2010-2011 Soccer Season

[Foster]

I know there are a few of us around these parts that enjoy their footy.

I'll start of by saying Man U looked terrible today. How do you draw Rangers at home?!?!?!?!?!

[DirtyKash]

Montreal Impact, b*tches!

Barca lost their previous game, at home to freaking Hercules.

also worth noting that Man City spent £126 million on imported players yet are currently looking up at 7 teams in the standings.

When will they learn?
City can't be the team to buy everyone, it doesn't work.

As a Dodgers fan, it pains me to admit that I long for a return to the days of Fox trying to buy everyone. Sure, it didn't work out, but at least they were able to absorb the losses instead of cutting off the legs of the farm to patch holes on the roster. I would welcome Sheikh Mansour as my team's overlord even if his goal of signing superstars is just to sell jerseys.

Remember this match?
UEFA.com - UEFA Champions League 2010 - Barcelona-Internazionale

Inter's counterattacking tactics meant there were often nine white shirts behind the ball while the European champions tested their version of safe-breaking skills.

Gotta love Mourinho blowing his wad at a chance to park the bus in front of the net.

I'd add Sammy to your list in place of Zlatan.
Inter looks to be on their way to another good season. He'll be a factor.

I agree, they should win their sixth straight Scudetto.

I guess not. Rafa Benitez is clearly no Jose Mourinho.

And Jose Mourinho is no Josep Guardiola.

And Jose Mourinho is no Josep Guardiola.

Maybe not in La Liga, but could Guardiola win the European Cup with FC Porto?

and WTF was FIFA thinking going with Death Valley aka Qatar in 2022?

ESPNsoccernet: Andy Carroll has become the most expensive English player in the history of football after joining Liverpool from Newcastle in a £35 million deal.



In terms of transfer fees, Rafael Van Der Vaart + Mesut Ozil + Sami Khedira + Javier Hernandez = Andy Carroll

[Foster]

Liverpool was pumped to get rid of Torres so they go out and spend all that good money. And I mean all that money, most likely didn't need to be that much, or even close to this.

[realmofotalk]

I think Newcastle fans feel much worse about this deal than Liverpool fans. Not optimistic that the 35 million will go toward anything except paying down Newcastle's debt.

Hey guys, I started a new blog. I'm a big Fulham fan, so I started a Fulham blog. I'd love if you guys took a read. If you don't like it, it's all good, if you do, spread the word!

Let me know what you think!

[realmofotalk]

I concur. Dempsey's made it clear he wants to take his talents a club that can compete for the Champions League. Liverpool is probably the odds-on favorite to land him because of their New England connection.

[NYgiantsfan5689]

I really hope he doesn't leave but I will totally respect his decision if he does
