    Pep Guardiola leaving Barcelona. Will not take another job right away. Needs to recharge himself after 4 years of no sleep.

    ugh, that is gonna sting for Barca. Would have been nice to leave on a good note, not sure you can go lower than blowing La Liga and Champions league in a span of 3 days.

    True. BUT, he can still go out with a bang. Last match will be the Copa Del Rey final.

    Luis Suarez is a giant douche. But that was a hell of a shot.

    I don't want to sound like an arrogant prick...but that goalkeeper misplayed that shot...big time.

    That should be a relatively easy save to make. The goalkeeper was off his line, quite far, but he had plenty of time to get back and even catch the shot -- parry over the bar, at least. Proper footwork would have made that save so much easier than what the result of his poor footwork.

    I'll definitely be tuning into the Manchester Derby.

    Hoping my Red Devils can pull 6 (or stay 3) points clear. Ahhhhhh! I hate it!

    In case you havent seen. All EPL games on Survival Sunday will be shown live in the US. Though 4 of them, I think, are gonna be online/on apps (FSC 2 Go). But still awesome.

    But, but, but, but....soccer isnt growing. LMAO at people who STILL think it isnt growing in America. How many ratings, TV rights, etc do they need. This is a huge step!

    Out of school early, no studying to do. Pumped.

    Happy Derby Day!

    Lots of high level soccer lately...hopefully tonight is no exception.
  • gorocks99
    Yeah, I guess there's a little game about to start. Probably no big deal.
  • ohiobucks1
    I hope they both forfeit due to food illnesses or death :D

    My $$$$ is on Sir Alex. But boy does his side look awful. Cannot believe they are going to blow the premiership.

    Arsenal signs my favorite 26yo German striker Lukas Podolski.

    Pretty cool postgame scene in Manchester. Maybe a passing of the torch to little brother?

    Although with this season, MCFC will probably lose out.
