FOOTBALL THREAD (the real football not that american crap)

[Gnjus]

So the last two playing legends retire at the same time, first Zanetti and now Giggs. Reminds me of this classic match from 15 years ago that I watched at my friends place while we were playing football manager: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qm_CCoi44kM

I was so disappointed that day. Best defense ever beaten like that, one of the best players ever missing a penalty.........

Looks like Chelsea have landed Costa.

And if you get Fabregas as well, i will very dissapointed in Arsene. Chelsea will win the league with these two signings.

Fabregas is rubish, I hope he never returns. If Wenger wants to blow some big money on Spaniard midfielder, better sign Koke.

agree fabregas never became what people excpected.

erm you know its a group stage and not strait knockout right?

Yea, but as an American who enjoys "futbol", I am always praying that the US goes far. It would help so it would get media attention and bring hype to the sport here. Which only consists of, in order, Football, baseball, and basketball...

You already have Beckham, what else do you need?

Transfer window opened this month, who has your team signed?

We've just sold Ross McCormack for a steady 11m. It's the most paid ever from a championship club, not bad for fulham the tinpots.

Emre Can, Lambert and Lallana. Few others potential signings.

Oh, and Suarez will leave 99%. I've stopped caring though. Every one can be replaced and considering the strikers Liverpool had during the history it's np:

Roger Hunt & Ian St John, Kevin Keegan, Kenny Dalglish, Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler, Michael Owen, Fernando Torres and finally Luis Suarez. Someone else will take Suarez place. NP

[darmaster]

There's only one luis suarez bagge, only one. and he does not share his greatness

Luke shaw and some spaniard herrera joined manU

[Strudog]

Sanchez to Arsenal, what a signing. A double blow for Liverpool loosing Suarez and handing Sanchez to Arsenal, Liverpool will be out of the top 4.

You might as well start supporting Barcelona now Bagge
