A goal would have been nice, but It was nice to see Landon end his playing career with a victory and another MLS Cup. He should have been in brazil. Congratulations LD and shout out as well to Henry. I was hoping for a NY Vs LA final, but NY just fell short. I'm excited for the future of MLS.

how is leverkusen better then benfica, if the last encounters benfica always won, plus benfica is higher on clubs rankings
Leverkusen just beat Dortmund and the German league is stronger than the Portuguese league.
Monaco have better players currently than Zenit and Monaco are favourites to win the Champions League out of Group C.
Anyway my point was that Group C is interesting because both of the lower seeded teams could also easily finish the highest seeds, as also reflected by the bookmakers odds. Not that I want to argue about it, it just makes for a closer group than the rest, objectively speaking.
But yes, subjectively speaking, I don't really expect someone from Portugal to see it that way, considering Benfica are in the group and Villas-Boas manages Zenit.

All South America is pretty weak compared with Europe at the moment unfortunately. Money is king and the money is in Europe
Also, this week two major retirements in Thierry Henry and Eric Abidal. Couldn't possibly do either of them justice in a forum post, both absolutely extraordinary individuals

I read an article on the bleacher report that Sporting Kansas City has had the best offseason in MLS. I'm not sure about that, as they (we) lost Collin to Orlando City Soccer club. If Espinosa is signed though, I agree that they did best. What do you think? How do you feel your club is doing in the offseason this year?

Yep - great win, Chelski looked out of sorts (too much New Year celebrations?
) and poor old Moany Mo looked even more unhappy

New Year's Day had a few strange results. I think Spurs under Pochettino are just the fittest team in the league. The movement of Kane and co. tore Chelsea apart. Only Hazard could keep up for Chelsea.

Can't wait for the MLS season to start! So many big names are joining or re-joining the league this year. I really do think MLS will break out this year. A lot of clubs are getting new stadiums as well. All looks good going forward. Cant wait for March 8th!

Wow, Everton in the Championship next year? What do you think, Colin, Sarah???
Even as a United fan I certainly hope not. Always had a soft spot for the Toffees. They represent the good in Liverpool, unlike Liverstool itself. :icon_puke
Seriously though, it's highly unlikely. Leicester and QPR are both most likely to be relegated, with Burnley and Villa not far off. I'd like to see Burnley stay up though, Tripler and Ings are class.

Chelsea v PSG was the most pathetic show of prima donna and petulance i think i have ever seen on a football pitch
A typical Moany Mo teams performance, over the top acting and protesting, when if they had actually played the game instead they may have gotten through.
edit - i actually enjoyed watching Welling v Altrincham a couple of days before a lot more (Conference game) no gloves, no diving, and players got up without rolling around screaming in fake agony when someone took the ball off of them.

You have to remember one group of players is making hundreds of thousands each week, whilst the other is making a pittance in comparison. Any edge, ethical or not, is vital at higher levels. No saying I agree with it, but I do understand why they do it.

Like insertMoreCoins said the stakes are higher. You cannot compare nosebleeds one house/two house with the games I play.
