All Europa League finals have had at least 1 Spanish team.
Weird feelings of football
- Thread starter fontaine
- Start date
Watching the PSG Lens game on Setanta. Convinced myself PSG won 3-1 again in the first leg against Chelsea when the commentator mentioned the second leg
, always good to meet a fellow PES(during its glory days) lover, they changed the names alot, Ivarov -Ivanov, Stromer - Stremer, etc i always felt that they were based on past/present footballers - Ivanov was definitely based on Akinfeev
Burchet was the worst player on the team but he had the highest rating for speed and acceleration.
Burchet was a fantastic impact sub.
Minanda had a great strike on him too.
At least one club relegated from the Premier League ends up in another relegation fight in the Championship the following season.
Ah the days when your keeper was actually your best striker
Oh god, I remember when I was a teenager having to go in goals in the 2nd half of one game because our best GK was also our best striker. He scored twice and I fumbled two shots and conceded the rebounds. 2-2 draw, everyone hated me
I used to think purple patch meant a player was having a bad spell
Yeah "purple" is a historical thing, most commonly used these days when talking about overly descriptive writing, which is known as "purple prose". This it's something to do with it being seen as a very decorative and luxurious colour, can't remember though
Jermaine Jenas is omnipotent.
Every ex-liverpool player becomes a pundit.
Wolfsburg won the Bundesliga in 2004
Michu had one good season then disappeared from existence.
Newcastle sign an African that nobody has ever heard of every season.
But it turns out said African is actually part of the French B team because his parents were from one of the former French colonies.
Valencia has never actually spoken. He can only communicate through a variety of sullen looks.
Apart from the LvG season when they reached the CL Final, Bayern did not exist between 2006 and 2011.
Blackburn Rovers actually won the Premier League title
Welbeck never left United, he's just out of favour.
All Serie A squads are about 50 players strong with an obligatory shit player on loan from the premier league.
French Ligue 1 games either finish 1-0 or 0-0.
Defensive coaches never get any plaudits i.e. Lucien Favre, Rehhagel,
Andy Cole, Ian Wright, Robbie Fowler and Matt Le Tissier never made a single appearance for England.
I strongly suggest this may be the most accurate one from this thread. Although I seem to remember him saying "50/50" to a question about whether his goal was a cross or a shot
Ashley Young left united last year.
But no one wanted him so yes been training and playing with us without getting paid
But no one wanted him so yes been training and playing with us without getting paid
He didn't say it, he frowned it.
Cavani is always in the process of falling down when he shoots.
Actively trying not to lose rather than win doesn't sit well with football fans.
PSG aren't French
The full backs of today are all wingers.
Moyes always has a strong second half to the season
There is a common consensus that Zlatan is a world class footballer despite nobody ever seeing him actually play well
Didn't have a very strong one last year.
Frank Rijkaard is dead?
Would seem like it, but linked to every job.
Andrea Barzagli and Leonardo Bonucci are the same players.
Neither have actually played together. Seems like its one or the other to play alongside Chiellini.Definitely
Think it was at the 2010 World Cup they had Bonucci, Barzagli and Balzaretti as centre backs in their squad. That was damn confusing, good job they didn't last long.
Yep, against Blackburn a few years ago when Shreeves asked him- thereby using up his allowance of words for the next 10 years.
Valencia never has his shirt untucked
