Wow I just skimmed through a laughable USA today article calling for European football to have a European super league regular season and playoffs

I knew it would be bad when it started with saying "unless you live in Madrid, you probably aren't looking forward to this years final."

[Coupé It]

Lil Psk > Smalling and Phil Jones

Start splurging United!

 

[ROYGBiV]

Have a feeling my dude Benatia is going to Barca

20 million + Lukaku? 

 

[eiddyfouw]

Before the window closes, I fully expect to hear you saying you want 100 milli for Mangala.

You're probably right amigo lol.

But seriously man 48 million quid? For david Luiz? No god damn sense.

Mangala is a better CB than him , no doubt so he should go for more than. If the market for Luiz is that much than Porto should take notice and wait for a more ridiculous offer.

Transfer market is skewed because of inflation, Sheikh's and Oligarch's

Don't like QPR... don't like Joey Barton... but it would be nice to see old 'Arry back in the Prem. 

Not really fussed who wins though.

Ain't got crap in San Francisco, got to go down to San Jose for the Portuguese stuff. All Im settling for is super bock and sagres before I head to the bar I frequent in north beach which is a huge Italian community. But I'll have my portugal flag. The got dinner reservations at a Catalan restaurant tonight.

Is the Ronaldo shirt a slim fit? Alot of the Nike soccer tshirts are slim fit and I hate slim fit so there's a bunch of portugal shirts I missed out on because of the fit.

 

[Beans]

speaking of portugal.. just got back yesterday from Faro, Portugal... such an amazing experience.. hidden gem of europe. Everything was super cheap

 

[champcruthik]

20 steaks, 10 bottles of wine, 3 cases of beer.

A por la Decima.

HAPPY REAL MADRID DAY

TODAY WE PARTY

 

[eiddyfouw]

I genuinely hope today is a 4-3 match....

As a Ronaldo fan, I would love to see him lifting another trophy...but I also want to see Atleti win, it would be an amazing end to a great story.

Either way....I want amazing goals....

Nervioso. Fearful of losing by one goal or even worse in PK's.

The year RM lost to Bayern and Ramos moon-balled it, I didn't speak to anyone for 4 days.

 

[eiddyfouw]

How on earth did Austin miss that?!?!

 

[Beans]

Game is getting better...

 

[eracism]

If RM can defend the set pieces, I am confident. That's the only thing that troubles me.

 

[eiddyfouw]

Well I guess that's that.

Welcome back QPR....

 

[firepower]

Fairytale goal from Bobby! 

 

[venom lyrix]

 

[dlo13]

Oof.
Bum *** Bobby Zamora too... :\

Now I'm mad that CFC already sold Luiz. QPR would have given us $75M probably.

Bet they sign Ashley Cole.

 

[eiddyfouw]

I genuinely though Derby would nick a goal back there...

 

[eiddyfouw]

Damn...this is the 2nd time in Zamora's career that he's been the match winner in the Championship final playoff...
