l still expect him to leave sooner rather then later.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Quite relaxed about that TBH. If they get that sort of money for him 12 months after almost accepting about half that then it is a good deal for me.

He is a fantastic keeper, the Spanish numero uno, but we also have the Argentinian number 1 and the soon to be Portuguese number 1 at the club.

Would still prefer him to stay but I would be more concerned if Herrara went to Barca.

Tammy Abraham agrees Newcastle move. Decent move that, would've expected to be pipped to it by someone else. Defender from Lisbon is in the works too.

What a finish, Mario Mandzukic.

Dybala is getting on my... As are a few of Juventus' players, keep an eye on him, the commentators are calling the foul right but ignoring the way he's deliberately running through the line of sight and launching himself at players for the foul, it shouldn't be any different than diving really... Juventus' are dying to get a Madrid player sent off here, whilst themselves lunging into challenges.

Actually finding it hard to remain neutral here.

The Ronaldo show. Juventus have been shocking so far in the second half. Wouldn't think they were in the final.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Disappointing as l wanted someone other then the usual 2 to win it.

what a team Real Madrid are just pity about the cheat Ramos

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Hate Madrid, not worthy champions of Europe or Spain at all.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

I remember in 2012 when Chelsea's performance was labeled embarrassing. That second half Juventus performance was up there. Literally sat back waiting for it.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Buy every top player in the world like Barcelona as well and numero uno.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Bar a handful of players. Barcelona are the leading club for home grown talent. The key midfield that was rampant in Europe of Messi, Xavi and Iniesta were produced by themselves.

Sergio Busquets
Pedro Rodriguez
Cesc Fabregas
Victor Valdes
Carlos Puyol
Gerard Pique

They literally set the standard in Europe for home grown talent and are the elite producers having won numerous European and domestic trophies with more home grown players than any other team in Europe. Manchester United coming second.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Same. It's one of these rare times I've literally seen this lad throughout his Newcastle career. Compared to Michael Essein at one point and having rejected bids of upwards £20million. Absolutely gutted. That goal against Arsenal, I have a few shirts with his name still gracing the back. At one point he really was the up and comer defensive midfielder of the league before it fizzled out, largely down to his surrounding players at the club.

Again I'm genuinely gutted. 30 years old. An absolutely outstanding Newcastle player during the majority of his time here and worshipped by fans alike. He's another that ended up getting Jonas'd really (See Jonas Gutierrez incident)
