Only Falcao can do that to you!

*duck and run*

Haha!

I honestly don't have a dog in this "fight". I'm a United fan and I want what's best for my club. I was thrilled when they took Falcao on loan and hoped the move would be a success, but that looks not to be the case at present. Whether it's down to lingering effects from the knee surgery, or LvG holding some personal vendetta against the man, I couldn't really say.

If there's a United striker I'm truly glad isn't playing right now, it's Van Persie. He's been in very poor form most of this season.
 
Arsenal were up for it today.

Skrtel's red proving costly already.

Sterling is not a CF.

Moreno a liability.

'Pool's top 4 ambition hanging by the thread.
 
James already scored a goal today since coming back from injury and CR7 made his 300th milestone goal today with real madrid
 
Away from the EPL, Primera Division, Serie A life is hard.

FC Twente 2010 champions, today on the brink of bankruptcy.

There is a gap of € 8,000,000 in the finances.

The KNVB have deducted 6 pts, and can deduct more next month.

The club have already planned to sell most of the first squad, but today it was announced that 18 back room staff were being laid off.

Chelsea may be a Bridge too far, but we'll see next weekend. They're not playing too well lately and scraped a few fortunate wins over the past few weeks. United are looking pretty good. Hopefully Carrick's injury is not serious.

After the first 10 minutes, City looked woeful. Yaya was invisible (Played too far back? Just not very interested anymore?), and Silva was contained pretty effectively. Their center halves were even worse. How much did they spend on Mangela again? Yikes.

Good win for United. Touré and Clichy the weakest link for City.

Don't see United getting past Chelsea though. They may not be playing well but still know how to defend, and are at home. Unlikely that Fellaini will bully Matic, Ivanovic and Terry.

Likely end in a draw. But we shall see.
 
Seems like Klopp is going to leave Dortmund.

Good I guess, did wore off a bit over the last two seasons. Good luck to him!

Thomas Tuchel most probably his successor. Will be interesting.

the last two seasons? Would say only this season. Imho (after the inuries) the downfall really started with Immobile. But I agree, I guess Klopp started to have no new ideas of what to do in this situation. Though, then again, it would have been interesting to see, if Dortmund maybe after another season makes it up to the top again WITH Klopp.

Interesting Dortmund's shares went down and stablized at a loss of -4,6% to the day before! The first time that firing employees has made shares of a company fall. :D

From the press it seems that the heads at Dortmund would actually have held him for longer and the impression seems to be it was really only Klopp's decision and I believe him, that he really means it, that he does it for the benefit of the club. The press conference appeared like funeral. Also nice how they all interact with each others.

On Tuchel, though I favour Dortmund, I would have found HSV the more interesting experiment. (Also, I don't think that Labbadia will get HSV out of the bad phase.)

On Bayern loosing today against Porto, I bet Bayern will get away with it in the second leg, just like they always have too much luck, when they are very close to failing.

Today I heard a joke: "now that HSV has Labbadia and Dortmund will get Tuchel, Bayern can get Klopp+Reus and the plan is perfect." Another one "I bet, now that HSV knows Tuchel will go to Dortmund, they will fire Labbadia after 8h and get Klopp." :)

Btw. in the Talk Show Markus Lanz the "BILD"-paper guy said, he can confirm that the contract with Tuchel is fix, but Tuchel only has to sign it. Someone than commented that Tuchel is currently collecting all those fix contracts without signing. :)

well others i have heard were "Now that HS has signed Labbadia, the VFB is finally safe from relegation"

and of course "the HSV can still fire labbadia after the 32. game and hire Huub Stevens from Stuttgart"


on a more serious note i think Labbadia might not be a bad choice at all: on the short term he always was succesful at getting good performances out of below average players. At Stuttgart, once he left, the team with the very same players played much, much worse.
Also he is very keen on proving himself again on the big stage and it sure takes guts to choose the HSV in the current position.
