The Footy Megathread!

[Horhay]

Well we keep finding more and more fans, garlad you are just adding to the group. So let's keep all football related content in this thread since we are small group of fans who actually follow we can't make threads that only one person will reply. Anyways Scott, Baliey, Dattebayo and myself all follow pro football. The same people in addition to Bravesfan and jrocca have/play FIFA09.

To answer your question from the other thread, yes I do follow. I don't have a particular team in the EPL, but I enjoy watching the games. However I am liking Liverpool this year, I think if they don't win it now they won't in a long time! they are finally reaching that talent threshold and it's their time! Torres is in a fantastic level and Benitez is having no issues with players so what else can I say? ManU is finally losing grip. Chelsea is a mess I think, they keep buying players and more players that bring a huge ego and that's why the teams is so inconsistent! the egos that team has will not let them find their rhythm. Arsenal has a relatively young team that will only get better and I keep reading everywhere that they might lose Fabregas this next summer....

I used to watch plenty of the Spanish league, but I lost GolTV which used to show all the games every weekend. Fox Sports channel now shows the EPL and the Serie A Italian league which is not bad, but not the same.

I saw replays of the supposed hit on the face to Tevez and I just couldn't see it. To me it seemed like Tevez was simply faking it.

The replays they showed here were from far away.

In my opinion Tevez shouldnt even be playing for City for the way he acted a while back, let alone sharing the teams 'paid for' limelight.

What a dramatic win for City Reminds me in 1999 Man U vs Bayern Munich champions league final. 2 goals in the 89th minute and injury time

As a massive Man Utd (yes I'm in London, but I go to games ok), I'm very eloquently going to change the subject to the upcoming Champions League Final this Saturday.

Does anyone have any thoughts? Personally I hope Bayern rip Chelsea apart, it would be great to see John Terry cry again lol. He maybe crying tomorrow anyway when Hodgson announces his squad for the Euros.

But in all seriousness, I never expected Chelsea to beat Barcelona so anythings possible. But in Bayerns home arena, that will be a bit difficult.

Chelsea have so many injured/suspended players it'll make it even more difficult for them.

Robben hattrick!! GOGOGO!! Is it on ITV?

 

[Horhay]

As a fellow Mourinho hater I hope the Germans do the job and take the crown!

 

[HUBMUSWELL]

Go Chelsea, fly the flag for the EPL

 

[xxquartzxx]

and good luck to Reading f.c next year in the premiership

 

[sunnyx]

I hope Chelsea win it, they deserve to after coming so close against Man U in the final a few years ago only for John Terry to slip and miss the penalty!

 

[Horhay]

Wow Man U got Eden Harzard! That kid is good. Finally Fergie trying to bring some new blood to the again squad.

 

[sunnyx]

Really?! Where did you read that? Can't find it anywhere on the news. Awesome news if it's true!

Let me find it, it was on an American news a few days ago. I read that it was Hazard himself who announced it. Let me go find it. I'll be back in a bit.

I also read about Kagawa from Dortmond. That would be interesting, Kagawa is pretty good. Although if they really wanted someone form Dortmond I'd probably get Mario Gotze.

The only thing Hazard has stated that he will end up in 'Manchester' as far as im aware no one knows which Manchester club...yet.

nevermind it was stupid goal.com. Forgive me

Big sigh, lol. That website, I mean honestly where do they get their info? They always release news like this which never turns out to be true!

But got a feeling he's going to the noisy neighbours!

Fergie's going to have to do some serious spending this summer.

BUT everyone's forgetting we have the best central defender in the world still to return in Vidic, and if Fletcher can get fit and put his colitis behind him, he could prove a massive boost!
