Is Riquelme retiring or going somewhere else?

I don't know if there's much truth in it. There's just been a lot of head butting between Riquelme and Falcioni. When they didn't win the Clausura, fingers were always going to be pointed.

Sosa is supposed to be better than Orion at stopping penalties. Maybe it was a lucky injury.

edit:I'm like a day late. On topic: Riquelme is a oval office and is trying to be a player-manager going over Falcioni.

The stream I'm watching had a compilation the best goals of the Blue Square Premiere League at halftime. It was great, they basically were fluky deflections that caught the keeper off guard.

Well, the only consolation I can take from this is that Corinthians are still in 19th. 4 points from 6 games for the Champions of South America.

Tanque Silva was the worst player I've seen in a final. To think people were saying he should be called up for Uruguay (and some idiots said Argentina should call him).

He's good but not the right player for Boca, his style is more for a small team that plays defensive with a lonely striker. Or maybe in a team where he plays the bench warmer role.

Watched the game and while it was kinda boring at times it was a nice game. So addition to the Brazilian league what other south american leagues are good to watch while the euro's ones are in offseason mode?

No one else is playing. Brazil never stops but the rest have their break at the same time than in Europe. I think Argentina still has the Copa Argentina final to play but that's it, I believe.

Maybe you can watch some MLS?

Corinthians winning this trophy means that Milan still hold the title of "Club with the most trophies, including a bunch of poo poo and worthless ones" so that kind of makes me happy.

You mean international, right? Because Rangers or like, some Northern Irish team has a billion league titles

edit: I mean continental but I don't know if this makes any sense still

Im not even sure what it means, to be honest. Berlusconi came up with it a few seasons ago and it's plastered all over everything Milan puts out now.

Just start watching Grêmio games and join the interminable suffering that has been supporting this goddamn club in the 00s.

I do follow the MLS and it's really good these days which only going to be better over time. I love going to my Fire home games as a season ticket holder. Anyway I guess it's just MLS and Brazilian for me.

no matter how many competitions corinthians wins, I'm quite certain we'll never attain the level of smugness that são paulo supporters had when muricy was at the helm (they managed to make a corinthians supporter hate them more than palmeiras supporters, which I would have never considered possible)

also, I only really noticed it this year but yeah holy gently caress the supporters of literally every other team in brazil seem to have it out for us

it is the natural way of things for other teams from são paulo to be against corinthians, and for rio teams due to the old rio/são paulo rivalry, and I guess inter fans could be rankled about that business in 2005, but why would a grêmio fan care? why would a cruzeiro fan?

Because people always hate the favorites? Or, more importantly, because people will always hate the "establishment" teams? When Flamengo is relevant, they tend to get the same type of hate.

Yeah, just read in the news about him leaving. I thought it was mainly paper talk earlier in the season about his confrontations with the club, but the signs were all there. He did look pretty lackluster and unmotivated in SP. Before he went back to Boca, he was constantly linked with a retirement tour in the MLS. Fully expect those rumors to come back.

This is true. To compound on what joepinetree said, I think the majority of fans outside of Rio/Sao always roll their eyes a bit when a Rio/Sao team wins.
