This is not to unusual in the third word sadly, back home we as a rule carry atleast some cash and mobile phone of reasonable value because you can literally get jacked at any moment regardless of where you are (unless its some secure military housing compound) and if you dont have anything on you they will just knock you off, resisting ofcourse generates similar results.

Ofcourse South Africa is hardly third world and far better but there are still some elements of the country that arent quite out of it yet.

Glad to see that Andre Hahn is still playing well after his move from Augsburg. That guy is so fucking fast.

Kramer vs microphone

Gladbach's counter attacks were making the game exciting. And Kramer`s always good for a surprise, sometimes he looks so awkward on the ball and yet does amazing things like this

Hugging people is 100% allowed in the penalty area by the defending team.
I keep hearing commentators saying that's a foul but I have never once seen awarded as a penalty.

I've seen that be a penalty on multiple occasions

not nearly as often as it actually is a penalty, but surely you have seen penalties been awarded during corner kicks?

Let me rephrase what I said, there is none I remember that have been rewarded but I remember tons of scenarios where it should have been a penalty.
I think refs allow defenders way too much in the box.

Yeah the rule is there but the referee's just don't give it. The same with diving and such, they dont punish it enough thus it still happens. Oh well, every team does it but that Yanited one was on two players xD
Swings and roundabouts i guess.

I remember it only once when Kuipers gave Barcelona a penalty for the opposing team bringing down Puyol in the box (don't remember which team but it must've been Champions League). It was around the penalty kick spot and many people were criticizing Kuipers for giving it.

I guess it's just a close widely contested spot and it's easier for refs not to give it.

By being inconsistent about this stuff refs are making their owns jobs harder. If it was clear and consistent then you could only argue with the ref if they get it wrong. If its unclear like it is now you can always argue, no matter what the ref gives.

Watch Skrtel.

The amount of times players get away with that is absurd.

Even though it should be a penalty, I am surprised when they're given.

Ivanovic does crap like that all the time as well, which makes his shock at not getting a penalty incredibly ironic.


Yes but Ivanovic didn't do it in that game and Rojo and Smalling did

Is hiring Christian Purslow a good thing? He used to work for Liverpool, idk, at least its not Benitez.

Yeah I've been following Gladbach because Xhaka and Kramer are two of my favorite players. I really hope that Kramer comes back to Leverkusen next season but it's going to be hard for him to find games and he's already stated that he'd be open to transfers.

Xhaka unfortunately tore an ankle ligament and will miss several weeks now

Only thing of note he has done when he was at Liverpool was finding them some decent owners in the guys that run it now. If we can use those sort of contacts maybe we can expand the Chelsea brand. His job is nothing to do with football it is just getting Chelsea exposure around the world. Im guessing he will be saying to Mourinho where we will be going on pre season tour lol.
Other than that we have a pretty Russian lady who is now running the club as Ron Gourlay has left.

I hope Dortmund is going to play their worst game of the season tomorrow, and if that happens, as weird as it may sound, I actually root for fucking Stellingen out of all clubs to beat Bayern.

That would make the game of the year possible, just the thought of it gets me excited already :D

Zinedine Zidane banned from coaching for three months due to managing Real Madrid Castilla without the proper coaching qualifications

The Spanish Football Federation has banned the former France midfielder for leading Real Madrid Castilla, the European champions' reserve side.

Zidane's assistant Santiago Sanchez has also received a three-month ban.

Real issued a statement declaring their "absolute disagreement" with the decision, which they intend to fight.

The club said Zidane "has been authorised by the French Football Federation to work as a head coach in the category Real Madrid Castilla currently find themselves in".

Real's statement concluded: "Real Madrid will pursue every available legal avenue so that this decision is overturned."
Zidane was appointed reserve-team coach in the summer after working as assistant to Carlo Ancelotti last season, which ended with Real winning the Champions League.

The former France midfielder spent five seasons with Real as a player after joining from Juventus in 2001 for £45.8m, then a world-record fee.

He scored the winner as Real beat Bayer Leverkusen to win the Champions League in 2002, and was named World Footballer of the Year for a third time in 2003, having received the award in 1998 and 2000.

His playing career ended in controversy when he was sent off in the 2006 World Cup final - his last match before retiring - for headbutting Italy defender Marco Materazzi in the chest.

Zidane worked as an adviser to Real president Florentino Perez before he was appointed the club's sporting director in 2011.

I think Marina has been running the show (for football matters at least) for a while now actually. Supposedly she is behind re-appointing Mourinho and the transfer business all the way back to the Torres deal (not her finest hour that, but I suppose this past Summer makes up for that some). There was some articles on it in the guardian or the telegraph, I can't remember.
