So what are the FIFA partnerships then?

Rio - Rooney
Berba - Vida
Da Silva - Da Silva
Nani - Kiko

I can see Obertan sitting there gormlessly in the middle so I assume he plays with Evra? I think Rio said Young has played with Obertan and Anderson in the past. Oh, and it's definitely Macheda talking ;)

These things are hugely important, obviously.

I feel ill just looking at that one. They don't even have a barrier :nervous:
It looks like it's taken from the spire bit on the top of the Empire State building. The top right in this photo:



If you fell, you'd land on the observation deck below rather than the street (although you'd most likely still not survive).

Another dizzying shot. Looks like Henry has more of a head for heights than Owen (click for large image):

I'm only just becoming aware that our preseason games are as a part of some overarching tournament called the 2011 World Football Challenge that we'll win if we beat Barca by three goals or more
What are the rules for this? We have basically won all our games by several goals yet we still have to crush Barcelona to win it?

We will win the "World Football Challenge" if we A) beat Barcelona two-nil in regulation tmie, or B) beat Barcelona by any score in regulation so long as we've scored at least 3 goals. Pointless? I think no-yes, yes it is.

Err, who are our rivals for the title of this football challenge? It's can't be Barcelona, it's their first match in the US!

Real have 17 points after their 3 games. We win if we get 6 points. If we get 5, it goes to tiebreakers, which Real wins unless we've beaten Barca two-nil, at which points the tiebreakers are all tied and it goes to lots.

That's if we win, of course. Barca will almost certainly win if they get 6 points off of the game against us.
