gareth bale scored 2 free kicks against lyon in europa league
in spain they call him the left footed cristiano ronaldo
i would love to see him at real madrid

[video=youtube_share;PFgi6uUBTbM]http://youtu.be/PFgi6uUBTbM[/video]

I hope he doesn't. The problem with European football is that the big teams take many of the top players and that weakens the overall competitiveness.

Real is another evil empire like MU, Bayern, Barcelona, AC Milan etc.

It would be interesting to see Bale and Ronaldo together, but I still don't want it to happen.

Yes Ba has scored only three goals for chelsea so far,two in the F.A. cup,one in the PL.Incidentally,all these goals have come against Southhampton-a poor side. Regarding the media,they are still busy worshiping the African savior who has come to save them from the dreadful Torres.They are too blind to notice that Ba is a downgrade on Torres.Ba has been very poor,worse than I expected actually. I agree Torres hasn't been to the expected standard,but Ba is definitely not the solution.Falcao/Cavani etc. would be expensive,of course.I think Chelsea should have gone for someone like Llorente,but as it is run by the jew,they give Chelsea another nice touvh of diversity.

with torres, the media act like they don't know that torres will never be the striker he used to be, because he got a big knee injury
the same happened to fat-ronaldo, to owen too i think
they were/are still able to score enough goals by using their superior technique but they are never going to be the same player again
so it's not a surprise to see torres struggling a little
i even told it at the beginning of the season when he scored a lot

ba on the other hand is still the same player he was at newcastle a few weeks ago
now newcastle is better without him, and chelsea with him is worse than it was in the first part of the season

I just don't want the same teams to get all the top players. Tottenham is a pretty big team that can play CL next year. The goal should be to build teams like this up so they can compete for the title with MU,Man City or Real and Barca for a team like Athletico Madrid in Spain. They can't do that if they lose Bale or Arsenal loses VAn Persie. I want a little more parity.

Of course, a purge of the African players and weak South Americans like Santos is a must too.

Three foreigners per team would help to create more parity along with spending limits.

Has anybody seen Hernandez at MU get down on his knees and ten put his hands out to his side in prayer right before the start off the game. It looks ridiculous. Can't he just say a prayer to himself if he wants to pray?

I am tired of all these South Americans and Africans making the sign of the cross all the time, as if they remotely try to follow it.

try to follow what?

i think that they try to show it less than before, for political correctness
in the early 2000's you would see more of it
now not that much
the camera changes everytime a player is about to do it

From what I've come across, Gervinho is extremely unpopular with the Arsenal fans:
http://hereisthecity.com/2012/12/17...act-on-twitter-to-news-gervinho-will-get-ext/
Arsenal fans react on Twitter to news Gervinho will get extra rest

Arsenal's Gervinho has taken a lot of flak of late, and now Gunners fans are even celebrating that he could miss several months.

@goonerspage: We have to be the only team that is happy with players going toAFCON,Gervinho will be called up for Ivory Coast next month; get in!!

@tobywaller90: Wenger would like to give Gervinho an extended rest after the African Cup Of Nations...hopefully that means him never playing again! #AFC

@salahdigineous: We need 2 bounce back now...gervinho on his way 2 #afcon..am very very happy i hope he get injured there #flop

@arianazevedo: He can stay recovering for the rest of the season :):):):) RT "@Arsenal: Arsene Wenger may give Gervinho more time to recover

@ughlisha: gervinho got 34 days till afcon lol imagine a worse gervinho afterafcon...... please don't come back ever

@dan_j_farrell: 'Wenger may give Gervinho more time to recover' - How about….. Forever?

Europe -

I concur. Some semblance of parity is essential otherwise things become way too predictable. Who wants to see the same couple of clubs win everything in sight over and over and over again? Well, apart from the fans of the said clubs, that is. I certainly don't...

Along with the mass influx of Negroes and other scum, the factor which eventually dimmed my interest in football from the second half of the 1990s was the continued and ever-increasing dominance of a few big clubs. Let's use England as an example...

In the decade just passed (2000-2009), a mere three clubs won the championship (Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea). Not much parity and competition there, eh?

In comparison, back in the 1950s, 6 clubs won the championship (Portsmouth, Spurs, Manchester United, Arsenal, Wolves, Chelsea). The 1960s - coincidentally, the decade in which England won their only World Cup - were even better, for a whopping 8 different clubs won the title (Burnley, Spurs, Ipswich, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City, Leeds). I would love to have witnessed those seasons, in which the competition was far more balanced, for 8 different clubs also finished in the runners up position (Wolves, Sheffield Wednesday, Burnley, Spurs, Manchester United, Leeds, Nottingham Forest, Liverpool).

