i had a feeling rvp will score

Wow Salah..

Real Madrid were awful tonight and still left Bayern with a mountain to climb. Lewandowski and Muller completely anonymous; a 35 year old their biggest attacking threat (Bayern).

Lewandowski fluffing that one on one at the end was a killer.

Can't help but feel it would have been a different story if Coman, Alaba and Vidal were available, and if Robben didn't go off injured. They ran out of ideas in the second half.

I think Liverpool can do it this year. Both defenses will cede chances, but I think Liverpool will have more in the final third.

A lot will depend on Ronaldo, who was dreck tonight.

Kroos and Marcelo. Ballers.

I really hope Liverpool will win, because this would also be a win for Offensive Football in general. Klopp let's all his teams play attacking and entertaining football, in contrast to these sport killers like José Mourinho..

Man Utd v Arsenal today.

This game was always the game of the season between 98-2005 and decided the title many times, but now this is just another game and has had no relevance to the out come of the title for many years. This will be Wengers lat visit to OT as an Arsenal manager. I'm sure he'll play his 2nd team has Arsenal have the 2nd leg of the Europe league against Madrid coming up..

My favorite professional team was always Manchester United with Sir Alex as their manager. Why, because he tried to win every game even the ones that did not matter.

Always even his 2nd team was super good. Because he knew how to manage a team so they could still would win games. He never really had a whole second team in a game. He had a lot of starters in with some non starters. His non starters were still very very good.

I was also a big juventus fan. When they came here to play a game at giants stadium I was there with a hundred of my soccer acquaintances most of whom were italian. Then they played Manchester United. Talent wise both team were similar. But sir Alex used that talent much better then the juventus manager did. We left disappointed but from that day I was a sir Alex fan.

Juventus manager divided his talent half his starters played the first half and the second half of his starters played the last half. It’s hard to win when you do that and he lost to a better manager.

Hey Billy and with two dutch players Virgil and Wijnaldum. Koeman will be happy.

5-0 up almost halfway through the tie and yet Liverpool still don't deserve to be in the final.

Several dodgy refereeing decisions , a couple of stupid errors and profligacy in front of goal cost Roma tonight.

Real Madrid will hAve too much quality in the final.

Liverpool's defence is just too porous.

A few days after Mother’s Day Ramadan starts. Any one know how muslem players deal with that? Meaning the praying 5 days and more importantly the fasting?

I had some muslem players and I know how we felt with it during the season and during tournament play.

Some teams with a lot of muslims wil train late more than an hour after sundown so they can eat first others will train less hard only on matchday it could be a real problem they ate as late as possible before the game.

On the praying 5 Times a day. They can combine the praying to three times day.

On the fasting if you had a tournament you could move away for a few weeks like if you played in Mexico two reasons to train in the higher altitude. If you had money you could always move the team a couple of weeks before the game or longer. If they are away from home they are dispensed with the fasting until they return home.

That is how Iran's National team deals with it when playing an international.

I left it up to them if they could play or not. They told me they can still play even though they fasted. I had enough other players so I did not have to play them. I see them in practice and decide before the game how long they could play or if they would play. They always played

i wonder what summer transfers will happen
neymar to madrid ?
aguero to atletico madrid ?
it will be interesting transfer window for that's for sure

RvP will play another season that will be his last year.

ohh i hope he will win the league title ! ! !

The U.S. Soccer team did not even qualify for the World Cup.

Dues neither did the Dutch team and neither did the italian team. We are living in a crazy world when it comes to football.

not crazy...
tbh the dutch national team are not that strong as they used to
rvp wesley sneijder and robben are old
they don't have any world class midfielder
they do have great defense.
same with you guys (usa)
Italy are fine they just had bad luck (although they don't have good striker )

Matt Doherty, who can play LB or RB, and played mostly as a wing back this season for Wolves, will be playing Premier League football next season. He's of Dutch descent on his mother's side of the family but recently made his Ireland debut.

I always thought Holland dropped the ball by not approaching him, considering how long it took Ireland to cap him.

He'd definitely be an asset to Holland now, which, in fairness, mightn't have been the case 10 years ago.

Starts on the 14th?


I love watching outside in my backyard.

I got a TV hooked up outside by then.

Who’s the Longshot?

England?

I think they start off with Tunisia

I am going to try and post the schedule.

I think I can make a link and post it.

USA is not in the world cup. So i hope Germany or England wins. My bloodlines.

My wife is from Carribean , her team is always Brazil.

Usa has finally a legit star in Pulisic and they didnt qualify.

Lazio 2-3 Inter in Serie A this evening.

Lazio 2-1 up after 78 minutes and on course to qualify for the Champions League at the expense of Inter, who needed to win.

Then, Stefan De Vrij concedes a penalty, Inter equalize, and then go on to win the game after a series of questionable tactical decisions by Lazio coach, Simone Inzaghi.

Stefan De Vrij had already agreed to join Inter in the summer.

Robben and Sneijder are gone, we need a couple of years to get back where we belong, dont worry the future looks bright.
The Dutch team under 17 has been crowned the European champion in England. The team won in the final after penalty kicks from the peers of Italy.

Because of the absence of my country Holland at the World Cup, I will be supporting out neighbors Belgium: The Red Devils!!!

I can't understand, for the life of me, why their Spanish coach Roberto Martinez has left the superb midfielder Radja Nainggolan out of his selection for the World Cup:

Looking forward to the CL Final.

Klopp can do it I believe. Three times in a row for Real won't happen because it never happened!
