Well at least I thank him for finishing the seasons. Because leaving January would have been not ideal. Let's get that money and buy Morata and if we can Aubameyang.

Yea but it's your guys that are vandalizing when protesting and becoming violent when anyone has a different view then theirs.... Check out this article: THE TRUE FACE OF LIBERALISM The aftermath of the US elections reveals the duplicitous nature of Liberalism, exposing it for the fascist ideology that it has become. Uber CEO’s bland response to the President’s three months immigration ban has put him in the crosshairs of liberal zealots, who regard themselves as “progressive.” The same thing happened to Silicon Valley’s poster child, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, for not criticizing the ban more resolutely. These bullied dignitaries did not agree with Trump. Their only “sin” was that they did not chastise him with a torrent of slurs and profanities, as is commonplace these days among the “enlightened left.” Before the elections, the press was concerned with the question, “What happens if Donald Trump loses?” Los Angeles Times reporter Doyle McManus, like many other liberal journalists, did not even consider the possibility that Trump might win, and concluded that after Trump’s loss, “it’s hard to imagine that Trump will simply fade away.” But Donald Trump won, and his surprise victory exposed the true face of progressive liberalism in America. There are ample examples of the undemocratic nature of today’s American liberalism, such as their latest attempt at stymying the formation of the country’s government. Yet, perhaps the most authentic testimony I have seen came from a student of mine who wrote me about the situation in the Northeast, on condition of anonymity for fear of retribution from “liberals” and “progressives.” Below is just some of what my student wrote. An Entire Generation Was Educated in Fantasy [student’s own title] We grew up in this liberal bubble, a fantasy land. Our English classes required we read liberal books that championed the plight of immigrant minorities while condemning the westerner as the perpetual antagonist. I like to think I have a decent moral compass. I take no pleasure in disagreeing with the trend. A person is terrified to say he is not liberal. Universities and schools raised us to breathe the notion that non-liberals are racist, backwards, white, old, men, and bigots. Right now, what I see in the liberal-left is the new fascist ideology. They are the least embracing group in this country. Somehow, we have arrived where our society is an eggshell of political correctness. Everything is racist. Jerry Seinfeld made a joke about his friend whose last name is black. He said ‘Black's life matters.’ It was funny, but Seinfeld was almost crucified for racism. This is a sickness. I am a progressive. I define progressivism as openness to all opinions, challenging everything. I also see myself as a champion of the oppressed. The oppressed right now are the Trump voters—the people who are not represented by Hollywood, the media, or tech and financial institutions where H-1B visa immigrants have all the good paying jobs. I'm very alarmed at my generation's insensitivity to those with a different opinion than theirs. Trump is obviously not always right. But the outright temper-tantrum the left and my generation are having right now is a turn-off. They are entitled and SAD! From Entitlement to Fascism In the late 1940s, Baal HaSulam, my teacher’s father and the author of the Sulam (Ladder) commentary on The Zohar, wrote about the inherent problems of democracy in his compilation, The Writings of the Last Generation. According to Baal HaSulam, “We should not learn from the modern democracies, as they use various tactics to deceive the constituency. When [voters] grow wiser and understand their [leaders’] cunningness, the majority will certainly elect a management according to their spirit. And their [leaders’] main tactic is that they first create a good reputation for people and promote them either as wise or as righteous, and then the masses believe and elect them. But a lie does not persist forever.” Moreover, later in the book, Baal HaSulam writes, “Reality proves that the step following the ruin of a democratic government is that of Nazis or Fascists. …Whenever the democratic government is ruined, a fascist, Nazi regime will inherit it.” Indeed, the exposure of the fanaticism of American liberalism proves that Baal HaSulam’s analysis was dead on. The “liberals” are showing their true, fascist faces. Ironically, it was acclaimed liberal progressive author and journalist, Nicholas Kristof, who best described the liberal dichotomy in a column he wrote for The New York Times titled, “A Confession of Liberal Intolerance.” According to Kristof, “We progressives