yeah.. I think for a team like Arsenal, it makes sense for them to prioritize Europa League, because they don't look good enough for top 4 in PL. But Dortmund is qualifying for CL either way, and the Bundesliga title would be amazing for them.

Yeah Reus is still injured for Dortmund right now, who else is not their? Shame as that group looked very competitive from the draw but it seems Dortmund might have drew the short star playing both Real and Spurs straight off the bat.


Schmelzer, Guerreiro, Piszczek. We have no LB and a brand new green as grass RB. Also Durm and Röde.

Weigl, Bartra, and Götze aren't 100% either.

The problem for BVB in the league is that Heynckes will give Bayern a big boost and make them much more stable. I think the Europa League is our best shot at a trophy this year.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

Mike Ashley is actually going to sell?

Wel it seems Spurs fans really can't fill Wembley. United still have the highest attendance and highest average attendance in the Premier league this season. I guess that's not much of suprise.

Palace and Chelsea are keeping the line that anyone can beat anyone in the Premier League alive. Meanwhile Man City are making it look more like La Liga.


What an obsession with La liga. You live in the past, the level has increased a lot in the other teams since the new tv rights distribution 3 or 4 years ago. For example, Real Madrid loosed against Betis and they draw against both Valencia and Levante. In addition to that they won 2-1 to both Alavés and Getafe in even matches with many problems for them.

Talking about La liga, I'm happy that both Valencia and Betis are playing awesome and getting great results, they are two classics of the league. Last night match between them (3-6) was awesome when the match was 3-4 xDD
The stereotype that La Liga is the two best teams in the world given all the money in the league and just smashing tiny teams in front of empty stadiums week in week out is definitely been challenged recently. Atletico Madrid’s performance in recent years is as I’ve recognized before is great for La Liga bringing more competition at the top end. The clubs nearer the bottom even seem to put up more resistance these days. Even the empty stadiums part has been challenged there’s only one team averaging below 10,000 so far this year.

It’s just a fun default stereotype to go to say La Liga is easy and no one watches it as we look on jealously in awe of how good the top two teams (now maybe three) are from rainy England.

Yeah that was my reaction xD
He looks 5 yards offside to me but the reason was i think he played "a really bad game" prior to scoring that.

Texas even into football? I mean when these American owners move things i assume they check that wherever they are moving to actually likes the sport?

Well MLS has two texan teams. So it seems to work and I would expect he is having the large number of hispanics in texas in the back of his mind and not so much this guy + Show Spoiler +

Italy vs sweden for playoffs. This will be a big one, and I think it is a legitimate possibility that Italy won't make it.
Also northern Ireland vs switzerland, I guess both will be happy, same as ireland vs denmark. Croatia vs greece the only one with a clear favorite.

Yeah of course, but Sweden had a tough group this year and won 8-0 to get to this point basically which was impressive. Only to wind up in the worst draw possible. 2 World Cups in a row as well poor guys.

they move because they get a free stadium built for them, tax breaks, free shit. and then move on to the next city after the city realizes hey this is a bad deal for us. at least that's how it is in the NFL

From the games I've seen Sweden they're not really good. They qualified on a last minute goal and a legit goal being called offside from NL. They're not going to beat Italy.

Thoughts on RM penalty?

The contact looks really soft to me on that angle, but then again I don't think he gets the ball either. I guess it's a fair penalty.
