who are quality CB's now a days anyway

 

[Coupé It]

Lol, damn a lot of talk telling me to piss off. I respect it lol.

But I might have to change the poll because I for sure didn't think it'd be a dead heat. Would have thought it was "footy" by a margin.

Leak of United's away shirt next year. Looks like the shirt of a club my son's team plays in his U11/U12 league.

Robben is a fantastic player and an integral part of the team, but is it really fair to say Robben = Bayern?

Bayern have so many talented players, and a very talented manager that they will make a plan.

Bayern is a real life FIFA squad so they'll be fine.

Got 80+ rated players from the starting 11 to the subs.

They're still my pick even without Robben

they'll be fine unless they need a trademark robben flop for a pen in the dying minutes

I hate people using the term futbol in the English language. Use football/footie or soccer.

I'd slightly get it if Hispanic people created the sport, but that's not the case.

And not sure if it matters, but I'm also a known La Liga fan boy, so you guys know I love my fútbol but it has no place in the English language.

It should be called the Football thread (with a soccer ball emoji to be clear ) I'm sure the occasional angry bro will come in here every few weeks arguing that somehow niketalk is America and we should go back to where we came from to play our sissy sport where we just kick a ball around, but imo its the best name for the game.

Actually it's kind of funny, whenever I watch the game played at a low/med level I naturally call it soccer. But the game at it's best and classiest is without a doubt Football

Zidane is getting his padawan training on. He first visited Bielsa at Marseille last fall to study his coaching tactics/philosophy, he has now made a pilgrimage to Bayern to check out Pep's.

Would have done that a long time ago but I don't want NFL thread people coming in here bro, that why I spelled it in Spanish. Not trying to get those dudes messing stuff up all the time.

It's on ya'll man, democracy. I'll change the poll.

United kit is

There is a club here in the Baltimore "urea" called Maryland United Futbol Club (MUFC). They have MUFC on their shirts with the Maryland flag within the letters. They have black (shown), red, & grey shirts. All of them look better than this United away shirt. This team's kit even has Maryland socks.

I could get an adidas shirt from a local uniform supplier & slap on the United crest & chevy sponsor & it would look like that shirt.

For me, it just doesn't fit for a club of this stature.

Funny, I have a feeling the cost of the United deal, loss in market share, & financial loss had a huge hand in adidas not renewing it's NBA uniform deal.

Soccer elitist are just as bad if not more annoying than 'Merican Football types.

If you're a real one soccer/football/futbol are all 100% interchangeable depending on context of course.

 

[Kimchi Papi]

^ I agree for the most part, but I'd take a "soccer elitist" over an nfl fan meat head any day.

Vermaelen has returned to training for Barca... How much you wanna bet he gets injured again soon.

 

[User 37837]

^Totally forgot about dude. Seems like he's been gone for the whole season

 

[8pm at msg]

Vermaelen was sent as an inside man to destroy Barca from within

Minnesota got the expansion team for 2018. And the waiting for Sacramento to get one continues...
