They have to shoot him :p:
I think all you can do is hope he has a bad day :bandit:
Neymar doesn't do a torres ! :D
next has to be Suarez's turn :p
Wow. What a goal from Leo... haha
So much pleasure to watch. (except for Juve fans)
It must be a Suarez goal next though.
Messsiiiiiiiiii :D :D :D
Steve, watching Messi, is a pleasure for all football fans, Juve's included ! ;)
^I know..except some ManUtd and Madrid fans (those who do not have an objective bone in their bodies) We are privileged to be watching this genius day in day out.
I watched every Barca game this season (and most seasons) on tv but the Copa final wasn't :eek: !?!?
Instead we had the FA cup, Juve's serie A game and DFB Pokal live
crazy. pissed off.
And you, Steve, Storm and Ody are his priests.Quote:

Did anyone see Alexis goal for Arsenal in the FA Cup final? He nearly broke the net!
I saw that. I'm happy for him as he was always a tireless worker and gave it his all (if a little short on quality at the top end)
He left this (likely to win a treble) team and went to Arsenal.. :uhoh:
but he at least got some joy in his season personally and for the team.
Always liked Alexis.
That was a shell fired from a howitzer. Poor old Shay didn't stand a chance with that.Quote:

The fact that Sydney had two goals disallowed is pretty good reason why even in a friendly, The Special One was positively fuming. I think that he expected the English Champions to run roughshod over a dinky little team from the colonies who only two days before had lost 1-0 to Spurs. Mourinho is a cranky man; even on holiday.
Brisbane Roar 3 - Villareal 0
Ouch... that's embarrassing.
Given the limited role Alexis had at Barca it's quite amusing that their fans think they actually can assess his quality! The difference for Alexis now is that the team is passing to him, rather than the anointed one. Of course he has far more opportunity to shine with the ball than without it. That Barcelona preferred Suarez to Sanchez says much about the balance between ambition and ethics / sportsmanship. I am personally relieved that Arsenal failed (if they were ever serious) in the attempt to sign Suarez.Quote:

Thats not that limited.
Limited role?
Mintex, during his 3 seasons at Barca, he practically played every game. Barca fans like me will always remember him fondly (especially for his great goal in the clasico) an his hardwork at all times, but all of us also saw his lack of quality in terms of finishing chances - especially when compared to Messi or Villa or Pedro during that period.
Yes sure, he has a bigger role at Arsenal but he was never a bit part player at Barca. You can't be just passing to Messi and still get 20 La Liga goals which he got lseason before last. Infact during that year Messi was out for 2 months so Barca completely depended on Alexis and Neymar to score goals. He wore the famous #9 as well. Not so limited then.
I can also say that it is amusing that Arsenal fans can assess his quality after just one (although great) season. Plenty of people have had a good season and then not so good which is also what happened to him in Barcelona btw.
Perhaps you meant the freedom to roam and dictate play - on the pitch? Well he mostly played on one side of the front 3 or as a central striker but Messi obviously had complete freedom of movement, but then you cannot have everybody with the same tactical role can you?
As for Suarez, well no way can I condone his behaviour in the past but he has been very good in the red and blue shirt, and do you really believe that Arsenal would not have signed him if they could have? Just for upholding ethics and sportsmanship?
I think certain players suit different leagues style of play better than others.
Sanchez has adapted well to the premier league, where Falcao has struggled.
Looks like Falcao will have another shot at it with Chelsea?
Also Falcao was coming back from a bad injury directly into the premier league, perhaps that played a part.
New FIFA rankings

Belgium lol, they are good but nowhere near 2nd best in the world....these rankings are usually pretty stupid anyways like most rankings are - do friendlies count in these?
Portugal better than France, Spain and England :erm: okay the last one? Italy not in 10, well I hope they get their act together by next year's euros.
Italy not in Top 10 ??FIFA ranking is as real as their honesty...
Back to CL final, Chiellini has been ruled out, due to an injury. Even more difficult for Juve now :(

they left out a digit, in case anyone wondered what the joke was.

In fact, discarding friendlies which don't count towards FIFA rankings, Belgium have only lost four matches going back to 2012 and two of those were to Germany. In the same period, Italy have lost eight.
