Guest howyousawtheworld Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 What do you mean? Apparently he fell sick at the last minute. I bet the whole team are now feeling extremely sick.:rolleyes: They really do seem to enjoy shooting themselves in the foot.:dozey: Ronaldo having a fit in the dressing room before the World Cup final in Paris. But yeah - Tottenham should produce a manuel on 'How to completely cock up your one shot at the big time'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navegador Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 They really do seem to enjoy shooting themselves in the foot.:dozey: Can't argue with that. What the hell were Tottenham playing at with Aaron Lennon? Isn't Brazil with Ronaldo and the 98 World Cup Final not a lesson to look at for them? Now that you brought it up, let me talk about it.There are many rumors about what happened to him. I heard that he passed out while masturbating (apparently it's not that unusual). But, of course, it's just a rumor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was he masturbating to?! :D No chance! I understand there are a couple of accounts about what happened to Ronaldo but I'll stick with the fit in the dressing room! edit: Judging by the misty accounts given for the Aaron Lennon debacle though I wouldn't be surprised if it was him who passed out while masturbating. Something doesn't add up. Lennon turning up a 2 minutes before kick off and saying 'I've got no energy'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navegador Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 What was he masturbating to?! :D The human mind is capable of wonders, my friend! :lol: No chance! As unlikely as it may seem, it's not unusual for players to masturbate before matches around here. I don't care what they do before and after the matches, as long as they play well! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest howyousawtheworld Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hopefully not masturbating in front of the other players?!

Navegador Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hopefully not masturbating in front of the other players?! In normal situations, they do it in their rooms. But in 2004, with our local rivals, two players (more precisely, Fábio Bilica and Felipe Capone) were caught masturbating each other in the team's private bus. The episode is called "Poltrona 36" (Seat 36, because of the seat where it happened). For portuguese speakers: A Poltrona 36 É impressionante a qualidade dos ônibus rodoviários fabricados no Brasil. Eles são desenvolvidos com a mais moderna tecnologia, para proporcionar aos passageiros o máximo espaço e conforto em viagens interestaduais. As maiores empresas de ônibus do mundo possuem esses exemplares brasileiros que lhes oferece economia, resistência e o menor custo operacional possível. Atentos a essas vantagens, também os clubes de futebol adquiriram ônibus. O Grêmio até se orgulha disso. O Trovão Azul, adquirido na gestão do presidente Guerreiro, é um espetáculo e permite, em viagens longas, que os craques gremistas descansem depois de uma dura partida de futebol. Esse ônibus, orgulho do ex-presidente Flávio Obino, possui dois andares. A parte de baixo é dedicada ao entretenimento. Lá existe um bar, televisão, som e mesas de jogos. Os rapazes mais alegres preferem o andar de baixo. No andar de cima, viajam àqueles que querem descansar, relaxar, dormir. Tudo estaria correto, não fosse a utilização, por alguns jogadores, do andar de baixo do Trovão Azul para promoverem uma verdadeira orgia. Isso foi visto pelo ex-vice-presidente de futebol, Hélio Dourado. A festa teria ocorrido na volta de Curitiba. No andar de baixo foi realizada uma farra, enquanto integrantes da comissão técnica, dirigentes e a maioria dos atletas tentava descansar no andar de cima. Esse comportamento se repetiu na vinda de Pelotas, depois do jogo contra a Ponte Preta. Nessa noite, no andar de baixo, os rapazes alegres até dançaram a Éguinha Pocotó. O dr. Hélio Dourado, um gremista de história no clube, se diz chocado com o que viu: “Vi coisas que jamais pensei que veria. Esses cavalheiros, com graves problemas de comportamento, não podem vestir a camisa do Grêmio”, disse Dourado, um dos cardeais do clube. O que teria visto Dourado para se dizer horrorizado com os fatos a ponto de fazer uma relatório apontando para Odone os indisciplinados do grupo? Ao que se diz, não foram somente as farras ocorridas no andar de baixo do Trovão Azul que deixaram o experiente dirigente indignado. O pior teria ocorrido na poltrona 36. O andar de cima do Trovão Azul possui dezenas de poltronas. A última, lá na parte traseira do ônibus, é a poltrona de número 36. Não fosse se localizar praticamente em cima das rodas