Turan is a beast, I think he was overshadowed a bit by the Diego Costa hype last season. Are Turkey picking their strongest team yet or is politics still keeping players out? I read that Barcelona are keen on Calhanoglu but honestly I hope he doesn't go there yet because Kevin De Bruyne is showing it can be a mistake going to these teams too early. Look at Andre Schürrle who was tearing it up for Mainz & Bayer 04 then a bit part player at Chelsea.
KDB is sensational this year only Arjen a Robben is playing better in the league and honestly I think KDB is better than anyone at Chelsea besides Hazard but he never got the chance to shine. Now according to media Chelsea want him back lol theyll have to pay £50m+ now. Wolfsburg are a real chance of winning the Europa league and I think Germany can do the double with Bayern winning as well.

^^ Tbf, I think Chelsea is the absolute worst place for any youngster who isn't already a world beater to go.

Turan is a good player, I think he has blossomed a bit to late because he stayed in Turkey too long. He himself admitted it, talking about the difference between playing in Turkey and Spain. Mainly the difference in training, he was overweight when he went to Spain, he said he just couldn't keep up with the training pace at start. Also how players who play for the big clubs in Turkey are spoilt because they have drivers who wake them for training and take them, people who organise their boots and cloths, while in Spain your expected to do it all yourself.
I believe the issue with Calhanoglu has been resolved gonna have to see if he is picked in the next round of internationals though. Turkey always picks politically its quite ridiculous.
For Calhanoglu a move to a big club will end his development plus teams like Barca are stacked at that position why become second fiddle when you can be the boss at Leverkusen, great example with Schurrle, some of these players need to be stars for the middle clubs in Europe and not become that standard player for a major club. Thats the only way European football can balance out.
If Wolfsburg and Bayern win both titles i think i aint too sure but Germany would jump England in the UEFA coefficients and go second, might need Dortmund to win tonight against Juve as well.
Apparently the Bundesliga slightly jumped ahead in the co-efficients today, 62.463 to 62.034.
It would actually be very interesting if Juventus and Fiorentina won the double and English teams had another disastrous failure next season whether Serie A could jump the EPL?

Yeah with Everton out and Wolfsburg through Germany is number 2. If England drops to 4th they lose a champions league spot so they gotta get their act together next season.
Today I have finally had enough of shit Besiktas, teams going to give me cancer. Cant believe we lost to Brugge, You beat Tottenham and Liverpool at home but completely fall apart against Club Brugge. We just handed over victory, we got some incredibly selfish players, they so selfish one does wonder whether they have a clause in their contract stating that if they pass someone will stick a dildo up their ass, we go on a counter attack and nobody even contemplates passing, one pass and that player is going for goal, but no our midfielders just can't accept the possibility of someone else scoring its just such a horrific thing to happen.
Its truly sucks to support a team that is so monumentally shite.
To add to all this Slaven Bilic is cool with his socialist football and stuff but the man just watches the games like the rest of us. I have yet to see him in these past two years turn a game around with his substitutions or tactical changes. He is unable to impact the game from the sidelines.
We should have put 5 past Germany this morning. I know it's only a friendly but we've reached a point where not defeating Germany in Germany is very disappointing. I love that we play attacking football and don't play this agricultural British way anymore

Germany have been quite poor since winning the world cup. I mean if it was the old qualifying system for the Euros they would have most likely finished 2nd in their group and go into the playoffs. With the new qualifying system theres no urgency, the groups are generally easier so it makes qualifying for the Euros effortless.
I guess thats why its hard to predict who will do well in the euro
Holland always smashes everyone in qualifying but then go on and choke.
Although lately they have been going far...eventually they'll win something
champions starting april 14th
who do you guys got
Juve vs Monaco
Athletico Mad vs Real Mad
Barca vs PSG
Porto vs Bayern Munich
Im looking forward to Athletico vs Real
as Jim Ross would say thats a "slobberknocker" of a match

Yeah lol Turkish football is a joke. They suspended the league for a week, also Fenerbahce have said they won't play unless the culprits are found. They blaming foreign agents who are trying to stir up trouble in Turkey by targeting Fenerbahce lol, thats how insane they are.
You know what I am not surprised this happened though, the injustice in Turkish football has reached such extreme levels that some people have just completely lost the plot, losing it enough to warrant shooting at another teams bus. I hate what has become of Turkish football, the politics involved, the fact that Fenerbahce completely got away with match fixing. There is such clear evidence that they fixed a minimum of 9 games, UEFA, CAS and the Swiss federal courts have said they fixed the games, but the Turkish football federation denies it after initially accepting it. Due to this and countless other examples some people have this outright hate for Fenerbahce and the people who run Turkish football.
Anyway back to football I fully enjoy seeing Man City fail, hopefully Liverpool can rob 4th from them.
I don't dole EPL but it would have been great to see Southampton make the champions league next year. Doesn't look like they can make up the 5 points though so I hope Liverpool can make it. Man City are pathetic. all the money in tbd world and they've assembled a horrible squad besides Aguero.
I was reading that Kompany was complaining that FFP is holding City back lol but they waste their money on shit players so what difference does it make
