Why did Newcastle sack their manager? They're doing well this season.


Because Mike Ashley is retarded, and they've supposedly had Pardew lined up to replace him for a few weeks now.

shocking decision by Newcastle in my opinion but really unexpected after another loss - he has been top of the bookies odds to get axed for ages now

As for Nasri he has been in great form this season, best player I've watched play, would of preferred a no look back heel though after passing the goalkeeper :p


He's only been top odds to get sacked because the bookies know ashley is a fucking moron. I bet Newcastle finish below 11th this season.

you would seriously give the ballon dor to sneijder?.....even though yeah id place him in the finalists,theres no way in hell id give him my vote to get it.

For the Epl thingy,never heard the premier league being called that way before,and yeah it does sound a bit MLSish crap league to me >.<
We scarcely use stuff like that in europe,unlike nba nfl mls etc,you'll sometimes hear CL for champions league,but thats pretty much it

Wesley Sneijder ?

Had a Cracker of a season winning a treble and getting his team to the World Cup Finals with like 5 goals.

As somebody said , Style over Substance it is.

eh why not?
Messi is there purely on his GOal Scoring Form.
Xavi is understandable for his majestic performance in both Club and Country

But what the Fuck is Iniesta doing there? Was injured most of the time for Barca and had nothing to show off in the WC apart from the Winning Goal.

I have stopped caring about those awards. They are often quite silly.

id give the top 3 to messi xavi and iniesta. IDK why some people think that barcas play is just 'style.' as if owning la liga with the most points in history is not anything and they did it just by passing the ball around and not scoring. only reason they didnt win champions was because inter played 11 man defense game 2. but barca was clearly the superior team with the superior skill. i know i can sound like such a barca fan boy but thats because people seem to not give them credit saying that "theyre just style" or "they cant score; they just pass around" when theyre easily the best team ive ever watched. im having such a great time watching them.

i mean.... seriously, just watch how iniesta plays. Hes easily top 5 of the most talented footballers in the world right now right behind messi and c ronaldo i think. hes seriously amazing and EASILY deserves being in the top 3.

though i will say that sneider did have a really great season , especially the WC, but even then, hes just mediocre compared to the 3 listed, sorry to say.

edit: rethinking it a bit, i do think that sneider is probably a bit more deserving of at least 3rd place, at least over iniesta, since iniesta was injured for like half the season it has already been said..

^ Inter parked the bus after playing Barca off the park in Milan. In that game we also got to see the dirty side of Barcelona.

Barcelona got record points in la liga, granted, but Real Madrid were still right behind them (also breaking the previous record) the whole way so is it them getting that many points, or their league being a 2 horse one.

Sneijder was an integral part of his team. Barcelona cope quite fine without messi, xavi or iniesta. But then again, I don't care about the d'Or because the criteria for winning such awards is blurry.

Alan Pardew is set to take over Newcastle. I have a short memory but I don't remember him ever doing anything good.

Pretty happy with FC Copenhagen on to RO16 of Champions league, this is the first time a danish club has reached this far so it's pretty historic.

Roma advances quite safely, but with this type of play they are going nowhere.
