crashcarson15 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 So is Neymar headed to United eventually? I thought I read something a few days ago.Not happening. The fee for him would be close to $400 milion and that's before a likely improved contract. Apparently the go to plan for players in La Liga is call Manchester united and wait for their team to hand them more money. Or get stolen away by Chelsea. Chicharito will most likely join Bayer Leverkusen tomorrow. I like their team so much.Announced as completed. Sorry to see him go but it was obvious he didn't want to be at Old Trafford based on his last few appearances. The slip aside, he looked dreadful. Bundesliga is getting more and more competitive so he and Janazuj at Dortmund could help those teams big time. Somehow they have not been cap tied so they can play in Champions League and Europa League this year. Cap tying no longer occurs during the qualifying rounds.

Berlin Wall Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I'm amused about the Dutch screwing up the Euro 16 qualification. I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAD! Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Wow! Iceland qualifies for Euro 2016. So there is something other than goal celebrations in Iceland... I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanC Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Pleased for Rooney equalling Bobby Charlton's goalscoring record and in exactly the same amount of matches.Wales only need a point from one of their last two matches to qualify.The island nation of Iceland is the smallest to qualify for a Euros, with an estimated population of just 317,000.As stated before about the Dutch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap doffed to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marble21 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Wales only need a point from one of their last two matches to qualify....with their final fixture being at home to Andorra. I think we can safely assume that they've qualified. UBI FIDES IBI LUX ET ROBUR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportstar1212 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 The population of my city is more than twice that of Iceland. Just further puts things into perspective. With what we've seen from them, Wales and Northern Ireland, and the Dutch being in meltdown mode, it's been one hell of a qualifiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadragon76 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Yeah... worst possible time for the Dutch to screw things up considering that their final group game is against a team they're chasing in the Czechs. They can't afford anything other then wins or else they're done.Meanwhile: Can someone please tell Poland to let off the gas? Poor little Gibraltar doesn't need to be beaten this badly!

IanC Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Northern Ireland are also very nearly there. Needing just two points from their last two games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcake Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 Interesting how Emre Can has been a, you know, not disaster at right back for Germany. The Czech republic have also qualified.Despite strongly disliking Real Madrid, I am rooting hard for Bale and Wales to make it. I think this tournament will be remembered as the tournament of the smaller nations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They guy might not lose you a game, but I haven't seen anything to make me think he'll win you one. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sc49erfan15 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 USA-Brazil debacle aside, I've really been enjoying keeping up with all these qualifying tournaments.AFC is the best. I get a kick out of matchups like Thailand-Iraq, Philippines-Uzbekistan, Japan-Afghanistan, Australia-Tajikistan, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
