Germany and USA have similar problems with the health system. Here, thousands of people die per year because doctors were so greedy to implement too expensive treatment instead of the adequate treatment. Our docs are like professional killers with general amnesty. It's astonishing how this profession still enjoys such a good reputation. when you got a problem you have to pray there are expensive ways to treat it right, if not you are fucked. No government has the balls to mess with the insurance companies and their lobbies.

I know. They should be called "von Sachsen-Coburg-Gotha" if they did not change their name. But the history of the British king's and queen's is really interesting. Initially the crown was bent by William the Conquerer and later by Henry IV who won against his older cousin, was crowned by the parliament ditching his other cousin who was above him in the succesion list in the process, causing the roses 60 years later. If we go by your logic,the English monarch had been the rightful king of France for 500 years, so Maria Stuart practically surrendered her claim to the english throne by marrying the king of France , who in fact should have been herself if she had maintained her claim as legit.

It's really funny how people consider men with average faces as attractive when they are well groomed and nicely styled just as Schürrle and MvG. I have to admit these fashionable Hitler-Jugend style undercuts fit both of them pretty well. Schürrle btw is gay according to persistent rumours in Germany. Anyway, the leather jacket he sports on that pic is amazing. Anyone an idea where he got it?

That's not true. In Germany the Royals are greatly covered in the mainstream media. Also the Royal Family attracts many tourists. IMO it is one of the main reasons, Britain still got the monarchy, because it brings more money to Britain than it costs.

whatever. Adan is neither good nor English, I think our 2nd goalkeeper should be both. Mou knows as much as we that there are better goalies than turnbull for peanuts, but he obviously sees something in Ruddy.

If there was any possibility of us getting Lewa and Roo, we would taken it, I am sure of that. As for Negredo, Soldado, Gomez, Higuain and the other one I do not see where this should lead us. IMO, the minor upgrade to what we got now they would provide is comfortably outdone by the prospect of Lukaku breaking through. As of now they might be better than him, but Lukaku has the potential to surpass them within months. Besides his desire to play for the club, Lukaku boasts attributes few other players have. Pace+Strength u simply can't defend that sort of athleticism, he will get chances against any defender. Some might say, he did not even start at WBA all the time or has never led the line on his own, had no experience. But which future star did so with 19? Our squad bursts with creativity, he will get even more chances than at WBA. True he might not be able to lead us in the big games but he does not have to. We have never really been a team that depends entirely on one striker. Demba Ba and Torres have been shit most of the season, Lukaku is better than them already.

With everyone moaning about us having missed out on various world-class strikers, Lukaku starting next season with some important goals vs ManU and Bayern would be epic. .

If Romeu had started ahead of Lamps last season, we would probably not even play European football. Oriol might have potential, but yet he is still average. NO one knows how he recovers from his injury. Demanding his definite inclusion is just dumb.

we do, we had one in the last two years, I doubt we would have omitted it this time.

Ba might be average, but Torres is far worse. We would be selling the wrong, cheaper and much more useful striker

I hope not. The problem is more that we do not ty our youth players long enough to profit on their sales. If they want to sit out their contract we can simply laon them, if not we can sell them. Decent players like Borini, Cork left on a free just because we were too slow to give them long term pro contracts fo rthem to have selling value.

de Rossi won't join PSG. They might already have some italians with Sirigu and Motta but he wants to win real titles and not the French pussy league. Still PSGs interest does not make it easier for us.

De Rossi fits us even better, Martinez is probably the slowest player on the planet. I hope we rather loan MvG back to Vitesse or so. He will not find enough playing time cos he is still way behind any of Oscar, Lampard, Ramires.

Anelka, ironically, was our first post-Jose signing. At least Mourinho is not only seeing his own shadows at his return to the EPL

gone to Dortmund. Shame, did only cost 13m and would have provided much needed pace in our attack.

Schweinsteiger is 28, Yaya is 30. I think age will be no problem at first. He might be a mid-term solution at best, but the best possible. Also we have enough DMs like Chalobah, RLC in the making to take over from him, but right now, we need a DM more than anything else to be competitive again.