could take a brief break from attacking the other side and more broadly incorporate values that we supposedly cherish—like diversity—in our own dominions.” Today, without proper measures to mend America’s perilous trajectory, the fallouts for the American society and for the world at large could be horrendous. Establishing Sustainable Pluralism A government whose leaders are in office for a fixed and relatively short term requires certain preconditions in order to succeed. While term limits guarantee that no leader becomes a monarch, they also compel candidates to vie for campaign funds and seek the benefit of their big donors every four years. This inevitably makes lawmakers and leaders hostages in the hands of a powerful few who exact their fees after the election, in complete disregard of the public interest. The inevitable outcome of this skewed system is a parade of puppet presidents who dance to the dictates of their donors, as we have seen for the past several decades. The wealthy elite are the real rulers of the United States; the “government”—a reality TV show. As Baal HaSulam said in the above quote, today’s heads of state cannot be elected unless they are advertised like a commodity until the public “buys” the stories sold about them. In such a state, the president is not elected based on leadership skills, but based on acting skills and amicability. Are these the right criteria for choosing a nation’s leader? To elect good leaders, people must determine what they want to see in a leader. If the constituency has the interest of the entire nation at heart, they will elect leaders based on the interest of the entirety of the country. In the case of America, for people to have such a broad view they must care for America, and especially for the American people, all American people. Lessons from the Past In today’s era of extreme self-absorption, the only way to restore stability to the American society is to embrace plurality rather than reject it. If the liver and heart fought over blood because they both need it for survival, we would die. But their complementary functionality guarantees that we have a toxin free flow of blood to the entire body. Likewise, every person in humanity is important because health and strength are achieved when we unite above our differences, and not when we exhaust ourselves trying to be the last one standing. The constant battle we are fighting with each other is exactly how cancer behaves toward the rest of the body, and we know how this ends for the cancer and for us. When the ancient Israelites connected above their differences, they managed to build a nation out of millions of separate individuals. Once they pledged to unite “as one man with one heart,” they were tasked with passing the method for connection to the rest of the world. The Torah defined this task as being “a light unto nations” because today disunity is “darkening” people’s lives. When depression, violence, and alienation are engulfing all of humanity, unity is the only possible light at the end of the tunnel, however dim or faint. In Olat Raiah, the great Rav Kook wrote, “Unity that strives to benefit each individual is unsustainable. Even when it seems to grow, it will end in a flame of hatred and war among brothers, since each one is pulling in his own direction. However, unity that derives from recognizing the value of love of others will last and strengthen over time.” Indeed, Israel’s method for achieving unity can succeed precisely in a state of social disintegration and alienation because it is designed for such a state. It does not dread frictions; it embraces them as tools for achieving greater unity and social cohesion. My students all over the world carry out this method, which they titled, “Integral Education,” and prove repeatedly that people of different backgrounds can unite if they are willing to rise above their differences. They need not suppress their views like today’s intimidated supporters of the President. I think that America’s strength and stability are too important to the world for this country to behave recklessly. I think it must reinstate the value of embracing all views. Only when America does this can it begin to cautiously open its gates to immigrants. However, even then it must be done on condition that immigrants also embrace the values of pluralism and unity as the basis of democracy. In the coming years, the global challenges will increase and intensify. The basis for successful coping with these challenges is unity. If America establishes this, it will succeed. If not, it will end up like Europe. http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/The-true-face-of-liberalism-480228 P.S. This comment to this article said it all: "In short summary: Those that scream tolerance and diversity are the least tolerant of them all."

