Anyone watch the Matildas Sunday morning ........from the last eleven away games we have 1 win

They were pretty bad against the Dutch

We will get out of the group stage in the WC ....how we go after that though ....maybe we shouldn't in the future let players demand a change of coach

If I am being realistic ...if we got these players I'd be happy

Brahimi from Porto midfield

Wesley from Club Brugge striker

Shaqiri from Liverpool midfield

Delph from Man city left back

Maripan from Alaves left back holding midfielder

French youngster Alexis Claude Maurice from Lorient Striker

I'm sure there's a talented youngster from Bilbao you could pinch, seems like all we do is feed English chequebook clubs now. Talk was Liverpool were looking at snaffling Inaki Williams.

Nah seems like AC are willing to drop the price tag on Hakan Calhanoglu

Dead ball specialist would be real handy ....the last bloke we had turned the club around and then .......hurts too much

Dump Delph for Hakan on that list
 
Rather new to the EPL (3rd season) watching. Grew up with Serie A. Love the Portuguese revolution at Wolverhampton. Thoroughly enjoyed watching them this past season.
 
What are the odds of Mike Ashley backing out of another takeover for Newcastle...
 
Can't believe the pitch invader got a $25000 fine

Judge didn't watch the game ....should of got $25000 for adding some interest in the game

For what it's worth. I hope the takeover goes through and Rafa stays on. Big fan of Rafa since he was coach of my fathers team Napoli

Being a Newcastle supporter must be extremely frustrating ...when your clubs purchases seem to be solely to scrap through another season

WHU on the other hand act like they want big names ....but want them to sign for half of what they are worth and then blame opposition clubs for being too greedy lol

If our best striker option ends up being Rondon .........looks like Mitrovec is even brushing us

.No guarantee of getting past group stage. Italy were ranked 15th us at 6th. Brazil is ranked 10th so won't be a pushover. Against Italy we had heaps of opportunities that weren't converted and we should have won convincingly. Apparently the defence is playing a whole new style that is crazy to implement just before a major tournament. They were caught out a number of times.

I didn't see us losing to Italy and some groups have the 3rd best team qualifying

Obviously the Italy v Brazil game takes on huge importance as does the scoreline

The Matildas back 4 is as slow as the WT's back 5
 
@guyofthetiger

Absolutely guyofthetiger.

We'll surely open a new comp as soon as EPL Fantasy League starts again.

No Eden Hazard this time round .......
