THE WOLF'S DEN - Tana dei Lupi II

Sure- I'm not sure there's actually that much difference between the Iniesta position and the Xavi position, when they're both in there alongside Buckets. The difference is more in terms of how they interpret the role - so that Iniesta runs with the ball a little more while Xavi stitches things together in a slightly different way. That's a pretty fine distinction, though - so, for instance, were DDR in the Buckets role he wouldn't play it in quite the same way (because DDR looks to make more more incisive passes and would continue to do that, I think, however hard one tried to coach it out of him).

Sure. How else do you think I managed to come up with it?

I've no idea what that means, Davit, but I'll cut and paste it over on theoffside and hope it draws some good responses.

[DavidP]

ah, my bad. thought you were a genius there for a second.

[maro]

Lies. You've known me for a genius for a while now.

[DavidP]

only in terms of football knowledge. and maybe georgian literature. and wikipedia-ing.

quoting shehan "without his football knowledge, maro would be like a woman with no tits"

[maro]

What? An arse and a tight pussy? That's harsh.

[DavidP]

i was going to say it does raise the question of the vagina, but a titless vagina is worthless.

[DavidP]

you do have a good vagina though (both in and out of this context)

I thought that interview was an accomplished performance in sustained hot-airing, Goffredo - all sound, a little fury, and signifying pretty much nothing.

[maro]

lol. I just thought reading between the lines he said - DDR and Pastore? No comment. Vooch? He might go and he might not. Menez? The same. Borriello - well, he's definitely not on the market which means if an offer for him comes in we'll certainly consider it (of course!). Valdes and Stekelenburg? Yeah, sure, maybe - soon something will happen, but nothing really yet.

Did you think, reading between the lines, that there was really anything concretely informative in there, though? I also only read the report, but it felt to me that he was just making noise to keep the media and the fans kind of happy.
