Chatter from the sidelines
- Eurosport Roundtable: Who will win the Champions League? read the link while it's hot, because Yahoo constantly has broken links
- Adam Johnson charged with three offences of sexual activity with 15-year-old girl No sympathy. He has a fiancee, and everyone knows that age of consent is 16 and over. Predator
- West Ham target £7m move for Real Madrid Champions League hero Javier Hernandez
that's a good shout. Team of his level, he'd get first team minutes- but I don't know if he'd come back to the PL? He seems to enjoy Spain - Tottenham consider sharing new £400m stadium with NFL London franchise
UGH, why. - Sir Philip Carter 1927-2015 Legend. Helped to kick racism out of English football (well, it's a lot more agreeable compared to the rest of Europe anyway), one of the founders of the PL as we know it today
- Arsenal handed transfer blow as Asier Illarramendi confirms desire to stay at Real Madrid Makes sense for Illarra, I guess. He rides the bench, still gets CL and other medals, gets that money. Disappointing re: the lack of ambition because if Ancelotti stays there he's still going to come out in the last five minutes of a game or so, but if it works for him...
- Memphis Depay ‘arrives in England ahead of Manchester United transfer’ PSG want him though, throwing money at the club and everything, but everyone thinks that he'll go to Man U because the dutch connection
- Rummenigge takes a swipe at Atlético's playing style football is about joy and entertainment he says, and that's something Atleti doesn't believe in. Nevermind that there are many approaches to football but eh, it's Rummenigge- just being himself
- The Boateng brothers an article some people here thirst, ehh, I guess
- Bankrupt Parma put up for sale for £14m by Italian judge oy

OP: done. Cheers, jeers and pushback, you know the drill. I mightn't be able to do one of these tomorrow, as I'm going to an indoor rock climbing centre somewhere far away. Why do I do this to myself? D:
