Figure with the transfer window opening soon it was time to start a new thread.



Will Manchester City win the title again?
Can Liverpool retain Suarez? Will he be the same after knee surgery?
Will Manchester United make it back into the top 4?
Will Tottenham ever live up to expectations?
Will Mourinho last the season?

To start it off, David Luiz has signed for PSG for 50 million pounds.

Fuck, I hoped Porto could've pulled it off but Pep got everything right the better team went through. Bayern likes giving CL teams hope then absolutely smashing them.

Apparently city need all the help they can get, and the opposition defenders/ goalkeepers have been more than willing to oblige over the last couple of weeks.

Also the relegation 'race' is getting exciting. I can't see the bottom 3 changing though, my money is on Burnley, QPR and Scumderland dropping out.

Finally, shoutout to Deadspin for the most anticlimatic article/title of the weekend: http://screengrabber.deadspin.com/brad-guzan-boner-delights-manchester-city-supporters-1700165410

Didn't want to make a new soccer thread, do you guys have aftermarket insoles in your cleats? I just got a pair of mercurial vapors for 20 bucks due to some website glitch ad I figure I should get a better insoles. I think it'd just have to be really thin, like I'd have to try that superfeet carbon one or something. Just needs some more arch support.

for a long time id used superfeet in my ctrs but with the magistas iv just used the insoles that came with. superfeet didnt really fit in them very well. vapors are rather thin so the heel might feel a little odd, but its definitely worth trying out if you need that extra support.

Yeah they're really narrow. I bet the new superfeet carbon insoles are the only models that would fit. I'll have to bring them to like a running store or something where they might have insoles. maybe an rei. If not maybe I'll add layers of gorilla tape to make a little arch or something.

Well, now we know for sure.

On a day of anticlimatic and boring sporting events (time zones), Chelsea have sealed the PL title.

Also yesterday Bournemouth (stadium capacity 11,000) won the championship after Watford conceded a late goal to Leicester.

I'd quite like tonights Spurs vs City to be a drab 1-0 win for city too, but I doubt that's actually gonna happen.

Credit to them, Chelsea really never looked like slipping up. Pretty solid performance all around to win the title.

I think the real fun in this season has been the battle for 4th, 5th, and 6th.

Overall though I'd hardly consider it to be a very memorable season

Relegation battle is pretty damn close too. It's often way more exciting than the Europe/title races. 5 teams right now within a point of each other, one of them will go down. QPR and Burnley are looking like a pretty definite bottom two now though.

Fucking great we won the title, but I agree for fans of other teams this season is not a great one.

Speaking of relegation, I hope Leicester stay up they've been playing decently. Newcastle on the other hand have been abysmal. They're looking like losing 11 games in a row. I'm shocked a club of their size is scrapping in the relegation battle, but I think it would be good for them to go down so Ashley finally gets out of the club and they get a better replacement to Pardew than John Carver.

Holy fuck Lionel Messi.

I kinda feel like this angle doesn't do it justice. How can you do that to one of the best CB/GK combos in the world.

it was absolutely brilliant. i thoroughly enjoyed both semi finals, dont care for either barca or bayern but i cant help but enjoy what messi is doing out there. hoping juve can pull through to the finals and at least put up a fight for barca. I really dont think bayern can recover, barca and porto arent exactly on the same level..

love that juve pulled through. pogba was a boss in the second half. arguably the best player out there. completely random and out of the blue but anyone else trying to make euro 2016? i have family in grenoble so hopefully going to make that home base and catch a few games.

I called this. Pardew may be a cunt but he's a damn good manager if you want a consistent mid-table team. Every time Newcastle were struggling he managed to get them back, which is a pretty fantastic achievement.

Juve were awesome. I'm interested to see what happens to Pogba over summer, there's so much speculation over him. Also that might be Ancelotti's final game on the touchline, I heard he's suspended in La Liga.

I might be able to make euro 2016, it's so close to me. Depends how much money I can make this summer, because travel costs are a bitch.

Time for Real Madrid to fire their manager and spend tens of millions on an attacking player only to play him out of position.

I feel kinda bad for Bale. On one hand he's been in shit form recently. On the other hand he was Real's most threatening player today and prettym much the only one to take any threatening shots. Kinda hope he comes back to the EPL, would love him at chelsea. Some Real fans are kinda spoiled for all the booing at the Bernabeau for Real's mediocre form.

This is turning into a very anti-climatic end to the season. If it stays like it is now, Sunderland will need a point to stay up and put Hull down, keeping Newcastle up, all this with a day to go. The top four are decided and I'll be surprised if their order changes over the final two matchers. A win for Liverpool today will give them the fifth place spot, meaning the only contest left is for a few mid table positions.

At least the championship play-off finals should be good, I like both Middlesbrough and Norwich so I don't mind who wins that one.

And things didn't stay the same... Newcastle lost and are still well in the relegation race, if Hull win and Newcastle don't Newcastle go down and we all get to laugh at dingo. That said, next week Hull host Man U and Newcastle play West Ham. I still think it's fairly decided...
