He's been playing really well for Barca B and is apparently going to be loaned out to a first team of some other La Liga club next year. Sucks that we lost him but at least we'll be well compensated in the end!

If Barca wanted to be dicks, they'd sell him for cheap to another club and put in a buy-back clause and buy him back at the end of the season. I think that could wipe out some of the incentives that were included in his transfer to them. :lol

I miss him. But Rony keeps me warm.

 

[rodvik]

I don't think anyone knows, seems to change all the time and not in a fluid, impossible to mark kind of way. In a aimless, whats going on, where am I kind of way.

It is bizarre. Kind of a 4-1-2-2-1? kind of thing?

 

[K1LLER7]

Actually Benzema will lead France to World Cup glory too.

 

[Zabojnik]

What episode are you on? Gonna watch the final one tonight

About to watch Episode 4. Loving it so far. "Why do they need to remake this, it's fucking brilliant as it is" keeps coming to mind as I watch.

Nite.

 

[3Sixty]

If only Walcott was here ;_;

If only Bale was English.

 

[Marc]

I thought you said defensive midfielders didn't need much ability to do their job. Cleverley should be fine.

Yeah, that doesn't mean I think a fucking potato can do the job. Or someone more interested in hollywood passes and running forward every chance he gets like Stevie Me.

I mean someone like Cattermole or other more limited players will do, as they are dedicated to do that role and can do it well. They just have to be a pain in the arse to attacks, keep the simple pass going, block shots, make the odd tackle and man mark the creative opposition.


This game is so dead, its like looking into Woy's eyes.

 

[Meier]

Ha, that would have been a major error by Mangala. Very close.

 

[Wilbur]

It is bizarre. Kind of a 4-1-2-2-1? kind of thing?

so... 4-3-3.

People in this thread are being overly pessimistic and weird. We haven't looked very good, but there is a clear shape there.

 

[survivor]

:lol

rumania - argentina ended scoreless?

Spain are going to win the WC again, aren't they?

Brazil got this

 

[bjaelke]

Sturridge!

 

[3Sixty]

Dat Lallana.

Honestly.

 

[HotHamWater]

Thank fuck it wasn't Welbeck.

 

[Hixx]

Lovely ball from lallana. LOVELY

 

[dc89]

DANCE DANNY DANCE

 

[Batigol]

All Lallana

 

[K1LLER7]

Lallana so good.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Hollywood passes that make it to their target and provide a massive threat 8 times out of 10



Lallurridge!!!!

 

[pulga]

DJANGO!

So good. White looks nice on him! :3

 

[Walshy]

Brilliant from Lallana.

 

[Wilbur]

Great play by Lallana

 

[Wes]

Lallana has been the best England player tonight.

 

[Ushojax]

Lallana is so good. Makes people like Wilshere and Rooney look like pieces of furniture. Silky.

 

[Feorax]

THE DANCE!!!!

Great play with Sterling and Lallana.

 

[Scum]

Nice one, Liverpool.

 

[Marc]

DO THE DANCE!!!

Great move by Lallana, good finish. Danes were a bit shy of getting involved though, bit too easy.

 

[survivor]

That was good

 

[L1NETT]

I'm Gene Hunt. Your DCI. It's 1973. It's dinner time, i'm having hoops.

And that soundtrack. Fuuuuuuuu

Time for a rewatch.

 

[Barzul]

Hodgson vindicated. Sturridge on the wing to continue. You know that's how he'll see it.

 

[rodvik]

so... 4-3-3.

People in this thread are being overly pessimistic and weird. We haven't looked very good, but there is a clear shape there.

I know 4-3-3 my dear chap, that sir, is a fucking shite 4-3-3 if that is what it is trying to be

Also GOAL!

 

[Wilbur]

DJANGO!

So good. White looks nice on him! :3

racist

 

[Freewheelin']

DJANGO!

So good. White looks nice on him! :3

Madrid to buy him next season

 

[The_Hitcher89]

DJANGO!

So good. White looks nice on him! :3

Don't you fucking dare

 

[K1LLER7]

Nice one, Liverpool.

Was all Southampton

 

[Meier]

Has it been mentioned that Berlusconi is looking to sell Milan?

AC Milan, the seven-time European soccer champion owned by former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, is weighing a sale, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.

Lazard Ltd. has sent marketing documents to potential buyers, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the process isn’t public.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-...-sale-as-lazard-contacts-possible-buyers.html

Ooh, Ivory Coast just came back to tie it 2-2 versus Belgium. Benteke's miss hurts even more now (even though it's just a friendly, you know they want to win).

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Was all Southampton

Goals win games, not crosses

 

[Wilbur]

I know 4-3-3 my dear chap, that sir, is a fucking shite 4-3-3 if that is what it is trying to be

Also GOAL!

How? Gerrard is deep, Lallana and Ox are just ahead of him, Sturridge and Sterling are staying out wide and Welbeck is up top. The only thing ruining it is Ox perhaps pushing forward a bit too much, but it's an absolutely standard 4-3-3

People putting the boot into Roy even when there's no need to. I think he's a fucking dinosaur but it's pretty simple every time I look at the screen how we've set up all game.

 

[Milchmonster]

Isla trying to kill Poldi with a tackle.

Wait a second

Yurt pls

 

[3Sixty]

Goals win games, not crosses

Moyes would disagree.

 

[Batigol]

Andros 'that one good game' Townsend

 

[Marc]

Hollywood passes that make it to their target and provide a massive threat 8 times out of 10



Lallurridge!!!!

They are often lofted, by the time they reach the target the defence has already reshuffled. They don't work at international level when up against the best; short, fast passing and movement is more suited to international football.

Sometimes they create a threat but often against minnows.



Sterling off for Townsend, decent performance, some poor touches and blind running at times.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

There are two shitty Andy Townsends in Wembley tonight

 

[Bumhead]

Took Clive Tyldsley about 2 minutes after we scored to go from the turgid shit we've been watching to talking about an "embarrassment of riches".

Odious cunt.

 

[Dibbz]

I imagine others like me have only heard of it now that the yanks are looking to make their own version of it. Do one.

So like I said people only taking notice because of the yank connection. No need to get fucking upset because people have watched it before you have.

 

[wakajawaka]

Poor Costa so nervous today

 

[Elchele]

Poor Costa so nervous today

imagine him playing in Brazil :loooool

 

[Hixx]

I'm Gene Hunt. Your DCI. It's 1973. It's dinner time, i'm having hoops.

And that soundtrack. Fuuuuuuuu

Time for a rewatch.

I fell in love with it in the... third or so episode when they go into the mill

"Drop your weapons! You are surrounded by armed bastards!"

 

[Wilbur]

Milner coming on for Sturridge, now that's the shit Roy should get punished for, not because he's playing a 4-3-3 that looks like a 4-1-2-2-1 which is what every fucking 4-3-3 is on Football Manager

 

[KidA Seven]

Poor Costa so nervous today

#ForzaLlion

 

[FootballFan]

Pedro

so good

<3

 

[K1LLER7]

Poor Costa so nervous today

Doesn't look the same.

Knows he is now competing for his place with the Fernando "King of Europe" Torres.


Pedro so good.
