By Zabojnik Go To PostProfessor Sal isn't responding right now, so I might as well ask the english natives here.I'm not sure where you found the sentence, but it's a linguistic atrocity (dat "speciality" rather than the more active "specializes"; (hopefully-redundant) "bottled" as opposed to what, "barreled" or ... "boxed"?!).
"The speciality of our wine bar is the <single glass?=""> degustation of bottled wines … "
Basically you don't have to buy the entire bottle, they are happy to only pour you a single glass of the wines you're tasting. How would you put it?
I would say, however, they probably mean smaller pours than a full glass - for comparative sampling or possibly also for experimental pairing.
By Ciaran Go To PostI think you guys (Martial) can pull it off just based on what Allegri is currently doing with MandzukicI think this is the probable reason he hates the wing, because he has at times got to double up and cover more than if he was upfront, he clearly hates defending.
I mean who would've thought that a DONKEY like Mario would ne playing his best football with us wide on the left?
to be honest I'm not exactly sure what we're doing with our front four, but it looks like Mandzukic isn't really playing as wide as you'd think…but he IS tracking back like an animal
But unless you are so good going forward that you cant be dropped and the team literally has to form around you (Like we did with Ronaldo, like Chelsea do with Hazard) then you gotta put the yards in.

Zabo was trying to translate something in Slovenian, he tried doing it word for word but it wasn't working.
Martial is a wide player; Lingard is a wide player; Rashford is a centerforward; Mata is a SS; Rooney is a punchline.
That's what the performances have shown me.

By Mr Cola Go To PostI think this is the probable reason he hates the wing, because he has at times got to double up and cover more than if he was upfront, he clearly hates defending.Mou did it with Eto'o at Inter too btw, another guy who doesn't mind tracking back and playing out of position. It could/should work, but I guess that will be down to Martial and his attitude on the pitch
But unless you are so good going forward that you cant be dropped and the team literally has to form around you (Like we did with Ronaldo, like Chelsea do with Hazard) then you gotta put the yards in.
both Mario and Eto'o are selfless players too. I mean, Mario is basically Gonzalo's footstool now..
tell him to bury that #9 dream
By Ciaran Go To PostYO KING FLABBERSONAh. My first instinct was to assume some sort of translated garbling, but my boss tends to write like that, so I've become accustomed to the native use of shattered English.

By Mister0084 Go To Postdanilo startingfor fuck sakes
we're dropping points today
By Gurthang Go To PostRonaldo and Benzema starting means also they won't score any goals.morata over benzema, how is that guy still starting
By mos6142 Go To Postmorata over benzema, how is that guy still startingI agree, even Mariano over Benzema would be a positive at this point.
Both Ronaldo and Benzema are in horrid form, although I guess they need to play to regain form.
Would have ideally liked to rest Kroos and start Isco in place.
We need to win this game, I remember in the past couple seasons when Barca/Atletico dropped points we didn't take advantage, we can't repeat that.
Schweinsteiger is going to be added to United's EL squad.
Ashley Young could leave before the window closes (and would be the only remaining player to do so). Mourinho wants him to stay, but unsure if he will.

Guillem Balague is the biggest liar in the football industry, like he just makes shit up. He knows nothing about our team and has no sources whatsoever yet he just starts rumours like nobodies business.

whats wrong with me
Dead time in American sports here with the Super Bowl and then NBA not mattering for a couple of months.
By Scum Go To PostHas Trump been impeached yet?Impeached? He'll win the league. His Dow Futures to refugees (DF:R) ratio is impeccable.
By Slizz Go To PostNBA not mattering for a couple of months.The NBA never matters.
Except when Reilo or some such pops their head in the thread, of course. Then it absolutely matters.
Watched NBA last night. The Warriors were in triple digits and up nearly 40 with 3 minutes left in the third quarter. Commentators weren't even watching/working at one point. Just telling stories and ripping on each other.
Blake Griffin had nice 12's on though.
The idea of Ronaldo needing a confidence boost is hilarious to me.
