He's not even the first Sheikh Mansour Team manager to spend big money, which makes his acting as if they're in any position to haggle look utterly ludicrous
Is this a coded crybawling about Citeh getting Levyed on Walker ?? Cheer up Pep luv, you haven't had hip surgery yet.
I watched some of the Arsenal match.....hoping for some schadenfreude. They conceded another 24 shots but won 3-0 with two goals against 10 men in the last 10 minutes.
Ridiculous, but I can just about accept Russia as part of Europe given that it does account for such a large part of Europe's total area. Kazakhstan has some part of it to the west of the Ural mountains, but not much. Astana is further east than Kabul.
I think this might explain a few things... Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke invested his own money on transfers this summer rather than rely on the club's self-sustaining model to fund the deals.
I want them to do well in the competition. In fact, equally as well as last season would be just perfect.
The only thing missing is the quality of opponent in the group stages (so they can seriously rotate their squad while CL participants cannot) .
Of course, this has nothing to do with allowing The FA to keep pretending everything is kosher about a certain stadium in the Manchester area...
If Jovic or Haller were still at Frankfurt, I'm convinced we wouldn't have won the game. We could easily have been 2 or 3 goals down before Willock got the opener. Good win at a hostile stadium vs last year's Europa semi-finalists, but there's still loads of work to do.
18 mins GOAL - Man City 5-0 Watford Seriously? 18 minutes? Could this be the quickest Watford sacking ever?
Leeds concede an injury time equalizer to Derby If only they had a pacy winger on the bench to stretch Derby's back line late in the game, instead of dumping him in the U23s...
Just been watching the Granada Barca match. Second best bit, after 2-0 to Granada, was Roberto Soldado putting his foot into Pique’s stomach. Nearly choked on my beer.
