    Simone Zaza

    I guess the signing of Cuadrado probably means Juve will have one more forward player in the squad than they had envisioned. Zaza is being viewed as the expendable one to bring the squad numbers down to the planned level.

    Hope Ajax and the Amsterdam Police give the minks an appropriate welcome.

    [EU] Europa League 2015/2016

    And Lazio's inevitable racist shenanigans won't get as much coverage in the EL as they would in the CL, so that limits the damage to Serie A's reputation.

    Lazio will probably get more coefficient points in the EL than they would have in the CL.

    Which is why I'd avoid putting two players to him. Take that risk instead of giving time and space to the players more likely to produce something.

    [CL] Champions League 2015/2016

    That's a good point just now. Becomes harder if they get De Bruyne and you want to stop them getting the ball to both of them.

    [CL] Champions League 2015/2016

    Forgot Spain had five teams this year. Don't know how they were dealing with that or what else was going on regarding Sevilla's placement.

    [CL] Champions League 2015/2016

    :boh: See what shape everyone is in once the games start. Gladbach have started the season poorly. Sevilla are a decent side, but aren't as good as Juve should be. Fuck knows what Man City will do. Juve still should go through.

    [CL] Champions League 2015/2016

    Because they try to keep teams from the same countries in different halves of the draw for TV. Since Barca and Valencia were already drawn in one half, Sevilla had to go in the other so that there would be two Spanish teams on each night. Same that Gladbach and Wolfsburg had to be in Juve's...

    [CL] Champions League 2015/2016

    If Juve had got Wolfsburg instead of Gladbach, it would have been about as hard a draw as they possibly could have got.

    Summer mercato 2015

    It amazed me last summer that the world sat there and watched Song go to West Ham. There aren't many teams around who shouldn't want to sign him. Not so sure this summer - suggestion is he's having trouble passing a medical to re-sign for West Ham.

    [CL] Champions League 2015/2016

    Lazio were doing just fine last night - comfortably containing Leverkusen, even if there was little prospect of Lazio doing much themselves. But you are always going to lose a game where you have defenders making mistakes as bad as the one De Vrij and Mauricio made for the first two goals...

    Kingsley Coman

    The question is whether Coman is 'one of the biggest talents of his generation'. He looks a decent prospect to me, but far from exceptional.

    Poor as in a poor standard of play or financially poor? Their crowds are down because they a shit club who need Rangers to play against to feel they have a purpose, so they don't have as much to spend as they sometimes do. But they just aren't signing good players. For every Wanyama or...
