:rudy: Team needs Falcao, Zaha, a Nasri type playmaker, and like 3 defenders.

:youngsabo:



Mancini will never be happy until he gets Messi, Ronaldo, Di Maria... if that fails he probably gonna ask for a time machine and try to bring prime Pele back. :pachaha:

Kaka is supposedly going to Flamengo

Just requested tickets to the semi final confeds cup match in Belo Horizonte. There are gonna be 2 group games and 1 semi final at the Mineirao, which their finishing up refurbishment and is looking a beauty btw...

globoesporte - FOTOS: confira novas imagens do Mineirão, já com gramado - fotos em mg

friends of mine bought the group game tickets before the draw and they got stuck with Japan x Mexico and Tahiti x Champions of Africa :laf::laf::laf:

No way that semifinal is gonna be garbage, Spain/Uruguay in 1 group and Brazil/Italy in the other, copped 3 tickets at 70 bucks a pop, win-win.

The thought of Madrid vs United in the round of 16 :ohlawd:

You know Platini won't let that happen. :beli:
why wouldnt he?

he wants the English teams out.

City, gone

Chelsea, almost gone

Arsenal, :russ: :sadcam:

United vs. a Madrid or even a Juve? sure, why not. the match will draw the most attention and ensures no English team wins the champions league this year.

Yea, he hates English teams, but at least have one Engish team in the Last 8 for their viewership.

How Mancini is not sacked yet ?
Ancelloti is in Paris for less than a year and the guillotine is already set for him.

EDIT : Where does Platini hating english teams come from ?

Mancini isn't sacked cos although he's not good enough, they're not dumb enough to give him the boot without having a replacement lined up.

Probably be Mourinho this summer.

Whats the point of sackin Mancini when the only people they would want to replace him arent avaliable as of yet. They still unbeaten in the league and a win vs United on Sunday they go top.

As for PSG, just like all these teams owned by foreign billionaires , the squads are never constructed properly, they just buy for the sake of buyin. Come Jan PSG gunna have Ibra, Menez, Lavezzi, Nene, Pastore, Lucas & whoever else they buy in Jan, thats just far too much individual attackin talent, even more so when Ibra demands the ball all the time and wants play to go thru him

.

He always comes with the sly comments about EPL teams spending more money than everyone else or him talkin about foreign owners and players flooding England’s clubs.

People dont take him seriously on this considering PSG and his Son. Nor does he say anything about how Real & Barca have ruined SPLa Liga.

i dont understand how people are asking how mancini isnt sacked yet. as i said if he was going to be sacked it would've happened.

he wont two trophies two years in a row after 33 without a trophy at all. we dont just toss managers in the bushes without good reason!

[...]

I agree with the unavailability of the replacements... My point was not clear enough. I meant I don't see any pressure on Mancini with those disappointing results. PSG has like 3 losses in a row in the league yet are 1st in their CL group, 4th in the league, still in for the French cup and the owners already angry.

City being built to win trophies (although they only invested in attacking options) but what have they won since 2010 ? A premier league title, that's all ? The squad is worth 400 Mill €... come on.
