Yeah Pep is joining the team after this season is over when the current Bayern managers deal expires.
Bayern has really good depth at the CB position Dante is a beast.
Not saying they don't have CB depth but Badstuber will be injured and Boateng will be suspended, meaning they are left with just Dante (who I agree is pretty good) and Martinez (who I think is better in the DM position) and funnily enough both are 1 yellow away from suspension. If we manage to make any of the 2 get a yellow they'll have to improvise someone in the CB position in the second leg. They still shit over us in most positions though :wacko:
Also happy for the win and even more for Jack's goal, if someone deserved the winning goal it was him. Probably my favorite player in the club atm.

I thought Boateng played RB for them and they play Martinez there?
Maybe instead of buying all those strikers they should've gotten some more depth at CB.

I don't think I've seen anyone post about Nuri Sahin leaving to Dortmund.
He will return at the end of next season or atleast I hope he returns and takes Xabi Alonso's spot in midfield.
That is assuming Xabi finally returns to Liverpool and Perez doesn't go full retard and lets Nuri stay at Dortmund permanently.

Hey Emigre now that i have your attention, let's discuss some real Football.

Have you noticed when Italians lose they start kicking in the legs and when they win they delay the game? Have you noticed that?
Or have you noticed how the Brits are no match for German teamwork.
Watch the second goal.

HEY GUYS
THEO WALCOTT FINALLY SIGNED THE DAMN CONTRACT!!!!
now we can focus on buying people ._.
I can already see the wenger press conference in a few weeks when we don't buy anyone: "Walcott, Diaby and Rosicky are like new signings, we have a great squad"
Jokes aside, I'm glad he has signed da ting, not because I think he's the second coming of Henry or anything but more because I think this is the first time we've turned around a transfer saga since the trend started with ca$hley cole. Hope this means we actually start keeping our best players instead of selling them to rivals.

I'd say its more of a case that no one was that interested in Walcott unlike RVP, Fabregas, Nasri, Viera and Henry.

Also in hindsight, Arsenal really should have just given Cole the extra £5k a week.

Fulham is really bad and David Silva is really good.

John Guidetti recently returned from his crazy injury and scored for the U21 side.
In that same game Marcos Lopes recorded 3 assists.
I want more Lopes in the first team.

BARCELONA ISN'T UNBEATEN IN THE LEAGUE ANYMORE WOOT!!!!!!

Pogba scored two goals from long range and now Juve fans are screaming Shoot everytime he gets the ball.

WARNING: A taste of your own medicine will end up bitter.

So, Tottenham snatch a late equalizer, and the match finishes 1-1. Dunno why United seemed to hang back, or keep Chicharito on the bench the whole game...

It's ok, though.

Now we need Everton or Chelsea to pick up some points against United and win the derby.

Chelsea's chance of getting a point off of United are about the same as Liverpool's chances of winning the league [which, according to their manager, is zero, if ESPN is to be believed]. Unless they replace Benitez and Torres with better personnel tomorrow [or they somehow beg RDM to take the job back].

Frankly, Everton has a better chance than them at the moment.

Real Madrid tore apart Valencia today. 5 goals in the first half.
If they play like they did today United will have no chance.

Pretty big if. Also, please, just... don't equate Valencia to United.
It wasn't that it was Valencia they were just playing so so well.
Özil probably had his best game this season and it seems like Angel Di Maria is finally finding some consistency.
And considering the way United's defense has played all season...

Awww shucks Carlos Tevez will leave City in 2014 to return to Boca Juniors.

Looking forward to the Utd vs Real Madrid game. I'm really confident Utd can beat Real Madrid, they're on a roll! 13/15 points away agains City, Liverpool, Newcastle, Chelsea and Spurs..... That is amazing!
