Navas is over the anxiety issues he did have, That is why he is now playing for the Spain NT team - Although don't think he would leave Spain fulltime though
 
Chelsea wrapping up their summer business now. Cesar A. from Marseille is in.

Just need to clear out Benayoun, Malouda, et al in the next week now.

Couple Thoughts:

- I wouldn't be shocked if Jesus Navas finished out his football career for Sevilla. It's not just the anxiety issues (cue Royce White) but also an extreme case of homesickness. It's highly unlikely Navas leaves Spain for the Premier League, ever.

- RDM and the Chelsea board must have loved what they saw from Moses in the season opener. Lots of creativity and dangerous balls in wide-play for Wigan against Chelsea last weekend.

- Supercopa: Alexis doesn't fail to cement his recent reputation for diving. As a Madridista, I'm actually content with the result. Two valuable away goals despite horrible play and no influence on the style of the match. Barca controlled tempo, possession, and all the significant build-up play. The Di Maria goal was a lucky break heading into the home-leg on Wednesday. We'll have to play a lot better to secure the Supercopa on aggregate. I could realistically see a 2-1 result in our favor, only if we improve. Marcelo in for Coentrao, Pepe in for Albiol (if he's fit), and Di Maria in for Callejon. I'm okay with Benz up top, Pipa off the bench. Not opposed to playing Coentrao out-of-position at RB just to keep him on the pitch and see Arbeloa off.
 
Dortmund won 2-1 at home against W. Bremen in the opening game of the season...Reus and Gotze got the goals for the champions...

BPL?

I'm assuming that's for "British" Premier League?

If so, I watch approximately 4-5 games per weekend. Not just for fantasy reasons lol

I really enjoy watching 4 or so clubs even though I'm a fan of United.
 
If it were up to me Moses would play striker with Mata behind him and Ramires and Hazard on the wings. Unfortunately its not up to me so Torres will be unchallenged at the striker position for the forseeable future. :rolleyes

Really interested to see how Oscar and Marin figure into this as well.
