The ESPN cameras caught a few shots of Pirlo and his lady sharing a kiss. It made for an awkward 30 seconds. Lol
This just might work if you leave the NYCFC game early in the 2nd half. There is a 5pm Acela to Philly that gets in at 6:10. 30-minute ride at most to the Linc with a little traffic. The only problem is that it's $100 for a 1-way ticket.
I'll be at the Linc with my son (assuming USA is in the final), so if you manage to pull this off, first round is on me!
UEFA would do everything in their power to prevent the loss of 3 FIFA votes, so I'm betting it will never happen. I believe FIFA gave a special waiver for the 2012 Olympics and not a single Scots or Irishman played on the team.
If I do it I will almost certainly drive. 2.5 hours should be enough to get from YS to Philly, and if I'm a little late I'm a little late.
He knew he wasn't coming to the greatest side in the world. It's why we need him though I'd argue with fullbacks as our greatest weakness the two Spaniards might prove more important if less exciting to the media.
I think the second half showed why Pirlo/Lamps are so important. Composure on the ball. It was nowhere in that half, save for Poku doing his one man band routine.
I really don't agree but then I do on Poku because at the same time everytime he had the ball he had no one to pass it too. They were either sleeping or just couldn't get opened plus Villa had like 2/3 players on him all match.
You are so right about Poku looking for a pass and his teammates standing around in a coma.
And Robbie Keane better than all of them. Crafty old Irish bastard that he is.
Well, that game killed any doubts I had about upsetting a team that found their winning ways... Still fuming about it 
But luckily it seems that CFG is on the ball and have acted to strenghten the team regardless of the costs/finally started to get things done.
Iraola and an extra CB will be in many ways as important as any input from Pirlo or Lampard I think.

I agree with Petke there but we hardly got anything to lose have we?.. And I don´t want to wait for next season to see the 4-6 players we got lined up for some reason
Iraola and Angelino will have more of an impact than Lampard will. And probably Pirlo.Well, that game killed any doubts I had about upsetting a team that found their winning ways... Still fuming about it

We got absolutely killed on the wings. Upgrades at left and right back should help there.
I've been saying it that Iraola will have the biggest impact on this team. He immediately is the best defender in the league.
Doesn't apply to us. All the players we have coming in are instant upgrades over what we have. Just have to worry about the chemistry, took us awhile to build it and I hope the new guys can get settled in quickly
They did announce it. They said something to the effect of "...Andrea Pirlo and Frank Lamapard who will be joining the club on July 12th vs. Toronto FC."
You sure on that? I'm positive the screen they showed with Lampard and the dates showed Iraola, and not Pirlo.
Edit: Add to that the fact that zero media has picked up on that - we got as close as you could get to an announcement, but we didn't get an announcement.
