Nothing new for Mourinho. When his team wins it's because he's the greatest, when he loses he blames it on anything else he could possibly come up with.

I don't know, we'll see what Lucho does. I don't think he's gonna give up the idea as easily as the fans, but the fans will naturally go mental when they see Mathieu starting as a LB.

I think people are being too harsh with Mathieu at LB. He's not used to it yet, but he's got the skillset to do well there. I recall people thinking Abidal at CB was terrible back when Pep tried it, but after a few shaky games he became rock solid as a CB.

Any chance Grimaldo might play?

About time he received some official recognition.

1-1 vs Atletico wasn't nearly as painful as the 2-2 vs Espanyol considering we lost the title to Real Madrid in the latter. At least we didn't lose it to Real Madrid in 2014. Also the manner in which we lost it was way worse in 2007.

I don't see anything wrong with what he said. If he could go back and change things, he'd rather live a normal life than be put under the spotlight and abused every time he makes a mistake. It's not an uncommon sentiment among famous people. Oh, and fuck Van Gaal.

2-2 vs Espanyol in 2007.

The entire top half of La Liga is probably better than some of the teams in Champions League, so what? You think the 10th best team in Spain deserves to be in Champions League ahead of the champions of the smaller leagues? The current format is perfectly fine. More interesting matchups from the...

I think he wants to give off a tough guy image. Not ever gonna work though.

Good job, you're learning. Repeat it ten times when you wake up, ten times before you go to bed.

On another note, reading the first few pages of this thread is making me nostalgic. He came outta nowhere and broke everyone's expectations.

Does he slip every other minute, though?

Typical off-season.

Didn't Bale have his best season as a free-roaming central role at Tottenham?

Simeone isn't like Mourinho at all. He has some hot-headed outbursts during matches but he's got great sportsmanship, never says anything childish in the manner of Mourinho and always respects his opponents.

If Messi, Iniesta, or Xavi acted like clowns on the pitch and got made fun of for it then I'm sure it would be funny.

To be fair, that is hilarious. And as great of a player as Ronaldo is, some of his antics are ridiculous and deserve to be made fun of.

Oh. Ok I'm on it
