The Soccer Thread (Version 13) — Winter World Cup Edition

Title race in the EPL is over.

 

As usual the Arsenal can be relied on for a solid No. 2.

 

On the other hand, brilliant result for Brighton. Seagulls still have a puncher's chance at Europe with 4 matches left (as well as at least 1 match in hand against fifth-place Liverpool and joint-third MUFC and Toon)
.

 

USMNT notched a win today.

 

That’s huge. I still have mixed feelings about players who have no real connection with the US (better than Yunus, but Balogun still hasn’t lived here since he was 2) but we will take the talented player.

 

The seamy side of sudden fame and fortune in the Football League.

Wrexham release 11 players after winning promotion to League Two and Las Vegas trip

 

Here I go again toiling in my sports laboratory developing a hypothesis ... but Wrexham have hit on the sugar fix du jour.

Sign about a half-dozen ex-EPL'ers who are washed-up but still have enough game for the National League. Give 'em a goose and see what happens. Maybe the Wrambling Wrex stay up, and maybe they don't. But they're up.

 

I’m sure this won’t be the last high profile soccer player caught in this.

 

Looks like City finally spent enough unlimited petrobucks to buy them the one thing they couldn't win.

 

The ownership are reprehensible cheats, but they are a beautiful team to watch play.

 

Fuck around with English supporters and find out part 35,612. Dude at the top of the stairs fights like Tyson Fury, he ain't no stranger to this kind of thing, Lands a textbook right uppercut at 16 seconds or so.
