[BBfanUSA]

New York City FC (Owned by Man City's Ownership group and Baseball's NY Yankees Ownership Group) have been confirmed to play their first season as a club and in the MLS in 2015 at Yankee Stadium confirmed by NY Mayor Bloomberg.

They can't convert it to a regular soccer stadium since the Yankees will be playing in the stadium as well. So the seating will look weird.

They should be moved into a soccer stadium the next season after it.

[Novo]

Chelsea are understood to have offered £10m in cash plus a player, thought to be either Juan Mata or David Luiz, in part exchange for the 27-year-old.

If it was Mata I am going to cry. If Luiz then lol at that piece of **** offer.

Moyes doing ANOTHER thing Fergie failed to do and that is get under Jose's skin. Chelsea and Jose having a meltdown after the Mata/Luiz rumour was planted from United's end

Keeps our best winger and one of our only WC player's CHECK

Has give Adan Game time CHECK
Calls that fat **** Rooney out CHECK

And once he mugs Barca and trades LardASS for Fabregas he will already be under serious contention for GOAT United manager

IN MOYES WE TRUST

Can defend better
Can actually cross a ball

LOL yes! It was 'effin ridiculous.

I wouldn't be pissed at getting Baines. Of course not. Centre of midfield needs fixing first, though.

Or maybe we could just play Buttner at left back...


Lol, I'm kidding. The guy is absolutely torrid at the back. Makes me wonder whether he was just a friend for RVP. And a few United fans have pondered this. Would like to see him reverted to his original position as a winger.

3 weeks until the season starts and still no signings :(

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez wants to hold talks with Arsenal over a potential move to the London club.

He believes Arsenal's offer of just over £40m - which has been rejected - triggered a clause in his contract that allows him to speak to suitors.

Liverpool interpret the clause differently, but Suarez will inform the Reds of his wish to meet with Arsenal.

Moyes said the substitution was pre*cautionary and that he expected the striker to be fine, but the new Manchester United manager was still subjected to stinging criticism from Raymond Verheijen, who has worked with Barcelona, Chelsea and Manchester City among others and has a reputation for being outspoken.

Writing on his Twitter account, Verheijin noted that Moyes had previously said United had ‘overtrained’ Van Persie at the start of pre-season.

He wrote: “In Sydney Moyes said: ‘We’ve overtrained Robin this week to build up his fitness’. [In Japan] he picked up muscle injury. It really makes you wonder how these prehistoric training methods can still take place at the highest level.

"The only way to solve this problem in Jurassic Park is to improve education of these dinosaur coaches, fitness clowns & scientific cowboys.

"All over the world in pre-season you see the pattern ‘overtraining-fatigue-injuries’. Always avoid accumulation of fatigue in pre-season.

"But as long as most dinosaurs are still in denial & ignore how things develop in other countries, nothing will ever change in Jurassic Park. Obviously, players like RVP should learn to protect themselves better against ‘overtraining’ & ‘punishing training’.”

Moyes admits he will be forced to rely on Ryan Giggs to guide him through the early stages of United’s Champions League campaign after admitting he has much to learn about the competition.

Moyes, who suffered a 4-2 aggregate defeat with Everton against Villarreal in the 2005-06 qualifying stages, will experience the Champions League proper for the first time as a manager when United begin their group stage fixtures in September.

Having taken charge of Everton on 26 occasions in Europe, Moyes was unable to go beyond the last 16 of the Uefa Cup or Europa League, but he takes charge of United with the club aiming to build a squad capable of winning the European Cup for a fourth time.

But while conceding that he will go into the Champions League as a relative rookie this season, Moyes believes that player-coach Giggs, who has more than 150 European appearances to his name, will be a crucial sounding board during the group stages.

“For me, the Champions League will be a thrill, but I’m going to have to learn a lot quickly,” Moyes said. “That’s where I’m looking to the likes of Ryan Giggs and a few players around me for the things which I need to be told about.

“It’s not all about the playing side of it – I’ve been in the Champions League [qualifiers], watched loads of games and managed in the Europa League – everybody has to start somewhere.”

