Soccer '13-'14 season

Real Madrid starts their season against Betis on Sunday!  Hoping for a League title, and a run to the UCL Finals, but I'm worried the lingering Gareth Bale deal will end up hurting the team just like the Modric deal did last year.  More realistic expectations might be a close second place finish in League, and a Semi Finals run in the UCL.

This will be the most exciting start of the year for the past five. So many variables at play in the BPL, with it up for grabs from any of the top five or six teams. Right now, Man City and Chelsea are the favorites, but that could change at any given moment.

 

 

Arsen, I believe ours is the first Darby of the year too. That's gonna be a fun game to watch!

Last year I watched the EPL for the first time since I was a kid, when they showed condensed games on PBS. Enjoyed it, but still don't have a dog in the fight. I was looking for a Panthers equivalent, but there doesn't seem to be any teams that share our lack of history.

    • The thing I hate about strength of schedule is that NFL teams change so much over a year and past success or failure doesn't really dictate future success or failure
    • Considering you previously struggled to understand BTT despite it being explained in a video, write-up, and multiple replies, I get why this might be a little too complex for you. Happy to clarify again! Just let me know which part tripped you up this time. 😉
    • And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.
