    Penal Madrid

    Reports saying that Alfredo Di Stéfano passed away :( Goodbye legend.

    Arjen Robben

    Well I dunno if it's solely about the vomit because there are other equally plausible reasons. Off the bat we have to remember how lazy and pedestrian Barca's season was as well as Tata's playground training sessions. Not a single Barcelona player aside from Alexis has been playing at an...

    Arjen Robben

    Robben is perpetually active, far more than Messi is. He's not as good, not as efficient, not as creative, etc. But still, a higher level of activity from the team's most dangerous/best player easily improves the team's overall attacking output (a big reason why Netherland's attack looks more...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    Demichelis, Biglia, and even Basanta to an extent really solidified Argentina's defense to proper KO tournament quality (at least seemingly). It'll be an extremely tough ask to contain the Dutch who are used to scoring several goals per game (and would've today if it weren't for Navas and...

    Gonzalo Higuain

    A worthy MOTM, hope he continues this way next game with Di Maria and Messi at full force behind him.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v3

    Went on twitter to see if there was any update about Di Maria, and already there are twitter-folk bashing Messi for not scoring in round of 16 or quarters :horse:

    Ángel Di María

    Any news about Di Maria's injury?? Much needed to get energy out of this Argentina side and to make sure Messi doesn't get deployed in BS positions.

    Higuain? :pep:

    Juan Camilo Zuniga

    8 months is roughly a season. Tackles in the back don't happen every other match but this did not even have the same level of force as the kind of studs up tackles that you do see quite commonly to knees or ankles.

    Juan Camilo Zuniga

    Name one place where I said it was unintentional or an accident. I said the injury itself was a matter of circumstance (not that I expect you to understand the difference between the two). But yeah, let's hand out season long bans for the kind of rough play that happens every other match.

    Juan Camilo Zuniga

    Way to read 2 lines out of the whole post, not gonna bother explaining to someone who only sees things as black and white.

    Juan Camilo Zuniga

    Yeah I'm pretty sure he didn't go "oh look, there's Neymar. I'm losing and angry therefore I'm gonna go kick him in the spine". But sure, invent your own narrative why not? He lunged at Neymar in an overly aggressive and tempered way with his knee raised, a dirty and cynical foul and an...

    Juan Camilo Zuniga

    What the hell is this?!?! What Zuniga did was no more brutal than a lot of common dirty tackles that are done game by game (studs up challenges, horrible collisions, etc.) and is not particularly notable in the world of dirty fouls other than for the fact that it caused Neymar to get injured...

    Daniel Alves

    You sir, belong in the hall of fame alongside other legends such as: dalitis, Gareth Bale, Ketoth, etc.

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    :lol: A sports psychologist I understand since they pretty much act like coaches and guide players on how to react to different situations and circumstances on the pitch (or just dealing with stresses). A psychiatrist, as KingMessi said, would indicate that the club consider him mentally ill and...

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    Dunno how he'd respond to that. I don't think a player with a superstar ego will take too kindly to his new club essentially calling him a nutter

    9 - Luis Suárez - v1

    Is that a decision post-appeal or have they not decided whether they'll shorten it and/or change the parameters of the ban?

    Marquinhos

    IIRC it turned into a mall? Edit: Galning already said it :p

    Gerard Deulofeu

    There's enough playing time to go around for 5 players (especially now that Cesc is no longer here to take up the minutes of our forwards). Deulofeu gets plenty of playing time during preseason and will get his fair share of chances during Suarez's ban. That's not even considering how much...
