Yeah but if it is in installment plans which im sure this is, then we wouldn't be any closer to finding out? Im not sure surely it is not as simple as that XD

Yeah, Austria Wien is gonna get bombed out though. I scored a hattrick against them once back when I played for Vienna FC.

Check out #1 and #2. In #2, Didier Ya Konan hits a really nice first time shot into the top corner from the edge of the box, and in #1, Henrikh Mkhitaryan scores a Robben-esque goal.

Thanks, i thought the goal at no 5 was better than all goes up to no2 lol. No2 and No1 were good choices, but the freekick at 3 was AWFUL keeping and the shot at 4 was even worst keeping. At least in no5 it was just a sick finish xD

Don't they just have to publish consolidated financial records? Those wouldn't specify how much every transfer would be but just the end result right?

Well, their U16 team haha. During our home tournament at the end of an amazing season where we won 6 tournaments all over the country. Sickest atmosphere, will never forget. We lost to Sparta Prague in the semis though. Sturm Graz won the tournament. Their youth is pretty amazing. Too bad they don't have money and have to sell all their talents before they ever get a chance to form a solid team with them.

The Hohe Warte Stadium, such a beautiful thing to play in.

Was my last season though, financial problems came up and my grades went down because I had no time to study. Training 4 times a week would've probably knocked me out of school + my parents couldn't afford to keep sending me to tournaments (Vienna FC is a rather poor club these days even though they're the oldest Austrian football club and got lots of deals running with Rapid and Austria to keep themselves afloat. Which meant that parents had to pay for a lot of travel expenses when the club couldn't entirely pay for it) so I was forced to quit. I don't regret quitting, it was a necessary decision without a second thought but I do miss it a lot sometimes.

Do you remember any players that were sick back then and are now professional players ? In my team we had Ilan Boccara, but the best players of the team ended up playing in third or fourth division

I guess the most well known player I remember playing against was Marcel Sabitzer. I didn't even remember but my old man said he'd remembered his face which turned out to be true. He played for the GAK U15 when we lost to them in group stage at a tournament in Salzburg.

He's a striker for the Rapid Wien main team now, doing pretty well afaik

During regular season we'd play against Rapid and Austria Wien but also OMV Stadlau who had some amazing talent in their youth teams, some of which just have to be playing somewhere now. There were some insane talents there.

I always keep an eye out for my teammates but so far nobody's really gone mainstream. I'm not surprised though since we never really had outstanding individual players (when we did, they were usually traded to Austria or Rapid as part of their deals T_T). We just had a core team of 10-13 players who'd been playing together for 6 years so our chemistry was really good.

Ahaha, indeed we all should share our sporting stories if you have any. Mine are all ametur level

The only 2 things i have done in my footballing career was:

Playing vs West Brom youth academy was like there U16 when we were a college team lol. We didn't even train or nothing and just said we playing in West Brom, turn up to west brom training ground and vs there team and we was like OH SHIT. That game for me was a blur minus the half volley i had on the edge of the box and put into row z (wasn't any seats but it went high over the bar )

The other thing was again in college we were invited to play in a "futsol" tournament, that 5 a side game which u use a heavy ball which is supposed to keep you passing it on the floor more and more samba like (Brazil invented it as u can imagine). We played the main Worcester Uni team in the tournament and they had this guy who played Futsol for England not sure if was U21 or whatever but he had his own little fan girl pack. Well i made it my job to mark him out of the game in 5 a side was a true Mourinho task i put on myself, i literally just ran around with him the whole 10min each half, and he had 1 touch the whole game which nearly started a fight as i put him on his ass and all the players came over and QQd. Lol xD

Best i can do with my career in terms of playing vs decent players, at 12-16 level i played for good sunday league side and won 2 leagues and 1 cup as well as losing a cup on penalties (even though the fuckers wouldn't let me take a penalty when i was good at them )

Anyone else got any stories?!

I don't think Real Madrid is a publicly listed company, so I don't think they have the duty to make their financial reports public. Publicly listed clubs do indeed have to make these public, and in these reports they usually state the exact transfer fees for each player bought/sold in the year. Non-publicly listed companies may however publish their total revenues for the year or net income and may give some information for Deloitte to publish those yearly rankings.

Also, Pandemona, even if a transfer is paid in cash installments over the years, the full transfer amount would have to figure in the P&L of the year I think.

When I was 9 or 10, my club told us Barthez will come to visit us and we would be able to shoot penalties against him. We were all so excited, and it turned out the guy was just a Barthez lookalike. All of this was for a french TV show, I was so mad.

Ah! I went to Didi Constantini's football camp twice when I was 12/13. Constantini later went on to become coach of the national team for a year or so. I took a picture with Andreas Herzog (now coach assistent of the US national team). Met him at a first team match he attended - Herzog's career started with Vienna FC

The picture turned out terrible though :/

Complete shitshow by Woodward & Co. From what I understand, even with this waiting til the last minute nonsense, we could have had Herrera also coming in and Coentrao on loan had the front office simply had their paperwork in order. Unbelievable.

Heard rumors that United may be doing a little internal review of wtf, exactly, went wrong. In any case I would expect the team to meet any urgent needs in January (if there are any), and get business done next summer.

Fortunately the most pressing need - a physical, energetic presence in the midfield - has been filled. Fellaini wasn't my first choice but he does have the qualities the midfield has missed the most ever since Fletcher has been ill. Carrick + Fellaini make a good enough holding pair to allow some combination of RVP/Rooney/Nani/Kagawa/Valencia/Chicha to win games.

A better attacking 4 would have at least scored a tying goal at Liverpool. Moyes' team selections so far have been less than ideal.

United could easily have beaten Liverpool in that match though. They had some great attacking opportunities. That 1-0 could really be blown out of proportion..
