[impeh]

do you guys think they'll manage to keep their players? or does it pretty much depend if they get into the CL..

Athletic is relatively wealthy, it's going to be tough keeping everyone because interest will be so great but anyone sold they are going to absolutely cash in on.

Improve the youth facilities of course... And then scouting too.

Improving youth facilities takes time though with no instant results in terms of getting players at the level they need. However their scouting seems spot on.

I would think their youth facilities and scouting are already top notch, how else would they have been able to be competitive for so long with a limited talent pool from an area of approx 3 mio people

I am telling you, if we win the CL, please let this heroic team win the CDR.

I am praying that they win EL as well.

Llorente, Iraizoz, Muniain and Mikel San Jose are all born in Pamplona. There must be something in the water in that place.

They don't deserve anything lower than a CL spot.

The way Anders and Iker led the attack in a big game against a team as big as Manchester United was excellent. Maturity beyond years. Good luck to both the lads and hopefully they will get an oppurtunity to play for the national team very soon

Well done Bilbao, as an old timer compared to the days of Clemente it is like a team form two different planets.

> man utd

man utd are top of epl

∴ bilbao > epl.

flawless logic
