The next lottery will be on March 20th, at least for RM, so I assume a week after that or come April.

schalke today gave me hope but I bet we score 2 goals and miss an open net in 90'th min loool

just need to create the same number of opportunities we did the first game and not miss 5-6 easy chances again. Crossing my fingers.

This may be true, haha, probably is to some degree. But most NBA players are pretty well spoken, and Dirk isn't exactly a master of the language.

NHL and NFL players sound like complete morons most of the time.


It's true in many countries. Foreigners who are fluent in the local language make more of an effort to use proper grammar.

Very True. I don't watch much soccer, and don't really know who many of the players or strategies are, but for some reason I watched the whole game. Her's my observations;

Gareth Bale had the "Deer in the Headlights" look.

The Real Madrid defense was stupidly bad.

Shalke should'be scored at least 5 goals. That one off the errant pass was thisclose to going in.

That Sane guy looked like a stud.

Is whistling the European/Spanish version of booing?

Gareth Bale has some stupid looking hair.

Cristiano Ronaldo was visibly faster and better than anyone else. I wonder why Real Madrid didn't try to get him the ball more often.

I enjoyed watching the teams run down the field once they got the ball on a fastbreak instead of playing conservatively. It was entertaining.

The announcer were acting like this was a March Madness upset.

What do you think about my opinions? They're probably really stupid.

Listen up here, newbie. You get one more dig at Bale before Baphomet and i briefly leave his altar to come at you guns blazing.

Welcome to the board. :D

That Sane dude had me doing double takes as well.

To be fair though, I've also taken digs at Bale's ridiculous british attempt at a continental style barnet, but only out of wanting the best for him. Like our baby bird has flown the nest and is making questionable life choices. :cry:

Lets not beat around the bush here Bale has sucked ass. He should probably be benched until he gets his head straight. Also Casillas is back to sucking as usual.

Aboubakar


How has he looked for you guys? Gladbach were linked to him last summer and he seemed an interesting option. Looked to have a good nose for goal with great speed, kinda like Aubameyang.

I don't judge him based on the statistics even though they look good pretty good. Given the fact that he plays at Bundesliga as a #10, obviously his stats are a bit overrated. However, Calhanoglu is definitely a good player probably better fit for RM than James Rodriguez if that's the reason you are asking for. For our national team, he was the left winger of 4-2-3-1 and he played some great football for us. So if Ronaldo or Bale leaves, he might be a great option to pick up for RM.
