SirBalon Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 The first pictures of Real Sociedad's New Anoeta Stadium have been released and it looks a beauty to be honest, although very similar to The Emirates. Construction starts in the summer and should be ready for the 2019/2020 season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do all cules automatically label every barcelona World class? P.S. bailly + Umtiti would be a much effective duo than pique + Umtiti. Pique will go down as one of the worst set piece defenders to play in Spain. How can someone be so awful during corners or free-kick and start for Barcelona? I know why... Cause he is the perfect poster boy for the bullshit Catalonia freedom movement, a movement in which FCB plays a big role. Barcelona conceded 4 set piece goals last season. How many did Man Utd concede? Another thing... Did you see the goal Argentina scored against Spain? Have a look at that again and have a laugh on me. I’m not even charging you for this. By the way... Spain have conceded 2 corner goals since Lopetegui took over as coach. One was against Argentina and the other one Piqué didn’t play in.

Guest Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) Pique is such a seasonally inconsistent defender. Some seasons he's fantastic, others he's an open door, but to call him one of the worst set piece defenders to play in Spain is absolutely laughable. Also, how can you be awful at defending free kicks? That's on the keeper, not the defender. Usually its him who organizes the wall and obviously has to make the save too. Edit: If its long range free kicks, that's a different story Edited March 30, 2018 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 To add to the above, I wanted to say that the best Pique that I've seen was 2015 in Suarez' first season. He was unpassable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirBalon Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Ex Celta and Real Sociedad coach has today been appointed the new head coach of Girona. Machí moved to Sevilla and this has paved the way for Eusebio Sacristán to arrive to the Catalan club that had such a great first ever campaign in La Liga last season.

SirBalon Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Big signing for Villarreal who use their right to buy cheap Gerard Moreno from Espanyol. When Moreno moved to Esoanyol there was a clause that Villarreal would always have forst option to buy at €12m. Don’t Espanyol feel atupid now considering the interest Gerard has lifeted throughout Europe this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's always had the talent. I suppose moving to Espanyol helped him progress though and 12 million is nothing today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eco Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 So, similar to what I'm doing in Ligue 1, I'm picking a Spanish side to follow and could use some help. First off, it can't be one of the following teams: Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, or Barcelona Secondly, I would much prefer them to speak Spanish, not Catalan. Part of my reasoning for this is that I'm learning Spanish and this might be able to help even if just a little. I'm not sure which clubs do, and don't speak Spanish other than Barcelona and Valencia. Any help would be great appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirBalon Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 32 minutes ago, Eco said: I want a club that doesn't speak Catalan I’ll name only a number of the clubs from selected regions of official languages. The four main languages in Spain; 1. Castilian (Spanish spoken in all of Spain) All clubs communicate in Castilian (Spanish) in Spain. 2. Basque (Basque region) Athletic Bilbao, Real Sociedad, Eibar, Osasuna (even though they’re not in the Basque region and in Navarra), Alavés, Real Unión de Irún, Arenas Club, Sestao SC. 3. Catalan (Catalonia) FC Barcelona, RCD Espanyol, Sabadell, Girona, Badalona, Cornellà, Gimnastic de Tarragona, L’Hospitalet, Lleida, Reus, Sant Andreu. 4. Galician (Galicia) Deportivo La Coruña, Celta Vigo, Ourense, CD Lugo, Pontevedra CF, Racing Ferrol, RCD Fabril, SD Compostela. Then you have other regions with their own dialects that I won’t go into because in general Castilian is spoken there. But in the region of Valencia they speak a dialect of Catalan called Valencià so you can add clubs like Valencia CF, Levante, Villarreal and Elche to the list above. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
