  1. Just saw the highlights there, some performance by that Simmons.
  2. The Franco stuff is an interesting but weird one. He was actually originally an Atletico Madrid fan but eventually wanted Real Madrid to succeed (once they became the top dogs) as it looked good for his regime to have such a great side in Europe. However domestically, I'm pretty sure that was one of Barcelona's most successful periods. I can't say I'm a massive fan of either really. I think Real Madrid fans are too spoilt and they're more concerned with pigeon-holing superstars into their side than building a proper team. Barcelona I find arrogant when they accuse others of not playing "the right way" when they have one of the highest wage bills in all of sport and spend hundreds of millions on transfers as well. Along with all the tax-evasion stuff. Plus their are loads of bandwagoners on the internet who claim to support them who are just as self-entitled and arrogant as Man Utd fans. They're both two fairly strange clubs. You'll hear ex-players say that their fans treat games similar to a theatre where they are there to be entertained, and the majority aren't as passionate as other fans. I like the other sides. Valencia and Bilbao mainly, but also Sevilla and Atletico.
  3. Yea Real Madrid fans are some of the biggest fuds going. Although it was good of them to clap off Totti in his last ever Champions League game.
  4. The two ties I would have handpicked to see personally so that's a great draw. Think this will be another real test of how far Spurs have come this season, and I can't recall seeing a Utd vs Liverpool game in Europe before. Has there been one in the past 20 years or so? Fancy Liverpool to go through, but hopefully that won't result in Van Gaal's sacking as I don't want the fun to end just yet.
  5. Saw the game as well, think they'll be the first team to retain the CL in it's current format. Their front 3 are probably the top 3 players in the world on current form. Fair play for them for pulling off that penalty. Remember Arsenal trying it against City and getting blasted by Danny Mills after they messed it up. How times have changed for them lot.
  6. I can definitely recall conceding a lot of goals from counter-attacks after sending Samba and Nelsen forward for every set-piece.
  7. That's interesting as I gave up on Justified myself after about 5 episodes. Maybe I'll give it another go. Just started Mr Robot though and need to catch up on that first.
  8. That was my impression at the time. Think him and M Diouf played up top together against West Brom in a 3-1 away win in K**n's first victory. Scored 2 then got sent off and never played again if I recall. I think the two of them played up top together anyway.
  9. Wasn't suited to the lone striker role. Was someone who relied on link-up play with a partner. Wasn't a world beater obviously but I think he wasn't given the proper opportunity to showcase his ability. We were never going to play two up top though and therefore it was a stupid purchase.
  10. Chris Gayle is a monster. A century off 46 balls in the IPL. Then does Ronaldo's celebration haha.
  11. Can't see Mayweather losing. Adopts his style to beat any opponent, just can't envisage someone getting the upperhand over him. Can't see anyone getting knocked out though. I wish this fight happened 5 years ago but I'm buzzing for it all the same, hopefully it lives up to the billing.
  12. Season 3 was the Irish season. Season 4 is where it really starts to get good imo. Breaking Bad is the greatest drama ever made.
