Lol

#

Germany played better than I thought they would

restive sundial
#

Yeah good game

dim ledge
#

Mbappe either needs to control his runs a bit better or grizou has to let it go faster

#

Looked dangerous all game

#

Other than that outstanding from France

#

Midfield had it on lock

restive sundial

💯

Still though, that really sucks. It's one thing for someone to steal from you, it's another when it's your own kid

#

Honestly knowing he has a partial UCL tear now I think I'd rather he get the surgery now instead of putting it off

dim ledge
#

Oh sorry I meant to ping you

#

Stop with the shitposts. Either actively contribute to the convo or don't speak on it. Consider this a verbal

burnt cedar
dim ledge
#

I imagine you got a ping, so this applies to you too

#

I don't mind making it a logged

burnt cedar
#

Rudiger try take a bite out of him lmao will he get punished

dim ledge
#

This isn't twitter

#

Again

#

Activrly contribute or shut up

honest umbra
dim ledge
#

This applies elsewhere in the server so I'm applying it here

honest umbra
#

He isn’t even doing anything wrong, jus felt Pogba live

#

He was the best player on the pitch by far

#

And today should be Pogbas night

simple seal
#

Bruh how much are you hating over a player

dim ledge
#

As I said

burnt cedar
#

I feel like it would be unfair to punish him seeing as everyone should be vaccinated

dim ledge
#

I don't mind making it a logged

burnt cedar
#

Otherwise they wouldn’t be allowed in

dim ledge
#

Contribute or shut up. It's annoying

honest umbra
#

Exactly ajay

#

It wouldn’t even be a thing if it wasn’t pogba

burnt cedar
#

Yep

honest umbra
#

Dude was amazing today

burnt cedar
#

It’s like when they randomly drug test him after a good game lmao

honest umbra
#

Exactly

#

He’s treated differently for no reason

burnt cedar
#

Pogba is one of my favourite players

honest umbra
#

Yet Kante is treated as a saint

burnt cedar
#

Would have been treated better under Wenger

dim ledge
#

Really I should directly mute you for bringing your friend to shitpost but I'll let that off as a warning too

honest umbra
#

Not to say Kante is doing anything wrong but it’s craZy how different the two midfielders are treated

dim ledge
#

You have your logged warning, move on and contribute to the conversation and stop being a child

burnt cedar
#

Like it’s not his fault

#

But people make it seem like Kante is this child who knows nothing

dim ledge
#

And yet he had the same message as you did eh?

burnt cedar
#

I think he even complained about it too

dim ledge
#

Like I said. Move on

burnt cedar
#

Asking them to treat him normally

honest umbra
#

He is the best DM

#

I ain’t arguing that

#

Though some people would say Casemiro

burnt cedar
#

Yeah it’s how they’re perceived

honest umbra
#

It’s just wild how different he and Pogba are perceived

burnt cedar
#

Ones the quiet shy guy

#

And the other is the eccentric bad guy

honest umbra
#

Pogba was lights out today and for once should be praised

dim ledge
#

Only thing casemeiro is better at is aerial challenges

honest umbra
#

Souness should be off TV

burnt cedar
#

Foden changed his hairstyle and didn’t get as much attention as Pogba

honest umbra
#

I’d take casemiro offensively

#

Idk about all that lol

simple seal
#

Casemiro's biggest strenght is avoiding yellow cards with his fouls lmao

honest umbra
#

Casemiro goal against juve Tua in the UCL final is amazing

#

Casemiro has I think 0 red cards?

simple seal
#

Yeah I think so

#

Man sure knows what he's doing

honest umbra
#

It’s crazy because everyone perceived him as this dirty guy

#

Guys never been sent off lmao 😂

dim ledge
#

Aight

honest umbra
#

Mbappe was average today

#

Benzema and griezmann became a bit invisible with so much German possession

unborn sandal
#

Was that photo from the play where Mbappé started to run from 3x the distance from the ball Hummels had?

