Might as well buy Lahm to complete the Galacticos super-team. Carvajal is probably the weakest link at RB.

^Care to explain you opinion as to why you feel that way?

Compared to other squads come 2016 that lineup doesn't look that promising to me...

plus Oxlade at CAM just proves there are no playmakers

Sorry I think you might have misunderstood me. I'm in no way saying that team will win the Euros I'm trying to saying to me I would be really happy to see what that team could do in this year over persisting with the Rooney's Milner's Lampard's and Gerrard's like we have in the past regardless of the outcome. It isnt a club team, Roy can only put out what we have and those players all have alot of promise especially if he tries to play on the counter.

Its a step in the right direction nowhere am I crowning them future champions.

It'd be even better if it meant my gunners could get the class Benz at emirates as a result... Won't happen ( RM too greedy and Wenger too stubborn) but a man can dream

Who knows, Wenger would probably make that deal for Benzema, we all know how he covets his Frenchmen. If Joel Campbell was French he would have been starting 3 years ago

Quick not though. Joel just got his English work permit this summer, he couldn't come back before now so thats why he was on lone for the last 3 years,, but that doest excuse why he hasn't gotten a run out thus far when at times our attack has seemed void of ideas and lacking pace.

I don't understand you sometimes, Florentino.

Kalouinho signs for Hertha Berlin.

Hmmmmmm, don't know how I feel with City in a group with Bayern, Roma and CSKA. On paper we should be 2nd in the group but Roma can probably give us some problems and games in Russia can definitely go both ways.

Tired of all these half assed games in the CL. I rather have City go to the semi's or finals than win the BPL again. SRS. Give it to Chelsea if we can show Europe we bout that life. I'm tired of getting washed in European competition. We have shown we have the talent to win the BPL but when it comes to the CL we lose to teams like Sporting Lisbon and Ajax.

 

[SamKQboro]

A: juve, atl

Is Jermaine Pennant still playing?

 

[tomdiginson]

Nope. From what I remember, both he and the club mutually parted ways.

We handled CSKA despite the dodgy pitch away last season and took all 6 points. Roma looks good on paper but they are replacing their best defender and have a lot of newcomers to try and bed in. We are also stronger now despite the CL restrictions. We should honestly be shooting for 1st as we are familiar with Bayern/CSKA.

Speaking of Roma, looks like they have snaked Rabiot last minute from Arsenal. Rudi Garcia has wanted him since his days at Lille.

Chief oompa loompa has been dropped from the Spanish squad for this go around as was Mata & El Nino...

I was tempted to select Roma over City in Group E. We all know their well-documented struggles in European competition. Although slightly better under Pellegrini compared to his former, Mancini.

Defensively, Roma has a potentially young starlet in Romagnoli. Rudi Garcia was giving him more first-team action at 19, in the second-half of last campaign. Adequate centrally and also at outside-back. Roma also signed Manolas away from the Greek giants. Beat out Spurs and other Premier League clubs for his services.
