What a squad.
If Google didn't exist, I'd challenge the non-seriefaces to a game of Match the Player with the Club.
Everyone would fail.
Italia will fail.

By Francis Go To PostThat Italy squad is just sad. Especially the forwards.the number 9s are average but the wide attacking players and second strikers are actually quite decent/effective, so here's hoping....
What happened?
yurt broccholi already promoted monty's replacement last season, primavera and future milan capitano locatelli #allitalianmilan
By ReRixo Go To Postwith insigne and pelle I think strikers are fine, worst part is lack of marchisio..:((
By il Diavolo Go To Postyurt broccholi already promoted monty's replacement last season, primavera and future milan capitano locatelli #allitalianmilan:lol
this new homegrown rule is gonna be a bitch too. As it stands, we only have Marchisio I think loool
I suppose we could always promote a keeper and recall Ashton Kutcher (again) and Luke Brown and let them waste away on our bench..
By il Diavolo Go To Postyurt what about that moist keane lad you guys have been hyping upoh right
I have absolutely no idea what happened to him, I'm gonna have to ask Zabo and Shanks....last thing I heard he was refusing to sign a (professional) contract or something, because Mino is buzzing around him, of course.
he's tearing up U17 but so was the orange juggler Mastour -_-
By Elchele Go To Postis amazing how shit the Spain NT is. how is that even possibleThey lack discipline.
The clasico has gone too far.
this fascination with giaccherini fascinates me. prandelli had it too. is it perhaps a motivational tactic because hes so physically unappealing that it boosts the rest of the squads confidence? but then we have florenzi for that now, who also happens to be a better player and just as versatile, so when you factor him in there really is no excuse. someone help me understand.
By rvy Go To PostThey lack discipline.Magath would put them back on the right direction

good question actually.
I guess there's nobody else to call up to serve as backup
By Wedward Go To PostBeen in Jackson Hole this weekend. Going to Yellowstone tomorrow.
America is so beautiful.
Dat rural PNW. I must see it again.
Its on my nature to - do along with Maine.
I have finished soft modding my Wii. Going to use it to play some of my GBA games on the TV and backup my Wii and Gamecube games on a hard drive. Fun little project since I've never soft modded a console. I did the PSP custom firmware thing but that takes just two minutes.
By Elchele Go To PostMagath would put them back on the right directionThey deserve shit for dinner.
I have written the name of one player and put it in an envelope.
He shouldn't be in France, but he will score us a vital goal. Then proceed to contribute nothing after that.
Buffon
BBC
Darmian Jorgingo De Rossi MDS
insigne
Pelle SES
I would be happy with that formation.
Actually, I am mot really, but I just want to force Insigne and SES into the same starting lineup.
I feel if they connect then some of the football would be next level.
I am pretty happy with the squad minus the Marchisio injury, and no Rugani and Berardi.

By Elchele Go To PostArsenal paid € 45 million for Xhaka? wowI think that's what it could get up to with the clauses. It was more around € 30m base

I know it's still early for making claims about our transfer strategy, but I just know it'll be an excruciating summer.
The early Tonelli deal seemed promising, but it's becoming increasingly apparent that he will be the only CB we sign, excluding the possibility that we sell Koulibaly and replace him with someone worse.
I understand that we're seeking depth, which is great; but we could achieve that same depth by acquiring new starters, behind whom our current starters would be the depth. We needed that at CB, but they've seemingly abandoned that path. We could use that at RW as well, but there hasn't been any hints of that either (the Klaassen rumors claimed Sarri envisioned him, at times, out on the right wing, but that's not what I'm searching for, nor does that seem to be Klaassen's idea of a good career decision either).
With the current starting formation, I don't see any way for us to compete with Juve (ignoring the extremely unlikely possibility of a white and black self-destruction, of course). Our defence remains brittle. Our attack remains overly reliant on Higuain. And at the end of the summer ADL will offer his usual proclamations about a lack of value in the market and the club having been in the red last year, and we'll settle in for another race for the CL spots rather than a scudetto chase.
And all of this presupposes that we keep Higuain, because if we lose him ... fuck, I don't know what we'd do.

By n8 Go To PostGiving up on this year's Football Manager. Find it much too hard. In 15 I could win the league after two or three seasons with shit teams. Here, I'm finishing 11th, never winning cups, routinely losing 2-0 after having 20 shots and the opponents having 2. It happens every second game. Difficulty and complexity has gone well up and I've stopped enjoying it.I'm currently in 2022 with Weston Super-Mare in The Championship.
SSN reckon both Blind and Mata will be leaving this summer. Not sure how they've come to that conclusion.
By snk2 Go To Postwtf is this?
what a lad
Forza flabber. Similarly, I've no idea how Morata leaving changes our mercato plans as far as strikers are concerned. Some are saying we'll just replace him with Berardi, but I don't believe for a second we'd have the audacity to show up in CL with an attack composed of Mandzu, Dybala, Zaza and Berardi. That'd be crazy, no matter how high-profile a player we sign for our midfield.
Bring me Gabigol. Bring me Gabriel Jesus. Bring me Borriello.

Cunt.
By Laboured Go To PostSSN reckon both Blind and Mata will be leaving this summer. Not sure how they've come to that conclusion.Mata is obvious given his and Jose's past and I'm guessing Blind is mentioned because he publicly backed LVG
Can't see Blind playing at CB under Jose. Too short and weak. That experiment cost LVG dearly in that all important West Ham game.
By KP Go To PostThe demise of Callum Chambers may be the best thing that's ever happenedSo once they leave the nest, they are dead to you? You'll make a great parent.
I lost all respect for Ronaldo at Euro 12 with his insisting on taking the last penalty then Portugal getting eliminated before he got a chance.
I can't believe RM allowed him to do that. It is such a pathetic move to make it all about him. Score the winning penalty and be seen as the hero.

I like Madrid but damn.....
between stuff like this and show-ponying of their new players, why must they take everything that happens to them and shove it up its own ass.