You do know that things don't happen overnight? Is like the immigration laws, every single law cannot change overnight. That being said, I believe that Government shouldn't be giving funds to every little thing out there. Funds to school, UN, nations, etc etc. This should come from another place not government.

You are talking about the protest against Trump where people burn down cars, glasses and all that stuff? Aren't those people on your side? Protesting against someone they disagree but all the same time committing acts of vandalism? P.S. I'm all for protest. Protest all you want, even if I don't agree with your view. Just don't go burning down things and vandalizing property. Martin Luther King Jr. would be ashamed of this.

This campus is not allowing free speech, where it originally started. They are being hypocrites.

UC Berkeley cancels Milo Yiannopoulos talk as students protest Mr Trump later threatened to withdraw federal funds from the university if it "does not allow free speech". The president suggested it was condoning those who practice "violence on innocent people with a different point of view". http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-38837142 This is what I find most absurd about these protest. They are being biased and hypocrites. Only their view matter and no one else matters......

According to Mirror he is on our list for this summer of players to buy.... http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/chelsea-already-plotting-100m-summer-9739312

Meet Naby Keita, the uncanny mix of N'Golo Kante and Franck Ribery Naby Keita faces Borussia Dortmund on Saturday with RB Leipzig and will cherish the memories of his Bundesliga debut against them back in September. The 21-year-old Guinean midfielder entered the field with six minutes to go, and immediately stole into the penalty area to score the only goal of the game and gift the newcomers their first top division win in their history. Not a bad way to announce himself to German fans who barely knew anything about him before the season started. Leipzig were well aware of Keita's capabilities, of course. After all, he had been playing for Red Bull Salzburg for two seasons, and Ralf Rangnick -- the sporting director at both clubs -- originally signed him in 2014. There was a feeling, however, the midfielder was not be ready for the big time and the coach Ralph Hasenhuttl planned to introduce him gradually. A few magnificent minutes against Dortmund changed his mind completely, and it has been impossible to imagine Leipzig without the diminutive star ever since. Keita didn't hide his ambitions. During the summer, he wasn't shy to claim: "I am looking forward to develop in the Bundesliga like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang." He has arguably accomplished that feat already, becoming the top player in Germany. Keita's average grade (2.54 out of six, where one is the highest mark and six the lowest) in Kicker is the best in the Bundesliga among outfield players. His contribution goes way beyond the four goals and five assists he has produced so far. He is everywhere on the pitch, both in attack and defence. It would be hard to find a more complete midfielder in Europe these days, because Keita is an uncanny, almost unbelievable, mix of N'Golo Kante, Luka Modric and Franck Ribery. On paper, he plays in a holding position at Leipzig, and very few midfielders make more tackles and interceptions than him. He is also responsible for building the play from behind with delightful through balls and wise distribution. All that doesn't stop him from bursting forward and taking on defenders. In fact, only Dortmund's Ousmane Dembele -- an out-and-out winger -- has completed more dribbles per game than Keita. With an average of 2.9, he leaves the likes of Ribery and Arjen Robben far behind. Given such range of skills, it is easy to understand why he was nicknamed Deco in his homeland as a kid. "Everyone thought that Naby is going to play for the biggest clubs in Europe," says Fode Kebe, who played alongside Keita at tiny FC Santoba. Bizarrely, his first trial in Europe, in 2011, ended in disappointment as Lorient didn't notice his potential. Two years later, the Guinean was back in France, and Le Mans -- where Didier Drogba started his career -- were keen to sign him, but went bankrupt before they could. Keita didn't give up and participated in an amateur tournament, where he was spotted by second division Istres. He might have joined the club in November 2013, long after the season had started, but immediately became the key player, scoring and assisting on his debut. Supported on the field and in the dressing room by veteran former Marseille and Paris Saint Germain midfielder Jerome Leroy, 20 years his senior, Keita gained experience, and he is very grateful to his mentor. "Jerome gave me a lot of advice and taught me that it is necessary to work hard in order to fulfil my potential. I often think about that," the Guinean says. Keita scored four goals and provided nine assists that term, but Istres were relegated to the third division and it was obvious that a big step forward was needed. Fiorentina, West Ham and Bordeaux were mentioned as possible suitors, but Salzburg acted faster. The Austrians are known to have a keen eye for young prospects, and they were certainly not disappointed with the midfielder, who didn't hesitate to state he wanted to become the best African player. Sadio Mane, whom he met for a few weeks at Red Bull before the Senegalese star was sold to Southampton, was an inspiration for Keita. "He showed me the way," he said. Keita was hugely instrumental in winning two championship titles, playing in different roles and excelling in all of them. He was positioned rather defensively in the 2014-15 season, but was given freedom to roam forward in 2015-16, which resulted in 12 goals and nine assists. Combining sublime technical skills and vision with tenacity and remarkable work rate, Naby became unstoppable. Even Jonathan Soriano, the club's top scorer, was certain: "Keita is our most important player." The team had significant problems to replace him when the Guinean was ill with malaria in the beginning of 2016. That illness might have cooled Arsenal's interest a bit, even though Arsene Wenger personally spoke to Keita in the summer. Manchester City and Liverpool were also reportedly interested, but the midfielder decided to move to Leipzig. "I didn't want to join a Champions League club immediately. It's still early," he said. Little did he know that Leipzig are about to become a Champions League club themselves. The most disliked club in Germany are definitely doing things right on and off the pitch, and Rangnick has to take a lot of credit for cherry-picking anonymous talents and keeping faith in them. They might have lost at Bayern Munich in the big game in December, but came out of the winter break in superb form. With star Swedish midfielder Emil Forsberg suspended, Keita became even more dominant. He set up Timo Werner's goal in the 3-0 thrashing of Eintracht Frankfurt with a sublime free kick, and then was involved in both goals as Leipzig condemned high flying Hoffenheim to their first defeat of the season. Those performances prove that Keita can become even better, and Rangnick was absolutely right when he said: "Naby is showing more and more of his extraordinary abilities." He claimed so in November after the Guinean scored a magnificent goal at Freiburg with a long range shot. A few weeks before that, Keita scored a brace against Bremen -- the first after a breathtaking solo run and the second with a header. His versatility knows no bounds. In his homeland, there are few doubts that Naby should become the greatest player Guinea have ever had. Former national coach Luis Fernandez, the ex-France star who knows something about midfield play, said: "Naby is strong and intelligent, he reminds me of Andres Iniesta." That is the highest possible praise for the youngster, because the Barcelona star is his idol. Keita dreams of playing at Camp Nou one day, and at his current rate of progress those aspirations are realistic. http://www.espnfc.us/german-bundesliga/10/blog/post/3052169/meet-naby-keita-the-uncanny-mix-of-ngolo-kante-and-franck-ribery

