Former World Cup-winner Jorge Valdano has fiercely criticised the style of football produced by Jose Mourinho and Rafael Benitez, http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=428569&cc=5901 what do you guys think? i kind of agree with him, the semi-final games between chelsea vs. liverpool were pretty boring.
I don't know, but Valdano is a genius. I directly correlate RM lack of titles to his leaving that club. And he's right, apart from players like Messi and Ronaldinho and formerly Zidane. The game is getting more and more predictable and direct lacking imagination. Before long you won't be able to tell the diference between soccer playing robots (they already have to dogs in Japan) and pro-players.
Thanks, hommie. Last couple of games have been rough. Can't wait to get back to Chicago. Being a Bulls fan since I came to the US (1991, the Michael years) I was drilled when we signed an Argentinian to the squad.
Yeah, this series has been awful. Hopefully playing at home can do something. There were rumors that we were going to sign Luis Scola last year too (his agent even said that they had agreed to our offer), but San Antonio wouldn't trade his rights. I've read they may be shopping around his rights this off season though, so we may be able to make it happen. It would be nice to finally have an offensive post presence, plus another Argentinian to keep "Chapu" company.
We need someone to fiercely criticize the appaling lack of fire in the international players on current NBA squds. Gasol, stand up. Yao, stand up, (wow, you are tall). Nowitzki... Nowitzki... has anyone seen Dirk Nowitzki?? Being asian, the Yao one hurts. He's way too nice. I want him to grow a beard and get straight evil on the low block.
