I like it to be competitive but then again, another league title wouldn't hurt. Juventus only have themselves to beat. League is done and dusted.
 
Hopefully Ronnie's cold streak is over

Kovacic :hat

PSG got a nonsense PK call. Bernardo with the late golazo to bring justice and Monaco on top of Ligue 1
 
That spurs-Chelsea rivalry is starting to become a thing of beauty
So heated that me and Rck got a bromance going on beyond NT

But at current levels alongside strength that Spurs came off from last season I believe they're our biggest competition easily. Remember they're the ones that clapped us During our win streak by just playing right against us.

Adding that we have no Euro comp so our squad is the same week in week out. That will change once we get some Euro comp next. I want London batman to have PT desperately for those reasons

After last season's failure, getting Conte and my own personal Oakland Raider getting a winning record in like a decade and even making playoffs I'm staying on humble pie for a loooong time
 
I kno him personally.. don't feel too bad he's still a ****

Well gotdamb

Monaco is the best team in Ligue 1 this year.

I've been saying for the longest, I don't like Matuidi. He's more of a liability at times than actually helping in the midfield.

This was a crucial game for those guys to go out and make a statement. Ligue 1 was PSG's to lose, and while I think we can still run away with it somehow, I can't see it as realistically as Monaco winning it this year.

The team has started to come together since the end of last year, but I'm still on the wall about Emery. I know its a new league, a new set of guys, and everything has to balance out, but after Blanc came through and dominated, it just doesn't seem like Emery will have the same type of grip on the league. Granted there was Zlatan up front, but still. Cavani is having his best season in france so far, but we need another guy with him up there. Yes Zlatan was great, but we also had Cavani backing him up. I really hope we make a move for another strike this summer. Aguero, Sturridge, someone established and a known goalscorer.

Its time for Motta to go and Matuidi can get lost too, bring in some muscle and technique in the midfield. No Veratti = midfield is in shambles.

Emery was supposed to be the guy who can turn things around in the CL.. We can't even beat Monaco, Barcelona is going to filet our ***.

Zlatan ain't walking through that door

If Emery is expecting to dominate the Europa league with PSG, he can kick rocks. We ain't playing that b.

jape jape yea imo Kovacic is the player that Zidane has had the most impact on. Also great to see he uses his stocky build to dig in on defense now too. Dude always comes with max effort. Sometimes lacks the end product but that'll come. He's great though because you can plug him in for any of the starting midfield trio when one is out.

Good to know we won't have to worry when it's time for Luka to pass the torch to his countrymen. Also seems like one of those dudes that's a pure footballer. Doesn't obsess with the limelight and the lifestyle. Seems like he just about chillin with his gorgeous gf and apparently even attends church Sundays (which is how he met her in the first place.)

They also record assists now

But ya don't let a crazy thing like statistics get in the way of United supporters logical thinking
What surprised me the most was Eiddy really cosigned man's. I thought he was the most logical of the bunch.

You keep speaking about midfielders, but it really depends on what type of midfielder, and what system is played.

I personally have said more than once on here, Pogba was purchased to dictate the tempo of the game, break up the play and play the pass before the assist. He has the ability to score goals, and make assists when he plays in an advanced position. But have a look at his actual playing positions.

Main position:
Central Midfield

Side position:
Defensive Midfield
Attacking Midfield

If you need a visual representation of that http://www.transfermarkt.com/paul-pogba/profil/spieler/122153, he's literally right in the middle of the pitch. Hence I always speak about his influence on a game. I've seen games with Pogba being directly influential in the almost every attack, but not get an assist or goal because he's the man who played the pass before the assist. If Pogba was a 10, I'd understand your logic........but he's not. Did I just read someone in here using Maradonna as an example because he's listed as a "midfielder"? Forgetting he played as an ATTACKING Midfielder in a Forward position, directly behind the strikers?

But hey, keep on using stats like assists and goals to dictate Central Midfielders positions. :rolleyes

I see there is a mental inability for y'all to get over the fact that midfielders can score goals and I know y'all worship man like God, so even saying Maradona in the same sentence as anyone else gets y'all flustered so I'm gonna give y'all an example that y'all should be able to wrap y'all head around.

Y'all bought Pogba with the expectation for him to score and get assists, but considering it ain't directly reflecting like that, y'all gonna look at other stats to comfort y'all for overspending on him. It's like when a man settles with a girl that he ain't too fond of . "She don't look so good, but she can still cook or she can clean".

I literally already typed "He has the ability to score goals, and make assists when he plays in an advanced position."


I've just come to the conclusion that you can't read, and because of this conclusion, I won't even bother going back and forth with you any further.

I don't even read y'all text walls cause it ain' nothing but denial. Y'all denied that midfielders could score goals said that Maradona was a forward when he did score. I provided you with a midfielder with a similar role to Pogba, in fact an eve more defensive role than Pogba, but was still able to score so now you shut down on some "lalalal I don't want to hear you" and deflect to something else when the truth hit you like a ton of bricks, but whatever. Enjoy your day.

Don't bother, he'll just say 'midfielders can score too' when nobody said they couldn't :lol ******* dense.



Looks like a £20m bid is coming in from China for Rooney. Think we can hold out for a bigger fee with the money they've been throwing around.

I know you have a hard-on for me(Can't help being this sexy), but at least be truthful. Sounding like a scorned woman. Claims they ain't checking for us, but comes into our thread to monitor us. :rollin

I'd hold out until the summer because that's when the big money offers will come,heard some insane figure from China the other day for Roo that would make him the highest paid player in the world

Apparently Young might be on his way to China too,this window. He's been offered 10m a season apparently :x,dude should take it and run if true :lol

Unrelated,trouble in paradise at Juve?



Kind of a big **** move there :lol

Dybala just signed a new contract too. Dude better not pull a Payet.

Probably just upset he got subbed off.

Payet was probably just homesick like in FIFA career mode where it forces you to sell your player and sell them without you knowing. :rollin

Big teams are going to throw big cash at Dybala
I hope he ends up at RM. I think he fits the Galatico motif