I hope they miss out top 4, and crash out of the EL. Maybe then a second season in a role without CL will be more damaging to get players.

So I see that your not a big fan of Zouma. Good me neither, he never had a good passing range. And if we want to be elite in the CL we have to move away from these type of defenders. I guess Zouma can be good to have to shut down shop. But definitely should not be ahead of DL and Azpi. Now I'm interested since most of us agreed that Cahill needs to be upgraded, what is your thoughts on Ake? Do you think he has a shot in his position? And what are we going to do with Andreas next season? I do like to give a chance to this younger players but I would still advocate to buy at least one experienced CB like virgil Van Dijk or someone from the Serie A that Conte likes.

Would you guys think going for Mahrez in the summer a good deal?

I think this is the CF we really need to link up with Hazard. Try to get him at all cost.

JEWISH GROUPS CONDEMN DEADLY ATTACK ON QUEBEC MOSQUE "This was an attack on Canada, not only on one mosque. Indeed, it was an attack on any democratic society founded on religious pluralism that today faces threats against its Muslim populations." http://www.jpost.com/Diaspora/Jewish-groups-condemn-attack-on-Quebec-mosque-480035

Well they actually had a second man who was Moroccan Called Mohammed Belkhadir as an original suspect but then they let him go. I think Fox done the same mistake CNN did a couple of weeks ago, report something that was not fully accurate.

Iran conducted ballistic missile test, violating UN resolution https://beholdisraelnews.wordpress.com/2017/01/31/iran-conducted-ballistic-missile-test-violating-un-resolution/ Of course the United nothing will do nothing about it and just continue their bias against Israel....

Founding fathers was Christian. Look at the language and history. Nonetheless as to per "radical Christian" I think that goes back to what I said before, what indoctrination they are being thought? This is why because of this "indoctrination" we will see that total surveillance state I'm worried about. And last alienating and threating our allies? Your joking right? Because Obama was the biggest person to do this with Israel. Israel is our number one Allied. And for a Christian nation Israel is our spiritual roots. Christianity emerge from Jews. They and no one else should be our number one ally. I hope Trump at least recognize this.

So he leaves as a free agent? If that so can't he get a pre contract with another team right now?

Here is an article from 2015 about Refugees...it's time to understand how Hijrah works. http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/260019/hijrah-europe-robert-spencer

And you hit the point my friend. This is what I'm most worried about. This is the beginning of that. Granted I don't agree with the Muslim, nor in sharia law, nor in homosexual marriage nor in abortion. But this is not the way to go about it. We start like this, and it will go even worse later down the road.

Not backwards but what is going to happen. This Islam problem will lead us into a bigger surveillance state. And that's the biggest worry. To have more surveillance at your mosque and to intervene in your messages. Consequently it will spread to other religion like Christianity. We will surveillance them and intervene in their messages.

Okay that's good. I hope you hold that same view for every side. And not become bias if you don't like their speech like say a zionist jew.....

And that's going against the constitution. Why do we want people like that? Shouldn't we want people that love the country, support and defend the constitution?

So your okay with being monitored? Having video cameras in mosque? And intervening if the message being preach is not in accordance with "American Values"? To be honest I see this coming, weather I agree with it that's another story.

They all sound like Muslim name...... The problem is not outside but inside what is being preach by their religion. Trump said something about needing to keep an eye on them. Your list says it all. So more then likely your list being proof, he will use it to monitor Mosque and what not......