With efforts continuing at United to lure Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas to Old Trafford, Moyes, in Osaka ahead of Friday’s friendly in Japan, remains hopeful of adding to the squad he inherited from Sir Alex Ferguson before the start of the season.

But having admitted that he must win a trophy quickly, Moyes is determined to add to the club’s history of success in Europe.

“The history of this club is immersed in Europe and I think to win one of the big European tournaments would always been seen as something special,” Moyes said.

“Winning your own domestic league is very important, but winning the Champions League has become very important, for the country and Premier League as well.

“I think the year when Manchester United and Chelsea played in the final, everyone connected to football in this country stuck their chest out.

“It was the German teams this year, in the past it’s been the Spanish teams. I genuinely think there’s a swell of pride from our country that we want the British teams to do really well.

“But I’ve got to say I’m really looking forward to it and hopefully we can do well this season and I do think it’s a much more open competition than it has been in the past.

“Even from the draw – if you don’t get a particularly good draw it can become a struggle whichever part of the world you’re playing in now.”

Lowton will play every game again this seaso and will get signed by Manchester United #nextgaryneville
Helenius will ask to leave because hes benching for benteke.
Tonev will score the goal of the season.
Aston villa will do well.

But for Christ sake WHAT IS MOYES DOING!?!?

Would of thought with all Raymond Verheijen's, 'knowledge' he'd have a job right now. Looking for a way to gain attention.

A young football fan whose wrist was broken by a Cristiano Ronaldo free-kick at Bournemouth has received a shirt signed by the player and his Real Madrid team-mates.

Didn't realise he'd broken someone's wrist.

For just saying that Aston villa will get relegated this season.
Barry Bannan is a good footballer. If you want to pass the living daylight out of a team hes your man. Hes just prone to some mistakes and over confidence. If he wipes that out, villa and Scotland would have a real key player.

[Ryan57]

Well spoken as well for his age.

He's not staying lol he's basically transfer listed

[Ryan57]

Modric has a really deep voice. Expected him to sound more like Gail Platt.

[King Gizzard]

and Westwood is x10 better and it's not even overhyping, he just is, Barry thinks he's Xavi

I know nothing of that guys situation, but managers have certain people they like to work with, depending on when they want their players to peak during the season. Being out of work is not a slight on anyones ability in football. Loads of football people take/are forced to have time off for seasons at a time.

Doesn't prove the validity of what he says in any meaningful way, but at least it offers some balance.

[King Gizzard]

Is this Raymond the one who was number 2 to Gary Speed at Wales and nearly ever journo hates him?

[Jemal]

He may go swansea. Would Suit their play.

But yea i like Westwood, tidy player.
Another good player you have is Bowery. He was fantastic vs stoke away. Really good player.

Bernand is on his way to Arsenal. :worship:

[King Gizzard]

Damiao to Zenit as well which is underwhelming

[Jemal]

Give me a break.. The guy only played yesterday, in the Brazilian cup final.
But there was rumours he will have a medical on Friday (Bernand)

[King Gizzard]

But if Bernard is their only real big transfer of note then they're still ****ed

He's outspoken, which is what most don't like about him. And it appears to be the only way he's ever garnered any sort of attention. Just doing the same now.

[Brother Leon]

Arsenal will get Suarez in the end.

[Jemal]

Bernand is a great talent from what I've seen. But missing out on your two top transfer targets will be a bitter pill for them to swallow. I mean why cant arsenal stop being over audacious and just go for a nice midfield player in Lamela or pjanic.
Just someone that maybe alot cheaper but also have great talent.

[Drew.]

Bernand is on his way to Arsenal. :worship:

Is this story true Chuck?

Bernard's next destination is be Arsenal, according to ESPN Brazil's gathered information.

He won't be going to Arsenal. If they pay more than the £50m we got for Torres, then they'll probably get him, but we both know Arsenal won't do that.

The Bernard that Arsenal will really sign.

[MTVN]

£50,000,001

Apparently when arsenal bidded 40m the extra 1 pound was for Stewart downing :laugh2:

[Drew.]

i am just waiting for Suarez to hand in this transfer request any second now, he'll then be on his way

[Chuck]

Yesterday Bernard gave everybody the impression that had been his last game. I'm watching ESPN now, and they're saying it was between Porto and Arsenal and he chose to play for a stronger league.

