Joey Barton gets sent off for doing something ridiculous. And it helps City win the title. What City supporter would have imagined that five years ago. Poetic in its own way.

LOL I fucking love Joey Barton. People like him and Balotelli are part of the charm to me. Something in the vein of Artest. Lifetime ban? Get the fuck outta here. I love their bullshit.

Also, always happy to see Yaya succeed. One of my favorite players. Few people have bossed as many games as he has this year. If United had a player like him they would have likely won the title.

Edit: Love Zabaleta too. For all their big money signings he's likely their most consistent player.

Incredible day, I'm really glad I watched the City game. One of the greatest games I've ever seen in terms of drama. City were the best team this season and deserved the title. Aguero is an incredible player. He could have flopped and perhaps gotten a penalty but played it out and scored.

Is any player more relieved than Lescott? What a horrible goal to give up in that situation.

Also, Tevez punched Barton in the face first, but he was stupid for trying to get back at Tevez. His behavior after the card was indefensible.

Pretty hilarious to see United get tapped on the shoulder while they were celebrating.

Glad QPR stayed up too.

Fuck, WBA you could have made me truly happy today. Fuck it, let's go Bayern!

Today was why the EPL continues to be the greatest league in the world.

Great to see two legends like Inzaghi and Del Piero score goals in their final games for their respective clubs.

EPL ending was cool, lol at it taking two stoppage time goals against 10 men to beat a minnow tho

Madrid was historically good this year. Malaga is no joke either

to Montpellier, what a campaign, really hope they pull it off

So glad Inter is out of the Champions League, hopefully Chelsea will join them after the CL final

Pretty emotional day as a Milan fan. To lose Nesta, Gattuso, Seedorf and Inzaghi (and Zambrotta/van Bommel to a lesser extent) is huge and the end of an era. But Montolivo is on the way and Tevez will surely join him

Also, a good argument for having all games as a Saturday 3.00 kick off!

Nesta and Seedorf are two of my all time favorites. For a while there it seemed like they might play forever. Nesta's karate tackle on Messi in the Camp Nou this year is still one of the best things I've ever seen.

Seems like a real transition year for Milan. Do you think they'll lose Silva and Pato too? Any other new signings?

Yohan · Post by **Yohan** » Mon May 14, 2012 4:43 pm

Word on the street is Tottenham have offered 12M (euro's) for Vertonghen, Ajax wants 15M. Not sure where this'll end, but I'm hoping United or Arsenal will join in and a bidding war ensues. Vertonghen visited the Tottenham game sunday. 1 + 1 = ?

I don't agree. Balotelli is harmless and hilarious and a genuinely nice guy, Barton is a mean little cunt. Read up on some of the stuff he's been involved with, and what his brother and cousin did to Anthony Walker. Then he goes on Twitter and tries to reinvent himself. He's a bully and a lowlife IMO.

Nesta turned back the years against Barca but clearly the better side wound up winning in the end. I really think they keep Silva and Ibra, not sure about Pato. All seem to love the club (like most that play there), but City or Barca might make an offer that ya can't resist. I never thought Kaka or Sheva would leave Milan fwiw.

As for transfers, I know Acerbi or Ogbonna will come as Nesta's replacement, neither are ready to step into the 11; but they still have folk like Mexes, Bonera and Yepes. They signed Bakaye Traore from Nancy, but I think he's more a Flamini replacement. Hope they make a move for Ganso, but i doubt it. They have to decide if they wanna keep Maxi Lopez, Aquilani, Paloschi and others as well

Also Stephan El Shaarawy is the shit and will be leading Italy in 2016/2020, dude is beyond a wonderkid now:

Yeah, came in here to say dalglish got fired. Also, what the fuck do I do with myself now that there's no more football for a few months? I feel truly lost... I used to go to work, come home, sleep and then wake up and watch all the football i'd dvr'd and then repeat the cycle. Now there's a good chunk of my day ruined. This is sad. If anyone says watch MLS I will kick them in the balls.

Euro 2012 starts June 8th

Then 3 weeks after that ends, you'll have the Olympics which will have football at it.

Then when that's done, the new season will have started!

btw, try and grab some Brazillian or Argentinean football if you can, their league plays over the summer.

anyone else secretly egging for West Ham to lose the playoff final if only for the fiery West Ham v Blackburn matches next year?

They won't keep Kean will they? Anyway, Sam would tear him a new one I reckon.

jamrage · Post by **jamrage** » Sat May 19, 2012 1:30 am

Great final day tomorrow.

Blackpool vs. West Ham in the morning (Fox Soccer) then Bayern vs. Chelsea in the afternoon (FOX).

LET'S GO BAYERN!

can't imagine the line to replace him would be full of managers much better, nor would they be so docile and shielding.

Anyone want to do a Fantasy Euro league or just a bracket or something?
