    Btw Cucs: we had this formation thing early in the summer here. It was very comedic at the time, but we failed to expand on it properly, and soon after, we just kept talking about the Mercato.

    Listen I hate Cicinho as much as anyone after that OG that cost me money. But I don’t think we need to unload him just yet. Unless, he wishes to leave then I have no problem to get ride of him.

    Taddei I would never get ride of. He may lack skill but he never lacks heart or work ethic.

    let me preface this by saying that i know it is a personal problem. here goes: i really want to buy a pair of the game shorts, but i’m having trouble justifying paying $60 for shorts.

    im scared if i wait til they are on sale all that will be left is xxxl

    Cucs: for the most part, I was speaking in jest about those Brazilians. But, that doesn’t mean that a suitable replacement for them is NOT out of the question.

    Menez, in an ideal situation, would start for our team and Taddei should come of the bench. Likewise, we should have Cicinho come off the bench because the MF plays well at times, but his pretty weak defensively. Ideally, it would be so much better to start someone else over him as well….

    Sadly, that store doesnt deliver outside of Europe.

    I just played a game of FIFA 09 w/ the French settings on by accident….it was awesome, that announcer gets way more excited

    The Gigastore is the spot! But yeah, it becomes expensive when you turn the Euro’s into dollars. And yes, the shorts as well as jerseys, ventually run out. If you have the money, shoot, get them…….

    Im still waiting for worldsoccershop to come out with both the shorts and the L/S jerseys, but who knows if they will!

    Yeah, I sent Worldsoccershop an email about a month ago and never got a response…..fuckers!……I should do the same again. Maybe once they start seeing customer interest, they will get them for sale.

    Yeah, I saw your post about the leaky defense. Me and Cucs are Villarreal fans!

    I just never thought about going to the VR blog to post or anything. I was just curious, went there, and saw your name.

    Btw, I would LOVE to get one of those Yellow Submarine L/S jerseys. Sic!!!

    If Worldsoccershop can get the short and L/S jerseys, its on!

    The main reason I like the new jerseys, as opposed to the ones from last year, are the back-of-the-neck lift, which covers the back neck from the sun, etc. In addition, it looks pretty sweet. I can’t wait for them…….the shorts are fly…..

    yeah, fantasy team concerns: got capdevila and their goalie diego lopez(?)

    pretty neutral when it comes to them. i dvred their game against atletico because i thought it was going to be goals galore. i passed out when i tried to watch it though. another time…

    I think if Cicinho is going to play we need Taddei in to cover his ass. If Menez is going to play in Taddei spot we need a more defensive RB in.

    Wouldn’t you think that that is why Panucci should be put as a RB. He does superb defensive work. Then you could have Menez pushing forward and running back to assist defensively, if needed. menez has the speed and the youth to do the work.

    If at any time panucci needs the rest, then you could have cicinho move in with the fresh legs.

    It sounds great to also have our leading scorer up with the young guy.

    Hell oh yeah man. That would excite me tremendously to see.

    Panucci—Juan—-Mexes—-Tonneto

    As Cassetti gets healthier, he can come in and sub for Tonetto.

    What kind of Midefield should we have, since Pizza is suspended and BubbleBoy is still out for this Sunday’s game, right?

    IMO Mexes makes us so much stronger.
    And him with a healthy Juan are excellent together.