One also gets to play football in training. I think many players would love to sit on the bench, get good money and their hand on trophies and sacrifice playing time. I reckon 40 games for a top club + loads of trophies + big wages are better than 400 games for a club no one cares about and never win a title and not that much money. Most important things in football are trophies and money and they have to think about their future after football, too.

But maybe Moyes is. Moyes often sold his best players for good money, maybe he won't stop that at ManU and tries to make his own stamp on the team by developing Youth players like he did at Everton. Fergie might still be influential and not willing to sell Rooney, but Moyes will have the final say.

van Ginkel would be another signing for a 4-3-3. with KDB coming returning, Schürrle signing and Ramires assured of his importance we actually might ditch that 4-2-3-1

age, price

As does Cavani. Any signing of a 25-30 years old big name striker has now. But that should not prohibit us from signing players we might need.

Yup who gives a shit about Mata for Spain. I think Mata is a player who really has to have the team playing around him so his lack of pace and strength and in general any kind of athleticism does not get too exposed. You just can't place him on the wing just like Del Bosque did. Esp with that lack of protection they got with only one defensive midfielder. Two massive errors by the coach, completely outfoxed by Scolari. Mata remains our second best and most important player and he probably also would be that for Spain if they played a 4-2-3-1 with Mata as no.10. Thing is they don't, they rather build the team around Xavi and Iniesta, the latter is still better than Mata and hence one can understand that. ON the other hand, people should stop looking up to Mata as if he was God. He might have been amazing and our best player overall in the past 2 years but in these 2 years we might have won 2 european trophies with a lot of luck but the squad is ridiculous compared to what we had 2004-2010. Mata is not even close as good as Lamps&Drogs of old and never will be. They could rip Barca or BAyern Munich apart single-handidly., Mata might contribute a lot of assists vs average sides but against real teams as Bayern, Barcelona, ManCity or Juventus he goes missing. The problem is, there is nothing he can do about it, he needs the ball to be played to him over and over again in good positions. He can't run, can't dribble, has no pace, no right foot and gets pushed over as soon as a good tackler gets near him. He is slower than every defender. All this makes it tricky to orchestrate the game. He pulls out some nice skills here and there and also has his moments, but his job is to make the game which he simply can't against big opponents. It's not that he is not mentally able to perform in big games or shit, it's simply his limitations as a player esp as an athlete which make it impossible for him to dictate the play in those games. That is why he is not the man we should build or team around. He is still a very useful player who shoud play almost every of our matches, but he is not our best player by ability. It's Hazard. Hazard is like Messi. He is skilful and damn fast. He can run through defenses with ease create a goal out of nothing on his very own against any defender. He might not have done that against eh very big teams, too, but he, opposite to Mata, has the potential to do so, he does not have these limitations that prohibit him from becoming one of the very best. That is why we should play Hazard on the left wing where he belongs. If a we play counter-attacking and a 4-3-3 does fit Hazard better, then ditch Mata. We can't dominate Bayern or BArcelona, which would be necessary for mATA to be effective, but we can counterattack them to death for which we do not need Mata.

IMO it is ridiculous to compare Higuain to Rooney. Wazza's quality should not be in doubt. He is capable of scoring and creating goals of the highest order week in week out. The question is not is he good enough but does he fit here? and is he worth the money&the trouble we will have with him? He is ot the kind of poacher some want, he is more than that and he surely can be a classic no.9 as he is for England, cos he is clinical finisher and has the strength and enough pace to shrug off any defender. The problem is him being a dumb, self-centred twat, brilliant player, but an incredible, greedy cunt + he already has won everything, he will not be as ambitious as Lukaku or Cavani. If Mourinho can get him on fire again this could be the deal of the century, if not he will just be a much uglier version of Torres. He does not fit the club in terms of identity, but he does fit the squad in terms of playing style. Deciding between him and Cavani is deciding what are we willing to sacrifice for success. A lot of money or a bit of our pride?

why didn't Fred win it? he had also 5 goals? Had Torres also an extra assist vs Tahiti or what? It is just ridiculous how 2 goals in the final are worth less than 4 goals against Tahiti. One should have a goal value coefficient for this.
