La Liga 2018/19 Discussion

The option to buy is high enough that Sevilla absolutely won't pay it, even if Silva scores 20+. They're cheap like that.

Could turn out to be a blessing for Milan.

they will activate that option tomorrow

Also games are played late in La Liga at this time of year because it's hot af iirc.

Bale

Rob Palmer still works for Sky as one of the Soccer Saturday reporters.

No idea about Armstrong, but I think Eleven got most of the old commentators.

It's strange to watch Madrid/barca matches without them.

And that's why Sevilla binned Soria.

Nice goal though.

This is so true lol, quiet evenings in Spain before 3am almost never happens.

Would love Rob Palmer to commentate Serie A games now that Ronaldo is here but he's probably clueless about Italian football in general

Ray Hudson just called Carvajal the "Ex-Bayer Leverkusen man"

Can you tell me what kind of company Eleven is? Never had heard of them until I found myself watching a stream of theirs showing Torino - Roma, I think, and I could have sworn the commentator sounded slightly Australian

why would you mention that now after so many years and not that as if matters to mention Bayers name

why Asensio tried to be Ronaldo there! ruined a great chance to create something

Right? It's a strange thing to say, or cry out, in Hudson's case

Don't know much about them other than they're owned by the same guy who owns Leeds United. An Italian iirc.

Seems like they brought up a bunch of rights to broadcast in smaller countries before gaining territory in the UK with La Liga and Serie A (which they took off Sky and BT respectively, so it's quite a coup for them).

The guy who commentated Torino/Roma actually does Match of the Day in the UK.

I don't think they have their own battery of commentators like Sky do. Seems they use freelancers.

did La Liga have it last season also that they shows a 3D replay or highlights, live, during the game ? they show it from all the angles, I quickly became fan of it

I just started taking medication for my foot injury and I don't think I'll be able to watch this full game because I'm falling asleep

But Modric needs to start over Isco for sure, that's my thoughts. Bale has been great

Benzema has been also good till now.

Djene gifted us that goal, terrible play

lucky Madrid that they could create that chance, nice finish from Bale though !

Bale

That Asensio shot was too fast for my stream
