Agreed. Never quite understood why Liverpool signed Balotelli either, that was a massive gamble that misfired.

The strange thing about the Lambert signing was that he was never the type to fit into the supposed Liverpool 'style' and therefore never used. Poor buy. Not a poor player though. Balotelli has a different talent, so I could understand that more if you thought as a manager you'd be able to sort out what goes on between his ears which appears to be the main problem with him. The manager must have lost a lot of brownie points with those signings.

Seems BT Sport will get La Liga rights too. Wonder where that will leave Sky. Good for BT Sport customers though.

La Liga have also changed their 5pm Saturday KO times to 5.15 to suit UK viewers. TV are not allowed show any live football before 5.15 on a Saturday which often led to a 15 minute studio discussion about a game which was underway but we couldn't watch the first 15 minutes of.

I don't know what to expect this season. If Chelsea lose injury prone Costa for long periods they could be in trouble.


Arsenal appear to have a wealth of attacking talent. If they don't win it this year will they ever?


Are City still as ageing a team as I thought they were? I suppose Sterling will help but not sure if he of the birthday cake isn't on a downward spiral.


As for United, they have made some good signings it seems but are they all going to be integrated into the 1st XI? That never seems to work. They still need a CF and probably a CH though LVG spoke about wanting an attacking player with speed. Bale rumours have started again. Now he would be a good buy.


Prediction:

Arsenal

Chelsea

Man.Utd

City (Manager on Death Row isn't a good idea)


These 4 quite a way ahead of the rest.

Legia Warsaw Are Awarded a 3-0 Win By UEFA 12 Months After Urging Celtic to ?Settle Matters Honourably?

AUGUST 4TH, 2015 DCAW FOOTBALL 0 COMMENTS

Legia Warsaw have been awarded a 3-0 win over Albanian side FK Kukesi after their Europa League first-leg tie was abandoned last week.


The game was stopped after Midfielder Ondrej Duda was carried off the pitch after being hit by a stone thrown from the partizan Albanian crowd early in the second half, with his side 2-1 up.


In addition to the forfeit, Kukesi will have to play their next Uefa match behind closed doors and have been fined ?49,160.

I'm surprised so many are tipping Chelsea. I tipped them myself last season but felt they got off lightly with so few injuries and the others being a bit crap. Always hard to defend the title too.

I see Spurs have got another friendly tonight, did someone forget to tell them that the PL kicks off in 3 days time?...

      Europe, very much so, the whole of August is a write-off, if you want anything delivered from there, forget it, but there's no similar summer shutdown period in the UK as such, just people taking hols while kids off school etc. The nearest the UK construction sector has to a proper shut down is the Christmas/New Year period when, depending on when the Bank Holidays fall, there's an approx 10-14 day unofficial shutdown between Christmas and New Year...

      Dell Autos is closing tomorrow

      There's planning permission for 2 houses.  Southwark planning site is too slow today to use, but found this link from Savills to auction the site: https://auctions.savills.co.uk/auctions/19--26-november-2024-158/3335-hansler-road-east-dulwich-london-se22-9dj-13236   Edited to add that the inclusion of lower ground floor in the planning application description indicates that basements will be dug.  Looks like Fellbrigg/Hansler is up for some heavy construction traffic next year.

      He looks like the human version of the 😡 emoji. I'm sure he's lovely in real life (whoever he is).

      Absolutely, Insuflo I very much doubt that anyone other than football fans would have heard of Dyche, much less his views on false number nines, mobile centre halves  dropping into midfield or diamond formations. But all middle-aged, portly, bald, gruffly spoken football fans from north of the capital who eschew fancy Dan tactics for the traditional, English merits of 4-4-2 shall be deemed knuckle-dragging Neanderthals by the Wokerati and the Metropolitan Elite. They care not what his views are, only that he looks like the sort of person who may have them. It's political correctness gone mad. But they, unlike Dyche, won't have a pub named after them.
