Players all basically becoming robots

Xavi and Romeu should switch roles

#

Romeu is bald he'll figure something out

honest umbra
#

Are u saying bald managers are good?

#

What about ten hag then?

It's like a perk

Bro won the WC too

so people gotta listen

#

true

burnt cedar
#

I blame positional play for this all

honest umbra
#

but tbf he had a slight advantage in having Messi “do whatever he wants” lol

sweet tree
#

youth players should be allowed to make mistakes

honest umbra

Not every winger can do what Messi can

yeah they're not even pros

That's one of the reasons why

You almost always have Spanish managers anyway

Just saw that he’s leaving after the season

He blames himself

#

Let’s just say Xavi prob wanted to step down and board def didn’t stop him

#

I wonder what it means for his managerial career

hasty basin
#

Well

#

It didn't stop Gerrard

smoky fable
#

I’m not sure who they bring in to replace him

hasty basin
#

It won't stop him too

honest umbra

Gerrard, lampard, rooney route?

Yup

Don’t think Xavi takes a role at another La Liga team though

smoky fable
hasty basin
#

Not a La Liga team

honest umbra
#

Very underwhelming

#

But maybe he can teach them how to defend

burnt cedar
#

People always think they want more jobs but they might just decide they’ve had enough

honest umbra
#

Well the fact that he started in Qatar means he was really in for the long haul

#

But I wonder how this experience will shape him

burnt cedar
honest umbra
#

Don’t think he was hurting for money

burnt cedar

Neither are any of the players or managers. who go to the Middle East

Bit extra won’t hurt them

# hasty basin Watching footy is more tiring now

Everyone just makes the more accurate pass instead of the ones that are risky but bring out the more interesting results. By bringing everyone up to a robotic level of play they eliminate the bad but it also kills the special talents. There’s an interview with lillo (pep’s assistant) talking about it and he talks about the issue

Lmao it reminds me of the

This one

You could say

It's slowly turning more into a business

An investment

He talks about how football is an art and you can’t make art with your fist closed. The young players can’t develop the artistic part of football when they’re not enjoying what they’re doing

Wasn’t this for the 2014 World Cup?

https://youtu.be/ld5abqK2WbI?si=ujCUb-XK6UjhpSY6 it’s in french and Spanish only but this describes perfectly how I feel the modern game has turned the players

1er septembre 2023. En conférence de presse, Juan Manuel Lillo explique son regret de constater l'uniformisation de l'entraînement et du jeu dans le football contemporain. Pour l'Argentin, nous sommes dans l'ère du "Dostoquismo" (l'obsession pour le jeu en deux touches). Ce phénomène nuit à la richesse du football et à distinguer l'authenticité ...

Hey, HHH has one thing going for him though. He isn't having Twitter fights with Jinder.

#

And then he tried backtracking later by saying NXT was always their developmental brand when at the time it was being treated as a 3rd brand alongside Raw and Smackdown

dim kettle
#

I do remember seeing that before I stopped watching.

#

2019 really was the dark days for the WWE.

rustic ore
#

TK really needs to get off Twitter though outside of promoting events and whatnot

dim kettle
#

Honestly, what TK needs to do is actually get someone else to book the shows,

rustic ore
#

Indeed, let Dynamite and Collision be their own shows.

dim kettle
#

It's pretty funny that wrestlers being some of the most sensitive people you'll ever meet will complain that marks couldn't book a wrestling show to save their lives. And here you have a literal mark from the ECW days booking the shows.

Tony Khan has botched his own company

He had so much potential

But he doesn't care about building stories or long term booking anymore

At the time their "minor league team" was being treated the same as Raw and Smackdown, and then AEW kicked their asses in the ratings so badly they had to move it from Wednesday to Tuesday

Happens when you market a wrestling product to hardcare fans and only appeal to them.

I used to be a huge AEW Mark but even their biggest fans can admit it's been shit the past 6 months besides MJF

The Elite are a reflection of AEW. They think they're bigger than they really are.

That was prime AEW for me

Cody was a goat in AEW 5 star match after 5 star match

THANK YOU

I've never came up with a statement for them but that's perfect

They think they bigger than they are

All in all I enjoyed this show

I woulda had Punk won tho my only problem tonight

dim kettle
#

I'm not a fan of either brand just to get that out of the way. It seems like as the years go back, the more these wrestlers are focusing more on trying to get over as stunt devils instead of getting over being themselves as characters.

#

Mick Foley, Eddie Guerrero, etc were able to do stunt devil stuff. But they also got over as characters.

There's many times I'll watch AEW and go, "Why should I care for these guys?"

There's definitely more structure. This coming from someone who just got back to watching the WWE again after not watching all of 2020-2021 and the majority of 2022. Not everything is great with the WWE now. But comparing it to what it was in 2019, where it felt like I was gonna go brain dead. I can at least watch through parts of a Raw and watch an entire episode of Smackdown.

