Great win for Dortmund.

And for the love of me, I don't understand why Moyes continues to not play Kagawa (mostly in the premier league).

Great win for my OLY guys. We've still got a daunting task at Old Trafford. We've historically been **** in England.

One of the most pathetic performances I've ever watched. If we lose at OT he's got to be sacked in the summer.

We were actually only behind Bayern and Dortmund in team coefficient last season because UEFA loves to reward Europa performance :lol:

Atletico won more points than Chelsea in 11/12 too. System's ****.

So Hulk asked Dortmund captain Sebastian Kehl yesterday about the possibility of joining Dortmund after this season. Kehl responded that he wasn't sure whether Dortmund could pay him.

Poor guy must really hate wasting away the best years of his career in Russia.

I never feel bad for these guys, either greed took over or they have really bad advisers. But they are grown men so they whould know.

Yeah. I still feel sorry for him. He had a ridiculous release clause in Porto & wanted to leave. It is fairly obvious that you can't compete for CL in Porto (anymore) & the Portugese league titles won't make a player like him happy for long. I believe Porto declined to sell for less so Zenit was one of the few options he had.

He was probably told by Zenit that they would do a lot more transfers like him in the forseeable future so he could compete for the CL title with them. Instead, other than Witsel and him no other significant player was bought from outside of Russia and they continue to not stand a chance in the CL.

I would want out, too, regardless of the money.

Except Hulk had no say over where he played. His rights where owned by a third party who dictated where he could play with the fee they charged Zenit to buy them out.

Zenit fans hunting Dortmund fans in groups.
2 Chelsea fans stabbed by Galatasaray fans.

Not a positive development. :no:

What do you mean he has no choice? this is not slavery? porto can agree all they want, if he does not agree a contract the deal is void. now there may have been pressures with the third party. But its not like he did not benefit with what i assume is a nice increase in pay

There is no Chelsea fan that were stabbed by Galatasaray fans.

Officials announced that it is wrong information.
