Aresnal top of the group? That must be a mistake. I'll get onto the BBC and tell them there's a mistake on their website.

First but they're still going to get Bayern haha
Tbh it might be better to finish second for these tier 2 teams. If Real doesn't top the group tomorrow, knowing that they can't face Barça or Atletico, and Bayern can't face Dortmund, the odds of getting either of them for other teams are going to be very high.

Not sure if finishing second is better for Arsenal, Porto, Benfica and Copenhangen so far look a lot weaker than any of the first place teams and they have a chance of Neverkusen too. For Real it's defeinitely better to get second though, especially if somehow Juventus doesn't win against Zagreb and Sevilla beats Lyon.

Wow that plane that crashed had barely enough fuel to make the trip without delay. But since the plane was delayed for landing and because the pilot did not want to admit it the plane crashed.
To imagine that pure greed of a few dollars cost the lives of so many people - disgusting.

yeah but i don't like that pilots have to pay the fuel itself but that is standard worldwide.

Anything with less than 60 teams does not deserve the name "world cup".

It should be a tournament where every nation participates! Hell yeah! Excluding SanMarino from the WC is not in the spirit of football!

So maybe I got this wrong, but listening to the media about the Cristiano 150M tax fraud I hear something along this line:

A spanish judge has decided that nothing can be published in the media about this case, not only here but not even in the rest of Europe. This is hella fun if real, because it's obvious that a spanish judge has no say about what can be published in other countries lol.

The law experts of the country all agree this is extremely weird. This kind of decision is only made when "the cons of publishing stuff about something far outweigh the pros". I mean there could be a way bigger investigation going on, since this country elite is extremely corrupt, that could be an explanation.

Other groups (media? law?) are saying that this decision is outrageous, attacks the right of free speech and there are very few instances of such decisions in democracy.

I hear all this stuff while working so please take with a grain of salt. If anyone can expand on this topic or correct me feel free please

One of the few English articles I see:

Judge Arturo Zamarriego issued an injunction against all 12 outlets - including Spain's El Mundo and Germany's Der Spiegel - at the demand of Senn Ferrero, a Spanish legal advisory firm that claims some of the information was obtained through a cyber-attack on the company.

http://www.thelocal.es/20161207/spanish-sports-minister-challenges-football-leaks-gag-order

Spiegel is now reporting that official investigation/prosecution against Real players has begun, but still is anyone actually surprised that it wasn't only Barca players that tried to evade paying tax after all?

The Ronaldo fraud was all about his image rights though, nothing to do with his playing wages? He supposedly has been putting all his money from advertisements and such in tax havens and what not. I love how this is only happening in Spain btw, i mean like why is Spain the only country to do this, im sure in England it is 10000x as worst as instead of 2 clubs paying high wages it is 20 xD


I thought Gianni was gonna be a good FIFA President, but so far he has been caught in his own money issues already, claiming money when he shouldn't on expenses? Now he thinks its a great idea to have 16 groups of 3 teams in which 2 go out....i mean England's pretty boned or we will get groups of Germany/New Zealand/Jamaica or something silly. Where all group is one clear favourite.

at first thought I was like hm 16 groups of 3 teams sounds pretty cool

but then I realized that if top 1 advances it's gonna be the same amount of games total as 32 teams, just with more bad teams involved (so average game quality could be expected to drop a bit) and if top 2 advances then it's a pretty meaningless group stage for a lot of the teams involved.

According to tradition we will get Arsenal v.Bayern and Real v easiest possible opponent, so Monaco/Leicester. Quite a few very nice matchups possible tho
