hahahaha! that was my first thought, too. especially with the graphic he posted . . . a few weeks ago (?) about how many penalties they got and how few they have conceded.
Leicester is the necessary plot twist needed to shake up a stale and bloated digital entertainment series and make more money down the line
bah let them win it...we have seen this before with blackburn, leeds and a few other clubs that had a great year before going back into obscurity.
Actually the interesting thing about the biggest saga in team sports doping was that the Essendon Football Club told their players what they were giving then was legal. Then WADA came along and said nope no matter what they told you, you were responsible for what you did. But it's strongly believed that the club misled the players. But it was the coaches that got the players into this mess.
OK - i did not know that! I recall there was a lot of evidence about the murky nature of the gym culture, the blackmarket suppliers etc etc In a way it's perfect for the clubs because then they can pretend they don't know about it. Footy down under is a joke of course. I went to a rugby school so grew up with a number of guys who became All Blacks. In those days - 1986 - Michael Jones emerged as the most dynamic and powerful no 7 the world had ever seen. The guy was fit as hell. But less than 100kg as he needed to get around the field. Nowadays somehow McCaw can be 10Kg heavier than Jones He must have a really good diet
Sports people take pes to meet the demands if the armchair fan and spectator that satisfies the tv companies etc
So Messi may be implicated in the Panama Papers scandal. Dude really doesn't like the idea of paying taxes.
Ive never made millions obviously, but I don't get the not wanting to pay taxes. Sure they suck, I won a few times gambling and yes that sucks or when you get a bonus but damn man you are making bajillions whats the big fuhkin deal?
From what I gather, to get to that level of richness requires a degree of self-importance that's almost literally unbelievable. People who not you do not exist, and people who have no influence over you do not matter. Then combine that attitude with being psycho-competitive with other rich people, and it doesn't matter what you do anymore.
Right, because we DEFINITELY deserve the title. I think it was the 2nd loss against Chelsea that cemented our status as champions to be.
No it was the one point of nine that Arsenal earned the week of February 28 to March 5. The Red Card in the Tottenham game was particularly damaging. Arsenal came within a last ditch tackle of winning that game while down a man. A win would have been a three point swing, they would be a point behind Tottenham with a game in hand.
So Torres scored and got himself two yellows in a half, and the refs missed a clear red card on Suarez off the ball.
I hope Marcelo is retroactively banned for his cheating, baiting of Arnold today (which the refs missed). There are people in today's game (Diego Costa you listening?) that do this sh1t repeatedly and aren't worthy of being called "professionals". If it were up to me there'd be a 3-strikes-your-out rule. And I mean really OUT.
real doesn't get penalised. especially not against a wolfsburg. that said . . . i happen to agree with your sentiment.
You forgot to mention that former Chelsea shithead at PSG, who just cheats referees into false decisions. There should be, especially for matches this important, special instructions with footages of how certain players cheat for referees. I had such a good time when he was exposed at the WC2014 to be just mediocre player run over by his opponent.
You're absolutely right about David Luiz on all counts. All 3 are cheaters but the difference with the other 2 is that they are actually talented footballers. The occasional headed goal aside, it's hard to figure why anyone would pay Luiz the kind of money he must be making.