#

But man. I remember it was 2013 and after Extreme Rules that year just telling myself, "This is gonna be the worst year I've seen the WWE." And it just felt like a curse, because it seemed like year after year it was getting worse and worse.

They need to move up Bron already

Dominik isn't much older than me either. And it's such a weird feeling being able to say, I saw Dominik as a kid and as a pro wrestler on TV.

rustic ore

Watching Dom grow as a performer is honestly a treat

#

He's such a little shit

#

Him and Rhea give me big Eddie and Chyna vibes, and I love that

dim kettle

Man, the dude got so much malice from the crowd tonight. If Dominik won the rumble, that place would've rioted.

amber grove
#

Main Roster crowd even knows

#

I feel like we will have to wait for Trick another year he prolly gonna be a NXT Champ but I feel like after Mania Bron and Melo getting called up

dim kettle
#

Always funny to hear how all these guys can't join the main roster because they got to work on mic skills when the likes of Theory could beat Cena at a WM. Still don't know who Theory is suppose to be.

amber grove
#

Vince rushed Austin

#

He's not ready yet but he's solid

rustic ore
#

Young in so far as him being a pro wrestler

amber grove
rustic ore
#

He's only been doing this for 3 years

dim kettle
#

It's just wild though. Considering the WWE back then were ready to cut Cena because of the same reasons Theory was at the beginning of 2023.

rustic ore
#

He's not as good as Melo in the ring but what he lacks in wrestling skill rn he more than makes up for in character, charisma, and mic work

amber grove
#

Ngl Cody winning still sucks to me I really wanted Punk

rustic ore
#

Punk will win Elimination Chamber and get Seth at Mania

dim kettle
#

Someone had to win it.

We need Punk vs Rollins I need those promos

rustic ore
#

Side note, while Nothing but Net is a cool Melo really needs to find a new finisher. Leg Drop from the top rope is just begging for back problems

If they would've let Rhodes win last year and CM Punk wasn't involved, Gunther would've been it.

Hell In a Cell still to me needs a lot more time to forget how bad that match with Wyatt and Rollins was.

rustic ore
#

Was beyond stupid they made the decision to extend beyond world titles to secondary titles for MITB btw

amber grove
#

Ngl the MITB a joke rn the way the last 2 Men's winners have gone down Theory cashes in on the US title....... (Are you having a laugh Vince) and now Priest has bad it for over half a year

rustic ore
#

It's braindead that they have Priest teasing he's gonna use it and then not tease he's gonna use it when it would make sense

dim kettle
#

Doesn't help we're still remaining in a PG environment so the likes of blood can't happen in a HIC or EC match.

amber grove
#

Blood has happened in a couple matches

#

Brock bled multiple times in his last run

rustic ore
#

Like why wouldn't he cash in after Seth won a Last Man Standing match against Shinsuke?

#

How does that make sense?

dim kettle
#

Brock always seems to bleed though. Props to the WWE not stopping the damn match against Cody when that happened though.

amber grove
#

And set up a rematch with Seth at the Rumble and immediately drop it because of a Judgement Day mess up

rustic ore
#

It's just dumb

amber grove
#

Setting up Priest vs Finn at Mania which may still be on

#

Judgement Day will have Priest leave soon I feel

Side note

#

Why the hell would you bring back AOP and Paul just to have them be underlings for Karrion Kross of all people?

#

Dude has been a jobber since he came back

amber grove
#

Let it cook

#

Trust me

#

That has money written all over it

#

Them vs Bobby and the Street Profits will be great

dim kettle
#

Not everyone who wins the MITB has to win the title. But it's also a reminder of how the WWE still can't figure out how to make use of all its talent to progress and make it believable a lot of these guys could be main event guys. Like, Priest won the briefcase directly after losing to Bad Bunny.

#

What sense does that make?

Not as long as I thought

I think the problem is the storylines between the start and the payoff have been meh. Cody Rhodes needs to finish the story. But in the middle of it, he's facing the Judgement Day endlessly for months.

Did Cody win?

I'm spoiled because I saw the peak of Evolution. But I'm looking at the Judgement Day and I'm just asking, where exactly is the payoff for this group? Dominik is a heat magnet and Rhea is good. But where's the progression?

And who were the last two?

Cody and Punk were the last two and Cody won

I really wanted AJ Lee

I think we will get it eventually

Must be nice for her to finally be talked about on WWE and not have to awkwardly avoid talking about Punk

fun fact: I believe the largest ever gap between 2 sides meeting was when Tottenham were drawn away to Marine, who were in the 8th tier. What made it even better was this was not too long after Spurs had spent £1 billion pounds on their new stadium. Marines Stadium had numbers on the high fencing surrounding it so the players knew which house to knock on the door so they could get the ball back