The 1980s were dominated by Liverpool, who won six titles and were runners up on three occasions. But five other clubs besides Liverpool finished second during the decade (Manchester United, Ipswich, Watford, Southampton, Everton). The 2000s saw a similar six-championship domination by Manchester United. This time, however, only three other clubs besides Manchester United finished as runners up (Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea).

Following its takeover by the Abu Dhabi United Group (owned by Sheikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nahyan) Manchester City has "emerged" as a nouveau riche "big club", spending obscene amounts of money in a vulgar drive for silverware. This scenario provides the blueprint for "modern" English (and, increasingly, wider European) football - the sole challenge to the established mega-clubs coming from clubs purchased by "Oriental potentates" with bottomless pockets who view spending hundreds upon hundreds of millions of pounds on a squad as an amusing hobby.

I'm expecting the Chinese to eventually get in on the act, with a state-owned company purchasing an English club. As they play in red, Liverpool would be a likely candidate...

Scotland's Old Firm epitomises the poisonous two-team hegemony which makes for an anticlimactic fan experience season after season. Forget the fact that Rangers finally went bust last year and were consequently relegated to the Third Division - they'll be back in the top flight in no time (2016 to be precise...). Meanwhile, Celtic are currently 19 points clear and on course to win their 44th Scottish Championship (yawn...).

Here's a bit of trivia for You: Celtic and Rangers have won every championship since 1986, which totals an unbroken run of 27 years. This equals their longest continuous sequence of titles from 1905 to 1931, which colloquially established them as the "Old Firm". Celtic's inevitable win this season shall extend that run to a record-breaking 28 years...

I'm fortunate enough to remember the final non-Old Firm champions. Dundee United and Aberdeen won for three successive seasons between 1983 and 1985. This led to fans and commentators dubbing them the "New Firm" - which sounds rather laughable today, doesn't it? I often wonder if I'll see another champion from outside the Old Firm in my lifetime...

The first half of the 1980s was also an exciting era in Spanish football, for the all-Basque clubs Real Sociedad and Athletic Bilbao won two championships each in the four seasons between 1981 and 1984. In case anyone is thinking that I have erred in labelling Real Sociedad an all-Basque club, keep in mind that they only signed their first non-Basque player - John Aldridge - in 1989.

Of the 28 seasons since 1984, Real Madrid and Barcelona have won a combined 24 championships, the last winner from outside the "big two" being Valencia back in 2004. Just for a "change", Barcelona presently hold a twelve point lead over second-placed Atletico Madrid, with Real Madrid a further four points back. Now, what's the bet that Barcelona and Real Madrid shall finish as the top two yet again? The word "monotonous" springs to mind...

Believe it or not, I'd like to see Gareth Bale stay at Spurs. As much as I despise the club, I'd prefer Tottenham to hold on to him and endeavour to build a quality (White, or as White as possible) team capable of truly challenging for the title rather than flogging him off to the likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona, or Manchester United. But that's the point at which the bane of modern football shall predictably step in - namely, money...

Anyway, here's the breakdown from last weekend's solitary Premier League match, played on Sunday, February 17:

Liverpool 5 Swansea City 0

LIVERPOOL:


Started: 7 Whites (3 Englishmen), 3 blacks, 1 mestizo
Finished: 9 Whites (4 Englishmen), 2 blacks

SWANSEA:

Started: 4 Whites (2 Englishmen, 1 Welshman), 6 blacks, 1 Israeli
Finished: 4 Whites (2 Englishmen, 1 Welshman), 7 blacks

If it is to happen it wlll have to occur before 2016 when Rangers get back into the SPL. For the other teams (ie those without Irish supporters filling their coffers) to beat just one of the Old Firm teams it wlll be difficult enough but I suppose doable, but not both of them in the same season. The only other possibility, though unlikely, is if a non-Old Firm team gets a Dubai-type foreign owner.

Matra2 -

Barring any "remarkable" developments, I cannot envision any SPL club finishing above Celtic in the next two seasons. Taking Celtic's "devastating" quality into account, this is quite a telling observation... :icon_wink:

The probability of a fat Gulf Arab or chink who is rich / corrupt enough to wipe his arse with fifty quid notes ploughing a fortune into a non-Old Firm Scottish club is rather unlikely. People point to the Malaysian Chinese takeover of Cardiff City as evidence of the potential for such an eventuality, but the salient point in that case is that the Bluebirds (who now play home games in "lucky" Asian red...) compete within the English league system. This, of course, offers the juicy English Premier League carrots of massive money, marketing, and prestige - which the Scottish competition sorely lacks.

