Mertens came on for Insigne and changed everything in Napoli's favor...poor Insigne obviously can't function with the fans not behind him. He is Napoli born and raised yet they boo him every time he gets the ball


Why are they doing this? Is there a story behind this or do they just not like him?

as far as I know it's just because he hasn't scored enough. Similar to what Juve fans have been doing to Giovinco, but Insigne seems to get it worse

Leverkusen win 3-2 in Copenhagen. After a crazy first half, they controlled the second and should've scored one or two more.

Disappointing performance from Arsenal ... Wenger should have bought a top striker and a top defensive midfielder, instead of spending his transfer funds on Sanchez ... They would probably still qualify for the group stages of the Champions League, but if they don't address their weaknesses in the coming days, they won't have much chances of going far in the Champions League or contending for the Premier League title ...

Are there even any good CF's and DM's in Arsenal's price range left for sale? Balotelli should do something Balotelli-like to give them a nice discount.

it is not really up to balotelli to give discount, i am sure his wages arent the problem. i don't think balo is worth the 20 million pounds it would take to pry him from milan either.

should go after jackson martinez. porto's window of making money out of him is getting smaller, i am sure they'll negotiate.

Knowing Porto´s transfer history, he might be more in the range of 40 M pounds (32-35 M euro)

What about Bony from Swansea?

porto's transfer is history is selling young players for exuberant prices. martinez is turning 28, no way they are getting 40 million pounds for him. even 20 probably pushing it.

You are right, still I think he may be nearer 30 M euro (thats 25 M pound right?). Not too many strikers out there.

Arsenal last two years signed Ozil and Sanchez, both very good players (especially Ozil) but those 90 M euro they spent in them they should have bought a world class striker instead.

Napoli-Bilbao perhaps the most interesting tie

I hope Maribor comes to the Champions league. They are playing today, but I think it will be very hard!

Seems unsurprising considering Celtic were absolutely outclassed by Legia losing 6-1. And Legia missed 2 pens as well in 1st leg.
