Football Season 2016/2017

[Valeron]

They have had so many near shots.

[Tommy T]

Barca needed to give UEFA a larger brown envelope.

[Valeron]

A whole lot of shots just wide by Barca. They needed their accuracy boots on today. Not good enough.

Want to see Monaco win the whole thing

As long as Juve win it with a Ramos own goal, I'd be down with that

Sorry to say but Barcelona was atrocious. Nervous from the get go, always bitching (need to bring in yellows for bitching) and generally demanding a lot without putting the effort necessary. That was an impressive performance by juventus. Constantly organised, always prepared. They make defending look interesting and so damn easy.

Hope Monaco do it. And I hope we get anything other than a Madrid final.

Wow not heard that one before

Whoever takes over at Barcelona, I hope they try move away from the diving/theater. Unlikely till video tech comes in but its quite a bore having all that talent on the pitch and they spend half the time tripping over. Good work Juve, solid team.

And Neymar is a professional faceplanter. Been a few instances where he could finish his run in the box and give an assist but insisted on diving. Fucking makes me scream at times.

Pretty much no danger Bobby Carlos has seen Ashley Young play a full game.

[RobertoCarlos]

are you comparing neymar/saurez to ashley young?

My dear they are not in the same league quite literally. Ones a hatchet man, the other 2 are talented players that bend the rules to its very limit

[Henx]

In my opinion Barca has more work to do than Bayern or atleast harder things to fix. They still concede quite easily, the midfield has been shit and sometimes MSN can't carry the team (for example yesterday).

[Cren]

Players association in England have already made their choices for best eleven this season.



Goalkeeper - David de Gea (Manchester United)

Defender - Kyle Walker (Tottenham Hotspur)
Defender - David Luiz (Chelsea)
Defender - Gary Cahill (Chelsea)
Defender - Danny Rose (Tottenham Hotspur)

Midfielder - Dele Alli (Tottenham Hotspur)
Midfielder - Eden Hazard (Chelsea)
Midfielder - N'Golo Kanté (Chelsea)
Midfielder - Sadio Mane (Liverpool)

Forward - Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur)
Forward - Romelu Lukaku (Everton)

Ashley Young may be one of the worst players in terms of diving but I gotta agree that watching Barcelona, they have half a team of Youngs.

I just read that the Eredivisie (dutch league) will feature video referees from the season of 18/19. And while reading this i found out that Bundesliga will already have it from next season. Not sure how i managed to miss these news.

http://www.bundesliga.com/en/news/Bu...-18-430690.jsp

Here are the 4 situations where video technology will be used in the Bundesliga:

1. Irregularities in the case of a goal decision (a foul, handball and offside)

2. In penalty box situations where the referee unjustifiably awarded a penalty or not

3. For offences that should lead or should have led to a red card

4. In cases of mistaken identity over a yellow or red card.

Not really sure whats so special about Cahill, not that he's done much worse/better than anyone else. I don't think you can argue with the rest of it. I'd have both strikers over Ibrahimovic even though he has been immense.

[durrtygoodz]

Cahill in ToTY when he isn't even 2nd best at Chelsea, hmm.

Mane over Alexis, hmm.
