  7. madvillain liked Dervos's post in the thread Spaghetti Weston: McKennie at Juventus.

    Yeah, he's definitely a core player. And he sort of gets to play the same role/position every game, so that's a nice change from his...

    He might not be the "main man" but he has the 3rd most starts and minutes for Juventus this season among field players. That seems like...

  14. madvillain liked crews46's post in the thread They Needed a Minivan but Got a Gio: Reyna at Nottingham Forest (Olf Borussia Dortmund).

    I interpret that to mean that BVB loaned Gio out to get more game fit and to see if he can go 90 in a tough league so that they can...

    For some reason I can see Man U coming in with a big bid. Just a gut feeling.
