Champions of everything (again) thread

[ShiftyPowers]

Which isn't really fair, especially in a sport like football where 1 player has the least influence over the success of a team than in any other sport.

Fuck the germans, Palacio and Highain. imagine WC and Copa champion in 2 summers.. Would have been a dream.

Who cares about the Copa? CL and WC is where it's at.

Brazil didn't win any Copa from 1949-1989 ... they won 3 world cups in that period ... Brazil 1970 and Brazil 1982 played in that period ... Pele and Maradona didn't win Copa, I don't understand why Copa America became a dream all of sudden ... We are talking about the competition that Mexico plays with their B team.

When we look at Messi Legacy in 20 years ... his champions league medals and even World Cup 2nd place are far more impressive ...

 

[Arnau]

Holy shit we are signing Arda Turan

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Stop posting Barcelona news in the Chelsea thread.

 

[Arnau]

Chelsea never won everything twice!

 

[Arnau]

35m + 6. He signs for 5 years.

 

[Mandieta6]

What a stupid transfer. You're gonna regret that in 2 years. If you don't regret spending at least 35 (fee alone) on a bench player.

 

[Arnau]

Yeah, we should have signed Milner instead.

We only had an aging Iniesta, Rakitic and young Rafinha for 2 spots. Arda Turan is a VERY good transfer. Knows the championship and fits Luis Enrique's game model (very technique player, associative, dribbler, hard worker, good in counters...)

 

[Xaviesta]

Arda would be a great transfer, exactly what Lucho wanted. This is one of the most unexpected transfers in the last years, incredible. We should wait for the official confirmation, though,

 

[Dytza]

Great transfer, hope it goes through; one of my favourite players, too bad he scores as much as Iniesta.

 

[Arnau]

Arda throwing a boot to the fat spanish waiter. I see it.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Arda would be a great transfer, exactly what Lucho wanted. This is one of the most unexpected transfers in the last years, incredible. We should wait for the official confirmation, though,

What are you talking about? ArnauSG is conformation.

 

[Arnau]

Another good thing from Arda Turan is that he has the antimadridista feeling well learned already.

 

[Deisler]

Watch Neymar go.to city now.

 

[Arnau]

What? He is coming to play in the midfield

 

[Xaviesta]

Bartomeu just said that Arda Turan has been requested by Lucho. He would cost around 35M and he should be confirmed in 1 or 2 days. Looks like it's a done deal, holy shit!

 

[Mandieta6]

Interesting because I keep hearing that Arda has a deal with ManU but is waiting for Chelsea to pounce.

Personally I'd rather you got him. Especially since he'll be 30 when you actually get to use him.

 

[Arnau]

Because Barça has no president and the people in charge is waiting for the elections but Atletico need the cash already and is making pressure with United and Chelsea bids

 

[Xaviesta]

Messi has two trebles, but he has yet to win vs Tata Martino.

 

[Arnau]

Against Chile elite-pressing that fucking twat decided to isolate Messi... Holy shit Tata! Messi is a total player right now, he should have played deeper and help the team to break that pressing. Not to mention the morons of his teamates, a lot of situation where they decided to cross instead just give the ball to Messi who were waiting outside the box.
