I think Rijkaard might get the job but only if Barca can lure Mourinho there to replace him. But Chelsea will probably get Hiddink. Like you said, Abramovich might as well be paying him to manage Chelsea instead.

Mourinho is too aggressive for a club like Barca
 
Im sure Abramovic will want Rijkaard. Whether he gets him or not, as you say, will depend on the champions league.


Hope they get someone because Grant has done enough this season to prove to me that he's not worth worrying about in terms of contending for major honors, can you imagine how exciting the premiership would have looked before Sunday if it was Fergurson vs Mouriniho vs Wenger? Would have been an intense end to the season.

Valencia has completely lost it, I'm listening to The Times - The Game podcast. It's unbelievable what's happening to them.
Liverpool should raid that club for Joaquin and Vicente.
 
There's a pretty high chance United will win the trophy at Stamford Bridge. I think I'd enjoy that....yes, I'd enjoy that very much.
 
Like I said, I hope it will be Grant still next season. I don't think it matters too much who is at the helm though. I blame the team rather then the manager tbh. It's not like they were playing amazingly before he took over either. He's managed to get them to the semi's of the champions league (easy run) and he's got them back into second place. Hell, before Arsenal Birmingham pushed Arsenal's self destruct button (safely tucked away in Eduardo's shin) they didn't look like ending up close at all. Really, he's done better then what I expected of Chelsea this season.


I'm not saying Grant is a good manager btw, he's pretty poor.

I didn't say anyone was celebrating, I said congratulating, which was happening. Both here and on TV, where they've been talking about Chelsea being out of the title race.
Sorry I was talking to Ryck.

So on Betfair now.

Man Utd 1.06
Chelsea 16
Arsenal 600

I'm not sure I understand how Chelsea drawing has lengthened Arsenal's odds, a lot of people backing Utd presumably. Unfortunately I didn't check the odds just before the end of the game, I don't want any changes to be ruined for me though when I'm watching on a delayed stream.
 
I told the man utd fans at work yesterday that Wigan would at least draw at Chelsea.

Gah, i need to start betting on some of this crap!

David Silva please.

You know, Kane and Lynch isn't that bad.

so whats going on at valencia anyway, other than losing a lot?

"Saturday night's truly hopeless home defeat to Racing Santander was Valencia's third in a row, leaving Ronald Koeman with an appalling record of just eighteen points won from sixty-three - a tally that would have the team in the deepest of do-do had his predecessor, Quique Sánchez Flores, not picked up six wins in nine before being given the boot by the Mestalla mad men.

Yet Ronald Koeman still survives.

This is mainly thanks to their booty-saving Copa del Rey run and the fact that it would cost the club a good nine million euros to dispense with the services of the disastrous Dutchman.

And this is cash the club no longer has due to the vast amounts blown willy and very much nilly on the likes of the unused Nikola Zigic over the past twelve months.

To fully explain what has happened at Valencia this season, would probably require an army of think-tanks and more bandwidth than the internet possesses. Especially when Banega is logged on.

But, as usual, the root cause of their rankness has been behind the scenes boardroom battles. "

For the rest read!

Che:lolski.

Wigan have really improved under Bruce 3 points from Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal this season never would have happened in previous years.

And... now I have completely nothing to do at 1am.

Villa isn't as good as Torres.

And oso, you're in luck. I know North carribean spanish, is that good enough? Or is this just south carribean. Rat eaters, the lot of you.

Wow Valencia is pretty fucked up, and wth is with the fans.

You won in the Copa de rey plz stay Koeman your awesome oh shit I forgot we're nearly relegated off with your head.
And the boardroom is more fucked up than ours, congrats on that.

I'm awake because I had a dream that a spider was on my foot, I even tried to kick it away for reals, stupid jolt now I'm wide awake.

I remember waiting up seeing a spider on my pillow and freaking out but it was all in my head. :(

Scared the shit out of binty. :lol

But I usually do that as sometimes my chest gets a sharp pain when I'm about to sleep so I bolt up right and she usually has the heart attack. :lol
 
I hate it when I have a cold and can't breath through my nose.

most. uncomfortable. nights. evah.

Yay I'm getting tired replaying a Chelsea match in my head. \(^_^)/
 
Ugh, Kirkland didn't get a single bonus point for his display against Chelsea. I promise not to rant about it again this year*, but I despise this bonus point thing. A panel of supposed experts decide it, but they consistently make terrible decisions, and you can't really anticipate it when picking your team, unless you happen to think like a retard too. I don't have a rpoblem with Joe Cole and Scharner getting bonus points (though not the 3, which is clearly Kirkland's), but Taylor? wtf did he do?

I'd like to stick with this fantasy league next year, it's been a lot better than the yahoo one, but if anyone comes up with one largely the same but without arbitrarily assigned bonus points handed out by the mentally infirm, I'm defecting. Fucking idiots.

*possibly
 
it's the Window Shopper beat from the 50 Cent movie OST. The original was better :lol

I dunno if there's a more dangerous left footed crosser of the ball in the world. There's not in the Premiership anyway, as far as I'm concerned. It's just a shame City don't have better strikers to attack those crosses. Also has a vicious shot, from freekicks or just open play. Good for £4.7m...but he is 29. Still, that's really the only thing that counts against him. Some City fans say he disappears in some games, and maybe he does, but in the City games I've seen this season (quite a lot), he hasn't.
He "disappears" because the offense is asymmetrical and defenses learned to skew against City's left. I'm pretty sure I've made this point before, so stop trying to make us look like poor observers, plz.

lol, I'm staying as far away from that as possible. 20 to life for that shit!
That's what they all say. I bet even the guys at the IRS are crooked as fuck.

If you've made it to me, I don't remember it, not that that'd change the fact that other City fans say it.

Nor did I suggest you're poor observers, I said I've never seen him disappear, but he might have in games I haven't seen. You're very defensive.

You too, Karakand.
 
Osorio, you'd be happy to know I smoked someone on Live in PES2008 with Bolton.

I hate everyone online though, they all play as Barca.

I can't play online it's too laggy. But I'm proud of you. We should try to play sometime.

yeah the lag is absurd at times. I love playing South Americans, their connections are terrible. I think they actually took a step backwords in 2008 with the net code. It's attrocious.
