    Mats Hummels

    I don't think Bartra is a sub. I think he's a future starter and will prove that next season. he has bags of confidence & ability, and unlike Fontas is the kind of aggressive CB we need when El Capi & Badger aren't playing.

    Mats Hummels

    we aren't signing Hummels ffs. Piqué, Mascherano, Puyol are 3 top-notch CB options. Abidal can also play there. and then we have Fontas (who Pep likes) and Bartra (who is awesome) coming through. and behind them there's Muniesa and Gomez. just don't see it.

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    the United players were asked to testify what Evra said to them, not what Suarez said to Evra. and considering he spoke to them seperately and they were asked their questions some time after the events occurred, the vagueness of their testimony is understandable. also irrelevant to the event...

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    and finally, just for Nolan: In Uruguay and other areas of Latin America, some people who self-identify as black object to the use of the word "negro" as a term of address, as they say it highlights skin colour when this should be irrelevant; they point out that the term "blanco" [white] is 46...

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    they have everything but 100% conclusive proof. if this was a movie, Suarez would be the bad guy who gets away with it because there's no 100% conclusive proof, even though everyone knows he's guilty. reading the report, it's staggeringly obvious he's guilty. I'm amazed anyone can come to a...

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    he was branded a racist because Real Madrid released an excellent bit of propaganda to make him look like one. no one gave a fuck about Marcelo's testimony (private, late, probably coerced & never remarked upon again). it was all about the video, which was so magnificently manipulated that...

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    so first it was "he didn't say anything!! Evra made it up!" then it was "he said something, but it wasn't an offensive term!" then we had "he said something, but he didn't know it was racist!" and then "the ban is ridiculous! it's a conspiracy!" and now we have "there's no proof beyond...

    firstly: the Busquets case was nothing like this one. there we had a player and club who said nothing about racism for a week after the event despite complaining about everything else imaginable - it was part of a massive smear campaign against us. who presented doctored evidence to UEFA (the...

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    Mr Suarez spoke in Spanish to Mr Comolli soon after the game about this serious allegation. Mr Suarez also spoke in Dutch to Mr Kuyt. Both Mr Comolli and Mr Kuyt understood Mr Suarez to have told them that when he spoke to Mr Evra he said words which translate into English as, "Because you are...

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    the Independent Commission's Documentation In the goalmouth, Mr Evra and Mr Suarez spoke to each other in Spanish. Mr Evra asked Mr Suarez why he had kicked him, referring to the foul five minutes previously. Mr Suarez replied "Porque tu eres negro", meaning "Because you are black". Mr Evra...

    Andy Carroll

    no it didn't. I wish it did. but no, it didn't even come close. sure, in terms of the fee alone it's much worse, especially as he helped us win a League Title, but when you look at the wage situation and how much that actually cost us? even though we cut our losses after a year? woof. read...

    Andy Carroll

    Andrew Thomas Carroll is a BEAST. Liverpool are just fucking retarded and have a team that is ill-suited to using him. they play fast on-the-deck football with lots of positional interchange; but he's a classic #9 who, although he can move more than you'd think, is not capable of playing such...

    Xavi's about to turn 32, so that won't happen. Messi and Piqué, however, are 24. so as long as we keep on being awesome, there's a very good chance they'll surpass Giggs.
