Witsel is a disgusting fool, who is a disaster in picking position.

If he is used as he should be, in a more attacking role, he is great, in the controlling role he has to play in for the RD's, he isn't good.

Damn, it's like a cattle market over there.

Neymar's deal included a lot of minor details that i don't remember anymore. But that was one of them. Well, i remember they were supposed to play 2 friendlies (they played one), one in each country. And if they didn't Barcelona would have to pay a fee.

I don't know who posted the UEFA ranking yesterday and where but this one seems to include this season (so far) and we now left Portugal behind.

That is remarcable, comming from an Anderlecht supporter :-D

Idk. Always liked Defour more back at Standard.

Always tought witsel was overrated and i was watching the game when he brutalised wasyl.

Lets get Van Praet or Tielemans instead

Since German teams can't win Europa league with their teams, we can be in front of them, next years. Clubs like Napoli or Fiorentina and Inter can easily (i can say) win Europa League and give some points to Italy, it's necessary.

@Mark

And no, not really. I'm watching less and less SA Football as time goes by. It will get a point where i'll just give up on it, i really can't stand that horrible Football. I didn't grow up watching shit like that. The Libertadores has lots it's brillo.

And for a club like Boca to be playing La Sudamericana tells you how messy the situation is over there.

But i have friends and those fuckers insist on messaging me when they play. In fact, one of them texted me when Boca scored today

Posted the news on twitter weeks ago, some other Pochettino retweeted my tweet. Turned out to be Poche's father. Said he loved to come here, nothing was finalized yet. I guess it's gonna happen, soon.

I assume he has an Italian passport?

It looks like Italy have cemented the four place for some years to come.

What the hell happened in the 10/11 Portugal champaign? why so much points.

3 EL semi finalists, an all Portuguese final.

I hope that Serie A teams could make some deep runs in the EL. Maybe Napoli can surprise this season, i think they played with a full squad yesterday.

soon.

Now that the winner of the EL gets an automatic CL spot for the following season, I think we will see Italian teams take it more seriously.

I highly doubt that.

Portugal's best season (2010/11) won't be accounted for next year, therefore chances that Portugal would overtake Italy were always non existent.
On the other hand Russia might overtake France, and that is significant change since Ligue 1 would lose one place in the CL.

They might be a little more focused once they winning it becomes a real possibilty (say if they make it to the last 16), but I wouldn't anticipate a different attitude prior to that.

And the attitude later on may well still not change if they still have the chance to do something in Serie A.

Could well imagine Fiorentina having a real go at the EL this season because I don't see them doing much in Serie A.

Won't be expecting much from the other Italian sides.

Yeah thats what I meant to say, once they make it to the latter rounds they might take it seriously if their league campaign isn't going too smoothly. Inter maybe might contend for it if they're fucking up in the league.

I also like Defour more, but Witsel can be used better then he is used for the RD's.
Also, I agree that we should try to get Tielemans and/or Praet.
Witsel is too expensive, Zenith will want to recover much of the 40MEuro they bought him for and although he is a good player, he isn't worth that much.

Anyone but them. It would be their 4th EL, 7th major European trophy and we would literally never hear the end of it.

Shows how terrible the French league is, and really, 3 Russian teams (if the 3rd place qualifies) is fucking ridiculous as well, they're top teams all seem very weak to me IMO.

tbh, it was about time EL winners got that ticket. Cause really, the team who wins the EL, usually has to make considerable sacrifices in their domestic competition
