There is always a newly promoted Italian team that has blue on their uniform. They always get relegated in the same season...
Weird feelings of football
- Thread starter fontaine
- Start date
If you said to me that this time 9 days ago we would of got Falcao and Di Maria I would of laughed.
It feels kinda weird that we have them but amazing at the same time.

Coventry City no longer exist.
Neither do Charlton Athletic.
Alan Curbishley is favourite for every managers job ever but never gets it.
Whenever United desperately
Need points at a lower premier league team, their normally shite goalkeeper becomes
Manuel neuer for the day.

I have that feeling too. It also always happens against Valencia (although they are not a lowly team)
This is the best thread on the caf btw
Arsenal clash against Dortmund and Bayern in champions league every year.
After a lengthy ban, high profile players will always make a comeback in an United-Liverpool game.
That's more down to the shitty seeding system and all the awful permutations of the draw than just a weird feeling.
Needs changing otherwise we get the same tournament every year.
Whenever Ashley Young is on the verge of being dropped he pops in with an amazing performance which keeps him in the lineup for the next few weeks.
We always lose Sundays game at 4 PM.
Iniesta never misplaced a pass in his entire career.
Mario Jardel still scores goals at Bolton.

The Brazilian leagues consist entirely of ageing, past it strikers and attacking midfielders who have moved back home after careers in Europe, as well as the latest young prospect who pops up every 5 years before being signed by Madrid or Barca
-Mexico and Arsenal are basically the same team in different competitions. Arsenal will qualify to the CL every time (Mexico to the WC), get through the stage group sometimes defeating a more powerful team in the process (like Borussia/France), maybe even compete against the top ones (Barça, Bayern / Argentina, Netherlands) but somehow always lose.
-There's always a Brazilian that will rock the world but disappear two months later and come back in a dark CL team; or become Kerlon.
-Garay signed for United every year since 2011.
-You never know most of the teams involved in the Copa Libertadores semifinals unless they're one of the big guns.
-The United States never lose a CONCACAF game. Never, ever, ever.
-Landon Donovan always scored.
-USA keepers are always white and bald and good shot-stoppers. Like a family of Kasey Kellers.
-Every single year 2 or more of Arsenal, City, Chelsea, United, Liverpool are kicked out of the League Cup and FA Cup by 2nd (or lower) division teams, yet it's always a surprise.
-Benjani Mwaruwari lived for only 2 years and then became Adebayor.
-Glen Johnson always shoots from distance and always hits the post or the bar, but has never ever scored from those shots.

The bolded are done intentionally.
I don't feel like there is a good time slot for our games.The 12.45 games on Saturday seem to be hell for us over the years, as do the Setenta/ESPN/BT games at 5.30pm on Sat.
Every season managers spout the same bullshit about 'six or seven' teams competing for the title.
Kenwyne Jones and Ricardo Fuller were the most feared partnership in the league for 2-3 years.
Bolton used to be a fairly good premier league side with players like jay jay okocha.
We didn't win a trophy last season as everyone still goes on about 9 years without a trophy, even though its technically incorrect, we didn't win anything from 2005-2013 which is only 8 years.
How can the year we won a trophy be included in the amount of time we went trophyless?

um... because Arsenal won the FA cup in 2014, not 2013?
Obafemi Martins never ages
Players always score against former teams (when I'm watching the game)

Each team promoted to PL signs Henri Kamara (or some other Kamara).
Arry signs Kranjcar in each transfer window (this actually may be the truth).

All strikers have a 6 month lifespan at any new club, where they are very good. Thereafter they are shite.
RVP, Lukaku, Demba Ba, Michu, Chamakh. The list could go on forever.
Premier league clubs have actually cottoned onto this however, which is why Demba Ba and Micu don't play on England now

Ireland always win 1-2 in Georgia.
Lukaku's been doing well for a while though.
Great thread with some great comments, especially in the OP.
In every game with a British commentator there will be at least one pretty rough foul, but the commentator will insists that the "he did not even touch him", "there was nothing in it" or "he went down easily".
Zidane had an outstanding World Cup in 1998 despite being sent off in one game and missing subsequent games.

David Icke probably has suspicions some players are Lizards.
If a foreign player is fouled by a British player then the commentator is obliged to announce that it was a dive, he barely touched him or it was a very soft foul. More so if Mark Lawrenson is commentating or it's England playing
was about to write it. I saw him in preseason against Spurs and I was like: This guy still plays? I thought he hanged his boots already and is 29 haha
yeah and czech national football team sucks for a long time now.. I remember we were so unlucky in play-off to WC in 2001 when we played below average Belgian side. Repka sent off in the first leg and Nedved with Baros in the second leg Wilmots scoring from the spotkick. We had a bronze run in later euro 2004(Greece was gold) but since that time nothing, no new players emerging. Rosicky is still by far our best player with Cech. Look what Belgium produced since that time. Our football is corrupted. There is no money and if there is some then it goes to wrong people. We are hugely regressing it is not even funny.
Ivan Campo still plays for Bolton
Portugal have lost every game in every qualifying campaign they've entered, but still manage to sneak through the play-offs. And then finish above England once the tournament starts, obviously.
I think this is actually true.
