I thought the time Drogba spent crying on the ground was embarassing, and how he would hobble around. I thought he was effective in getting back and pressuring near midfield.

Yeah, I agree.


Fake injuries are so weak.


His size and strength were imperative. I think there's only a handful of Strikers that Chelsea would have succeeded with today

Why do you dislike Chelsea?

TBH, no specific reason. Some teams i dislike (Internazionale, Lazio, Chelsea....) others i like (Milan, Bayern, Liverpool...)

I think because my team Internacional has a red jersey i tend to like teams with red jerseys too, and dislke the blue ones, which is the colour of our rivals Gremio.

I tend to discriminate against Spanish clubs for some reason (barca and real notwithstanding, but I still hate them). Not just the clubs but their players too. It's like they all have amazingly talented wingers and forwards from Spain, Portugal or South America and they all have really cool names like Falcao. It's no reason to hate them but I can't follow them.

Did y'all see Falcao's 2nd goal yesterday ? fantastic display of all around skill.

madrid is so winning the euro league.

Just watched the best matches. Pretty fun to be reminded of some off the players, like Asprilla, Ginola or Fowler.

Also, fullbacks really crash hard once they lose their pace and are not able to convert to centre back or defensive midfielders.

i got this.

A good Article on my favorite Team Dortmund for whoever wants to know more.

That way, less light is shed on his superlative tactics. Without the perfect synchronicity of attack, midfield and defence, all that "wanting" would just be aimless roving, not laser-guided "hunt football", as Süddeutsche Zeitung described it. Everything fitted so well together that one could become a believer in Intelligent Design: Dortmund have a young, talented team who follow their young, talented manager with cult-like fervour. They have fanatical, patient fans, a supportive local press and they're a club that have learned from their excesses in the past to invest smartly in up-and-coming players rather than in the finished superstar articles.
