They signed two off. middlefielders because of Guti going out and Kaka is suffering a continuos injury. They signed a holding middlefielder because Mamadhou Diarra is in the end of his contract and Khedira was cheap, young and promising. Carvalho to move Ramos to the right back, but we have 3 center backs injured (Pepe, Albiol and Garay) so he has to play on the center with Carvalho. Also two wingers because Real had only one: CR. Di Maria for the left and Pedro León for the right. Atm I prefer P.León, his crosses are more productive than Di María's speed.

Yesterday P.León should have been playing instead of putting Di María on the right, and probably Khedira instead of L.Diarrá.

Anyway, they played awful but got like 16 scoring chances. In middle season that's a win for sure.
I've been around since it all started, and it feels good

Soo, Hodgson just got his first PL win as LFC manager, team still looks a bit rubbish, especially in the middle of the park, but Torres clearly adds a new dimension. Also, Jovanovic looks like quite a personality.
Looking forward to seing Raul Meireles in that midfield, as Lucas and Poulsen pretty much offer the exact same thing. Pointless playing them together.
Paul Konchesky is such an underwhelming transfer target, the sort of signing mediocre mid-table teams would make. But I guess that's what Liverpool is quickly becoming under the current ownership.

Also, club > country.

I really think that, hardcore football fans appreciate CL much more than Euro Cup. CL is like the best of the best while Euro/World Cup as nice as it is, still features crappy national teams ... so CL > Euro for sure

Club players are well attuned to each other, so the level of football is probably higher in the CL.

But:

- Football players are never more motivated than during a world cup.

- Spain's national team is the highest prized team in the world (~630 Mill. €), worth more than either the team of Real Madrid or FC Barcelona.

Actually I find CL football quite boring.

I like the individual leagues more than CL.

Wow that poll is surprising to me. I love my country and even tho its very hard to support England at times, i always will. I will however also support my club more than my country. I have a home and away season ticket and i go to far more games. So im always going to want to see the Wolves win the league, than England win the Euros. I would of course love to see both tho

Im not like a lot of fickle England fans however who are constantly complaining about the team. Anyone who doesn't support there country are pathetic imo. You should support your team through the good and bad times.

club games are higher quality than country matches, but WC / EC IS the most exciting. it might be purely because it's only every 4 years, but I'm certainly way more excited about WC than I am about CL. I never really cheer for teams in the CL tho, as none of the teams I cheer for ever get far anymore, and in WC's I both have several countries I cheer for and more importantly, cheer against. :p

A close friend of mine. He was in a competition in Austria and can do what hes doing in the vid(don't know what its called in the us) 3000+ times.

Hes probably going to be a soccer player when hes older, hes a beast

doing that 3000 times requires more endurance then skill honestly. :p (which is why you see him use his thighs more often than his feet, that's a lot less tiresome)

not saying he's not good he certainly looks very good for his age but there's nothing mindblowing about that.

Real played horrible.
No idea why Mourinho didnt start with the German players.

Higuian bad.

i dont think i understand even 1 of his signings this season.


Mourinho is gonna fail this season, to the expectations at least, i call it.
And he's already talking crap to Guardiola, man i just dont like that guy at all. -_-


Mourinho does everything he does for a reason. He was equally complained about in Italian footbal as well, even saying that the Italian league wasn't even that great and look what happend (treble).

Basically I wouldn't write Mourinho off yet, because although some of his decisions may seem a little bit sketchy, there is no doubt that he is a brilliant coach. He also has the ability to take alot of the pressure from the press/fans/opposing team and place it all on himself so his players are able to just focus on the game and thats it.

Mourinho's ego does not allow him to fail.

Personally I would love to see Real dethrone Barca because they are just too damn good right now. Just when you think they can't get any better they sign David Villa to somehow make their team even better than it was last season. It would be nice to see another team beat the shit out of Barca for once.

Harry Redknapp should get a best interview award. Him and Big Sam are the best to watch.

Sure they aren't because they are in the Europa League =P (CHE, MANU, ARS and TOT are the teams in CL)

Thanks for the correction, that's what I meant.

AHah that Redknapp vid is hilarious. I would be just as mad if I lost to Wigan as well.
