    You never know. Sometimes these fuckwits just need to be separated from their mates and they settle down and stay out of trouble.

    [ENG] Premier League 2014/2015

    I took Zach's comment as a criticism of the Spanish clubs for letting the players leave, rather than of the EPL.

    Yeah, it's not easy to define. But I think that as soon as he tries to head the ball he has to be given offside. I accept that generally the 'interfering with play' rule can't be strictly implemented because everyone who is vaguely in the vicinity of the ball is always interfering with play to...

    [ITA] Serie A 2014/2015

    I'm struggling to recall him having any significant influence on the game. He wasn't really involved in attack and Napoli didn't attempt to do much down his side of the pitch.

    [Serie A] Nipples Soccer 1-3 JUVENTUS (January 11th, 2015)

    Within the current interpretation of the rules he may well not have been interfering with play. I, however, fail to see how trying to head a cross when in the middle of the goal, eight yards out, can be interpreted as not interfering with play. Even if he doesn't touch the ball, he is bound...

    [ITA] Serie A 2014/2015

    They've been mixed. He started slowly and has got to a point where he is now generally adequate. But he has also made horrible errors that one doesn't expect from an experienced player, such as showing Gabbiadini inside onto his left foot to equalise for Samp. And then not learning his lesson...

    Yeah, the offside rule is a mess just now and is weighted for too far in favour of the attackers.

    Andrea Pirlo

    He is playing very deep. And that makes it hard for him to make really telling passes. All he can do back there is nudge the ball about in a fairly harmless fashion. So you have Pirlo with his failing more exposed and his strengths minimised. Sounds like a recipe for deciding Van Bommel...

    [Serie A] Nipples Soccer 1-3 JUVENTUS (January 11th, 2015)

    I think that as soon as Chiellini tried to play the ball he became active and was therefore offside. I see Gazzetta disagrees with me though with regards Chiellini being active. They still say the goal was offside, but on the basis that Caceres was marginally beyond the line...

    The Caceres goal is more clearly offside. Caceres is borderline. But Chiellini is offside and he has to be considered to have been interfering with play, even though he didn't manage to touch the ball.

    Some statements are clear enough you could give bans, but most people are careful enough with how they phrase things - even if it is perfectly clear what they are alluding to. Not entirely sure what the rules are in Italy, but here (and in England) you are generally allowed to criticise...

    It was very close. Even if he was, it's not something anyone should be complaining about.

    Haven't seen the film. Hibs are just a bunch of junkies. Was stupendously funny when they were relegated last season. - - - Updated - - - Another week, another win, another clean sheet. Eight wins and clean sheets in a row. No-one is currently on a longer winning run than us. No-one has...

    Quite possibly, as Pirlo is going very deep at times. But if Hamsik wasn't going to go and mark Pirlo, he should then have dropped deep enough to help Lopez and Gargano against Juve's other midfielders. The more I see Benitez, there more I think he is regressing tactically.