honest umbra
#

Yea

#

It was crazy how he caught up

unborn sandal
#

ah then fuck off lmao

honest umbra
#

His speed is insane

#

Yes I’m well aware how football works

#

I was just stating why they became invisible

burnt cedar
#

Like every footballer out there

honest umbra
#

Haaland serves a diff role than Mbappe

#

He’s a pure striker

#

Griezmann is amazing at tracking back

#

And pressuring

burnt cedar
#

Good luck shifting them wages

honest umbra
#

I’m a Barca fan so I don’t want that

#

Messi is not dragging him down lol

#

Yikes we have major trolls in chat today

simple seal
#

Sterling lol

dim ledge
#

yeah cuz dude i muted invited them all

#

already starting with the bans

#

so thats fine, i dont mind

honest umbra
#

Messi being behind the likes of sterling isn’t a troll?

#

That’s absurd

#

Oh that’s also absurd

#

I watched every Barca game this season

#

Griezmann decides when he wants to show up

#

He would have absolutely no effort some games and miss blank shots

#

He always shows up for France because le bleus, he loves

#

But Barca it isn’t there

#

Dembele was healthy for 90 percent of this season and showed flashes but didn’t live up to the hype

#

We have to move past The narrative that he’s talent wasted

#

Dembele isn’t smart with possession

#

Often he just tries to race behind them and doesn’t create anything

#

Sure but Barca stayed patient with him and gave him everything

#

He was healthy this season and was subpar

#

What’s the excuse for that?

unborn sandal
#

At some point Barça just started spending randomly and screwed up hard their budget

honest umbra
#

I mean this season has been good in terms of spending. It’s been all free transfers

#

Bartomeu was awful but we move on

unborn sandal
#

yes, now

honest umbra
#

Man U won’t even give 90m for sancho

#

Why tf they gonna give 70 for dembele

#

Them mofos are cheap

#

😂

#

Ah yes the floodgate of bidding 80 mill for sancho

burnt cedar
#

United will get sancho for the price they want imo

honest umbra
#

It’s truly a revolution

burnt cedar
#

Dortmund will eventually cave in

honest umbra
#

No they won’t

#

They finally don’t have to cave in

#

Bro did y’all even make it out of the UCL Group stage

#

Lmaooo

#

Any true fan

#

You haven’t had a true trophy in the last 10 years

burnt cedar
#

Means nothing if he forces his way out

honest umbra
#

And the one manager who brought it to you you fired him

#

Wtf?? They are in the champions league

#

Y’all lost the Europa final to Villarreal

#

Lmaooo

#

Trashhhhh

#

No they’re still in it

unborn sandal
honest umbra
#

Yea I’d rather make it past the group stages than not even make it out of the group stages

#

Lmaoo

unborn sandal
#

Barça and RM are in

honest umbra
#

You’re a Man U fan and using liverpool dictation to bring Barca down

#

Down bad

#

Don’t even remember your true rivals

#

Because they’re so far above and beyond you recently

#

Nice!!

honest umbra
#

You got 2nd place when liverpool were using 7th place center backs??

#

And they got third??

#

Revolutionary!!

#

Mourinho got 2nd and won the Europa yet he got fired but oles at the wheel

#

Ain’t he

#

But ole hasn’t even done that in different seasons

#

As opposed to?

#

We underperformed our XPTS by 80 points this szn

#

Those numbers are irrelevant

#

Lmaoo

unborn sandal
#

huh

burnt cedar
#

I don’t even think them guys were trolling lmao

#

Sounded like a normal convo

unborn sandal

there was some bait but the talk was evolving to legit

Not a single one will be missed

shitty raid ez ban

it was not about the subject

it was about the nature of their joins

#

we can move on now

burnt cedar
#

He was right about De Gea tbh 17/18 he was crazy

#

Him vs arsenal

proud coyote
#

de gea was nuts

burnt cedar
#

Think we had 17 shots on target

#

And scored 1 goal

dim ledge
#

de gea even in the last decade is probably the only PL keeper i rate over Lloris on overall performance throughout those ten years

