Never question Mou.

Okay, maybe not EVERY match up, but the top 9 teams vs any team is pretty entertaining.

What?

I said the other day Alexander Lacazette of Lyon in Ligue 1 would be good and inexpensive. I don't want Chelsea to splash out 50M+ for anyone. Also, Max Meyer of Schalke would be a good choice.

Alex Morgan, my wife, is Little Horse! Lol

The little Horse is gaining momentum! Also, need a laugh? Check this out haha. Bitter asshole.

I wanna see it too!

Pray for Norwich.

I think Newcastle will come out aggressive. I think they'd be okay losing 3-1 or so. Moral victory as long as it's relatively competitive?

and shaw will have to take time to accomodate playing for a top-club with much more pressure and more games etc. Rodriguez is more experienced though. and I would say the change between swiss-league and german league is far bigger than between EPL and Bundesliga. Look at Mata and Co: they where (physically) much much less made for the EPL and still they adapted with ease. Someone like Navas, who was homesick, adapted to the league with ease and he is physically far less compatible than Rodriguez. This argument is just made up I think and a lot of players have proven it in the last years. English league isnt that much harder or faster than other leagues anymore and players integrate themselves with ease. Exactly. Switching from Bundesliga to EPL isn't that drastic. People like to make the EPL seem like a rugby league or something when it's not. Top players can adjust with ease.

Mou says he will appear tomorrow.

What 5 teams? the current top 5 is Bayern, Leverkusen, BVB, Schalke and 'Gladbach. Bayern are up by 13 points for a reason - while BVB were great last season, injuries have ruined this season for them. And the others are either decent or just slightly above teams. Schalke lost 6-0 over 2 games to Chelsea, and Leverkusen also got hammered by Man utd to further prove my point. La liga at this moment is a stronger league. Are we talking EPL or Bundesliga? There are 4 Bundesliga teams in the final 16 of the UCL. The 4th place team in La Liga is Bilbao who finished 12th last year and haven't played in the UCL since 1998. The 5th place team, Villareal, was in the 2nd division of Spain last year. The other Spanish team that was in the UCL, Real Sociedad, got hammered in every game they played in Europe and had 1 point in group play. As a whole, Bundesliga>La Liga. There are more well rounded teams than in La Liga who have 3.

Who? I mean a remember a right-back a few years ago that once might have worn the number, but because he was so bad i think the image of him was curved out of my memory I think it was just a floating mono-brow ? 13?

They have several outstanding attackers(Messi, Agüero, Tevez, Higuain, Lamela, Di Maria), but therit midfield and defense is shit and they never work with decent coaches. Maradona, Sabella, Pekerman... Zabaleta, Mascherano, and Garay are decent. But yea, I can't wait to see their offense though in the WC. Ahh!

He is just a couple of months older than Neymar and he has done nothing major yet. He has never been the focal point of any team (despite playing for BVB and Bayern). Gotze isnt even a regular starter for Bayern and Neymar only needed 2 weeks to beat Pedro, Sanchez and Fabregas for the starting position! Also, La Liga is the weakest of the 5 major leagues? ROFL! Spain is a tougher place than playing for Bayern in the Bundesliga. The fact Barcelona has to face Atletico and Real twice a year is already harder than to beat 5-0 every other opponent in Germany. But I dont need to be having this discussion now. Return 5 years from now and see how foolish you will have look (just like in the Confederations Cup)... Bayern has way more competition than Barca (Pedro and Alexis?) There was never a doubt he wasnt gonna be a starter. Gotze won tge Bundesliga title, played in the UCL and made it to the final while being one of the two main players on that team. And just Cause Bayern beats all the teams doesn't make the league worse than that circus show La Liga. After those 3 teams the skill level falls off. Their are 5 bundesliga teams that are very good. Its much more competitive. We'll see in the World Cup who is the better of the two.

Gotze will be 22 this year........ Hes 21, my bad. To say he's overrated is insane. Neymar is overrated, he went from Brazil to the weakest of the 5 major leagues in the world. Gotze is playing in the BUNDESLIGA and has way more world class experience. He's the future of Bayern.

I'll take it if no one wants it.. Hazard-7, Ramires-6, Matic-5, Oscar-10, Costa-11.

I disagree. The argentinian and the portuguese national teams are simply not good enough. One player could not win a world cup. And what about Ibra? He has never got a chance(and never will) to play in a WC final.. Argentina's team could win the World Cup? Their defense is a bit iffy, but their offense...oh man. They're the Man City of international soccer. Whaaaaat!?! No way. Neur maybe. Neymar maybe. Bale isnt, if he was with Chelsea you wouldn't be saying that. Xavi never makes a bad pass or loses posession. Hummels is a top 5 CB in the world. Negredo isn't that highly rated? Gotze is the one who is completely overrated, he is the one not on par with Hazard and Neymar. To me, in a 5 year time, Hazard and Neymar will be two of the best in the world and Mario Gotze will be a little bit behind in the discussion. If you compare a 10min youtube video of the very best of Maradona and Pelé, the Argentine will win hands down (even Garrincha would). However, career wise, it is not even a debate. Pelé had the greatest career both on a personal level and as far as titles go. Maradona>>>>>>>>>Pele Gotze>Hazard>>>>>>>>Neymar. Gotze is 20!

Bundesliga is not far off from EPL. Besides the one team dominating, 2-5 are all great teams. I like Rodriguez better than Shaw, and he'd probably cheaper.

I agree with that except in respect with Sugar Ray Robinson. You can't say he didn't fight any good competition. True. Basilio, Lamotta, and Fullmer were all great. But what would he have done vs Hagler, Hearns, and Sugar Ray Leonard?

Yeah, Athletico could really count on him tonight. 2-0 down and he got himself booked for kicking out so he's out of the return leg. What's the point of International football if he can play for Spain when he was born and brought up in Brazil? Its crazy. He had the chance to represent his country in a home world cup and he turned it down. As for not starting, He is better then Damiao, Jo and Fred who Brazil usually start so he probably would have. Doesn't really matter about the return leg, they're down 3-0. Also, Hulk could start for Brazil at striker and so could Neymar because I assume Willian will get a starting spot. Costa has been in Spain since 19 and became a man there. Brazil ignored him for the Confederations Cup. He has his reasons for picking Spain. I see no problem with it whatsoever.

LawlWhy is that funny? You don't know what he does in training. Unless you can otherwise prove he's a lazy ass or works less than everyone else, please refrain from using stupid jargon.

WTF, Really? Oscar wearing Drogba's jersey almost brought me to tears. Dont ever take that jersey away from him! OMG!!! Am I the only one who likes Oscar with #11 and Hazard with #17? I like Oscar with 11. Hazard with 7 would be cool. I'm fine with 17 though. Who gets 10 though?

Cavani IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE. PSG just paid a butt load of money for him and we would have to pay even more to get him. Costa is good, but how can he adapt to the EPL? I really like Alexandre Lacazette of Lyon too.

HEY! I'm not IN LOVE with Torres, but i like his dedication and effort.
