For the Argentinians, just how good is javier pastore? I've been hearing about for some time now...

Bordeaux won ligue 1, marseille came second and thus breaking the lyon dominance of france (finally!). In other news, saint ettiene didnt get relegated, congrats xophien xDDDD

Btw, lohnt "for the small teams like bayern" xDDDD

He's a Riquelme/Lucho González kind of player, talented but slow and apathetic. Some european team'll probably buy him in several millions and regret the decision shortly after.

How old is he? cos i've heard that name thrown around a few times but didnt bother to check it out...

 

[blai]

idk if this count for this thread but my team won with 7-0 on my fantasy football league jay

 

[digitaldude]

*celebrates with Blai*
oh yeah!

That match sucked really badly, as soon as eto scored that goal in the 10th minute man u were out of it.

You laugh, because deep down you know it's true. I don't care how many goals they score, they haven't really accomplished anything lately.

I've also lost a little bit of respect for the Budesliga since Greek teams keep kicking German teams in the knickers every time we play.

Quick comment:

Adriano, the Emperor - 1 game, 1 goal

 

[Imperium]

Goals of the season, slightly anglo-centric since its is an english paper. But a good lineup i'd say

 

[goldb]

1st goal was amazing, had a zidan-esque feel to it... the way gourcuff just moved the ball..., very good line up...

 

[Lelo]

totally, who could've picked it?
guess barca are the best in the world
....should've been chelsea lol

thats going to haunt us for a while, Barca should not have been in the finals. Barca f**ked the EPL by taking out Chelsea the way they did and then beating ManU. If you look at the first 10 mins of that game we were on fire, we had 5 shots on goal already, until Barca took its first shot on goal and made it 1-0, and we still got some good shots after but that first goal threw us way off. Now we wait to see who stays and who goes for ManU

He's 19.

 

[goldb]

wow, ok no wonder he's turning eyes, seems all good footballers are getting attention at a younger age than a decade+ ago

 

[Lohnt]

The first goal is pretty sick I have to give that one my vote.

 

[blai]

Yeah the first one was cool like shit!

Perez has been elected, pellegrini is coach, and they are about to sign kaka. Galactico's mark II.

Its actually quite amusing, if the do buy villa, ribery, kaka, alonso it would be so like them. The hardly have what could be considered a defence and they go and buy attackers. They're rightback has been rubbish the whole season (although is still a good player) and the less said about the left side, the better. Central defence is made up of a psycho, an incredibly slow lumbering german, and a guy who is on his way out. They just conceded six goals at home to their rivals and they go and buy attackers! Bloody hell, are they expecting to win their next encounter with barcelona 7-6? >___>;

 

[goldb]

lol alright calm down Blai; so Gourcuff is getting most votes, so how about top 3?

1. Gourcuff
2. Torres
3. Simon Cox/Eduardo

loool I guess so! I don't want to jump to conclusions before they finish their shopping, but if they dont reinforce the defense they're doomed. Still, it makes us wonder... with Ribery, Kaka, Villa, Silva and Robben... Nistelrooy... that'd be an interesting attack

 

[blai]

Lol goldb, I'm calm, don't worry :-p

'n the top 3 's just 'bout it!

 

[goldb]

So...anyone believe this £56 Millions transfer of Kaka to Real Madrid will go through? seems like it's getting there, and apparently they've still not given up on Cristiano Ronaldo

 

[Starzen]

I dont think kaka would go there after refusing to go to manchester city. Ronaldo might go to madrid though.