In terms of prospective match day revenue, Pittodrie (Aberdeen) and Easter Road (Hibs) are the only Scottish stadia besides Parkhead and Ibrox with a 20,000 plus capacity - apart from Hampden Park that is, which doubles as the home of Third Division amateurs Queen's Park.

Now, I wonder if some lissom-youth-fancying Sheikh Mohammed has thought of that... Just imagine Queen's Park as a third cashed-up Glasgow club splashing dosh about a la Manchester City. One thing's for sure - being a Partick Thistle fan would instantly become even more unbearable...:lol:

I was thinking along the lines of an oligarch or Arab businessman escaping from some autocratic country with his billions. He could offer big money to, say, Hearts in Scottish capital, in order to gain good will in case he needs to claim asylum (with his stolen billions) at some point in the future.:biggrin1:

Good old Vladimir Romanov...:icon_wink: What a champion, eh...

Incidentally, Hearts were done 2-3 at home by Caley Thistle overnight, which leaves them in tenth place (on 30 points...from 27 games...) :icon_lol:

Hearts have Liverpool (and England U-20) striker Michael Ngoo on loan. A typically dignified Negro specimen:

Gareth Bale is looking like the best player in the EPL of late. Too bad for Spurs Adebayor can't score headers from inside the six yard box with the West Ham keeper practically on the ground.

QPR have only started 3 Whites (Julio Cesar, Clint Hill, Esteban Granero) against Southampton.

****, I've switched tabs to look at the live score and that black bastard Loic Remy has put QPR ahead after 14 minutes. Bollocks to this! What a disaster. The nightmares have started and I'm not even asleep yet. Time for bed, I think...

for me it's impossible to root for chelsea now that they have a black striker
and they plan to buy other black players (aubameyang for example)

on the other hand i bought a manchester city jersey because i like the colour and i like the umbro jerseys and next season it will be a nike jersey
so i hope that they'll get whiter :lol:

It's too bad about Ba because Chelsea is a pretty white team. Ramires doesn't play all the time either. Hopefully, Ba will flop and they will not play Ramires too much. Ba got a lucky tap in today.

to look at the bright side, gareth bale's match against newcastle:

[video=dailymotion;xxk5kc]http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xxk5kc_gareth-bale-on-match-of-the-day_sport#.UTKyQ1fWplM[/video]


and his 2 free kicks (in the same match) against lyon:


ibferJZwgcVxoY.gif



ibvTqScwSXd8Ma.gif


for french fans, and more precisely olympique lyonnais fans, it was reminescent of the best lyon player ever, juninho: when he had a free kick it was like a penalty almost

his latest goal, an incredible one, against west ham (he scored 2 goals in that game )

isSXFiBPc9mfS.gif


he's the 3rd top scorer in the premiere league

rooney also had a great match, he offered 3 goals to kagawa and scored a great one:

Yup,poor guy scores only his third goal in chelsea blue,and it happens to be a dolly:baby::

Even though Ba has been so poor for Chelsea,not a word on him so far from the JEWISH press.Fernando Torres was crucified for being 10 times the player Ba is now.

manchester city right now are starting only 1 black player against evertonn
and 3 englishmen, which is not huge but seems to be normal (medium? don't know the word) for the premiere league judging from the breakdowns

City have started 8 Whites, 1 black (Kolo Toure), 1 mestizo (Carlos Tevez), and 1 half-Asian (David Silva) - and are down 0-1 to Everton (5 Whites, 3 blacks, 1 Arab, 1 half-Turk, 1 small-part Indonesian). Everton's goal came in the 32nd minute via the half-Turkish Leon Osman...

City are bound to get darker in the second half as their bench features 4 blacks, 1 Arab, 1 mestizo plus a lone White who just happens to be the reserve goalkeeper...

If City lose today while Manchester United beat Reading at Old Trafford, United shall be in an unassailable position - a fifteen point lead with a mere nine games (27 points) to play for.

Mind You, Everton's black South African Steven Pienaar has been sent off following a second yellow card, so I wouldn't be surprised if City end up with at least a point (which, however, won't help them much...).

We also have a relegation "six-pointer" with Aston Villa hosting Negro poster club Queens Park Rangers in less than an hour from now (when I shall be safely tucked away in bed...). Hopefully, Villa can consign Harry Redknapp's latest abomination to the scrap heap with a convincing win...

Hang on, City have brought on that poxy Arab Samir Nasri for Gareth Barry. That's my cue to piss off in disgust. Good night all...
