how eloquent of you panch

Watching him play for Chile, I think he can fit the tiki taka system. Chile pulled off the pass and move style football better than anyone in the Copa. My main reason for liking the purchase is that its better to have more players who can run at the defenders. Messi and Iniesta are the only ones who...

I am pleased for the pants of Canada. :p Really though, this is a huge step up for USA in terms of coaching ability. I think that might've been the first in a multi-step plan that might see them through to the quarters again next WC, and maybe even the semis, if they get some luck as well. All the ...

He is prolly gonna get loaned out too. He has become very injury prone though. However in terms of talent Sanchez is definitely much better and he is a year younger. Sanchez will have to compete with Pedro, Villa and Messi (yeah not messi lol)....the same way Cesc will have to compete with Xavi, Bus...

lol it was expected of Malaga ever since they were bought by this stinking rich sheikh. Arab money all day.

As for Bojan. Its really just a glorified loan deal. If Bojan proves himself then Barcelona will buy him back, if not then Roma pays more to keep him permanently. I prefer that he goes.

hahaha yes!! revolver ocelot! what a badass

Nuri Sahin, Hamit Altintop, Raphael Varanne and Fabio Contreao to Madrid. Out of those four, I have seen Fabio and Altintop play. Fabio played in the World Cup and I can say that he is a quality left wingback. As for Altintop, he is not bad and quite a reliable sub. Alexis Sanchez to Barcelona! I am...

Where you guys really watching this when Brazil - Paraguay was on? :?: I will be man enough to admit it: Yes I was watching the final when Brazil vs Paraguay was going on. Granted the quality of skill is terrible compared to Men. I mean I have seen second division teams play better than these World...

I have come to the conclusion that Argentina will not win any major trophy unless the defence improves and they get a Riquelme type player. Their main plan was "Give the ball to Messi". Uruguay saw that and double marked him, hacked him and kicked him until he was tired. I have NEVER seen Messi get ...

If Messi was playing in the Chilean team, he would be doing really well. So far they have been the most impressive team of the tournament. Lavezzi and Tevez who are the other two forwards that Messi supports dont know the concept of a back pass. I dont see how Lavezzi deserves to start over Aguero o...

tevez and lavezzi have been such sh*tty ball hogs.

I cant believe i am saying this but Argentina was better under Maradona

Wait till the Euro/World Cup? I swear there are always new members after those tourneys.

Its the way the team plays. Building from the back is very important instead of hoofing it forward in Barca's possession based strategy, which explains why Puyol and Pique have very commendable technique on the ball........except Puyol is a bit clumsy when he dribbles now :lol: I think thats one of ...

Ramos - Carvalho - Pepe - Marcelo --------xabi ----------lass------------- Di Maria ------- Ozeil --------Ronaldo -----------Aguero ---------------------- Beast team, and I love how Diarra's in there he's amazing and underrated, better than Khedira. But where's Kaka? I'd have Di Maria on the left t...

Thats because the MLS uses a play-off format instead of doing the traditional (whoever has the most points at the end wins) format that top leagues use
