there is no threat to my mortality.

to clarify, it's akin to asthma + a bit of anxiety. And it is the right side of my chest, sternum/ribs.

Hey, we are playing today against USA, I thought it was cancelled. :) Not at home, but still, some entertainment.
USA can guarantee a win if they double their financial help for Ukraine or send some tanks. :p
 
Paulo Fonseca was fired today from Porto. Everyone was expecting this to happen since Sunday but it´s a bit cruel that they decided to make it official on his birthday.

Of course you guys are going to make it past Fiorentina. It's been predestined that Juve will lose in the final at home
Bayern-style

What doesn't kill you only makes you ... Bayern.

:lol

Yeah, it's shameful really. It's not like Am...

Fuck yeah.

Although I expected it to happen at the end of the season, I think it's too late to save this season...

Hope they get a good manager, I would like a foreign manager to see if they can change things up a bit.

I think that's an admission of failure if he goes back there, would be surprised if someone with his ego does so - especially at this age.
 
AVB on his way back?

Doubt it. I have no doubt Porto would love to have him back but I don´t see AVB wanting to return right now. He is ambitious and is desperate to achieve success, he doesn´t want to be marked as the manager who only did well at Porto.

AVB said he only wanted a ten year career before retiring. I'm sure it has panned out the way he wanted, he's almost halfway through his career at this point.

how large was AVB's contract at Chelsea and Spurs? should just retire from football and live off of the payouts
 
This is the best I have seen Capello's Russia play. In a random friendly. In March, when none of our players have played in 3+ months. Against Armenia.

Suck it Micky!
