I just found out that Atalanta have scored the highest amount of goals in Serie A this season. A bit of a random thing to discover.

****ing hell, that was the shittest fight I have ever seen for the first 38 seconds and then when it started getting exciting the damn thing finished. I think you could even hear the people who were recording laughing.

My word, the skill level of A-League footballers are atrocious. Most players can’t seem to make simple 5-10 yard passes.

I’ve seen so much hero ball as well. A great 2 on 1 play developing where it’s an easy pass into the box for a 1 on 1 chance, nope the forward with the ball goes wide with the defender on his heels and takes a tame shot. A Victory player tried an audacious shot on his left foot with a bouncing ball outside the box that he skied into the upper deck of the crowd when he had no pressure around him and could have taken a touch (you see that weekly). It’s no wonder these footballers are still playing in Australia at their ages and haven’t been discovered like the Mooy’s and Rogic’s. It can be a fun league with end to end stuff but don’t expect to see Barcelona style football.

I guess we can expect Icardi to be playing for AC Milan next season. It is the Serie A after all where no club is against selling their players to rivals.

Has been the perfect move for him at this stage of his career. Serie A allows him to play at a high level well into his mid 30s.

Icardi is off to Juve

Imagine their forward line when Higuain returns from loan.

Yep, he’ll probably be there until he is 36/37 then head off to China or the MLS.

Which is a parent company of Gazprom Neft, formerly Sibneft, which is where Roman shoddily acquired his billions.

I doubt the MLS is an option any longer for him with the Las Vegas rape case ongoing. Its a pipe dream but an A League club really should be offering serious marquee wages to him when he is 37/38. Perhaps Glory with his grandparents being from Perth.

Good to see the Bayern Munich fans protesting against the Qatar airways sponsorship.

 

[go you pups]

The #FPLCommunity hashtag tends to get a few bites but yeah I don't think this week its a useful one to chuck in there with no FPL games.

Use the clubs you're talking about hashtags too

People search things that trend, so you might get bites doing this

Ronaldo did say in an interview with Jonathan Ross once that he wants to retire with dignity and won’t go to America or Qatar to play football. So you can rule out MLS and the A-League as options. PSG did sign Beckham when he was 37 a few years ago, so that would be a good option. Like Juventus, you can imagine he’d go their for more silverware and a decent pay packet at a later stage of his career.

 

[RPCB]

So I’ve seen that after Barcelona made the Make A Wish foundation signing of Gerard Deulofeu, they have done the same with Kevin-Prince Boateng. This should be an interesting next few months.

 

[kangaspurs]

Haha every time I see this I laugh. In a parallel universe somewhere he's the all time Socceroos scorer after regularly banging in 10 against the likes of the Philippines and Myanmar.

 

[Magma]

i'd be surprised if he doesnt finish his career at sporting
