Conte, MAKE HIM CAPTAIN

the true specialists in failure.

Lol, so true. Great defender, but what a cunt.

 

[Sviatoslav]

Barca signed some Russian fetus. You're welcome FootballFan.

 

[Billy Big Bollocks]

Luiz, all over the place.

edit
Looks like he has similar heat maps for Chelsea in some games so I guess it's not that uncommon.

Yes but he was probably playing in midfield in those games!

His world cup was like a summary of his career at Chelsea. Most the time he was great, he has pretty much every attribute you could want in a footballer and he is a character who the fans love but he is prone to fuck ups and when he fucks up his head goes, he forgets he is a defender and tries to win the game by himself.

 

[Blablurn]

Love it

 

[cartoon_soldier]

nnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooo

Honestly losing one of the most important figures in the dressing room.

Wilbur, reports say that he doesn't want to mentor young players or play second fiddle.

Can't keep him around then.

 

[Zabojnik]

I see people around the web are pretending that we witnessed an all-time amazing performance from Germany yesterday and not rather the utter and complete disintegration of one of the worst Brazils in recent history after that first goal. Carry on, then.

Why are you so bitter today?

 

[subtles]

Does Chad (junior staffer in the film 'In The Loop') play any role in 'The Thick of It' or 'Veep'?

What a cunt.

It was an all-time amazing performance. Sure, this defeat has been coming for this Brazil side for a while; they lack any team cohesion and are heavily reliant on Neymar and Thiago Silva.

However saying that, you can't take anything away from the Germans. It was a masterclass in attacking decision making. Khedira, Kroos, Muller and Schweinsteiger were all incredible.

 

[Gambit]

Love it

surprisingly, I like it too. It's charmingly retro.

In other news, finally my dissertation topic has been accepted by the university today. (I've actually never stopped working on it, but the formality of acceptance took forever)

Mm. Germany were very very good. But Brazil were diabolical.

Why are you so bitter today?

I'm not, my dear Bla. You will be though. On Monday.

Soon.

Guardian saying Di Maria and Hummels are primary targets at the moment

Spoiler

presumably because the Vidal deal has already been done.

 

[Yurt]

Lol, so true. Great defender, but what a cunt.

one of the best too, shame.

 

[Wilbur]

Guardian saying Di Maria and Hummels are primary targets at the moment

Spoiler

Setting aside the fact that I don't think we'd get two of the three, Hummels and Vidal would be absolutely dream signings. The best centre midfielder in the world and the second best centre back in the world, imagine.

But I can't see one of them, let alone both of them, prepared to leave their managers and their clubs and Champions League football. That's the big stickler. ADM is on a potential transfer list and seems like he's being forced out, so it's a feasible deal. The other two aren't.

And as much as I like Di Maria, I'd much rather the other two.

 

[Jack cw]

Mes que un club. El cant del Munich.

 

[Wilbur]

No talk of Vidal in that JJ article either, not even a mention. The dream is DEAD

 

[Yurt]

I think it'll be announced in the next few days.

a few hours before we announce Itrube, we always do that.

Juve gets a bad result ---> officially announce a contract extension of [insert someone in contract talks]

kinda like United and their sponsors.

for the last fucking time, Di Maria isnt being forced out by Madrid, he wants out.

And you talk about reading comprehension SMH

Can't believe Di Maria is being forced out. Disgusting by Real.

While United would be expected to propose an initial bid of around £40m, Real’s interest in Monaco’s James Rodríguez, who was Colombia’s star performer in Brazil, means they may be prepared to listen to an offer in the region of £45m for the 26-year-old who is contracted until 2018, having signed a fresh deal two years ago.

Although Di María is happy at the Bernabéu, he came close to leaving the club in January, according to his agent Eugenio Lopez, who claimed a “presidential issue” was causing his prospective sale. His wife also posted an Instagram message in November that said, “And you want to sell him?” after he scored against Galatasary in a Champions League group match.

The fact that you're sniffing around other players in his position may be the reason he wants to leave :lol

Chicken or the egg, baby.

 

[L1NETT]

MK getting all their talented youngsters raided it seems

Alli off to Pool most likely, and Brendan Galloway being nabbed by Everton (with George Green going on loan the other way grrrrrrrrrrrrr)

I know that feel MK

Don't think Di Maria is going to be particularly interested in a team without CL either tbh

 

[3Sixty]

Typical Florentino Perez move.

 

[Shatner's Bassoon]

True. He should move to a club with respect, somewhere like Barcelona.

We were lucky to have them for three years.

So I've changed my mind about Toni "Weltklasse" Kroos. From now on I shall call him Toni Weltklasse Kroos, without the quotation marks. Best german midfielder at the moment, and he's just 24, too. Now I can finally see why he was declared one of germany's biggest talents ever 8-10 years ago. What a great player Real gets.

 

[subtles]

Majestic.

In terms of probability ADM >>> Vidal >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Hummels

All reports say that Hummels doesn't want to leave and his club doesn't want to sell. I doubt we have even put an official bid in for him.

I think the high possibility is of us getting De Jong after WC is over.

Our only chance of Vidal is if we Juve needs money

or were sniffing around other players because he wont stop being a soggy cunt. I insist, his comments on Messi being the best in the world was basically a huge "IM OUTIE" sign

but as you said, chicken or egg. Everything will become clearer when/if he leaves

seriously, it was mostly Brazil being utter shit.

but he was only telling the truth about messi

You are denying that Kroos is great? Bayern's loss is RM's gain. They just got one of the best midfielders around as he enters the prime footballing age.

Are there any other Argentines left? They've all been forced out.

 

[Wilbur]

Wish Reus was in this Germany team as well. They would have scored TEN

I'm a huge fan of Kroos, by the way. Said it for a while now. Would loved to have got him, but LVG pulled out for a reason and I trust Gaallah my saviour

clearly Ander Herrera is the better prospect m8

We don't.

Your only chance is Vidal asking to leave. And it WILL happen, and the king gets what he wants.

 

[Wilbur]

Don't think so. But Higuain's not good enough anyway.

Modric-Kroos-Alonso/Khedira, pls

Khedira was even better than him yesterday, doesn't that make him the best German midfielder then?

I'm delighted with Ander, my love.

The title is lovely, but I think OT1 must be in order now, right?

Or do we reckon we can finish an OT pretty quickly considering how long of the WC is left?

 

[L1NETT]

Did you know A Vaginal Soul is an anagram of Louis Van Gaal

you do now