simple seal
#

2018 WC destroyed him

dim ledge
#

despite him being...average at best the last year or two

burnt cedar
#

A fax machine destroyed him

simple seal
#

Oh yeah that shit lol

proud coyote
#

spain always has the ridiculous goalkeepers

unborn sandal
#

Goalkeepers' game relies a lot on mental health

Look at what happened to Karius and Kepa

dim ledge
#

i mean sure

simple seal
#

Yeah

burnt cedar
#

Mental health

dim ledge
#

but both of them were never at De Gea levels

burnt cedar
#

Did Petr Cech think about my mental health

unborn sandal
#

no, neither was a world beater, but went from okayish keepers to piss poor

burnt cedar
#

I saw him nearly pass the ball back into our goal

dim ledge
#

agree there jugo

dim kettle
#

Someone was trolling on a sports channel on an One Piece server? Okay. Weird shit.

proud coyote
burnt cedar
#

Like Willian

dim ledge
#

i hate chelsea but to be honest

proud coyote
#

he only thought about what was best for the glory of chelsea

dim ledge
#

Cech is up there with the best, if not the best ever PL keepers

burnt cedar
#

Willian might be the worst signing I’ve ever seen arsenal make

#

And we’ve made some terrible ones

proud coyote
#

LUL remember match week 1

dim ledge
proud coyote
#

the peak of willian

dim ledge
#

idk man

burnt cedar
#

David Luiz brought a lot of experience and was a good influence in the dressing room

unborn sandal
burnt cedar
#

David Luiz was levels above Willian

dim ledge
#

ill give you that

burnt cedar
#

Luiz was our only defender who could pass as well

dim ledge
#

that is so important and people don't always realise

#

besides Virgils immense defensive acumen, we missed his play from the back SO MUCH this season

burnt cedar
#

Willians best contribution was going Dubai and getting banned

#

For breaking covid protocols

#

If that didn’t happen ESR wouldn’t have come in

#

And we wouldn’t have beaten Chelsea

#

Then again if Willian played we’d have lost and arteta would have got sacked

#

So guess he even messed that up

#

Instead Lampard gets sacked, Chelsea get Tuchel

#

And then win the ucl

unborn sandal

butterfly effect

What a terrible sport football is

unborn sandal

you want a funny butterfly effect story?

burnt cedar
#

Hit me

unborn sandal
#
  • 2018 WCQ, Chile draws Bolivia at home
  • Someone realizes Bolivia lines up an ineligible player, a Paraguayan-born who hasn't fulfilled the citizenship rules
  • Chilean FA appeals
  • Peru realizes the same player was lined up against them, joins the appeal
  • The appeal is given, both Chile and Peru are awarded 3-0 wins
  • But as Chile converted a draw in a win, adding 2 points, Peru converted a defeat in a win, adding 3 points
  • Fast forward to the last WCQ matchday
  • Brazil beats Chile 3-0
  • On parallel, Peru and Colombia draw 1-1
  • Peru and Chile end equal in points, but Peru has better goal difference (by 1 goal)
  • Peru grabs the playoff spot and plays New Zealand
  • Chile is out of the WC
burnt cedar
#

Damn lmao

dim ledge
#

if they hadn't appealed, Chile would've been WC bound potentially? jeeeez

unborn sandal
#

there's a good chance that was the case, unless Peru somehow noticed themselves

dim ledge
#

speaking of world cups

burnt cedar
#

I’ve been to a Chile game

dim ledge
#

idk how many Brasilians you guys know

burnt cedar
#

When they faced Brazil at the emirates

dim ledge
#

but all my Brasilian friends here were like convinced in the 2014 world cup that Neymar wasn't actually injured

