Well done fitty on completing the exam and good luck to Kick, though might I say that 83% seems oddly specific as a target. Laughing

Sydney Uni's first class honours is 83% Laughing

Adelaide uni's first class is 80%, like any normal uni.

That's because USyd isn't just any normal uni :coffee:

that one's not nearly as absurd as the other ones though. Basically it says Reus is available to leave with a 25m € release clause in summer (common knowledge), and Mourinho would like to get him.
Nothing controversial or surprising about that. Pretty sure every other top club and half-top club in Europe is thinking the same with that price lol.

Pls make it happen mou, pls

by Kick Wed Nov 19, 2014 10:34 pm

I suppose Reus for 20m would be good.

Courtois
Ivanovic Cahill Terry Azpilicueta
Fabregas Matic
Reus Oscar Hazard
Costa

Remy
Schurrle Willian Salah
Ramires Mikel
Luis Zouma Christensen Ake
Cech

Not bad.

Jose Mourinho has ordered his scouts to keep tabs on Tyrone Mings as a potential long-term replacement for John Terry at Chelsea, the 21-year-old Ipswich defender being one of the hottest properties in English football

I thought Cahill was his replacement? Laughing

by Shed Thu Nov 20, 2014 12:39 am

Speaking of whom, I just figured out yesterday Gaz will be 29 next month Shocked

by Kick Thu Nov 20, 2014 12:40 am

Yeah, he isn't young.

by Shed Thu Nov 20, 2014 12:41 am

Evidently. Why was I under the impression he was like 26?? confused

by Kick Thu Nov 20, 2014 12:43 am

No idea

by Shed Thu Nov 20, 2014 12:44 am

by Kick Thu Nov 20, 2014 12:48 am

He's got 3-4 good years left in him, anyway.

Zouma will hopefully be ready by then, perhaps even a startner next to him. So I imagine JT will be replaced by Zouma, then we just had to replace Cahill (Looking at you two, Kalas and Christensen).

I was going to say, if no one steps up, Jose will just bring in Varane.

Fixed.

by Blue Thu Nov 20, 2014 3:59 am

I don't see how we can land Varane. I understand Pepe and Ramos are still favored over him, but i don't think he wants to leave Madrid even though he can be a starter at Chelsea.

by fatman123 Thu Nov 20, 2014 4:50 am

Untill about a month ago I thought Cahill was only a few years older then Phil Jones, who turns 23 in Feb

by Shed Thu Nov 20, 2014 5:11 am

So we were on the same page :coffee:

Looks like Mars is the odd man out :coffee:

by Kick Thu Nov 20, 2014 7:43 am

FFS you guys are so wrong, we signed him when he was like 26 rofl

by Shed Thu Nov 20, 2014 8:10 am

Upset because you can't keep up Kickster? :coffee:

by Kick Thu Nov 20, 2014 8:11 am

I can't keep up? rofl

Says the guy who thought he was much younger? Laughing
