tonearm thats a real nice antijuve sig.
and your right about lyon, they dnt aim to win the champs league, everyseason the further they go the more they over-acheive. plus lyon are a profitable team, look at all the players they brought up and sold for a big price.
leeds gotten to the semis in 01. monaco the finals, porto won it in 04. bayern leverkussen was there in 02. valencias been to the finals too this decade.
None of those clubs are bigger than Lyon, or had as many good players as Lyon. Im not saying they are not good. They are, their domestic dominance proves that. But you can't say they do good in europe when, they dont do good in europe. They do okay in europe.
apart from porto and valencia, look at the other teams now. but u make a good point.Quote:

considering the harsh relations between Atletico and Real, and all the players Atletico bought, the season would be successful for them if they finished before Real. nothing else.
they all had fluke seasons, none of them have recaptured anything to write home about. atleast lyon are consistantly there and match it with the big boys regularly.Quote:

freddy adu to benfica
thats been known for a while
adu will be nowhere seen the mofo is mad overrated
adu is overrated dnt see him being a star player. he will be lucky to develop into a starter.
and today is the start of the turkish league. gonna be another season of bullshit beef, water bottle throwing and tv cables cut. not to forget kezman getting into a fight nearly everygame for falling to the ground whenever the other teams starts attacking.
Kezman, what a tragedy..
Tevez is registered as a Man Utd player at long last, I can finally rest easy knowing its all above board and there'll be no crap later on in the season. Him and Rooney could forge a partnership as potent as Cole & Yorke's, with hopefully being a more long term arrangement. Given we have a buy back option on Rossi as well, we should be sorted for forwards for the next 5 seasons or so.
tottenham should be up there in the top four this year.
tevez, nani, anderson, rooney, ronaldo... wow, fergie got himself a blazing new generation
an odd new rule in turkish football, 22 minutes into the half the ref gives the players a 2 minute water break.
and man utd have a real good generation. and tottenham i have them finishing above arsenal this season.

In the winter, they bring a fire eater on to blow fire on the players to warm them up.
the rule was put in place cause its soo damn hot. 45degree celsius heat, with like 70% humidity. last season a lot of players fainted during games. this is just a precaution to stop that from happening.
and i spoke to soon on tottenham coming 4th as they lose to sunderland in the first premiership game.
