Yo where do y’all catch replays of games? Haven’t been around all weekend and would like to watch the full United game.

Chief oompa loompa pique is suspended for this weekend's match at Los Che... Weekend will be a big test for Barca.





James can shoot Js?!

Fake news.

Juve was behind 12 points from 1st place during the 15/16 season nearly the same time this year and they went on to win the Serie A.



Hot takes szn in full effect.

I remember that. They won like every game from this point on



I’m down for whatever keeps ozil away from united

Hopefully that BVB scout can find us some gems

Following last night’s derby, Ronaldo is now one of only 6 players yet to make even a single interception or tackle in La Liga this season... and of those 5 other players, 4 are goalkeepers, and 1 is an outfield player who has yet to start a match

got damn...

 

[Beans]

How is he still 12th on that list tho

 

[fluid hips]

Funny how I said cristiano's decline was imminent last season but dudes thought I was on one

 

[vtotheinay]

also, Parks made his debut??

It’s been a hell of a week for U.S. teenagers on the club scene.

Watched McKennie, Parks and De La Torre today, gonna watch the Levante game in a second.

Keaton Parks is special man. 3.5 months to debut for Benfica’s first team. Mother ****in Benfica.

Jonathan Gonzalez though. An 18 year old kid from California is the heart and soul in CM for the best team in Liga MX.

Season defining games against America and yesterday Tigres, and he’s put in MOTM performances. Dude does mind the bright lights at all, he’s played his absolute best in the big games.

Special shout out to Konrad De La Fuente. Long way to go just graduate to Barca B but scoring a goal a game while playing up a year for the Juvenil squad will about do it.

Spoiler

still expect ronnie to come back to normal though
he has to... Real wont come back to life till he does

 

[tomdiginson]

3 children ? I don't get. Are they referencing his girl cause of the age difference ?

 

[jking0821]

Real looked good yesterday despite the score. Ramos lost a ton of blood that was nasty to watch.
They need some one who can finish up there. I know thats easier said then done. But if Ronnie isn't scoring...benz gonna benz...you need some one else. I agree that Kun is a decent stop gap...but he isn't the future. Just throw the bag at Dybala. Give Marco Asensio more playing time.

 

[jape]

it's gotta be hard for zizzou to bench them (ronnie especially)
i think he might be scared to lose the locker room
something doesn't seem right over there...maybe some internal conflict


they are def missing james and morata...they scored a lot of goals for madrid
that back up squad won a lot of games for madrid last year.

His girl recently gave birth to a girl along with those twins from a surrogate.

Yikes

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Lowkey, why didn't they, probably would have gotten a W

Ventura is a coot, any backlash they would have got would have been subdued by making the WC

 

[Black Lotus]

Na yo... Griezy coming to Camp Nou so this can happen like jape said...

In other news... Got dayum... Los Che keep on rolling...

 

[Trey Bantz]

Dario Benedetto tore his ACL last night in Boca Juniors' match against Racing. Looks like Sampaoli is going to have to call up a new striker.

Of couuurseeee

I swear this is part of the reason why most English clubs are ran so poorly man,you've always got the same handful of names of middle aged - old,mediocre British managers being linked to every job opening. Moyes, Hughes, Pearson, Pardew, Big Sam, Woy and the likes would never even get looked at if they weren't British. It's like an old boys club. They get hired,perform poorly,get sacked and rinse and repeat.

Wish more clubs thought outside the box, took the Watford route and stopped being afraid to hire hungry young foreign managers with backgrounds from other leagues instead of acquiescing to the xenophobic sensibilities that are so prevalent. Look at how well they've done under Marco Silva.

Yet folks will bemoan the lack of success at these clubs by pinning it on foreign players instead ,foreign players who are very much the lifeblood of the league.

 

[Trey Bantz]

^sounds a lot like all the old white coaches that keep getting recycled in the NFL

 

[rolaholic]

Word,Jeff Fisher would still have a job if he was an English footy coach
