Girish Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Shame about this kid, he was having a damn good pre-season for you guys u6wTJGlt0-4 Hopefully, it's only a small injury like JM stated and should not cause him to miss the start of the season.

Stretford would be more fitting. --- @ajbns87: Age is probably one of the main factors. Plus Reina can be quite dodgy from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's unpredictable and makes too many mistakes for me. And Liverpool can't afford this with their Champions League aspirations. One mistake here and there eventually adds up. Look at Tottenham with Heurelho Gomes, he cost them points quite a few times in the 10/11 season which allowed us to slip past into Europe.

Cult Of Personality Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Seems like Arsenal are close to signing Bernard. Pretty exciting prospect but I'm not sure his physiciality is fit for the Prem.

Shoumaker Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Been reading some articles and apparently Liverpool are closing in on Cristian Erikssen; here's one of them. Kind of scared for this move because he didn't really play all that great in Euro 2012. Although that could be because Denmark lack in creative players leading to all of the defenders focusing on him. Do you guys think this is a good move for us? Doesn't Coutinho play in the same position as him so how will this transfer work out? Where will he play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ari Gold Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) I don't know why, but I always confuse Erikson with Christian Poulsen, and that is hardly a good thing because a sack of potatoes branded with the Danish flag would be a better footballer than Poulsen. Glad to hear you had a great time Stef. Post away with those pics. Yay, someone's interested! I couldn't get many because my battery was running low, eventually hitting that glorious 15% battery life mark where Samsungs decide that it's not worth taking photos any more.

Nycki Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) Barca have appointed their new manager. Argentinian guy called Gerardo Martino. Never managed in Europe and played for one season for Tenerife during his playing career. Seems a decent enough coach, went to the quarters in the WC and runner up in the copa america with Paraguay and the semis of the copa libertadores with newell's. Interesting choice nonetheless. Edit: His nickname is Tata.. Edited July 23, 2013 by nycki88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhyn Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) So Fabregas is "considering his future" after Barce say they're willing to sell. Apparently.. Gotta love Sky Sports News lol Also, reports coming out of Spain that Bale has agreed terms with Real. If it's true then AVB will have to make damn good use of the money if he wants CL next year.

If it's true then AVB will have to make damn good use of the money if he wants CL next year. The Spanish Press did the exact same with Isco, claiming he'd signed for Madrid weeks before he'd been announced as a Madrid player. Could be the same with Bale.

Ari Gold Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I'm mates with Victory's Connor Pain, nice to see him fare up against the stars of the 'Pool.

fgcarva1 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) Can anyone tell me what formation Bayern was playing? I mean, a few games back, Guardiola put them in a 4-1-4-1... today it seemed like a 3-4-3 with three fake-9s... kinda looked like a 4-6 And Lahm was essentially a Left Midfielder. EDIT: Higuain and Reina pass medical tests at Napoli and will soon join the rest of the squad. Edited July 24, 2013 by fgcarva1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyn Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 It was pretty much a 4-3-3, Lahm was in right midfield, Thiago cm, Kroos left mid. SRS Incorporated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Liverpool signed Mignolet a few weeks ago. United's Kits are never great which is a shame considering how much money Nike stand to make off them if they were nice. Still, though, it could be worse. Have you seen the Liverpool kits for the coming season? Hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nlwt Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Liverpool signed Mignolet a few weeks ago. That's how much notice I'm taking. Speaking of Liverpool, yeah their kit is laughable. And speaking of United's, it's a bit meh. I really liked last seasons away kit and I know the majority of the fans did aswell so I have no idea why they insist on changing it every single year.
