It's a big "if" but I think if Ready Steady Raheem has his head screwed on right, he'll have a great season playing on the wing city.

My biggest fear is that arrogant s.o.b. LvG is going to play Memphis all over the place especially if things don't go right.

My son played pick up at an organized event today. HIs squad of 11-12 year olds won all their 5 games against other 11-12 year olds & 2 teams of 13-14 year old. All the kids were either A ball kids or academy level players... Proud to say my boy played really really well. Got some compliments from the coaches at the private school that hosted the event & also from ex MLSer/DC United player Santino Quaranta. Santino's father also told me he played well...

As a Liverpool supporter, I'm satisfied with the sale of Raheem but I don't have faith in them to bring in a striker who will perform will in the league. I know they've been rumored to be in for Benteke but I'm not sure if he fits Rodgers system. Can't hate on Raheem for wanting to get paid and play for a team that has a better chance of winning trophies right now but he could have went about it a lot better.

Anybody else watching the Mexico guat game?

I am, its a **** show and Mexico sucks.

Im hoping guat can pull this out with a draw. It's going to be tough though I think. Seems like Mexico is getting somewhat closer to scoring.

I'd love to see Guatemala pull something off but that red nipped that idea in the bud. This will more than liky end in a draw.

That red was so weak too...

Anyone planning on hitting up Euro 2016?

My pops and I were baffled that after all the diving and rough tackles, the ref decides to send him off.

Crossbar is the real MVP right now

 

[dragicon]

I was hoping that the ball deflected into the goal off the Mexican lying on the ground in the offsides position. That would have been hilarious.

I would go if I can get tickets at a reasonable price.

 

[dragicon]

Well, it's sadly satisfying seeing Trinidad and Tobago on top of the group

 

[eracism]

Guatemala style football. 0 shots on goal, 25 fouls, and 20% possession.

 

[ROYGBiV]

Mexico b *** TT to win the group.we got this. Gio should start up top with Vela...

 

[evolution fight]

Seemed like there was a bounty on vela's head
Mexico showed no creativity, kept knocking on the door but couldn't materialize anything outside of a few good plays. So much for being in the 'easy' group

Haha

Mexico had some decent chances.
That bad giveaway early on was probably guatemalas only chance to score the whole game

Seems like Chelsea hasn't done much of anything regarding signings. Need some transfer action to hold me over.

In all seriousness,fwiw you guys keep being linked with Pedro and Begovic...

 

[eracism]

Chelsea ---> Aranguiz

Exactly.

My bus partner was telling me first batch already went on sale, and they moved hella quick. I'm not sure if I'll be able to secure tickets.

Chelsea doesn't need much really, do they?

Surely one or two signings to tweak the impressive squad they already have is all that's necessary.

I'm not expecting Roman x Mourinho to go willy nilly this summer. One or two well planned signings is all they need.

I agree...not sure about their depth but Chelsea already have a very strong first eleven...

all these quality midfield signings means no more Rooney experiment in midfield

anyway,here's my predicted first eleven:

[COLOR=#red] whoever-the-hell-is-playing-in-goal

Darmian Smalling Rojo Shaw

Schweinsteiger Carrick Blind

Di Maria Rooney Memphis

subs: Lindegaard,Jones,Valencia,Schneiderlin,Herrera,Fellaini,Mata,Young,Wilson[/COLOR]

 

[eiddyfouw]

Schneiderlin will probably start over Blind, because that midfield combo would be ridiculously slow.

i hear you man,but Blind was one of Utd's most consistent performer last season...his reading of the game and composure is
the problem last season was having so much possession but not creating enough goalscoring chances...hopefully Memphis' arrival and Rooney reverting to striker would change that...

it's still a nice selection headache to have though hopefully everyone can be happy with LvG's rotation...