traseiras, a poltrona 36 seria igual às outras. Ela dispõe do mesmo conforto e até amacia os solavancos. Normalmente, os jogadores que querem descansar ficam bem distantes do fundo do ônibus. Lá, um mesmo grupo se aboleta no conforto das poltronas para jogar conversa fora. A conversa, quase sempre em tom mais alto, provoca gargalhadas homéricas. Quem quer silêncio também não senta por lá. Pois foi na poltrona 36, no fundo do ônibus, que um dirigente teria visto uma cena que o teria escandalizado. Pelo menos era isso que se dizia na noite da posse de Paulo Odone, na presidência do Grêmio. A bordo do Trovão Azul, o time voltava de Curitiba. Um dirigente estava sentado nas poltronas localizadas na parte da frente do ônibus. Cansado, e sem conseguir conciliar o sono, resolveu espichar as pernas. Ele se levanta e vai até o fundo do ônibus e vê uma cena que o deixou petrificado. Na poltrona 36, dois jogadores, desolados com a derrota ou alheios a ela, se consolavam. Escandalosamente. Quem viu, viu! Quem não viu, ouviu. À boca pequena!!! por Adão Oliveira – Jornal do Comércio, 30 de dezembro de 2004 The relevant part of it: Aboard the Blue Thunder, the team returned from Curitiba. One of the team's directors was sitting in the seats located in front of the bus. Tired and unable to sleep, he decided to stretch his legs. He gets up and goes to the back of the bus and sees a scene that left him petrified. In the seat 36, two players, grieving over the defeat or unable to care about it, "comforted" themselves. Outrageously. by Adão Oliveira - Jornal do Comércio ("Commerce Journal"), 30th December, 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc_squared Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Real Madrid 4 Tottenham 0: You've been Ad! Former Gunner at the double as Real run riot By Matt Lawton Chief Football Correspondent Reporting from Madrid Last updated at 12:46 AM on 6th April 2011 Comments (0) Add to My Stories When Rafael van der Vaart suggested Peter Crouch could be a lethal weapon at the Santiago Bernabeu, this is unlikely to be what he envisaged. What was Crouch thinking? What was going through his mind when, having been booked a few minutes earlier, he caught Marcelo with a rash, reckless and utterly needless challenge that invited a second yellow card and with it red. Harry Redknapp was probably mindful of the fact that, only the night before, he sat inside this marvellous stadium and condemned Wayne Rooney for using foul and abusive language. Brace yourself: Former Arsenal striker Adebayor celebrates his second goal One can imagine there were a few choice words Tottenham’s manager wanted to direct at Crouch as he trudged off the pitch in the 15th minute, his side already a goal down to a soft header from Emmanuel Adebayor. But if he delivered them at any point, it was away from the television cameras. It wasn’t terribly sporting of Marcelo to respond to the sight of Felix Brych producing a red card by punching the air with delight, but he was obviously as stunned as anyone. The Brazilian couldn’t believe his luck. Crouch, after all, is a 30-year-old professional with 42 England caps and more than enough experience at this level to know better. A player, let’s be honest, who doesn’t exactly have a reputation for a lack of discipline. Early bath: Crouch was sent off after just 15 minutes following two bookable offences On this occasion, though, he lost his cool as well as his composure, leaving his 10 colleagues with the rather daunting challenge of trying to stop this ruthless, relentless Real Madrid side from building on their advantage MATCH FACTS REAL MADRID (4-2-3-1) Casillas; Ramos, Pepe, Carvalho, Marcelo; Alonso, Khedira (Diarra 61min); Di Maria (Kaka 77), Ozil, Ronaldo; Adebayor (Higuain 74). Subs not used: Adan, Granero, Arbeloa, Garay. Booked: Adebayor, Pepe. TOTTENHAM (4-4-1-1) Gomes; Corluka (Bassong 80), Gallas, Dawson, Assou-Ekotto; Jenas, Sandro, Modric, Bale; Van der Vaart (Defoe 46); Crouch. Subs not used: Cudicini, Huddlestone, Lennon, Pavlyuchenko, Kranjcar. Booked: Crouch, Van der Vaart, Defoe. Sent off: Crouch. Man of the match: Marcelo. Referee: Felix Brych (Germany) 6. That they failed so miserably, allowing Jose Mourinho’s men to extend their lead thanks to further goals from Adebayor, Angel Di Maria and Cristiano Ronaldo, was not entirely down to Crouch. Even if Tottenham’s European adventure appears to be coming to a bruising, brutal end because of the bruises he left on two full-backs. No, there were guilty men in almost every area of the field. The defenders were poor in the way they allowed Adebayor to score his second and Di Maria Madrid’s third; Heurelho Gomes will wince when he sees a replay of his attempt to stop Ronaldo making it four. Players like Luka Modric, Sandro and Jermaine Jenas