If I was Özil, I would select Barça. Real Madrid has only stars except Casillas and Marcelo.

I still believe this one: 1999-00 Real > 2001-06 Real = 2009-11 Real.

Really do you think he would be better joined in Barcelona? I would say no, because a Iniesta, Xavi and Messi for Barcelona play, he would have had no chance
Real Madrid is already a very good choice for him

Fixed. You really think Casillas is not a star on Real Madrid? Really? The best goalkeeper Spain ever had. Really?

[J@3]

If I was Ozil I would've gone to Atletico or Sevilla or something. At least then he wouldn't rot on the bench.

UEFA Europa League

I was confused about Utrecht and Sporting...

Utrecht: 0-2, 4-0 against Celtic
Sporting: 0-2, 3-0 against Brondby

BTW; Galatasaray (former UEFA Cup winner), Fenerbahçe (lost the championship at last match), Trabzonspor (Turkish Cup winner) were over in last minutes.

Galatasaray: 1-0 at 90+1. 2 mins after Karpaty Lviv (UKR) scored a goal and became 1-1. Lviv eliminated Galatasaray. (First match 2-2 at Istanbul)
Fenerbahçe: 1-0 at 50. PAOK (GRE) scored a goal at overtime in 102. PAOK eliminated Fenerbahçe with a score 1-1. (First match 1-0 at Thessaloniki)
Trabzonspor: 1-0 at 83. End of match: 1-2. Liverpool win the match at last 10 mins. (First match 1-0 at Liverpool)

Besiktas defeated HJK Helsinki (FIN). (First match 2-0 at Istanbul, second match 0-4 at Helsinki)


UEFA Europa League draws:
Group L - Porto, Besiktas, CSKA Sofia, Rapid Wien.

UEFA Champions League draws:
Group C - Manchester Utd., Valencia, Glasgow Rangers, Bursaspor

That would be a very good alternative for Özil

UEFA Europa League

I was confused about Utrecht and Sporting...

Yeah confused was I about Fener and Galatasaray, the both Teams are now big loser in my eyes for ever

You're welcome to Liverpool Mario Gomez!

YNWA

Galatasaray signed Misimovic. 1 hour after: Galatasaray signed Emiliano Insua.

Both of Insua's are at Turkey (Federico-Bursa, Emiliano-GS)

[kibaxx7]

wtf? Robinho to Milan..
Ronaldinho-Ibrahimovic-Pato-Robinho= UNSTOPPABLE

My new PES Master League squad But then I'd sell Pato for an exorbitant price, as Robinho - Ibra - Jar Jar Binks is just incredible, and three of my fav players ever.

[J@3]

Lol yeah you won't get bored with that team and quit after 3 weeks

[|)e8*]

Pato is awesome

[bruno_borat]

LOL,I play master league for about 3 days and i quit.haha

[kibaxx7]

Actually, no. Too good to quit.

EDIT: My bad. Didn't bother to read the date of the article because of my wtf reaction to it.

[J@3]

That was from months ago, they pretty much forced them to change their mind. No ban now.

[kibaxx7]

Nigeria's president is called "Goodluck Jonathan"?

Today was my shit moment. Chelsea loses. Arsenal has the chance to get to only 1 point behind, against WBA. 0-3 at 75 mins. 2-3 at 90 mins. And they save the 3-3 with just secs left.

That blows. Makes me want to burn my Arsenal shirt.

[kibaxx7]

It has happened in recent seasons; when the team needs to step up or take advantage of the leaders who losed a match, they don't, and they seem like shy of going to attack.

Not to mention the Gunners haven't had an acceptable goalkeeper in years.

VALENCIA

[Cartar]

Last month we (Estonia) didn't manage to maintain the lead against Italy. Today, we beat Serbia in their home court 3-1. Awesome.

[kibaxx7]

Worthy of a bump... Barcelona just beat Real Madrid 5-0... an incredible display of soccer. Could have been at least 8 goals with all the shots Barca had.

[Axel The Great]

Yeah, take that Real. Was expecting a win from Barca, but not by this much.
