Well, there we go. Anderson was just too good today. And Van Gerwen missed his chances at the critical points.

Let's hope Barney can do one on Taylor and then poop on Anderson in the finale.

My local chinese had a 1.5 hour wait to make my chicken fried rice. Worth it, though. That + leftover chocolate fudge cake, aww, yis.

Bring on the Taylor and Barney.

...hate me...
and where was his team afterwards?
either eliminated by group stage or round of 16.
and in the cl matches where city needed him to explode, he lost his fucking fuse. What an unreliable cf.

wc final. higuain sucks but i would give him a c- for effort. where the hell was aguero that match? doing the best harry houdini impression in a wc final sours me greatly.

I am not easily impressed. show up consistently against the big time be it by link up play, assists or goals. goals alone not enough and never enough.
Moving goal posts and answering your own questions. LOL-worthy tbh.

He scored a hat-trick this season against Bayern Munich in a decisive match and the team is still in the Champions League a lot thanks to it tbh.

Noal is so old that he can't even post pics on the internet himself. But I'm happy we have young lads like Wilbur around to help the elderly. That's what humanity is all about, helping the people in need.

Are we still going to pretend that Bayern was playing with 11 men? Aguero did great in that game but let's not exaggerate and pretend as if he was playing against Jupp's treble winning side.

Only hardcore insecure EPL peps like to make it into something extraordinary and special when Bayern didn't even give a fuck about a game that didn't affect their chances of qualifiying to round 16.

Neat!

I have already decided I won't be going for a Nexus 6 by the way. It's just too big for me. Can't wait for the Sony presser on monday :D

Benzema isn't world class
Aguero is

Would Aguero be an astute purchase though, given Benzema's willingness to be Ronaldo's stepladder? That is the question. There's no debate otherwise. Aguero is just better than Benzema.
I'm very amused. Benz over 4 years has more goals in cl than aguero. scored more important goals and made even more important assists or plays that made great contributions to a cl campaign.

Benz was a significant player to our decima win. has the cl medal to prove his wc status. titles are the only real proof of quality. because titles are what we expect from wc players. not disappointing results.

Where is Aguero's cl medal? you're not world class unless A: you got a continental title and played a significant role in it or B: you got a wc winner medal and played a significant role.

Benz is 12th in all time cl top scorers. Benz job isnt even to score goals, what is aguero doing wrong in cl?

It is his job but with our play being distributed on the wings (less now perhaps) he's been more involved with assists than goals despite being our striker. Yes I realize it is stupid but when you have a quality like Ronaldo in your team playing on the wing...

Regardless, it's fucking obscene to say that your main striker's job isn't to score goals.

:(

Aguero is Gr8 m8. Better than Benz.

His whole world cup was so disappointing though. Don't know what happened there.

Z4 Compact hopefully. Sony have their presser at CES on monday. It's very likely they'll announce at least the Z4 there. But I'm rather waiting for the Z4 Compact. Hopefully they'll announce that too. If not, we'll probably have to wait for the mobile expo in Barcelona in march.
Hope the Z4 rumors are true. Can't wait for it.

Turok truly isn't worth responding to. Aguero has 11 goals in 11 UCL games the last two seasons. He has probably the most famous goal in Premier League history and scores against every type of club, big and small. Aguero was injured during the World Cup sadly and it showed.

...you dont follow madrid do you?
CR7 and Bale are the primary goalscorers as carlo designed. Benzema's role is to make sure CR7 and Bale have an easy time attacking and he does this by distracting the cbs or making crucial plays. Why do you think Benzema is untouchable for Carlo? because Benzema is Carlo's italian ss.

Benz will get a goal every now and then but his priority is to make the attack flow, provide support through linkup play, feed CR7 his much needed balls so CR7 can score and we can all celebrate how awesome CR7 is.

Benz is a striker in name only. he is actually a playmaking SS/AM who just happens to be better goalscorer than most forwards in the world.

Aguero actually has a better scoring rate in CL than Benzema so what are you even talking about. The only reason why he has more goals is because Real Madrid play in more games, largely due to how good his teammates are and how much better his manager is.

CL titles aren't the only way to prove you are quality. That's fucking stupid. Ronaldo in 07 wasn't world class despite being 2nd in Balon D'or voting?
