Jute Posted January 3, 2016 Report Posted January 3, 2016 Benzema just now. Sheer class. This has been a treat these last few days, having the time to watch a ton of football and it all being good. Watched more these last two weeks than I have all season. Brilliant stuff. Brilliant team goal for Madrid. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted January 3, 2016 Report Posted January 3, 2016 Brilliant team goal for Madrid. Certainly was. It was a great finish but the set up play before it was sublime. Quote
Jute Posted January 5, 2016 Report Posted January 5, 2016 Benitez punted by Madrid and Zidane promoted from the B team until the end of the season. Thought Benitez was an odd appointment at the time but still a bit surprised he has gone this quickly. Quote
Tyrant Posted January 5, 2016 Report Posted January 5, 2016 I guess they've got something planned with Pep? Although it will never surprise me to see Madrid punt any manager. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted January 5, 2016 Report Posted January 5, 2016 As Ramon Calderon just said, they needed to bin Rafa by the 15th Jan to save the club paying two years salary to him rather than one. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted January 5, 2016 Report Posted January 5, 2016 It's also unacceptable with the firepower that they have to go to Valencia and fail to beat Gary Neville. He simply had to go after that. Quote
Edinburghdon Posted January 7, 2016 Report Posted January 7, 2016 I guess they've got something planned with Pep? Although it will never surprise me to see Madrid punt any manager. Rumour is they approached him and were knocked back. Not hugely surprising really. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 I'm not as down on Giroud than you either. I like strong forwards like him and think he's had a tougher press than he may deserve. Three weeks later and after 9 goals in his last 9 games, the second half one tonight being awesome, Giroud may finally be producing the results he should be capable of. Another observation from tonight's 3-3 is that Cech may be as finished as I suspected. He's never been the same with the hat. He was world class before the head injury but never the same since, neither for Chelski nor now at Arsenal. Quote
rocket_scientist Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 Howson for Norwich tonight GOTS for me. Quote
Jute Posted January 14, 2016 Report Posted January 14, 2016 Athletico and Real both handed transfer bans to cover summer and next January windows. Would expect both to be very active in this window in response. Who will want to take on Real in the summer when they cannot sign any players for a year. Quote
Tyrant Posted January 14, 2016 Report Posted January 14, 2016 Athletico and Real both handed transfer bans to cover summer and next January windows. Would expect both to be very active in this window in response. Who will want to take on Real in the summer when they cannot sign any players for a year. I expect them both (more so Real) to be active during the summer and next January too. Just as Barca were during their transfer embargo. Quote
BigAl Posted January 15, 2016 Report Posted January 15, 2016 It kind of feels a little like wanting your mother in law to drive your new jaguar over a cliff but..... c'mon the Arabs Quote
