Played in November for the first time in two years. I'm still recovering.

 

Out of the people I've seen linked to England, I figure I'd probably take Hiddink if anyone.

 

I see Dallas's strategy for this season seems to be "Shit the bed about once a month to get all the suck out at once and then play well all other guys"

Outscored 20-0 in their six losses. Meaning their goal differential is 31-9 in the other 15 games

 

I don't want to make excuses because losing 5-0 is shit, but it was a team with 7 starters rested playing their 3rd game in 7 days. This one is slightly different to the other results.

 

The worst part about starting to play again after a long break is the blistering on your toes/feet. Gotta get past that stage so they're just callused.

 

I haven't played in a year and I really miss it. I keep trying to get into the metro league, but their supposedly "free agent single player" market supervisor won't return any emails to help me get onto a team.

 

Liverpool just got 8% less hate-able.

 

Or you can be like me and have calluses, start playing after the winter because I didn't play indoor, and then rip those calluses completely off your feet.

 

Got time to play soccer but ain't got time to pay the king of Europe?

 

What about the other big loses?

Sandbagging a handful.of games a season to rest your players and do far better in the rest is a legit strategy

 

The other games were just being shit.

I think Pareja was hoping for a good performance and maybe a lucky draw, but down to 10 men for 85 minutes put an end to that.

 

clearly us tanking the first half of the season was all a massive work to lure Pareja into a false sense of security so we could get this one win! /s

 

The Barca and Madrid away kits were announced today. Both are ace.

 

Speaking of kits, I hate how long it's taken United to release the new home kits over the past few years.

 

The Chelsea homes look like pajama tops.

 

So glad that United are with Adidas now

 

The new home kits are a wet noodle.

 

I'm so glad Madrid finally brought back the purple. My earliest memories are filled with purple kits. Gonna get me a long sleeve.

 

I think this is the year I go into debt for my Iniesta kit. That black/pink without a sponsor is

 

Now that Spurs have Janssen locked up all we need is another attacking mid and a backup CB behind Toby.

Really hoping for Boufal.

 

Independiente del Valle are incredible right now.

 

Are they not gonna have a sponsor?!? That's awesome. I wish that were the case for us.

Only team to eliminate both River and Boca in the same Copa Libertadores. Pretty cool.

 

Seems so! There's a sleeve sponsor, I think.

 

I, too, want a video of a coastal sunset and a picture of my dogs set to this song. What a gem.

 

Gotze is off back to Dortmund for €28m
