  1. Moses fucked 2 atacking chances in a row, and now a crucial defensive mistake.
  2. It doesnt make any sense to talk about changing Chelsea badge at this point. The current one was introduced in 2005, so its like 12 years old and its perfect and fine, and thats why it was created, since the old one was bad and flat, and looked like something made on Windows 95 paint. Current one is already a modern badge. I think you wont find a better "logo" in European football than current Chelsea one. So lets not start a talk about any chance of the current badge getting a change in the next 30 years or so. Juventus logo is not a bad "logo", but I think its bad football badge. I've heard some interviews of people behind the design, and it seems it reflects whats behind people running Juventus: they want to make "Juventus" a brand beyond football. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/new-juventus-crest-more-just-9643877 This logo is perfect for this purpose, since its not a "football looking" badge, if you know what I mean. In my opinion Juventus is missing the point here. Ok, every big club want to become "global brands", but they are global football brands in first place. Think about big sports franchises in USA. They don't think beyond the sports. Of course they want to make money as much as possible, for example selling casual clothing, but that casual clothing still will feature some kind of association with a sports. The best way to Juventus think outside football in my opinion, was creating a secondary logo, just like NBA teams, where you get a primary logo, partial logo, secondary logo "a" and secondary logo "b". Those "logos" are used in different situations. In my books changing your football badge to think "beyond football" is not a good idea, since changes in badges should be made to reinforce the football brand, and not the opposite. For example, Arsenal, Chelsea and City are very good examples of teams that had former bad/outdated badges and needed new ones, but the current badges of those teams are "football badges". You look at them and you know you are looking at football teams.
  3. Thats why City changed their logo. The former one was TERRIBLE. That eagle with 3 stars looked like something from a USA military department or a logo created by teenagers for they Call of Duty "e-sports" team. That was easily the most "non football" badge in Premier League. In terms of design the new City badge is one of the most good looking ones in Europe.
  4. Does not make any sense. United was enver in the title race. They are more concerned about top 4 finish. So thinking about Costa is the last thing Mourinho is doing right now.
  5. Conte is not a possession football manager. Kante and Matic are 100% Conte kind of players.
  6. 25 minutes into the 2nd half, Hull completely dominating the actions.
  7. Its looking like Hull will score one soo or late.
  8. Winning this game means we will still be at top of the table even if we lost both games against Liverpool and Arsenal, and with only United and City left to play out of top 6 teams. Must win game.
  9. If it happened as I said, I will start to question his ability to manage his playersm since our best player us now in a situation where his future is in doubt.
  10. Well, is Costa said he was feelling his back, medical staff said he had nothing, and Conte was behind the medical staff, and even told Costa to "go to China", I will start to question Conte ability to manage his players. That game where Costa asked to be substituted and Conte refused was a bad sign, since the game was over, and Costa was not needed to get a positive result at that point. Ok, someone will say "read Pirlo's book" to prove Conte is really good in managing his players, but he is in a different environment. A former Juventus legend working in Italy for Juventus is a different animal than being an italian guy in a english club full of foreign players.
  11. Nike improved a lot in past years in their designs an adopted a nononsensical approach. Just compare the outrageous designs of 2010 World Cups witht he ones in last year's Euro.
  12. Im the only one who thinks the current blue kit is a classic one? If not for the little lions, probably the best kit Adidas produced for us. I wasnt a big fan when it was revealed, but I really loved the stripes in the sides instead of shoulders, and the full kit look really great.
  13. Carroll just scored a wonder goal, and no one is talking about that. If that was from Ibra for United, that would make top stories for every paper, and with those silly graphics explaining how the goal was scored.
  14. Luiz pocketed Vardy. I wont be surprised if Leicester is relegated at the end of the season, this was easily the most harmless team we faced in recent games. We managed to score 3 (untill now) with a lazy an unispiring performance.
  15. Hazard was invisible for the whole game, except for that assist in the first minutes, he is part of the bad moments, not a victim. I would say he is having a "lazy" performance.
  16. Great goal. Both Pedro and Willian are having a decent game, and even Matic, while Hazard is just complaning for most part of the game, but most of the forum are saying Hazard is unlucky to be playing with bad players and Matic and Willian should go to China.
  17. Thats Alonso goal in my book, but Ive seen similar goals recorded as "own goals".
