Year Round The Football/Soccer Thread v2

[jorped]

So glad to see mourihno lost lol. I really don't like that guy (as I have said many times before) and I don't think he has as much professionalism as someone in his position should have. Unfortunately I could not watch the game though (was driving at the time).... It really is good to see barcelona still has that much of an edge over real madrid, unfortunately it was not a 5-x result lol. What formation did mourihno used this game? They usually defended quite well against barca (only reason they were not butt raped in a couple past games was because the guy switched to a defensive game). Or where they actually foolish enough to go head to head in a offensive game against barca?

I didn't like, obviously this result. Real has Portuguese players, and a Portuguese coach, so for now i will support Real Madrid. If Barcelona is the best team ? Obviously. But don't like this result at all. Once again Barça managed to show a lot more football than Real's. And it sucks. If Real can't stop Barça, who can ???
And when someone does, what normally happens? I won't be even go this way, but teams like Chelsea, Arsenal and even my team Porto, were victim of those "injustices". I think Mourinho didn't do well using Coentrão at the right, cuz he is "left-foot", and his performance was obviously less consistent, than if he was on his natural side. But Real problem, was on the mield field, they weren't able of controlling it, so Barça easily stopped their attacks, and when that happens, it's going to be really difficult for any team to win again Barça.
Amazing performance of Iniesta. Really awesome player. Lets hope that Real is able to beat Barca in the Champions. Yeah, i am positive, that they will find each other.

This is Ronaldo's and Mourinho's year

That's weird, I thought Coentrão was amongst the best performers for RM that night , maybe the best

Van Persie's goal in the weekend anyone?

Glad to see Man City lose last night to Chelsea, not because I don't like them( cos God knows how much I hate Chelsea) but it's now made the league a bit more interesting now that everyone has at least lost a match. I still have my money on them for the league.

 

[kakashi919]

I hate Chelsea and both Manchester clubs, but I'm glad Chelsea won for the same reason. I'm still hoping Liverpool can pull off a miracle and win every single last of their games lol. Now that City have lost, Juventus is the only unbeaten team left, that I'm following. Go Juve!!!

Van Persie's goal in the weekend anyone?

Just saw this one that's too much balance & elegance for one guy

Go Millwall

It wouldn't be that difficult for him to be one of the best of Real Madrid on that game
He wasn't bad but he is definitely a lot better at the left side.

Van Pierse's goal was definitely good. Only someone really skilled can do that so naturally. Hope he keeps with the goals, cuz so far he has been doing an amazing performance.
And glad that Chelsea won. With AVB i will always support them. He is an awesome coach

 

[kakashi919]

That RVP goal was like something out of FIFA2012
Maybe I should put him on my fantasy team now xD

So Sunday at 10:30 GMT : Barcelona vs Santos ... I think it'll be good.

 

[Saintz0r]

At the very least we'll see lots of goals

 

[ErosVp]

At the very least we'll see lots of goals

Santos will have to do something with that defence of theirs if they want to beat Barça....

That injury to David Villa was horrific, looked like a compound fracture

Spoiler: Don't watch if you're queasy

 

[kakashi919]

Yeah, but it's just a broken shin. He'll return in 4-5 months.

Just a broken shin?

Well yeah, if he's a quick healer he shouldn't have any problem being fit for Euro 2012. It does hurt Barca's depth at forward though.

Well I meant that it could have been worst lol. Like shattered or something.

If it was a shattered bone at a joint, definitely. It would take him getting hit by a bus to shatter a shin bone though...pretty hard to do that playing soccer. He'll get a bar or some screws in his leg down there and it'll work out most likely.

kakashi919 is a good joker
And whether it hurts or not Barca ... lately Alexis took his place in the Starting team, so I'm worried more about Alexis (if he'll make it or not against Santos).

Porto against City already on this phase of the Europe League. It will be an much more interesting game than most of the CL. I really don't see any really exciting at the CÇ apart from Milan vs Arsenal and Napoli vs Chelsea.

And french teams have been so lucky. If things keep this way, they are going to get much more points than us, and maintain their 5º position on the rank, that allows them to have 3 teams (in the max) to be able to reach the groups phase of the CL.

I think this is much likely stupid ... but things always seem to go well for France and not for the Portuguese's teams.
Platini .... you bastard

 

[kakashi919]

Leverkusen vs Barca should be good.
Though Real Madrid have a much stronger team, I still hope Moscow can knock them out. They're my Shalcke for this UCL
Napoli is gonna beat Chelsea...sorry but I don't see Chelsea beating them.

As for Europa... Man Utd vs Ajax
It's quite satisfying seeing Man Utd in there :Xd
Stoke got Valencia, that should be a good game. Go Kenwyn!

It will be boring as hell. Leverkusen doesn't stand a chance at all.
Napoli isn't going to beat Chelsea. Only if Cavani is extremely inspired.

 

[kakashi919]

You really underestimate teams.... This is knockout stages, against a hungry german team. This isn't going to be boring, trust me. Napoli is playing better football than Chelsea is at the moment, and a as a certain someone said, they have heart and passion
