Dude, Paul Dummett scored. I'm posting this from an underground bunker full of bottled water, tins of baked beans and 200 copies of 'Razzle'.

It's even worse. Paul Dummett scored a fucking cracker.

He's not a DM.

Actually, he is. Check out WhoScored, he played all of his matches this season as a MC/DMC.

Bournemouth signed Lewis Grabban on a three-and-a-half year deal for 7M

I'm kinda happy with Charlotte going foward. I mean we are 17-20 and that's bad in the current landscape of the eastern conference but we'll have $25M in free cap space, Batum not being a worry because of his bird rights. Also factoring the MKG injury that is a huge blow to our starting lineup, and Big Al being completely useless, 16/17 can be really good.

I've heard he started as a striker and can play defensive midfield, so sounds like the kind of nebulous utility player we tend to go for. Yay.

He started his career as a striker/winger, later transitioned into only being a winger, and this season played all of his games as a defensive midfielder. Not really tall and imposing as most people have been asking, but has a lot of offensive projection, neat passer and actually tackles people.

The club has also made a 10M bid for Swansea's Jonjo Shelvey.

Several newspapers in Brazil and Italy have been reporting that Liverpool and Corinthians have agreed a 15M euros fee for Alexandre Pato.

Hoyer is awful.

Afobe is having a medical tomorrow ahead of this Bournemouth move. 10M is his price.

Newcastle looks to launch a 10M bid for Swansea's Jonjo Shelvey.

PSG and Arsenal are interested in the signing of Napoli foward Lorenzo Insigne.

If you think Mike Ashley would pay £25mil for Andros Townsend off all people, then I've got high grade magic beans to sell you.

People only rate him because Roy Hodgson has a raging stiffy for him and inexplicably picks him for England.

I didn't say that. I actually think Townsend is shit. But a lot of people want him to be signed for no other reason than his nationality and the fact he stepped foot in a Premier League field.

I hope we buy no-one and sell Fazio and Townsend.

If it depended on the people that comment at The Mag, we'd buy him and his PROVEN, BRITISH~! pedigree for  £25m.

Yeah it was such a fun sports anime, really started the trend of the genre bringing in female fans and as a result led to the present where sports anime are some of the most popular going. It's a solid 3 seasons so you've got plenty to watch. Haikyuu! and Yowamushi Pedal are also great recent sports anime.

I watched a couple of episodes from Haikyuu and I felt that it was much more polarized in terms of character compared to Kuroko, didn't like that much. I'll try Yowamushi Pedal though.

:/

I want to know who told Paul Dummett he was a professional footballer.

Team worked hard, but was sabotaged by McClaren's awful tactics. Also, I don't get why Thauvin didn't come earlier.

Kuroko no Basket is so good. I need more. MORE.

Much better than last year, better than the West nowadays.

I am really really jealous of the Boston Celtics, because they have some of my most liked players in their core right now. Jae Crowder is always 'mah boy' since he was with the Mavericks, knowing we traded him away for that knobhead Rajon Rondo still pisses me off.

I also love Ish Thomas because anyone who is 5ft9* and can ball that well deserves to be praised.
Also Brad Stevens is the best under 45 coach in the league and it's not even up for debate, you got a team with literally no 'star' to speak off, and they're 13-9 and right there in playoff contention. Sure it might be the east, but with the team he has and the results he gets (like beating the Bulls...) he needs all the praise.

But at least I can be proud of the Mavericks, the team whiffed on all the big catches this off-season, have four players that had to come back from injuries (D-will, Parsons, Matthews, McGee), and yet Rick Carlisle just gets it done by turning Zaza Pachulia into a double-double player for the first time in his 12 year career...
 

Hey. Hey you. The east's been better this year.

So this is what feels like, to be actually good.

I'm feeling awkwardly confident about the Hornets beating the Warriors.

If you want to see something special it's worth checking out the 4th quarter of this game. Kemba just went totally HAM.
