Rather missing the point though. An incident like this only hurts anti-doping, and doesn't help it.


Can somebody explain me why Sakho need to take a fat-burner pill??? :roll:

You'd be kidding yourself if you think footballers don't take all sorts of things. Sakho says he checked and it wasn't on the banned list (which, as it has now been proven, it wasn't and should not be), and that's good enough. Every advantage helps when you're a sportsman.

He just come back not too long before the test from a knee injury, right? Would have made it difficult to exercise and keep weight off. Fat burner pill would have helped. If it wasn't on the banned list goforit

So, Ibrahimovic scores a bicycle kick 4 minutes into his first game for Man U (v Galatasaray), who here is surprised?

It was always going to happen. Slightly surprised our squad hasn't been completely gutted yet. And 23m is a very good figure.

And I am still bewildered by Aguero's price, as ever. He's 13.0, Ibra's 11.5, Kane's 11.0.

Anyone remember the Iraizoz goal that was declined for no good reason a few years ago? That was a beauty.
I mean, as far as a goalkeeper's goal goes.

Just thought, If when matchday 1 of the Champions League group stage rocks around and Eric "Debut King" Dier scores I'll just about flip my shit. Goal on his Spurs*, England*, and CL debuts? As a defender/DM? Extra points if he scores with his foot.

Yeah, Son is the heart of the team, and we don't want his career interrupted, since we need to get him prepared not just for Rio, but also Russia in 2018.

I'm so glad Nigeria beat Japan 5-4. Both are weak teams, I believe.
