    You can't go wrong with either.

    Sanchez has more individual brilliance but Aguero is more clinical.

    We're not even at full health yet. Robben will be back soon.

    Excellent win, Dortmund is not elite anymore. Boateng's passes were awesome.

    Not sure if Klopp is ready to take over right now. He always said he's taking the whole year off.

    Also, Ribery and Badstuber still injured. For me, the perfect interior defense is still Badstuber/Boateng.

    I don't expect top 4 this season since Rodgers screwed LFC over royally with his transfer choices. His sacking should have been a few months ago, but at least he's gone now. Do I trust FSG to sign the right manager? Nope. I'm a little nervous. I feel like they still don't fully understand soccer. They need to let go of the rest of management in addition to Rodgers.

    Moneyball doesn't work in soccer. I hope they Realize that.

    Brendao is out.
    Klopp or Ancelotti or I'm out this season.

    And then hopefully a billionaire Saudi Arabian prince buys the team and gives us a chance to get some world class players lmfao.

    Jontro had been bad in our fantasy league, not sure he's ready. Should coach Malaysian league to learn what it takes to win and then go to the British Commonwealth Division.

    I actually had a conversation about that with Paul DePodesta the other day. Really nice guy. I think it works to an extent in soccer as well.

    It's not my fault. It's the ref's fault for not being brave enough to make the right calls. Mourinho agrees.

    How did you get to meet Paul DePodesta? And do share on what you guys talked about. To me it wouldn't last because even if you were able to build a trophy-winning team, which would take at least 3-5 seasons to construct, the very next season all your players would be picked off one-by-one by bigger clubs in Spain and/or City/Chelsea. It wouldn't last.

    A few days late but geez I guess no Messi no party... We are such a mediocre team without him. And people still say Messi is a nobody w/o Xavi/Iniesta.