never got to grips with the likes of Mesut Ozil, Xabi Alonso and Sami Khedira. Even after so little football for the last two and a half months, Gareth Bale was among the few Tottenham players to emerge with any real credit. When he was presented with an opportunity, he did at least have a go and Sergio Ramos was most fortunate to survive a yellow card that would have ruled him out of the second leg. In the end, the statistics told their own story. While Mourinho’s side unleashed 35 shots, 11 of them on target, Tottenham managed only one on target and four in total. In fairness to Redknapp, it started to go wrong even before the game. During his pre-match interview, he had spoken of how he hoped to see Bale and Aaron Lennon attacking on the counter down the flanks. But before the kick-off a few minutes later, Lennon was out; a sore throat apparently forcing Redknapp to select the more centrally-minded Jenas instead. How disruptive it proved is hard to say, but Tottenham looked hesitant from the start and after two swift attacks that ended with weak shots from Ronaldo, a rather more meaningful one from Di Maria earned the corner that led to the opening goal. Heads, you win: Adebayor scores his, and Real Madrid's second after 57 minutes It amounted to poor defending from Tottenham, even if the corner from Ozil was decent enough. Why, after all, did it seem to be Jenas who was charged with the task of marking the tall, powerful figure of Adebayor — a former Arsenal player who can reflect on 10 goals in 10 games against Spurs? Neither Gomes not Modric, positioned on the line, could stop Adebayor’s header and they were struggling to stop wave after white wave of Madrid attacks, too. Spurs were drowning and quickly became frustrated. Crouch got the first of his two bookings for a silly challenge on Sergio Ramos and then self-destructed. Redknapp was right. This season the Spanish are superior to the two Milan teams Tottenham met earlier in the competition. Gift from an Angel: Di Maria nets Real's third with a delightful effort just inside Tottenham's penalty box But with Crouch gone it was going to be very difficult indeed, not least because the movement and fluency of Madrid’s football was just so good. Now playing as Tottenham’s lone striker, Van der Vaart struggled. He was booked for kicking the ball away and then hooked at half-time, Redknapp replacing him with Jermain Defoe. Good fortune had protected Tottenham shortly before the break. Dawson blocked an effort from Di Maria with both hands but Brych ignored the Madrid protests for what should have been a penalty. When William Gallas then appeared to push Adebayor to the ground, they got lucky again. No matter. After Ronaldo delivered a short, 57th-minute corner into the feet of Marcelo, the full back floated a ball to the far post and Adebayor was there, unchallenged, to double Madrid’s lead. All smiles: Di Maria is mobbed after scoring Real Madrid's third goal More sloppy defending proved expensive 14 minutes after that, Tottenham’s back four standing off Di Maria and inviting him to have a crack. So he did, with a delightful effort that curled beyond the reach of a diving Gomes. When Mourinho decided it was time to take off Di Maria, Redknapp watched Kaka go on as his replacement and it was not long before the one-time world’s best player made an impact. It was his cross which Ronaldo met with the volley that Gomes contrived to let past him when he really should have executed the save. Contrasting fortunes: Ronaldo (left) celebrates his goal as a dejected Bale leaves the field after the defeat The road to Wembley still goes via White Hart Lane for both these sides and Redknapp has not entirely given up hope. ‘We are going to need a miracle,’ he declared and we have seen his team battle back valiantly in Europe before. This time, though, a place in the next round appears beyond them. That is thanks to Crouch but also thanks to the brilliance of Madrid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Tottenham needs to get rid of Crouch. He's awful. Strikers shouldn't be making slide tackles, especially that far into the opponent's territory, that early in the game, when they already have a yellow card!! What a fucking dumbass.

I don't know how anyone can say Ronaldo is overrated. Like him or loathe him (and I do think he's an arrogant ass), he is unarguably an incredibly skilful footballer. I bet Spurs would like to have him in their team, particularly in place of a lunk like Crouch.:dozey: 2 embarasments in under a week, I really am starting to think Chivu is a hot headed embarasment to the Inter squad, the ban earlier in the Season after punching another player, sent off in the Champions League last night, maybe that cap he wears is affecting the oxygen flow to his brain.
