[Regulus Tera]

Let me know your team and I'll add you to the list.

Club Deportivo Guadalajara - Regulus Tera

 

[Messi]

Oh well unfortunately almost every team would take Alves, but as a human being, he's basically a piece of shit.

 

[omgkitty]

Eh, wasn't like our team was going anywhere. Sucks losing to Inter Milan of all people, but if we won that probably would've bought Van Gaal another month. Blessing in disguise.

I was so mad when Bayern lost that final. My friend, who's an AC Milan fan of all people, was talking shit to me cause I wanted Bayern to win. So stupid. I even had a Bayern t-shirt on. I guess I wasn't anywhere near upset as you were though.

Sheringham, 99. I stopped being upset a looooong time ago.

 

[omgkitty]

I know you would never admit it, but deep down, I know you truly agree with me.

Agreed. Btw, have you seen the pre-season matches? I'm worried about Robben, he doesn't look as awesome as last two seasons. Imo, it may be related to Lahm switching back to left back position :/

 

[Broder Salsa]

Well fuck it, might as well dump the rest in my folder :

 

[Yurt]

philipe coutiniho, anyone know anything about this guy?

he's really average/poor. He was supposedly going to be their answer to Pato but he's no where near as good. he scored one goal last year.

well, of course- inter are enemy #1 and juve are a minnow team that couldn't even make europe this year, but, as you know, Pirlo was at Inter for a years and even though he didn't play for them (at all?) it still wouldn't sting quite as much.

-_- .. fine I'll bite
While I agree our team last season was really average in the 2nd half of the season, we still managed to beat all the big teams including yours. I'm actually glad we didn't make it into Europe(first time in 20 years), our management deserved this slap to wake them up and now we're being linked to all sorta players.

You should maybe start worrying about your team though, because you need to replace key players by next year.

Sheringham, 99. I stopped being upset a looooong time ago.

That's nothing, WE LOST TWO CL FINALS IN A ROW and one of them to BVB with ex-Juventus players haha !!

Robben won't have Lahm making those overlapping runs giving him more space to make plays. Kind of hurts him, but in theory it should help Ribery out.

 

[K1LLER7]

I'd take ramos over alves, imo he's better defensively.

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

No I haven't watched any of the pre-season stuff.

Robben's probably just coming off some rust, he'll be fine.

 

[Broder Salsa]

He only just turned 19 a month ago, would give him some more time before branding him average/poor even though he hasn't shown too much yet.

Now I am not going to act like I know anything about Juve as I don't watch them, but I was looking through their roster last season and they have the most random group of players on their team I have seen, and waaaaaaay too many players on loan for a supposed top club.

 

[DominoKid]

Well fuck it, might as well dump the rest in my folder :

1. that's quality
2. that's just awkward
3. HE'S SO BRAVE *rolls-eyes*

It was a really average squad yes.

Which brings us to the biggest issue in Juventus right now. Our general manager Giuseppe Marotta is legally mentally retarded :/ He believes in quantity over quality it seems, he loves loaning/buying good players instead of getting 3 or 2 world class players. I'm pretty sure he'll be fired next season if he fails in this transfer window.

 

[Fry]

My team is Liverpool

 

[K1LLER7]

True, seems good on fifa, going to buy him for sheffield united.
Turan - Erikson - Coutiniho

Don't forget to add Mario Gotze to that lineup.

 

[Yurt]

he played 15 games this season and looked really average. Pato was 18 when he scored 15 goals for Milan. And Müller scored 19 goals for Bayern before turning 19!

 

[Verano]

This thread needs more Chico:

playing on legendry difficulty with sheffield united, i'm struggling in the PL and to pay the wages lol. if he comes cheap then maybe, otherwise i'll be using marcus bent

 

[Broder Salsa]

Pato is a striker. Coutinho is a midfielder.

Not to say that wasn't pretty amazing by Pato or that Coutinho had a great season but there has been lots and lots of world class players who didn't bloom until much longer into their careers, I won't be surprised if Coutinho turns out to be a great player in a couple of years. Drogba was not even a regular or had not even signed a pro contract until he was 21 with le mans.

 

[Wessiej]

Everybody knows this will be the next somethingsomething. Eriksen, remember his name, in 3 years he will be one of the best players in Europe, playing for Barcelona.

 

[K1LLER7]

Don't watch much Serie A, so I believe you.
How did pato perform last season? in my opinion, he's the best attacking brazilian player in the national team at the moment still 21/22.

^ Not letting him leave sheffield united ;P

 

[Dark Machine]

They played him as a striker IIRC. Inter's midfield is packed already lol

Pato is deadly, he played less games than Ibra and Robinho but scored just as much.

 

[KidA Seven]

Put me down for United of course.

 

[Wessiej]

Probably true.

 

[K1LLER7]

Fix'd for you good sir.

Don't be greedy, you have poulsen already

 

[Fry]

Can't wait for next season. If our best players, which happen to be injury prone, could be fit for more than half of the season, we already have a big chance of top 4.

 

[Broder Salsa]

That would be a even greater reason not to judge him so soon. But no he played mostly as a left winger.

In other news, Chicha is a Raiders fan. The mexican in him is too strong to not be one.

Would you like Poulson? You can have Poulson! In fact, we're doing a Buy one get one free offer this summer on several players! Can I interest you in Philipp Degen or El Zhar as well? How about Milan Jovanovic?

I'd buy Poulsen off Liverpool if I had the money. He could play in my street team.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Would you like Poulson? You can have Poulson!

He is rumored to here (Copenhagen) and it would be a good player for us to be honest. But the problem is the crazy wages compared to what we can offer, will probably have to take 700% wage cut. Another problem is that we got two great central midfielders so he will either have to ride the bench or play defender, maybe even right back as he started out here as.

Kid is pure class, inventive and deadly from five yards. Who else would have the presence of mind and inventiveness to pop the ball up like that and head it into the bottom corner?

Yeah I remember him playing in the offense. Did you actually watch him play though ? Because I did and I wasn't impressed.

They don't like him in the Inter forums, I think they know more than both of us.

Well IMO if he has any pride as a footballer he should take the cut and go where he'll actually play games. Because he won't get ANY game time at Liverpool with all the midfielders we have ahead of him, Joe Cole's ahead of him right now, that's how bad he is for us.

Yes I did and as I already said in the very first post on him, I wasn't impressed either. That was never my point though which was that he still got lots of time to develop into a class player and there has been lots of other players who showed even less than him at that age who turned out to be brilliant footballers and even though he hasn't impressed it's silly to judge him on his goals when he has barely been playing as a forward.

I agree but he is known for not giving up that easily. Just look at his time in Juventus where he kept on going even though he was completely frozen out of the team at one point.

definitely.

Many wingers score and assist goals !! His role was more of a second striker I think? according to him at least..but anyway, the point is wherever he played he was rather average performance-wise.

haha oh man Poulson. Sorry Liverpool <3 We owe you one.

^ juve linked with a £15 mil move for berbatov.

Yeah I heard about that but it's highly unlikely, because we already have two strikers with similar playing style.

 

[MPW]

Real Madrid will face Galatasaray in the 33rd edition of the Santiago Bernabeu Trophy on Wednesday 24 August. Jose Mourinho's side will defend the title they won last year against Peñarol Montevideo.

i expect arda to put on a show!

Don't worry, it wasn't your fault, it was Old Uncle Woy, who went waaaay back with Poulson, and still thought he was 23 and could actually run and make a fair tackle...

soccer? lol

god damn yanks!

Roy still gets a lot of credit from the management here, he was the one who really set the ground stones for our club and built it up.