[Ryan57]

Suarez would make himself look an even bigger twat by joining Arsenal, after the whole accusation of the press picking on him.

yeah i heard Porto were in the mix too, looking at twitter the Brazilians seem pretty certain hes coming to Arsenal.

[Jemal]

Rumours were he was going to have a medical tommorow at the emirates. So you never know.

[Jesus.]

Some deluded people. If they sell him for less than a record, then s**t will hit the fan.

Liverpool are in the position where £50,000,001 isn't any good to them, as we couldn't attract the players at the level required to replace him. BR knows we have to be progressing or he's out next summer (judging by their previous records with managers), so he'd be better telling him he's going nowhere, as he needs him more than he needs the money.

Even if Suarez hands in the tr, can you honestly see him not giving his all in every game if he's not allowed to go?

[Jemal]

I just want us to ****ing give nani a new bloody contract.

Arsenal would you take nani?

Madrid and Arsenal are the only two teams that have had any interested in him and Madrid have come out and said they arent interested in a striker now so it looks like we'll be the only team offering to take him. I thought £40-50M would be a realistic offer and it would be accepted but if they do accept an offer from Arsenal they can say goodbye to a CL spot next season. Its clear from the game yesterday he doesn't want to be there at all and i have my worries about his attitude if he comes to us.

depends on the price

That's perfect. Just because there is only one team in for him, it doesn't mean you have to sell him for 10-15(14,999,999) m below his value. Of course he looks like he doesn't want to be there at the moment as he's posturing for a move.

They can't sell him for less than a record fee, especially to Arsenal. I'm not saying you won't get him, but I am saying you won't get him for anything less than £50m, and if you do, then some serious questions need to be asked of FSG and their true intentions for the club.

[Jemal]

Nanis my fav player for a reason. He might be inconsistent but he doesn't get enough chances. He has one bad game and gets dropped. Valencia has 10 bad games in a row and starts every game. Nani jus needs games to start him up and regain form. World class match winner on his day.

Always rips apart the top teams aswell. Especially arsenal.

with all the mess thats going on now i think Liverpool will soon be happy to see the back of him. He thinks theres some type of release clause thats been triggered that allows him to speak to Arsenal and to leave but the club say its just a clause that means they have to inform him that a bid has been made.. so if the club are in the wrong this will get very messy and could go on for some time. Id be speechless if we put in a £50m offer but i cant see it happening, i'm already shocked enough as it is with £40M.

[bbfan1991]

If Luis Suarez wants to join Arsenal, maybe he is just trying to get a bit closer to Uruguay in London but not close enough?:joker:

I can see Brendan Rodgers digging in his heels and trying to keep hold of Suarez, since he does owe Liverpool a lot of loyalty after they stuck by him over the saga.

Lionel Messi is talking crap too denying that he had any choice on who the next Barcelona Manager would be, it does not take a rocket scientist to know that Messi is obviously a very powerful person there behind the scenes too.

[Jesus.]

That works in Liverpools favour, if any legal s**t happens it will automatically miss the next 2 transfer windows, which is what Liverpool want (or BR at least). It will also lead to a massive fine for Arsenal, as they should have no idea about the clause in his contract, and when we found out about Ziege's Boro contract release clause a few years ago, we got fined for tapping up. Legal precedent is in place. That extra 1 penny on the bid could have actually cost your club a hell of a lot more.

I can't stress how important next season is for BR. He holds all the aces, but whether FSG pull that hand from him remains to be seen (I think they're a bunch of idiots personally). If he finishes in the same position as this season, that's his job gone imo. Can you see Liverpool finishing much higher without Suarez?

If you get to £50, then you have a real chance, but I think it will need to break the record for the club to justify selling him to the team most likely to drop out of the top 4 out of all of them. Although secretly I'm hoping the Moyesiah doesn't let me down.

[Brother Leon]

Suarez would make himself look an even bigger twat by joining Arsenal, after the whole accusation of the press picking on him.

It's Suarez. He pretty much can't get any worse and he hardly cares about being a twat lol
