    La Liga 2018/19

    I don't recall all the remaining league fixtures of all 3 teams but I am quite sure that both RM and Atlético have quite a few more difficult games on paper. Not to mention that both are competing in the CL as well, there not being any easy games in the best league in the world and them simply...

    Matthijs de Ligt

    Not looking good yet again. This time against the mighty Heracles who are up 1-0 against Ajax.

    Bundesliga

    What a pathetic defensive display. Throwing 3 secure points away in 20 minutes time up 3-0 at home against a mediocre Hoffenheim team. I was hoping that a club not called Bayern Munich would win the title this season (at last) but there is no way that this is going to happen if Dortmund keeps...

    La Liga 2018/19

    Missed the game but suspected that Patético would lose. I always stated, throughout the season, even when they were fairly close to us, that this season's version of Patético could not be a threat to us long-term. Back to RM being the main rival in the league. Anyway I don't see us losing the...

    La Liga 2018/19

    I have a feeling that RM will win the derbi madrileño tomorrow and "officially" become our biggest competitor in the league title race as they have always been subconsciously. At least for me. Patético is Patético after all. Anyway better a 8 point lead than a 6 point lead so I would not mind...

    Basketball/NBA

    Just watched the entire game. Giannis hit the over with 4:20 minutes left of the fourth quarter. What is even better, I went all in with the quite substantial profit that I have made in the past few days betting live (BET365) on Giannis scoring LESS than 32.5 points (3.0) halfway into the third...

    Arthur

    I prefer to look at unfortunate incidents and negative news in a positive light as much as that is possible. Arthur's 3-4 week long injury is obviously going to impact the team negatively as he was our most in-form midfielder (by far) but the injury could have come at a worse time. We have a...

    Basketball/NBA

    That is what I am was writing. We need at least 1 star to accompany Lebron if not 2. Competing for the Lakers nowadays is first of all reaching the playoffs. That can be done this year if the team gets their act together and plays like they are capable of. Even if Kawhi had moved to us the past...

    João Félix

    Glad that I skipped that bet and settled for the Marseille away win (1.85) against Dijon! Horrible football, horrible performance by Porto and horrible pitch. Benfica must be really bad this season for this Porto team to be 3 points ahead. Most likely less after the game ends in 10 minutes.

    I don't even think that Toronto will make the Eastern Conference Finals. They are notorious bottlers and both Bucks and Philly are better teams IMO. Once Davis or another superstar joins the Lakers, the second superstar addition would be easier to get and Lakers as a franchise would become even...

    Samuel Umtiti

    Fantastic news! I suspected a return of his soon after reading that article above. Hopefully he won't have any relapses this season and will slowly gain momentum and match fitness. No need to throw him out there immediately. Our chances of actually winning the CL this season just rose with at...

    Colombia

    :lol: How am I not surprised? He is one of the most defensive coaches out there. His Iran team was famed for their 1-0 wins. Huge flop in RM as well. Surely Colombia could do vastly better than that?:facepalm:

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    In complete agreement. While I don't like the CL format due to the huge luck factor involved in knockout competitions and random draws, I can't deny, nor the club or fanbase for that matter, that the CL should be the priority this season. A lot will depend on the potential successor of Valverde...

    Ivan Rakitić

    There is absolutely NO WAY whatsoever that Inter of all clubs would pay €90 million for Rakitic. I would be shocked if they paid 1/3 of that fee. They simply don't have the money for that and there is the FFP as well. GdS is bullshitting. We should aim to sell him to the highest bidder if...

    Ernesto Valverde - V1

    Valverde wants to continue as of today until 2020. He has apparently won the dressing room over, Messi respects him a lot and he has a fluid relationship with the board and technical department. https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20190208/46288256873/valverde-quiere-seguir.html

    Basketball/NBA

    Great comeback by us against the Celtics of all teams. However Magic must be smoking some serious shit for us to trade Zubac for freaking Muscala. For free essentially too.:facepalm: If he is not able to recruit at least 1, preferably 2, stars this summer, he should look for other pastures...

    Samuel Umtiti

    https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20190207/46283010199/fc-barcelona-barca-samuel-umtiti.html "I will do everything to be ready to face Lyon". Apparently what he said during an interview to Lyon TV. That he really wants to play in Lyon in front of his old fanbase as well. There...

    Copa 22/23

    Looking forward to the Real Betis-Valencia game tonight. Although I want to see a strong Valencia again challenging for the top 3 if not the league title (ideally), I like Betis and would want to see them make the final as well. Despite that, I think that there will be more "morbo" if Valencia...

    Ibrahima Konaté

    Missed the game yesterday so I have no clue how he performed but he played the entire game, did not receive any cards and helped Leipzig keep a clean sheet. Upamecano has not played for a while. Not sure if he is injured or out of favor or whether he has lost his place in the starting lineup.

    Vinícius Júnior

    See post 79. RM paid €61 million for him in total. €45 million to Flamengo, €8 million to his family and €8 million to his agent(s)). MD wrote a detailed article about it yesterday and how Vinicius' entourage ran away from the deal that they had with us...
