Madridistas All Over Copa And Euros Collide While Colombians Dominate - The Other Teams Thread

I stopped playing almost a decade ago but I wouldn't wear anything but Predators. I wore old ones until they ran ragged while having newer ones. Those Mercurial Vapors were shit.

 

Jack Grealish in Aston Villa's promotion season refused to change his boots as they were his 'lucky' ones. It became a thing that people were looking out for them each week to see if he had finally changed them








More brain cells in them boots than his head i reckon

 

Mizuno for me, the shape of the boot fits my foot very well and the leather are very good quality. Doesn't hurt that they don't completely redesign boots every 12 months to get more sales too.

 

Man same here. I loved my old predators, they don't make them the same anymore. Jude's new predators look very cool, curious if they make them the same as the Zidane/Beckham ones.

 

Nike shoes never really fit me well. I was always an Adidas guy. Something about the Preds had the perfect combination of style and class never mind the quality.

Adidas started to follow Nike's tackier styling in the 2010s but by then I stopped playing.

 

I miss him already. Players like him and Carvajal really elevated our squad from an intelectual point of view.

 

Wow if true

The original 115 alleged charges given to Manchester City have been extended to a total of 130.

I hope they get relegated and Guardiola stays.

 

Pep will end the season looking like Quasimodo.

 

It's almost as if he's their jail out of free card.

 

Liverpool with a really strong XI, this could get ugly for Girona.

 

Bryan Gil how clumsy...

 

Sometime in the future? Hmmm, why not? He gives his attackers a lot of freedom and is flexible, I like how he has adapted to losing most of his best players this season.

 

A manager who can adapt to losing his best player (like say Benzema), is flexible about playing style and gives attackers a lot of freedom rather than systematic identify players are defined by.


A manager like that might actually do well in Madrid, but it seems like we are stuck with Carlo.

 

Leverkusen with late winner vs Inter. They are 2nd in CL table now.

 

I did the math and 16 points might not be enough for them to get a place in the top 8.

 

Any chance he has a place at Madrid?

 

It might depend on goal difference. Currently there are several 4- and 5-way ties on points throughout the CL table, so GD really matters.

And I agree - someone with 16 points will fall outside the top 8. Of those currently in the top 8, it is difficult to see more than 1 of them falling short of 16 pts. And Arsenal seem a safe bet to hit 16 pts. On top of that, Atleti and Milan have pretty nice schedules from here on, so quite capable of getting 7 points from their last 3. And Lille not out of the question either.

But picture will be clearer in a few hours.

 

This has been rather effortless for Atleti so far.
