I don't think Jozy is on the CL roster.. I would love to see him though.

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

Villareal squad for today:

Goalkeepers: Diego López and Viera.
Defenders: Javi Venta, Ángel, Gonzalo, Fuentes, Cygan and Capdevila.
Midfield: Marcos Senna, Edmilson, Bruno, Cazorla, Eguren, Ibagaza, Pires and Mati Fernández.
Forwards: Guille Franco and Rossi.

I'd rather have Sergio 'Kun' Aguero. Hell, give Micheal Owen an adamantium skeleton and I'll take him!

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

haha adamantium... riot.. Aguero is certainly a very good striker... I just remember the possibility of Poldolski from the summer transfer...
Jozy has a lot of work to do to make the starting squad for Villareal.

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

Don't get me wrong, I think Podolski is a great player, just whether he'd slot into the squad where we'd need him, we've got Voronin, and he and Podolski (IMO) are similar - whether he's better or not is a different question. Maybe we should give N'gog and Nemeth a chance, N'gog looks promising, and seems to get in the positions our other strikers can't.

Despite Mr Owen's seemingly cardboard skeleton, he's still the most prolific English footballer at this time - on average, scoring 1 goal every 2 games over his entire career. Including Spain. 398 total league and cup club appearances, 200 goals.

anybody gonna be rockin the pink boots?

Only Ribery could make these look less than girly, good choice

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

Ribery is awesome... too bad he's French. I can't really see him with the pink though, weird.

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

He might be the ugliest player since Tevez.

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

too true Ribery's wife is hotter though...

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

There is nobody uglier than Tevez. Although Ivan Campo gives him a run for his money.

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

pnoon, lump and JDB, what do y'all think about Andrea Dossena? I'm watching the 'pool v Marseille match and he's been so questionable at times, and then made a tackle on that may have saved a goal... but he just hasn't quite settled in English football.. can we have Riise back?

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

It was a shame to see Riise leave. Always liked his tenacity and ferocious left foot.

Dossena - not a fan.

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

Dossena seems to think Skrtl's haircut will help him. I don't think many players coming from 8 years of Serie A/Italian football will settle straight into Premiership style football, but give him a dozen or so more appearances, I reckon he'll become, at the very least, capable!

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

Good point. I sure hope you're right.

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

Me too!:tu

Re: The Official Soccer/Football/Futbol/Calcio thr
 

Dossena is definitely no Skrtel or Riise. He's just to inconsistent. While, I can live with some inconsistency in a striker that will just seem to get lost during games, that is not trait I like to see with my backs.

I have been pretty pleased with Agger's performance since Skrtel went down. He has made a couple mistakes on defense but on the whole played well and gives added pressure on the offensive send as a bonus.

Chelsea 1-2 Arsenal

Looks like it's the season to beat Chelsea at home. And Arsenal scored all the goals!