burnt cedar
#

1-0 to Brazil firmino no look goal

dim ledge
#

and that there was a body double/lookalike doing all the injured posts

burnt cedar
#

Chile should have beaten Brazil in the last 16 of that World Cup

#

Was so mad when Brazil on

#

the crossbar at 119' is still a traumatic episode

burnt cedar
#

The guy missing the penalty then getting it tattooed

#

Pinilla I think

dim ledge
#

at least you didn't get reamed 7-1

Pinilla was Balotelli before Balotelli, until he turned his life around

That penalty shootout had the best penalty I’ve ever seen

Aranguiz

Aránguiz

burnt cedar
#

To this day I’ve never seen a penalty that good

#

Julio César's instinct wasn't stopping it, but covering his face. That says everything

dim ledge
#

best pen i've ever seen was actually during a greek league match

#

i have to find it now

#

all i remember is that it was an african player

burnt cedar
#

Once Cazorla scored a Panenka and the English press put out articles saying how disgraceful it was for ruining a young keepers confidence

dim ledge
#

think he was on Panathinaikos

burnt cedar
#

The score was literally 4-0

burnt cedar
#

Alexis scored a 96 minute panenka for us too

Damn lmaooo

Is this the same Cisse

dim ledge
#

Djibril, yeah

You know who’s scored a world class goal

argentina has a good attack, an ok midfield, but a shit defence

#

and for the attack they rely on messi too much

dim ledge
#

I honestly truly feel for Messi

unborn sandal
#

Argentina discovered a pretty good defender, that Romero kid

but he got injured and they had to line up Otamendi

outer tartan

he always gets made fun of for not winning it

I'm not a Barca fan by any measure (don't dislike them but) but Messi has so much on his shoulders both for Barca and Argentina

It isn't fair that he's always to blame

tagliafico isnt that bad though

Mctominay was solid but robbo was working both ends

Newcastle had this Peruvian winger Nolberto Solano

Don't forget iirc unless someone passes him today, Robertson has the most chances created so far in the euro

Was a baller

gundogan almost seems wasted

Seething hot take btw

Gulasci is, currently, the best goalkeeper in that group

burnt cedar

They should switch formation

honest umbra

what do u think?

they have too many midfielders

burnt cedar

3 atb isn’t really needed for the the next 2

honest umbra

but idc who plays

I’d just go 433

he is too good to be wasted

gulasci, lloris, patricio and neuer?

patricio has had his moments

But idk

Gulasci was outstanding for RBL

patricio won portugal euro 2016

Patricio is good but he’s no Ricardo

Best Portuguese keeper

idk what that has to do with patricio, balk

At the very least that group is going to have some insane saves

whats even point of group stages anymore

32 is good enough

sometimes sweden or italy doesnt make it

I would take 2 space from Europe and give it to Africa tbh

Originally was Argentina+Colombia

Colombia has COVID+social crisis, Argentina has COVID+economic crisis

Chile agreed under conditions CONMEBOL didn't want to fulfill

Uruguay and Paraguay are the dirtiest teams in the zone. But they're clever dirty, they make calculated shithousery to get in your head

Thursday to Sunday games are too taxing on players

Starting this season

honest umbra

are u asking as an arsenal fan, sencho?

burnt cedar
#

It should be Tuesday Wednesday early kick off = Europa

#

And evening kick offs ucl

#

Would benefit everyone

#

If they need games on Thursday then just do that new tournament

honest umbra
#

too many games

burnt cedar
#

There’s gonna be like 100 games on Thursday regardless

#

With Europa and Conference league

honest umbra

God knows

#

Will we even get it stateside?

#

We barely get Europa as it is

burnt cedar

Conference league will be one of them competitions you only hear about it

#

Never see it

#

No proof a teams even won their games

honest umbra
#

unless some crazy goal happens

dim ledge
#

Spurs

#

Its the perfect plan

If nobody watches you blow a final against a second division team, did it even happen?

