OT: Futbol II

[CapitalsCupReality]

Yeah I agree.....Mata was one big reason I became a Chelsea fan when testing the BPL waters a few years ago. Great player....certainly seems personal. That said, I like the other moves they're making right now. They can't turn down that money for Mata IMO if they're just going to sit him.

Thank you Liverpool!

Funny watching these guys battle it out in the press, trying to swap pressure around to the other's team.

Two expected but still very nice road wins for Barca and PSG today...

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Wow Stoke!!!

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Jesus....really, Aston Villa? Chris Foy you are horrible.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Operation Blue strike done, Arsenal down...

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Real Madrid getting ripped off right now....

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

What a comeback for Chelsea!

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Well Liverpool just had the title awarded by a referee. Tough way to lose.

I bet a healthy Lyon could have taken down the new giants in French football today, however a few key guys were out and they lost to PSG in the cup final. Hope OL finds another way to secure a spot in the Champions League soon.

Yeah, that guy... he was responsible for a 2 goal swing at least, terrible.

I'm pretty sure that is the first time ever a questionable call has decided a game and God knows a call like that has never gone in Chelski's favor.

Big teams get those calls in their favor 4 or 5 to 1 and their fans never say squat when they get those calls, as if they are entitled to them or something, but boy do they cry when they go against them.

If Mourinho actully allowed his teams to play the way a stacked team like his should play a questionable call for the likes of the Black Cats wouldn't matter...

A bad call is a bad call, big team or not. You'd feel better just admitting it instead of trying to obscure the issue like an opposing fan.

Sure it was a questionable call but questionable calls occur multiple times every game and they are called vastly more often in favor of the big teams. When fans of big teams cry about the occasional questionable call that goes against them when playing the small teams it reaks of hypocrisy.

Questionable....gimme a break. It was a horribly blown call. You can't even admit the obvious. Hard to take your whining about big teams crying seriously.

Marcotti said it was a call that 'could have gone either way...'

In other news, the earth could be round.

Bye bye Moyes....

Bye bye Moyes....

And very likely hello van Gaal. Not a good thing for the rest of the EPL IMO...

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Ugh...Cech gets his feet cut out from under him on a corner, hurts shoulder and is out of the game.

I think Klopp would be interesting, but it appears he's not interested in leaving. Hard to turn down I would think still though if offered.

van Gaal would be a great show to watch. Would be interesting to see if he could mesh with Rooney.

Liverpool will beat Chelsea like a drum Sunday to remove any uncertainty about who is champion.

As they should without Cech (and Terry).

And Hazard, and Ramires.
