well, anyone who watched the under 20 world cup should know

I bet if he would've played the final game, the game would've have some goals.
He is still really young tho, so I dont want to have really high expectations yet. He has the talent!, hopefully Faggot Rijkard will know how to develop it

On another note, I really like Snijder a lot. Who needs Beckham ahaha.. this guy is doing an awesome job. Madrid is winning, playing good, and scoring many goals. Awesome start for Schuster, I guess spending all that money was worth it?

I got a question tho, Roy Denthre is a left Midfielder, he was playing as a left defender, but now heinze plays there like he should and the defensive line is ramos, cannavaro, Metzelder, Heinze and the Midfield is Diarra, Guti, Snijder, Robinho. Where would Denthre play? and when Roben starts playing again, he plays in the left too I think? who will get sacrificed? Robinho?

Madrid is competing in Copa del Rey, Champions League, and La Liga, so maybe rotation? but what would be the indisputable starting 11?

Drenthe came as a full left wing, I mean RM plans were using him as Left Back and Left Middlefielder because the Robben sign was far from closed. But lately we have seen that he has a lot of problems playing as a LB. So we have two LeftMid (Robben+Drenthe) and one RigthMid (Robinho), so probably they are gonna play switching them.

The funny fact is that RM is playing with two offensive middlef: Sneijder and Guti, being Sneijder the one at the left side, but who is going out to put Robben/Drenthe in?
I've been around since it all started, and it feels good

Thats what I was wondering too, I mean I didn't give Denthre shit for not doing good as a LB because that is not his position, he was just covering there.

Arsenal FC v Sevilla in UCL, GO ARSENAL! Man who needs Henry, Adebayor is growing and hes strong and has awesome control, van Persie is always a beast not to mention Fabregas, kid owns midfield.

I hope Eduardo will play. Wenger should let him play more.

edit: How are English fans accepting Eduardo? He is a great player and will be of great use to Arsenal. He is scoring like mad for Croatian national team.

R.Madrid finally stopped buying everybody and its paying off. Stability = stronger roster. See whats happening with Barcelona... Thats exactly what happened with Madrid...

Anyhow, Madrid vs Bremen was good, but defense had some issues... But Nistelrooy who was ''apparently'' in a slump played brilliantly. Oh and the new Bremen jersey's... Oh my dear.

Sevilla vs Arsenal = Game of the day. Also Barcelona vs Lyon will be a game to watch because of Lyon's 4 game winning streak in Ligue 1. Its gonna be a great day of football.
So i did a 9 pool on an island map, so what?

how can you say that madrid stopped buying everyone? they bought heinze, denthre, saviola, soldado, sniejder, robben, Metzelder. thats 7 new players? thats quite a few if you ask me

Barcelona bought Henry, Milito, Toure and abidal( i forgot sorry :D) . 4 just what they needed. and Gio and Bojan upgraded from junior teams.

In the Champions league game, Nistelrooy had 3 clear chances before he scored, and he missed them, he was slow at first, wanted to stop and control the ball and then score. The only time he kicked the ball as it came without trying to stop it and control it, he scored.

Diego was just awesome, poor Gago, he got owned by Diego the whole game.

You forgot Abidal but nvm -_-;
Still its not the matter of 'stars' in Barca. It just happens that after 3 matches Real is 1 and Barca 5, nothing less, nothing more.<part for Adaptation>

Yeah, Real had a great star in this years Liga. and I like they way the play.

Barcelona...? mmm I dont know whats happening.. Eto'o is out, and Henry hasn't have that much luck yet. ( if you remember my blog, I didn't want him in Barca :D) . I also blame Rijkard, I dont like his style and the way he is handling things, Like last game, he took Zambrotta off to put Oleguer in? wtf is that?

Well is still way too early, hopefully Barca will pick up the good game and start winning again.

Huge game tonight, Manchester United vs Chelsea, I think this should be a win for United considering all of Chelsea's recent troubles. Looking forward to seeing Saha and Rooney both up front finally. No more internet streaming for me, going down to a German bar to watch it. Hoping for an exciting game.

Fuck that shit.

Mikel shouldn't have been sent off.
Fuck Saha for diving and fuck the ref for giving a PK in the last 5 minutes.

For everytime that Drogba dives, Ronaldo dives twice.
He doesn't do it anymore and wasn't even playing today.

Just think it's lame for Saha to come on 10 minutes before the game is over after Chelsea have been a man down for over half the game and do that crap.

There was a clear penalty for United at the ~15 minute mark though (on Evra).

yea I thought the penalty for Saha was to make up for the foul on Evra earlier. I will admit Saha went down without much contact, but still his prescence upfront is undeniable, he had a pretty good chance near the end after beating the offside trap but shot off-target. The red card was really a yellow imo, but the joe cole foul might've been red but is still debatable. Overall, good solid win. That's 5 straight now I think. Rooney is still in a slump, hope he gets out of it soon

not the best way for manu to win but...i guess a win is a win no matter how ugly or cheap it is...gota feel bad for obi though...and that saha dive...i wasn't impressed at all with that...i'm a manu fan and all but stuff like that should be vanquished from the sport
