Official Football Thread. Season - 13/14

I know it's just pre season & new coaches always need a few months at least to settle & work on their methods in the new club but United still kinda suck so far...

Even in pre-season, really? our youngsters are looking on-point, fit and mixing into the team well, they've been our best performers whilst everyone else is getting fit, also without 6-7 1st team squad players.

Doesn't help that Milan's management is just trash.

Most of the presidents & CEO's of the football clubs from the old regime are nearly insane & that sometimes makes the most beautiful league shitty to be honest.
I totally agree with about Milan... their off field affairs & as you said the management as a whole has been ridiculous for too long!

Yeah man, it's like...they've done nothing to bolster the squad since 2007. Not to mention Allegri just seems like an incompetent pussy.

Allegri brought the title back & it felt he was the right man but he's done some ridiculous decisions from then on so I kinda agree with you. I won't even comment on that gigantic CEO guy & his right hand man the president. Palermo's president was the biggest jester of them all though... I'm kinda glad they got relegated 'cuz this circus was definitely downgrading the whole Seria A league.

Youngsters have been red hot indeed, esp. Lingard... but United usually wins most of those games with ease. It's always without 6-7 starters at this period of the year too.
I know it's just pre season & I even mentioned it but I fear United will have the typical for Moyes slow to bad start of the season. Hopefully I'm wrong.

What ya'll think of Gareth Bale? Real Madrid is supposedly quite interested, and willing to pay big.



Speed, technique and a hell of a shot (he's "only" 24 too)

True Allegri managed to win a Scudetto but Serie A's quality was pretty bleh at that time imo. Lol Palermo's president is a nutcase.

I can't wait for the new season... it's all set for Roma to kick ass.

What ya'll think of Gareth Bale? Real Madrid is supposedly quite interested, and willing to pay big.

Bale's amazing & both Real & United want him really bad & did insane offers for him but Tottenham still resits that. I think they'll get a hold on him for one more year.

[Tornado]

Bale isn't quite there yet, he still can improve. He should stay at least another season, yeah £85 Mil will sort Tottenham out nicely but it's not like there are any ready made replacements or even potential signings they could realistically go for that could join the squad and build it. Usually Levy is a hard bastard with these deals, can't see no difference here

s he worth it? To be blunt, not a chance. This is not to disparage Bale’s ability: he is a fabulous footballer; quick, strong and shoots with a ferocity of a cannon. But worth more than Cristiano Ronaldo? No way. By the time Ronaldo joined Real Madrid, he had played at three major tournaments with Portugal, won the Champions League, a hat-trick of Premier Leagues and an FA Cup for good measure. He had been the decisive influence on a title race and been Manchester United’s main man. With the greatest respect to Tottenham, the pressure of playing for them and the pressure that goes with being a United player is incomparable. To be brutal, if Bale’s value was truly comparable to Ronaldo, he would have carried Tottenham into the top four last season. He is outstanding but he does not deserve a mind-boggling price tag.

Funny how everyone calls Neymar overrated, but not Bale (I'm not saying he is) , even though Neymar also have done lots of things for his team and for Brazil.

[SajN]

Messi doesn't talk shit or dive


But yeah, I see what you mean. Neymar is a little show-off with his styles, hair and the way he plays, and it seems like most people don't like that, and just start calling him overrated because of those things.

[SajN]

Oh, right, I misunderstood



Messi and Neymar are (hopefully) gonna be dangerous. But I am afraid Real Madrid are gonna be pretty dangerous themselves if they get Bale

Bale is overrated, but neymar gets put above bale and on the same level as messi or ronaldo when has never had a good defense in front of him.

But you don't have a problem with Ancelotti

Anyway, people have made this bigger than it actually is. It's a great test for both teams, it will make us (&them) know what to tweak.
But in all honesty, I wanna crush Mourinho

I have no problem with Ancelotti, that's right.

I've decided who I want to win: Real Madrid
Because I hate Mourinho, and dislike Chelsea, so I want them to lose.
Plus I gotta support the team from La Liga
