Holy shit! There were some serious episodes of "shitting the bed" as we called it. Horrendous (but he is still a hell of a player).Quote:

Real Madrid looking likely to defend the title with that potent offense.
"Likely" may be a bit strong after one group stage game - at home - vs Basel, no?Quote:

Then Porto must be "super-duper likely" to win it all after a 6-0 win. ;)Quote:

My point, however, was that nothing is "likely" after the first game of the group stage. The finals are a long, long way away.
Liverpool sure got sweated by Ludogorets, a mighty Bulgarian team from a town of 35k.
Grande Totti. Classy finish

FKN England unimpressive v San Marino in the first 45.
A scrappy corner and a PK is all we can muster against the lowest ranked team in the world? Hope we don't have to play Bhutan....
Shoulda gone with a 0-0-11 formation. That woulda been fun to watch.
Goals galore today
El Classico today!!! That is all
I wanna see Hannibal Suarez take a bite outta Pepe or Ramos
I guess in the end Barca are not any "more than a club" than any other big club and willing to dump out the big $s to secure a star no matter his history of biting and racism.
Bummer it's only on BeIn. Not paying $10 to watch.
Agreed. Add Marcelo to that list, too.Quote:

Game changed when Messi couldn't bury his chance to make the game 2-0. That said, Busquets was the main issue, IMO. When he plays like shit, Barca plays like shit - he's arguably the the most important player on the field in any game Barca plays. No excuses though, RM were just better on the day.
Torres with a totally unexpected one two. Caught the defense completely off guard. Great vision https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrBQy-B0o44
hmmmm, looks like the youtube link is dead. Can see it here instead (how do you embed a vine?) https://vine.co/v/OMBO69n9B5P
This is a few days old, but this is just phenomenal by Erik Lamella from Tottenham:

I see that they made embedding videos much harder. It didn't seem to work for me. Awesome!
Die Classico was a really good game. Rough luck for Dortmund. On to the Barca match...
Galatasaray players pleading with fans to cut the crap after a smoke bomb thrown on the pitch.
And...
It's instantly 2-0 Dortmund after the set piece to restart play.
Serves them right.
Isn't galatasaray's stadium known as "hell"? Those Turkish ultras don't fuck around.
Yep. Ultra goon was talking to players on sidelines trying to get it figured out. Fkn crazy. Glad I switched from Real Madrid match.
Game was in getmany
Arsene's arsenal comedy and city's european woes: as regular as an over-fibered senior citizen...
City were poor today. Unprofessional.
FA Cup!

Aldershot v Portsmouth yesterday was good.
Today's Stevenage at Maidstone United was great! Good game with good goals.
A joy to watch a game played in a small ground with supporters standing right on the sidelines. Good tv coverage - fewer cameras but great commentary. You could hear the coaching staff and fans shouting.
I love early rounds of FA Cup, as well as Championship, League One.

La Pulga!!!! Breaking the all time la liga record in style today with a hat trick. 253 goals in 288 games. Not bad, not bad at all.
Still waiting for Suarez to get on the board, but he's been handing out stylish assists left and right.
Filthy hat trick from Messi today. He's hit three in the last four games. Should be a good week of champions league football.
Oh, and Ronaldo's dive on Saturday was embarrassing.
Whoa? Three hat tricks in 4 games? He and CR7 are on fire.
Sergio Busquets was appalledQuote:

Ha. Nice
Ramsey had an absolute screamer for arsenal today. Where is this form on the weekends?
Yeah that was sweet.
Great set piece goal by StevieG and stupid red card by Marcovic in the Liverpool game.
Ramsey strike was nice. 99x out of 100 that ends up in the 30th row.
Anyone playing bpl fantasy football?
