    Are you bloody serious. Chelsea always get f----- in the Round of 16 draw. Last time we had Bayern and the time before that was Barca.

    No worries. I mean yeah on the paper they're the fav but I've seen you guys qualifying after facing tougher opponents than Roma so anything can happen.

    Fun fact, after Molde(11) Braga is the team with the most goals received that managed to qualify from the group stage with 10 and I think Slavia also got 10 as well so having a week defence against a team like As Roma that scored more goals than Juventus in Seria A can be tough.

    Crazy how Dinamo Zagreb in a group with Feyenoord, CSKA Moscow and Wolsberger received only one goal and that was at the end of the 6th game

    Agüero came out from the Club I've been a fan of since I was born: Independiente (Argentina). I even got to know him personally.
    I sort of "follow" him whatever club he plays for
    AND... I'm a Guardiola stan too. So both of them together at City made me watch every game and loved their football (up until this season...).

    As a ManCity fan this pisses me off.
    While PSG are making all the right moves by actually showing Messi they want him, ManCity are laid back, doing nothing.
    And Guardiola's comments (i.e: Messi should finish his career at Barcelona) don't really help. I'm sure that if City showed public interest, Messi would much rather move to a competitive league, play with his best friend Aguero and be managed by the same coach who led him to be the best footballer in the world.

    BOSS in La Liga but in Champions league they were pretty bad. They had a group with Bayern, Salzburg and Lokomotiv Moscow and got only 6 points after 5 games and were at the risk of going out if they lost last night.

    On a slightly brighter note, my team ( Rangers ) threw away a 2-0 lead to Benfica to draw 2-2 tonight. But our rivals Celtic got f----- 4-1.

    Fantastic evening!

    Terrible suggestion. For his clubs, and at a push Argentina, yes. But not every number 10 everywhere lol.

    Sounds like a handy addition to bolster our defense and mentor our plethora of youngsters then! :rejoice:
    Gombau and then Amor!

    Still just want Isaias back :mjcry:

    Been a big few days for us. You see we signed Tomi Juric?

    My football heads! Just wondering if I could get some insight into those that follow LaLiga in regards to Javi Lopez from Espanyol?

    He's the most recent signee for Adelaide United and from what I've read he seems like a quality signing

    Like I did before with Diogo Jota and Trincão ( I think) i'm gonna drop here the name of the next Portuguese big thing. Pedro Gonçalves aka Pote.

    He's was formed in Braga and now plays for Sporting, he's already breaking Bruno Fernandes numbers, 7 goals in 4 games and he's a midfielder. Great player.

    Well they just had a bad day.

    Nagelsmann actually is 33y old and at the age of only 28 he became the youngest manager ever in Bundesliga history when he signed with Hoffenheim. When he came in they were fighting to escape relagation and he managed to keep them in the 1st division.

    The next year he finished 3th in Bundesliga with Hoffenheim and got them in a European Competition for the first time in their 119 years of history and just one year later he finished 4th qualifying for the Champions League groups also for the first time ever.

    A few months ago he reached the ucl semifinals after eliminating Tottenham and Atletico Madrid along the way with Leipzig.

    Me personally I never seen a coach this young with the results he has.
