Bozanic apparently close to agreeing to a deal with Spezia. Quote:For the second, the closest target is Oliver Bozanic, Australian of Serbian origin, but currently free transfer back from two seasons at Lucerne. Central midfielder or left inner part of the Australian National, with whom he also participated in the 2014 World Cup. The agreement with the player is basically already been found (two-year?) And days could be defined. http://www.speziacalcionews.it/speciale-calciomercato/

Football is a sport fulls of subjectively valued qualitative factors. In qualitative fields, statistics only illustrate and illuminate arguments, they are not the basis of the argument... i dont care about his views, i dont care that he expresses them. Mostly I am really over him hijacking every fucking thread to pick tard fights and smashing out endless incoherent replies that no one ever reads. you need to learn some constraint tardtho. qaulity over quantity. cap your responses per day or something.

Ardhos extreme faith in elo is eyebrow raising and amusing
but it probably takes that much faith in elo to know a lot about it!
I learn from some of his posts and find them interesting

I learn from some of his posts and find them interesting I am interested in how the system works and it is valuable (arguably ) having someone with knowledge of a way to quantitatively judge football, but I am pretty sick of watching possibly legitimate threads being derailed because of his controversial football opinions.

If the same person keeps repeating literally stupid opinions and non-facts about everything from rankings of football teams to the economy of Russia without bothering to actually learn or correct themselves, that's not the kind of person that should be looked favourably upon in terms of anything dealing with statistics or even logic.
Copy and pasting statistics from a website doesn't mean someone has knowledge or is correct. It means they know how to copy and paste things.

I can not see why he would not have some sort of knowledge regarding a system that he refers to in 75% of posts, however I may be grossly overestimating him if that is not the case.

Just saw a report of Holland who should start against Schalke in the cup today.
His German wasn't bad.

Ikonomidis on the bench v Juventus. It's some super cup thing in Shanghai.
By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

Mitch Langerak is currently doing stamina training.
The Australian international goalkeeper had suffered a muscle tear in the bundle preparation (currently in the running training).

Isn't Burgess injured? I might be confused though - as Taggart just injured/re-injured himself recently? Quite the blow for Taggart - he'll miss season start apparently. :/

Your stubborn reliance solely on elo ratings to start bitter, unprovoked feuds against posters that in many cases don't even disagree with you which spoil the forum's atmosphere do not need further discussion. Consider me guilty for getting sucked in to yet another one of your derailing attempts. Now that the new season has started, however, I would like to see you man up to my challenge of starting a thread to help other forumers make millions off sports betting just like you claim to have done.

Jedinak confirmed to not be in Palace's best 11 anymore.
West Brom would be a great move for him, think they'll push high mid table.

Holland starting v Schalke Luongo starting Kruse on the bench Burgess played for the U21s yesterday. Not up to first team standards yet.
By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.
