WTF do you take of Ozil for Kaka's corpse? Mourinho, is you trollin?

JRTPlaya21 · 10-07-2012, 02:41 PM

I hate Pepe with a passion and if Benz could have finished earlier I think we would have won. I'll take it though.

FA is objecting

I think it's something about a sponsor paying for naming rights and not actually using them. It's BS considering that crap Man City-Etihad deal went through, but whatever. Wonga is kinda ethically ****** up as a company, so that could be playing into it.

If you buy the naming rights surely you can call it what you want. Why would the FA care anyway? They're just being dicks for no reason. And yeah, don't even know how those sort of things are allowed.

Wonga have signed a £4m deal with Newcastle United. Newcastle will have to pay £376.4m back by next year.

Funny that Wonga sponsoring Newcastle should cause so much interest.

I'd advise against any club taking a player on loan from Newcastle now they have Wonga as sponsor.

Russia-Portugal should be a fun game. Kerzha takes the 1-0 lead off a great pass from Faizulin 5 minutes in.

Rosebud, I know you love Samed Yesil, so I thought you might like to know that with the injury to Fabio Borini, he might well get some more game time. The backup role to him is wide open

While I like Borini, n feel for him, this is great news. My biggest worry is that Yesil seems to have left his shooting boots in germany, and that if he doesn't start clicking in the red jersey he's gunna get frustrated. I've heard rumors that the reason Leverkusen sold him so cheaply was in part that he wasn't the easiest kid to work with so keeping his head right is huge. But with his talent, he could end up one of the finest strikers in the world, and I think it's just a matter of time until he starts poking them in for ya, hopefuly that time comes sooner now, rather than later.

Last I hear is that Pacheco might be given first crack... ugh

Lame, if you're not gunna play him, at least let him get his groove going with the reserves.

He's been getting some game time with the academy lads and ressies as I understand it, and our reserves have generally been very impressive.

Rosebud · 10-12-2012, 12:21 PM

That's good to hear. Haven't really heard anything about him other than EL game so I thought he was with the first team, just not playing, kinda like Bittencourt for Dortmund. If he's getting GT that's good, let him get his scoring on track so when he's integrated into the first team he'll be ready to contribute.

MaxV · 10-12-2012, 12:40 PM

Nice win.

I wish Russia would play like this all the time.

They are so inconsistant that I expect a bad result against Azerbajan.

Rosebud · 10-12-2012, 02:23 PM

Ref gives Marco Reus a yellow for getting dragged down in the irish box. Not a minute latter Marco scores the first goal of the game and starts showing up everywhere for the german attack. Kid's so amazing.

EDIT: Reus 2 - Ireland 0. Moral of the story, don't let anyone make Reus angry.
