MULLERRRR YOU LEGEND. Thomas singlehandedly saving football :D Now please don't fuck this up Bayern

I think Lowe should try to make his lineup as close to Bayern Munich as possible, since most of his star players are from Bayern anyway. Spain is the living proof that using lineups tried and tested at club level is the best solution when possible. Even if in terms of individual players the...

You shouldn't really give this any publicity. The IFFHS is a non-existent organization, they're not even officially recognized by their country. It's a one man show run by a shady man, Alfredo Poge, which for some reason FIFA/some want to shove down people's throats. Many reputed sports...

What I want: Levante What is likely to happen: Malaga

Interesting. What makes La Liga more important than any other league? I bet when he was at Chelsea and Inter, PL and Serie A were the most important leagues in the world :lol:

Everyone though Cristiano's goal record last season was impossible. One year later, it has been obliterated by two different players with two matches still left to go. Every year, Barcelona and Real Madrid get 150 million from the TV deal, other teams get 15 million or less. The gap will only...

The numbers will only go up in the next few years - the gulf between the top 2 and the bottom 18 is only increasing.

It symbolizes his 7 league titles - 2 with FC Porto, 2 with Chelsea, 2 with Inter, 1 with Madrid.

He should recover and rest for the Copa final, that's when we'll need him the most. Until then, Thiago, Cesc and co. can do the job.

The man was right after all, the final won't be Real Madrid vs Chelsea. Never doubt his predictive power again :lol: Speaking of Real Madrid managers, this must have been sweet revenge for Jupp Heynckes, who got unceremoniously sacked from Real Madrid after winning the Champions League (the 7th...

Bayern hopefully. One of the greatest clubs in European football history vs a club which became relevant in Europe thanks to oil money Attacking/possession football vs defensive/parking the bus football Only big club in Europe operating on a profit every year vs club with unlimited amount of...

Of course. It's a very cheap price to pay for the world's best goalkeeper, especially when he's young and can play at the highest level for over a decade.

But the things is that it is only a "failure" because of the standards Pep himself set. Before Pep arrived, getting as many points as we did in La Liga, winning three/four trophies and reaching the CL semis (being eliminated in a very narrow tie) would be considered a great season. We expect to...

How can people be saying for sure that Messi won't win the CL? It's impossible to say how the minds of more than 500 people (the voters) will be swayed by last week's events... We'll have to wait and see, but I think he will win it again, especially if he beats Muller's record.

The reactions in this thread are a disgrace. So just because we lost the league and the Champions League this season, it suddenly erases everything Pep has done at this club. He has won 13 of his first 16 trophies, did more in 3 years than most managers do in a lifetime. Not to mention that even...

If it's true, it's a great deal for Benfica. Gaitan is a very good player, but no way is he worth 20 million (+2 players). Only one Benfica player could be worth such amount and that's Axel Witsel. 20 million for Gaitain would be great business for Benfica. He has basically been a poorer...

Indeed, breaking Muller's record would be legendary. Who cares about the pichichi and Golden Shoe? Those two must be the most overrated awards ever; you just need to look at the list of past winners to see its lack of significance. Does anyone think that the likes of Mario Jardel and or Dudu...

He should stay at Arsenal, out of loyalty if nothing else. After his great season, he might feel that he deserves a club with higher ambitions, but for many years Arsenal probably also "deserved" a better striker, namely one who could actually play an entire season, and they sticked with him...

Yes. I don't think Messi is obsessed with top scorer awards. If he were, he'd not be so generous with his assists (see for instance his assist to Pedro vs Zaragoza, he could perfectly have tried to score himself). Each year, he's trying to surpass himself and set higher benchmarks, nothing else.

When you're as good as he is - one of top athletes in the world's biggest sport - you're entitled to be a bit arrogant. Very few elite sportsmen are known for their humbleness.
