    Oriol Romeu

    incorrect. he never showed any desire to leave because we never showed any intention to buy him back. as soon as we did, he started agitating for a move. if Arsenal were successful the transfer would have been smoother, because they would have been in a better position to bring in a replacement.

    surely the NBA is futbol as a whole? Atlantic: La Liga Southeast: PL Central: Serie A Pacific: Bundesliga etc.

    Unai Emery

    you can't tactically plan for teams that rely on individual spontaneity and creativity. teams that play off the cuff. there's no system to the way Madrid does things, it's all about individualism. and so Emery can't plan a tactic to stop that, and so his side struggles. plus he can be slow to...

    Pedro Rodriguez

    lovely finish but he fluffed two decent chances before that and his overall play wasn't particularly impressive.

    Eric Abidal

    because it makes "small" matches much easier to handle. and even then, we can use it for certain "big" matches. for all the tactical problems today, Valencia's first goal came from a unprovoked individual error (the second was an error because of the tactics, but for the first he had no need...

    Eric Abidal

    I don't think it would have been as disastrous if Piqué had been at CB. a big problem was Puyol was way too slow to get around on the cover, but still tried to do so and always ended up in no man's land helping nothing. so if Mathieu got by Mascherano, he basically had free-reign to cross. and...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v1

    didn't have his shooting boots, but should have won 2 penalties (awful refereeing) and of course his passing was absolutely fantastic. two glorious assists, one another assist denied by Guaita. so unlucky!

    Fifa World Rankings

    how did Spain get back on top? fuck me these rankings are retarded. but yeah, as Nolan says, the top 4 is right.

    Best DM in the last decade?

    the answer is clearly Busquets. :D (or, more seriously, Makelele) not a DM.

    Fernando Torres

    Rio is a superb defender (the best at the club) when he's fit, but that's happening less and less these days so it's best to use him sporadically and run with the younger guys like Jones and Smalling, who are both awesome now and yet also have room to grow. and for now, I'd put Smalling ahead...

    State of La Liga

    which about sums up the whole problem in La Liga right now. Barça and Madrid are demonstrably awesome, and would do this to any league in the World. but that dominance is getting mixed up with the financial inequality issue because these fuckhead presidents use it as an excuse when their team...

    Fernando Torres

    finished isn't the word I'd use. regressed is what I'd say. he looks just like he did at Atleti. magnificent pace, power & technique, and then awful finishing.

    David Silva

    Lil' Dave is butthurt over being "the only victim" of the loss to Switzerland. I lol. he's not as good as Iniesta or Cesc in the middle, nor is he as good as Pedro, Navas, Cazorla or Mata out wide. that's his big problem. he's a phenomenal player, but he's a hybrid. and if VdB wants a #10...

    Radamel Falcao

    the same way several forum members have sympathies beyond Barça. just by doing it.

    Radamel Falcao

    well hang on, I'm not saying Falcao is some Liniker-esque goalpoacher. I'm saying he's like Ruud. and Ruud had a really balanced game, especially when he was younger. he was nothing like the player Henry was, sure, but that didn't mean he was some lumbering fool who could only score. and yeah...

    Wayne Rooney

    no one's as good as Messi, Xavi or Iniesta. (except maybe Cesc teehee) and anyone who tries to place Rooney on Messi's level is fucking retarded and should be slapped with a wet haddock. but you can compare him to Cristiano. definitely. not before, but since he's starting playing regularly as...
