I used to follow them, I'm a Kun Aguero fan; they treated Aguirre like sh*t and gave him little to no power over transfers. They had a horrible defense, but his offense let Kun Aguero shine, similar to how Carlos Vela plays very well with Mexico.



im hoping for a relagation of them and Villarreal

Watching Milan-Real right now. It's funny how every shot that heads towards Dida has a chance to slip by him since that **** up. :rofl:

I'm surprised Dida still has a career in top flight and it goes a long way to reflect Milan's ambitions this season.

Wow, Utd just playing piss poor most of the night and then turn it on. Valencia played like absolute trash at times in that match and gets the tying goal. :rofl:

That should be an own goal. His shot wasn't even on target.

By the way impressed by Macheda? Struck the post twice and played a great game overall.

Beşiktaş couldn't get any worse, I guess.

I honestly thought other than a few chances Macheda looked a bit out of place to be honest. But I was fuming in general with our play, so I probably wasn't watching him in particular.

Akinfeev was IMPRESSIVE. Would love for him to be VDS's replacement eventually. But man, he overplayed the ball on some of his kicks by miles. He does it with absolutely no effort.

Dzeko and Miske were amazing that match! I'm happy to see they are in form for the playoffs.

Nah Macheda was really solid. His turns and spins around the defender reminded me a bit of Ruud, the difference being Rudd did it every game against elite defenses. Even when he was pushed to the left flank after Rooney's arrival, he was very dangerous.

He's added weight and may be grew an inch or two and looking very fit.

I'm not surprised though. They became champion last year with one of the lowest point totals in history.

Anyway, I really don't like the direction Turkish football is heading. The lack of professionalism and the childishness displayed by both directors, fans and the football media is embarrassing. There's nothing wrong with some good old passion, but only if it is combined with some humbleness, realistic analyses and reason.
