The Foreign Football Thread 2010/11

[Profondo Rosso]

We had a foreign football thread before but it got locked.

Anyone else watching the Inter vs Juve game on ESPN? I'm hoping Juve can hold on. (Real are also on the other side for afterwards)

Also, anyone catch Barcelona finally failing to win vs Gijon yesterday. Most animated I've ever seen Pep I think. :icon_lol:

Oh, and two words: Mario Goetze. That kid is going to be a star. :icon_cool

Eto'o hits the bar...

Barca held for a draw and Madrid won at the weekend closing the gap. Still can't see past Barca for the title though.

I think from now on PR should be Italian correspondent, myself Spanish, and Hazz everything else.

Can I deal with the Ugandan relations?

I can certainly be Polish correspondent.

Also the great Ronaldo (not that greasy portugese twat) retired today. What a player!

Too bad he became greater and greater

Tell me I'm not the only person who hears his name and thinks of the Goatse man?

Very sad, his career had effectively been over for at least four years, with the terrible injuries he had to his knees taking their toll. Interested to read that his weight problems had been cause by a dodgy thyroid rather than the celeb lifestyle everyone accused him of.

Probably best remembered for the 2002 WC, and that one year at Barce when he was simply amazing.

Call me a cyinc but I bet the latter was still a factor.

That's stretching it a bit...

Bundesliga before Serie A for me. Though I enjoy both, I'm a Dortmund man.
