Yeah, not understanding that decision at all. Setiens resume doesn't look that impressive, is he known in Spain?

His Betis team overachieved while playing nice football. But I'm not sure he'll be able to keep a star-studded dressing room in line due to his lack of pedigree.

Latin/Castilian glossary of football but pretty easy to understand.

PS : Pedifollii (sic) should be Pedifollis (genitive III declension). The Barça fan behind it, Classic languages teacher must not have been happy with it.  :P

Tottenham continues to suck. I really hope Eriksen gets to leave in January so he can join Inter, it's sad to see him waste away.

Also I'd rather visit Milan for a spring game than London. :P

Excellent breakdown of the San Francisco 49er's run offense.  I post it here to PRAWN any naysayers about the complexity of the NFL.

What's going on with the weather in Europe?  Seems like a bunch of matches have been cancelled or at least postponed. 

This probably should have gone in the Weather WTF thread, but I first learned about it when I turned on the TV to watch Man City vs West Ham and the match wasn't there.

Pretty windy in Paris indeed, though I don't think it really qualifies as storm over here.
Back to football, the Dragon may be in a rough shape this season but at least there is still some suspense in the Portuguese league:

Porto 3 Benfica 2

The Milan derby is great tonight.

Not an Inter fan, but I'm also an "anybody-but-Juve", so go Inter.
