Yeah, but specifically about the portugese league. The portugese league and the scotish league are both mediocre bar the top few teams. More so than other leagues.

Have to agree with this TBH. Apart from the big four in Portugal and maybe Braga this year there is nothing. The same as Scotland with Rangers and Celtic.

In terms of title excitement the Bundesliga has to be the best. Every season anyone could win it.

I was counting Braga in the 'big four' along with Porto, Sporting and Benfica. Regardless, Di Maria's top performances have come against mediocre sides and he's worth 20m at a stretch.

My mistake somehow counted someone else apart from Porto, Sporting, Benfica and Braga:lol:

Yeah at the very most he's worth 20m but even that's a bit much TBH.

Yeah, as I said at most he's worth 20m. He's valued at aboyt 15m on today's open transfer market.

I had this discussion yesterday with someone and they said that Ronaldo was worth 12m when United bought him. But he was only 18, younger had more potential and could play on both sides of the pitch. He had the potential to be homegrown when he was signed. Di Maria can't be homegrown, is left-sided only and is far from as good as Ronaldo.

WGMG: Deciding that I'll be good and start an assignment early, only to find that the University website has been down for maintenance for the last 4 days.

I tried to tell myself that. It failed miserably.

WGMG: My last full day in Byron, and it's raining. Not really much else to do up her ebut go to the beach, meh, i'lll get wet anyway

Whats your fucking problem, as if you wouldnt want your club to sign a few of those players and where has any United here mentioned Vukcevic? I rate Di Maria highly and think that he is the natural succesor to Giggs, Fergie went to see him play when Benfica played Everton and apparently he has been keeping tabs, Im not just merely fantasizing about it because there are strong rumours that United are keen on signing him. Also Sporting told City that it would take something between 25-30 mil and we reportedly had a Nani plus cash offer rejected for him

I agree with that, I love watching it on ONE, the quality is good, its an open race and the supporters are incredible

The fans are tops. The Bundesliga isn't quite that open though. They as much have traditional power houses as any other league. Wolfsburg were just a surprise last year.

Anyone else read that article about it in FFT a couple of months back? Made me want to go to germany.

The one about 2 years ago about the Dortmund v Schalke rivalry was tops.

WGMG: itchy eyes.

WGMG: Broke PS3 controller. Right thumbstick broke so when I go to shoot someone I shoot the roof because it is so unstable

WGMG: Cramp in elbow.

I freak out when I drop my controller even on the carpet.

I'll take it you don't rage? I broke the last one because James Bond killed me and I threw it at the wall :lol:

WGMG: Knowing if I fall asleep now, I'll probably miss the Arsenal vs Barca match.

The Arsenal/Barca match is on? :lol:

WGMG: David Basheer. So fucking biased towards Barcelona.

+ fucking 1

That would be THE WHOLE OF SBS though.

And people wonder why I HATE him and Craig Foster...

WGMG: Fozzie going on and on and on and on about Barca 'out-footballing the EPL's best footballing side.'

Fair play to Barca, but:

#1. You can't play your best 'football' without your #10.
#2. It's going to be hard to contain Barca without a good DM such as Song.
#3. With Gallas missing and replacing him with Silvestre wasn't going to end well.

Basheer after Messi's second goal

"2 nil Barca! Err, Messi has made it 2-1!"

:oops:

:lol: Haha yeah, I remember that.

I lol'd when he said that. SBS really needs a revamp. But they'll never do that.

I agree, very anti english and pro Barca sentiments amongst the crew especialy in Fozzies case. Basheer is moronic, his commentary is usually woefull and mistake ridden and Fozzie verbaly masturbates over Barca

When Denilson got that bullshit yellow card for a tackle wheeee he got all of tha ball and Basheer goes " definate yellow card terrible tackle by Denilson." I felt like smashing my fucking tv. Replays showed that Denilson clearly gt all of the and wasn't even a fk let alone a yellow card yet he continued bias.

I thought it was kind of sad how depressed fozzie seemed when he was talking about Barcelona not passing as well as they usually do and how they had 150-200 less passes than normal, but instead of saying arsenal did well pressuring them and learnt their lesson from the first leg he continues with his Barca jizz fest.

Am I the only one who thinks spider Kalac shouldn't be allowed on tv again. Like Spider i lov you mate and you're a great bloke but your a meat head :d :lol: :lol:

They really do. I'd love to have a crack. I think I can do just as good a job as Foster and Basheer. Give some new lads a crack coming up to the world cup!

Yeah...a crippled version of it. Good on ya mate #-o Arsenal missing their best three players and you still reckon they can take the game to Barca? Really?

Yeah. Keepers shouldn't be allowed to do special comments period. Mark Bosnic is a decent commentator, but when he goes all 'special comments' his 'holier than thou' kind of midnset where he seems to assume he knows the inner workings of a players mind and he's the only person who can channel that to the viewer because he's the only person who understands what they're thinking is fucking annoying as all hell.

WGMG: These constant 'actor a v actor b' topics. It was ok the first few times, but now its fucking boring. And I'm saying that as someone who's a fair bit of a movie buff.

WGMG: All these fucking actor rivalry threads. No one really gives a fuck. Go to imdb if you wanna talk about that shit at every opportunity.
