ESPN reporting Ibrahimovic has agreed a deal with Manchester United. Fuck.

The labor protests are getting out of hand as well aren't they? ESPN had to abandon their Euros set.

It would go really, really bad. Not everyone is willing and able to effectively use a gun, and if everyone had a gun in that nightclub, it could have turned out worse just as easily as better. You're in a confined space with low lighting crammed full of people who have been drinking and all have loaded weapons. That seems like a disaster to me. The shooter opens fire, a couple people see it and shoot at him and then others don't know who the original shooter is or if there's still a threat. You may not be able to get rid of all guns, but you're making it insanely hard for people to get guns. If it's harder to get a gun, then they may reconsider their method or even not carry out the plan in the first place.

There had been grumblings about our old boy Schürrle going to BvB. Maybe they knew about the Reus injury already and have been looking around for a replacement that can also be utilized in other areas of the attack once Reus comes back.

Imagine what he could be had he not missed all those matches. I think he'd be getting the praise as the next best player to Messi and Ronaldo.

Since 12/13 is when his injuries started to rise. He's missed a total of 42 matches for BVB since joining, and he's missed the 2014 World Cup and this year's Euros. http://www.transfermarkt.com/marco-reus/verletzungen/spieler/35207

I think they would have advanced out of the group had they had a few of the players who dropped out, but yeah, they have. I think a lot of people think it's time for Dunga to leave and bring someone else in.

Completely agree. I was just saying that Neymar isn't the only one the team is missing. Haiti were beaten 7-1. They should have beaten Peru but they didn't need to and we're really eliminated by a Terrie handball no-call. That doesn't take away from the fact that they disappointed in the Ecuador and Peru games.

Brazil left a total of 6 players out of the squad. It was far from their strongest lineup.

What a hit!

According to Di Marzio, Chelsea inquired about Payet, but it doesn't look like he'll be leaving anytime soon. http://gianlucadimarzio.com/news-cat/west-ham-fissato-il-prezzo-di-payet-e-il-chelsea-ci-ha-pensato/

Yep, the only way he'd be sold is if he throws a fit (doesn't seem like that type of player) and someone offered an insane amount of money. That said, imagine Hazard on the left and Payet on the right

The Uruguay coach said WC Qualifiers were more important than the Copa America Centenario. He probably got a call from Barcelona telling him that he should think about resting Suarez longer *winkwink*

I like that he'll get back and defend, but it drives me crazy when I see him take a run and then just stop and stand over the ball, killing any chance of a counter attack.

What happened to this?

I wonder when/if we'll see anything official before the Adidas contract is officially over.

IMO, the only thing he did was knock a few good free kicks in to keep us alive in the Champions League. He wasn't great during the course of play.

I don't think he'll ever be a Chelsea player, but I would much rather have him than Willian. Willian has always been nothing more than average. He won POY because he stayed average when everyone else went to shit.

I could be wrong just as easily as you, but the worst I see him is as a serviceable sub off the bench.

If Matic does leave, I can see it being both.

And therein lies the problem. If this was Conte's second summer, we'd have an idea of how we're playing and how players will fit. Right now, we have no clue if players are being brought in as replacements or to fit a new system. It's hard to judge how players will fit, so we're going to have to go on their past performances. That said, to get an idea of how he'll play with a team that keeps the ball more, maybe we'll be able to see how he plays for France.

Move along. Crap rumor like I always thought. German Newspaper Ruhrnachtrichten reports BVB deny the rumors of Aubemeyang's transfer.

It's early. Be patient.

As much as I love Reus, I don't want him at Chelsea. He's got a bad injury record and it would only get worse in the Premier League.
