    Alexis Sanchez has admitted to two counts of tax fraud in Spain, during his time at Barcelona.
    He's paid the money back and now faces a large fine, as well as possible prison time, though he almost certainly won't serve it.
    Spanish law allows you to pay to avoid any jail time for sentences of less than two years, IIRC.

    Time to rescind that work permit, I feel. It's only fair. <whistle>

    Just turned Sky Sports on, they're showing United v Liverpool for easily the 35th time.

    Well, it’s not like anybody thought Spurs would be there or thereabouts. Why would anyone have thought that?

    Nike launched a new football boot this week. To promote it they assembled the top scoring strikers in the major European leagues, apart from Spain. Also in attendance was some kid who has scored 15 career goals, 8 in the league. The reason for him being there........well, we all have our ideas on that one....

    Anyone wondering why lots of English youngsters fail to improve from talented beginnings? No, me neither.

    Juventus have unveiled their new logo:


    How to piss off your entire fanbase in one tweet, essentially. Well done. <ok>
    I think it would be suitable for Jermaine Jenas merchandise, if any existed. For Juventus? Not so much.

    That doesn't in any way look like a brazen attempt to appeal to the Far Eastern market...

    Looks to me like a right double quote that lost its way.

    Back when I was 17 I had an Italian girlfriend. Her dad was a mad Juve supporter and she gave me a Juve sticker that was immensely stylish and looked like this:

    Why anyone would want to go away from something that looks that cool, I have no idea.

    A brief history of Juve badges, based entirely off the fact I was a Juve fan during the Football Italia days...and before you ask, it's entirely because Roberto Baggio was playing for them, I genuinely had no idea I was glory seeking

    People back from the dead [again], appearances of formerly unknown siblings, a plot that made no sense whatsoever.....it was like what I imagine Dallas must have been like.

    I thought it was top notch. He seems to be no longer a detective, but the writing is excellent. Who came back from the dead?
