Transfer Window Round-up
European football’s summer transfer window closed two days ago, August 31st, and the buying frenzy that marked its passing saw two significant moves for the Bosnian national team. The more notable of the two involves Zvjezdan Misimović, who left Wolfsburg to join Istanbul’s famed Galatasaray. Elsewhere, Admir Vladavić returned to Slovak champions MŠK Žilina, leaving Austira in pursuit of regular football, the Champions League and a national team call up. Unfortunately, this summer was equally notable for the potential transfers that never went through. More below the field.

Tour de Force

Well, that was humbling. Going into the game, I honestly thought we had a very good chance of coming away with something – a draw at least. Instead we were just left with a bitter taste in our mouths. The world will inevitably focus on France finally getting it together, but I’d ... [read more]
Match preview: France (home)

Well, this is unfamiliar. If you had told me two months ago that we would go into this game against France with half of their population writing Les Bleus off and the other half biting their fingernails, I would have been skeptical to say the least. One shocking loss to Belarus in ... [read more]
Cruise Control

That’s how we played for at least 3/4ths of the game against Luxembourg, and after scoring three goals between the 6th and 16th minutes, who could blame us? A convincing performance that saw us emerge victorious while avoiding injuries, yellow cards and, frankly, over-exerting ourselves. More below the fold. (more…)

The Heir to Spahić?

The Munich Philharmonic's Ode To Bayern

Jose Mourinho Does "Who? Me?" Better Than Anyone
During this evening's Copa del Rey final, won by Atletico Madrid in extra time at the Bernabeu (big win, that one), Jose Mourinho and Cristiano Ronaldo were both sent off. The latter was unjustified, though Cristiano probably could've been sent off for kicking Juanfran off the ball earlier, and there's ...

Radu Mitu Fights The Wind. The Wind I Tell You.
The Moldovan first division. An eighteen year-old kid named Radu Mitu making his professional debut. This happens. It's like watching a three-legged dog fall to the back of the pack as it tries to run a race. The wind took it. Just...the wind took it. Hopefully Radu has a great sense of ...
Zlatan & Leonardo, Sittin' In A Tree
Leonardo, the PSG director not the Ninja Turtle, isn't exactly having a fine few weeks. After Thiago Silva was sent off for lightly placing his hands on the referee last week, Leonardo decided it would be a smart idea to bump the referee in the tunnel. This may result in ...
