  1. Anyone saw the Chile - Mexico game? 7-0? What happened there?
  2. I personally would be fine with that. Not too sure about Zorc and Watzke, though.
  3. Yeah. I think you need a bit more than that to get us to letting the third key player leave in a transfer period. Otherwise I'm fine with letting him go. We're in full rebuild regardless.
  4. Don't think Watzke completely ruled it out letting a player leave on a free. However, I don't understand why they won't let him. We will probably be fine without him. With Hummels and Gündogan leaving we are in a rebuild situation anyway. So why not sell Mkhitaryan as well? We would still have time to add a replacement and I just don't think we'd end up much worse than 3rd or 4th place.
  5. Iceland can thank Ronaldo for that goal. Too lazy in defense. Scratch that. Had him confused with Gomes.
  6. Same could be said for Romelu Lukaku. Haven't seen a good match from him not wearing an Everton shirt.
  7. Italy shows once again why system beats individuals in this sport. Disappointed by Belgium so far.
  8. By the way: Brazil's out of the Copa already. When I was a kid you could let them have 2 teams at the World Cup and both of them would make it at least to the quarter finals. Nowadays the first team gets embarassed by us and their second team by Peru and Ecuador.
  9. Defense pretty shaky during the first half. Offensively lacking in movement and ideas. Götze and Özil pretty much non-existent for the entire match. Still, quality is high enough to win those kinds of matches. 2-0 was fantastic, though. Mustafi with the artistic interception. Özil with a timed run and pass. Schweinsteiger with perfect finish. So far the win by the highest margin. Ridiculous.
  10. Are there some Russians or English available to throw platic chairs at those idiots? Pathetic.
  11. Holy crackers, what a goal. Payet definitely MOTM after that.
  12. He did. Didn't see much of Lacazette this year. But I can't object having Coman on the team. He fit right in at Bayern.
  13. Hey, Mr. Romanian Goalkeeper. You are allowed go a couple of steps in front of the goal line. Can be very useful at times. Yours sincerely Lateralus91
  14. Defensively I'm not too impressed by France. Against Romania that will probably be enough. But they might get in trouble against stronger teams. Similar to Germany nobody seems to like the participation in defensive action apart from the back 4. Edit: Also: why the hell is Adil Rami on the pitch? They have Varane and Mathieu for heaven's sake.
  15. I wonder why di Marzio is considered reliable. So far I haven't seen any difference to BILD for example. He's just taking good guesses. And a whole lot of them. And sometimes it might happen he hits something. With rumours linked to us, he was almost always wrong. According to him we have signed Ranocchia, El Shaarawy and many others.
  16. Trophies... maybe. Best league... arguable. Highest recognition... probably. Pep could be a reason as well. For Auba in particular: Auba has a contract until 2020. He repeated several times he'd prefer Real and/or La Liga. He's not the best suited striker for Pep's system. City has Aguero. Auba stated he's currently happy at the club. We just gave away two key players in Hummels and Gündogan. Mkhitaryan also a big question mark. Unlikely we'll sell a third. Much less a fourth key player. For once we have the advantage over the other club and the player. It just doesn't make any sense for us. It would require an unreasonable amount of money. A couple of years ago in times where no FFP existed, there would have been a chance. And yes, at that time I wouldn't have put it past City's management to make that move.
