Villarreal will not beat Fulham.

And certainly Derby County, Middlesbrough and Swansea will finish them off.

A team that struggled against Glasgow Rangers.

You are dreaming wake up.

Seria B is on the level of English League one.

yeah was really disgusted with what they did to darren moore. watched a video on twitter of a sports radio presenter doing a breakdown of moore's time at the helm of west brom compared to tony pulis and alan pardew no surprises he out performed two of them but at the first sign of a run of bad results they axed really terrible but sadly i'm not surprised

Welcome to Europe.

If you cannot take the heat don't go in the kitchen.

Leonardo Bonucci is a RACIST BIGOT, it's not what they say in public that matters it's what they think and do.

Out of the depths of the heart the mouth � speaks.

Because they don't call you names doesn't mean they aren't racist.

Darren Moore former manager of West Bromwich was sacked with the club in fourth position in the Championship. And his white inexperienced unqualified assistant given the job, what do you think is going on.

In England children of West African origin have a higher educational achievement and grading than white middle to upper class children.

At university level our children are top of the scale at all levels as soon as they leave and assessment is no longer substantive and objective. They drop to the bottom and with thier first class degrees are unable to secure employment commensurate with thier qualifications.

After a few years the white guys at the bottom of the class are now your bosses.


This behaviour transcends football it's just that in football people can express verbally what they think and believe on the terraces.

using the rangers game is a bad example. it's like saying because real madrid were knocked out by ajax in the UCL then the dutch league is better than la liga

komekn:


Fulham and the English championship are far better than the Scottish premier league. Which like Seria A and La Liga is essentially a 1or 2 club league.

Rangers will not survive in the Championship they would be in league one.

Over two legs Villareal struggled with Rangers.

I know players who struggled in non league and found it easy to walk into Seria C.

Seria B is FAR BEHIND the championship financially speaking. It's more on the level of League one.

Players follow the £££ not just the style of play. And the more money the mire quality you can attract to suit the rigours and demands if your particular league.

A class example Sadiq Umar TOTAL and COMPLETE quintessential " Wasteman " in Glasgow Rangers but now according to many here " balling " in Perugia.

I rest my case.

Sergio Ramos scores own goals but you can't compare him to Smalling or Jones

Our current defenders are not the best in the world but they brought a lot of calm to our defense

Shittu has passion and drive but he was below average, he would not make any EPL team at all

if the 1994 team was so good why didn't them win the world

sometimes we just say things as if the rest of us never watched this
guys play....... you can say they are quite much better and cohesive

Aghawonder is miles ahead of Ighalo... i doubt Ighalo can score that goal against Sweden in 2002 world cup.
