Of Milan? God I hope not, he'd promote that useless brother of his and make him captain. Pippo or Billy Costacurta for manager.

God yes! I love Pirlo, but the way everyone goes on you would think Italia is a one man team. Its Montolivo coming into the side over Motta which has improved our play immensely. I think if he plays and Italia have that triangle of Marchisio, Montolivo and Pirlo, getting a good amount of...

Hope Barca do sign him. Mino is his agent, Milan would get him for half the price a year later. :troll:

Aren't you Spanish?

Nesta and Silva both gone? Hiya no CL spot. Good price though, I wouldn't have a problem with this deal if I thought even half would go towards new signings...

It would indeed, and I know they won't play as good as that vs either, but am hopeful of a dive and converted free kick from Pirlo or something to win.

Giaccherini was really quite poor, the space he gave Navas towards the end was terrifying. But I like him, and with Juve he is more reliable, I think he can be forgiven as suffering a bit of stage fright, I wouldn't replace him just yet.

Well I hope so, freeing up De Rossi I think will get the best out of Marchisio and allow for that dud Motta to be benched. Other than that though I just hope Di Natale starts next to either Cassano or Balotelli, I don't like both playing together at all really, needs a better finisher and target...

But remember, 'Ireland and Croatia have nothing to fear from Italy'. Its all well and good Italia playing like that against the best team in the world, but I can really see why Ireland can square up to them and throw caution to the wind and confident of the victory to follow.

Gutted to hear this. Preciado was a larger than life character, very much appreciate his time in Asturias. Watching his team shut out Perez's second Galacticos was a sight I will cherish all the more now, especially him going ballistic at a late misplaced shot from Billic in what was already a...

Very underrated for his technical ability.

And the Diagonal Mar/Besos is? The other scheme is utterly terrible in every way. For a start, the biggest issue with stadium design is access, straight away that thing doesn't even work as you limit access to a single bridge rather than from all sides.

Well said Jordan. Foster's proposal was actually a very smart piece of design, the ability to radically upgrade and expand a stadium while not having the team play elsewhere was a master stroke. Rosell's dropping it as part of his financial scare mongering tactics was a big negative for the club...

Except for the continued British occupation of 6 counties with a minority of supplanted English settlers and a militarized force.

Ryan is obviously easily shocked. The president of the Madrid community has an affiliation with Real Madrid, mind blowing!

Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. The women has expressed a concern about disrespect to the anthem and king, not re-in acted the law banning Catalan language. And she has a point given what happened the last time these clubs played in this final. And you know what, as much as I...

El Depor es de Primeeraaaaaaaa!!!!!!!! DIOS!

Barcelona aren't even the best team in Spain anymore, let alone the world. And as much as you would like to snub Chelsea, they did beat you and emphatically so in the end, Barca certainly have no room to doubt their title of champions.

I agree with everything here, except the amount of credit attributed to Di Matteo. I like the guy alot, but the fact is he wasn't really behind this, the situation was alot like France in 06 - senior players pulling the strings. Now am not saying Roberto is a total moron like Dom Dom, but he was...

Yep, meanwhile hundreds of thousands of indignados gather across town in Puerta del Sol to protest at the country falling a part. Put in context, RM's lavish celebrations for the achievement of spending .5B+ to finally gain a title they have a 50/50 shot at anyway, looks really very ridiculous.
