:lmao: that got no love from anyone.
 
I'm disappointed that FSC has ended their SkySports transfer day coverage. It was an entertaining combination of non-committal interviews, breathless reporting of idle speculation and hilarious live stand-ups with fans yelling in the background.

 
Is there a weirder sport then Cricket?

buzkashi is played with a headless goat carcass
:shock:
In Qarajai, players must carry the carcass around a flag or marker at one end of the field, then throw it into a scoring circle (the "Circle of Justice") at the other end.
:lmao: :lmao:
Andy Carroll would be a perfect fit as the flag or marker
:lmao:
 
So Gooch in Champions League and not Dempsey :)

DONE DEAL: Oguchi ONYEWU has been loaned to Malaga from Sporting after passing a medical. (Per A Bola)

 
So what is this SuperCup? Totally different from CL I assume.
Winner of last years CL vs winner of last years Europa League.Relatively meaningless in the grand scheme.
The reason for my confusion is that I thought they were calling the Real Madrid - Barcelona matches the past two weeks Super Cup. I guess that is the Spanish version and this UEFA's version?
you got it!Real Madrid won the Spanish LeagueBarcelona won the Spanish Cup (Copa Del Rey. This is the Spanish equivalent of the FA Cup in England
 
Hope they stop upping the bid for Clint and move on. #Llorente
Unless you think Andy Carroll absolutely sucks, I don't know why you'd want Llorente for LFC. I'll concede that he moves well and is uncommonly skilled for his size, but he's still not what I would call a mobile striker. If Carroll is a "bad fit," so is Llorente.
 
RDM has reportedly confirmed that CFC are seeking a loan for Essien but it won't be to Arsenal. Meanwhile, Falcao has already put one in against the always-shakey Chelsea back line.

 
Daniel Sturridge looks like he's definitely not joining Liverpool. According to reports he turned down the move as he was only interested in a permanent deal, while Liverpool and wanted a loan move.

:wall:

They better perform some magic, and fast, or this transfer window has gotten real ugly.

REPORT: OK, several details emerging on Dempsey/Liverpool. In brief: Aston Villa offered $8m. Liverpool offered less.

 
Ryan Taylor hurt his knee yesterday and is facing an extended layoff. Newcastle is a thin team that already lacked depth for Premiership and European campaigns. An injury like this hurts them more than other teams.

I guess after getting hammered for spending way above value last year (for players who are all gone now except Henderson), they must be gunshy of pulling any moves off this year. I feel like I asked for an XBox for Christmas, and woke up on Christmas Day to an Intellivision.

So.... even if he returns, will he still get booed at Craven Cottage? I'd say- yes.

I would boo/whistle at him. I thought this whole thing was handled horribly from a PR stand point.

3 - Falcao is the first player to score a Super Cup hat-trick since Terry McDermott for Liverpool v Hamburg in 1977. Rare.

 
They should teach a course on how to bungle what should have been a fairly straight forward deal two weeks ago. Even after this mess, I wonder if he still ends up at Liverpool and everything is hunky dory

REPORT: Liverpool also offered players in trade; all of whom declined to join Fulham.

 
Looks like Chels has mailed this one in. Pretty different performance from their EPL games thus far.

Atlético is playing well, but not 4-0 well against a quality opponent.
