Toni Kroos said he's going to Real Madrid, so Di Maria is probably leaving for PSG.

Guardiola ruined Bayern. How the fuck do you prefer Thiago Alcantara over Toni Kroos?

 

[Night Prowler]

He's a complete dipshit with his tactics of let's-play-everyone-out-of-position. Though in this case it's possible that Kroos would've left for Real even if he played more under Guardiola.

Speaking of Real... Monaco is rumoured to have accepted 70 million (dunno the currency) + Casemiro for James Rodriguez. Di Maria will leave for PSG, Khedira for Arsenal. Poor Isco, he won't get any playing time with Kroos and James being his competition.

 

[The Flash]

Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, James Rodriguez, Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema. Fucking hell.

Rich got richer this season. Real, Barcelona, Bayern and PSG all look like destructive powerhouses. Real has the best coach out of those 4, which gives them the edge.

 

[Night Prowler]

Not expecting much from Bayern unless Guardiola changes his arrogant Midgetlona tactics. Well, in Europe, in Germany they will probably win it all.

I'd add Chelsea to that list too.

Courtois
Azpi Ivanovic Terry Filipe
Fabregas Matic
Schürrle Oscar Hazard
Costa

That's an awesome cake. I see Suarez couldn't wait for his piece.

Antonio Conte resigns as Juventus coach!

Lots of rumours about Allegri replacing him. It's what dreams are made of. I'll cry tears of joy when he starts running them into the ground

 

[Ariana]

No no no no no no no!

 

[Night Prowler]

I'm sorry, Ariana.

Spoiler

I'm not sorry, Juventus

This definitely means Vidal and/or Pogba are leaving. Conte said he'll leave if he can't keep his best players.

 

[Ariana]

They won't hire Allegri. They've never been that dumb when it comes to coaches.

 

[Night Prowler]

Allegri has one advantage over any other coach: he will never complain about the transfer policy; doesn't have the balls to stop the management from selling his best players and is satisfied with whatever fodder they buy for him. That's why he was Milan's coach for so long

 

[The Flash]

Mancini could be a candidate as well.

 

[Black Wizard]

Will Conte be the new Italy manager?

 

[Night Prowler]

Probably.

Allegri really is the favorite lololololol

That'd be like Moyes taking over Liverpool.

But seriously, only Allegri can fuck up Juve so much that they don't win the title. They still have the best team in Italy.

That Real attacking force is terrifying. It honestly seems they've put together a Barbarians esque team, but in football.

Starting to make plans for the Premier League Fantasy Football. I've done a bit of scouting on the Championship sides coming up, and I've found a few decent prospects from Burnley and a guy from QPR.

Chelsea have signed a Brazilian defender. Fortunately for them Filipe Luis was not part of the World Cup squad.

Chelsea have signed a Brazilian defender. Fortunately for them Filipe Luis was not part of the World Cup squad.

So they are replacing David Luiz with one who is even worse?

 

[The Flash]

Filipe Luis was robbed. He had a significantly better season than Marcelo and Maxwell.

 

[The Flash]
