I don't think Welbeck was trying to be clever, he just had no idea what he was doing. No composure from him, he could've easily picked a corner or knock it past the keeper.

What an absolute fucking cunt Jorge Jesus is. I hope Benfica get raped in the next leg just to see that cunt devastated.

Aye, I actually feel really bad for her as I can't see what was wrong with her race. She's really been picked on hard after that 500m final,

Figure Skating is corrupt as fuck. If Sotnikova is not blind she definitely should be ashamed to win gold. Hoping to see all the Russians in South Korea 2018

Interesting video. I was watching the pairs figure skating program and although that was the 6th consecutive time Davis and White beat Virtue and Moir, I thought the Canadians were better. That bit about the Russians and the US making a backdoor deal and what their desired outcomes would be have happened now too.

Hoping the Ladies Single isn't corrupt because if they give the gold to that 15 year old Russian over Yuna Kim, it will be outrageous.

So many ST skaters falling out of the races during this Olympics. It really displays the appalling condition of the ice because it's occurring too frequently to think they'd fall because of themselves.

You call her a joke of a skater.. and me a mong. Rich coming from you.

She went for a gap she had every right to go for, didnt make it so she righfully got done for it. Im sure she doesnt care what some idiot on an internet forum has to say about her

Wow, your stupidity is unbelievable, I should've called you a joke instead Not sure if you saw the replay many many times, but going for a "gap" that simply wasn't there is really just asking to crash into someone and get the dsq. And do you think I don't fucking know that she wouldn't see my post here? Anyone would be furious if their countrymen lost a golden race not because of herself, but a mistake made by someone else, because I'm sure you would be.

That's a part of the game, whoever is taken down due to a penalty from someone else suffers as well, but it's also an issue. It'd be better if they restart the race without the skater causing the offence.

Well I think in Christie's case she went for a gap that was not really there as the Italian basically took up that supposed "gap". It was just a try at a wall basically if you see the replay. Anyways, I'm over it now.

You're a moron. Your 'Joke of a British Skater' is a European and World Cup champion. Was a race incident, she went for a gap and it was just as much her fault as the Italians who hit her as she was passing. And there was very slight contact with the Korean in front, especially compared to some of the short track racing

Yeah, shut up you mong. She went for a gap that clearly wasn't hers to take and what do you think Fontana would do, just let her pass? It obviously doesn't work like that. Fontana hit the corners first and gained her lane, and Christie invaded it. It was Christie's mistake and with the sacrifice of Park and Fontana who clearly should've went gold-silver.

The ice conditions must be one of the worst in Winter Olympics history. So many falls resulting from ice chips in Short Track, and in some hockey games the puck wouldn't stop bobbling ffs. You'd think the ice will be much better using some of that $50 billion spent.

Absolutely ridiculous that the Canadian and Korean Relay teams didn't advance because of falls due to bad ice, they would've been gold-silver for sure. Also a bit ticked that a Korean women skater got bronze for a sure-golden race because of an absolute joke of a British skater, don't know what the hell she was thinking there.

I have to say that Altidore finally looked a bit back to form today (though he would've been even better if he had rounded Krul and tucked away a goal). That flick he had to Colback to help set up the second goal was brilliant and his hold up play was strong today. At least that is good signs for the US. I also like how Poyet is eager to keep giving him confidence. I have to say that Poyet is a very good manager and Sunderland look like they'll stay up this year off of evidence of that.

Altidore shouldn't be playing in the Premier League. Absolute joke of a striker.

Arsenal have sent Park on a loan to Watford. I know almost all Arsenal fans call him a horrendous signing, but really the reason he turned out bad was because Wenger never gave him a chance. He really never recovered from not playing during his time there, which showed in his loan move to Celta Vigo last year.

Really sad to watch his situation the last few years, because before he was Korea's best striker and he would've developed into a better one had he stayed at Lille. Hopefully a lower level of football does him good.

Moyes will apparently be at Gladbach-Bayern tonight. People will say he's watching Dante, however Granit Xhaka plays for Gladbach.

"Gladbach star Granit Xhaka has completed 1090 passes this season. No player in the Bundesliga has completed more."

I don't know much about him, I remember him at Basel though.

He likes to operate deeper, and now that Mata's here I guess it might be a good fit to have someone organize things from the back. He's better than Cleverley so I think he could start if he comes right now.

I'd be delighted if we're able to get Dante, he'd be able to teach Smalling a thing or two about playing with the ball. Highly unlikely though, he's probably luring a big contract from Bayern.

Do you mind expanding on that? It might just be me but that doesn't really make sense in relation to the Neymar deal.

Well the Neymar deal basically involved Barca paying more than the actual reported money, right? Much of it went to Neymar's family, or maybe his former club, or wherever the extra money went. So I was just wondering if the same thing happened for the cases of Villa and Fabregas, because their transfer fees were lower than expected. I thought it was because of Barca's negotiating abilities but now that it's quite certain they have done those things with the Neymar deal, it is a possibility I guess.

I'm guessing he did the same for David Villa and Fabregas. Seemed really odd at the time Barca bought Villa and paid £33M while he was probably a top 4-5 best striker in the world, and surely I thought he'd go for much more... Fabregas cost £28M and I thought he'd cost at least £35M. Alex Song too I thought they'd pay Arsenal more than what they paid because he was great for them in his last season there.

He almost missed too. It kinda looked like he mishit the ball and the only reason that didn't go over the net was because he was right in front of the goal.

Rafael looked very unlike last season, he was just unable to receive passes and control dribbles, and his crosses were atrocious.

Out of the four misses though, I can't believe Welbeck hit it miles over. He's a fucking striker ffs.

He's not awful, I'm just not sure he's a better player than Ki, who seems amore natural fit in their team as well.

My thoughts exactly. Apparently Ki and Laudrup had a little conflict near the end of last season and he wanted some assurances over his starting place for this season and Laudrup wasn't able to give it to him, hence Ki asked for a loan. I'd like him to stay at Sunderland though, Poyet is playing him advanced more and if Ki regains his ball-striking form during his Celtic days, he'd be a great player for them.

Seems a reasonable move for Chelsea though. They won't be seeing United again in the league and it wouldn't hurt them if United play well against the top 4 clubs as a result of bringing in Mata. Surely Chelsea would be happy with letting him go for £37m, his value probably won't increase after the World Cup.

What's the deal with Ji, was he sold to Augsburg or sent on loan? The BBC are saying he was sold there and will join Dortmund for free in the summer which makes no sense at all

I think Dortmund worked with Augsburg to buy Ji - a few months back Sunderland rejected something like a 4-5 mil bid from Dortmund thinking they would be able to negotiate for more money. Then Dortmund gave Augsburg money to buy Ji because Sunderland would probably not try hard to inflate his price against a small club. Sunderland obviously did not know about it and even announced it as a permanent move to Augsburg on their website. So it's a permanent move to Dortmund and he will spend the rest of the season at Augsburg and begin his 4 year contract with Dortmund in July. Will be a good move for him because he hasn't been playing for a while and he did well in Augsburg last season so he will be able to get his match fitness up in time for the WC.

I don't think Klopp brought him to replace Lewandowski for next season as announced by the media - although I'm hoping Klopp develops him like he did with Kagawa. It's a shame he wasn't used over Altidore who has been absolutely rubbish.