#

Actual question fate

#

To your knowledge

#

Is the Arab gulf really that much hotter than like, Brasil, during the summer?

honest umbra
#

yes

#

much hotter

#

the heat is killing

#

i can understand why theyre not doing it

#

players would die andb they'd neeed water breaks every 20 mins

#

qatar is sweat

#

but still winter is still weird to me

dim ledge
#

Damn, fair. I figured at least Brasil was on a similar equatorial area but

#

Yeah winter is bad

#

I wonder if any players who played in the 18 WC complained about the sun always being up in St. Petersburg

honest umbra
#

didnt seem too crazy

#

its still st petersburg

dim ledge
#

Yeah but that's like 20 hours of daylight

#

Or something

#

I hear as long as you have curtains it's fine

unborn sandal
#

(celsius)

dim ledge
#

Huh. Yeah I figured it has to do w weather and sea winds, maybe Arab gulf is particularly bad BC it's also a desert?

#

My island in Greece is a subtropic technically and we get up to 42c but since we're right on the water the nights are super cool from the sea too

unborn sandal
#

the thing about desert is that temperatures go wildly extreme. Very hot days, very cold nights. Coastal zones are less variable

My town is close to a desert as well, but the sea current's effect is stronger

Maybe it's because the Arab Gulf is enclosed with the only opening going even further to the equator, and a landmass that reduces or stops the wind from the north

smoky fable
#

Winters in the desert aren't too bad.

#

This ought to go well.

deft shadow
#

Please no reinjury

smoky fable
#

No KD?

#

What

#

donovan mitchell?

proud coyote
#

well, KD missed half the year

#

and both third team guards were around DM's level of play

smoky fable
#

Even with Mitchell having a better record than Beal?

#

Or does that not matter.

proud coyote
#

I think if anything that hurts his chances here. Beal was carrying that team with Russ, Mitchell had a much stronger supporting cast

smoky fable
#

I'm surprised Trae didn't make it either, thinking about it.

#

That's what I'd figured you say. It's a fair point.

proud coyote
#

that one isn't surprising to me, his shooting could be a lot better

smoky fable
#

that was true

dim kettle
#

Point scores. 1-0 Bolts.

proud coyote
#

sheesh

smoky fable
#

But damn, these things cost players a lot of money.

smoky fable
proud coyote
#

I'd imagine he's pissed jimmy got it over him

smoky fable

Mitchell lost money as well, speaking on which.

haughty moss

#

Massive goalie collision. Geez.

#

Point got pushed right into the Isles goalie.

ancient dagger
#

That was some BULLSHIT call.

honest umbra
#

is harden ok?

simple seal
#

This is the 2nd time this happens to the Lightning these playoffs

ancient dagger
#

Lucky only the 2nd! Refs have been an absolute joke all season. More than ever before.

dim kettle
ancient dagger
#

I don't understand why the other ref didn't call a meeting to discuss first.

dim kettle
#

Refball at it's finest.

ancient dagger
#

They washed out a penalty earlier in the season.

#

Feels more like Calvinball.

whole bear
dim kettle
#

You know, the more I think about it, why does the player with the puck get called for goaltender interference? Makes no sense to me.

ancient dagger
#

Context. It makes sense when the context supports it. It didn't support it this time. Not at all.

#

If a player with the puck couldn't get called for goalie interference they would just charge into the goalie non-stop and hope they disrupt the goalie's ability to play the puck (make the save). If it didn't work that last time, eventually the ongoing assault on the goalie would wear them down if not outright injure them.

#

So, it would eventually work in their favor at the cost of the health of the goalies.

smoky fable
#

Nets are in trouble

dim kettle
#

No. 1-1

#

Off refball basically.

smoky fable
#

Huh

ancient dagger
#

Isles pushed Point into their own goalie. Ref called a penalty on Point for interference. Isles scored.

Still...stupid.

Again, people are gonna be shock that Harden isn’t doing anything like he doesn’t always do this in the post season injured or not.

tampa scored on it right?

ancient dagger

Tampa scored as they had too many on the ice.

#

Not super blatant. None of the extras got involved.

#

But, still a blown call

dim kettle
#

I was actually more worried that Kuch was offsides and then I saw that

#

Kuch completely owned Leddy on that play though

ancient dagger
#

Kuch is good

#

Haha

#

Palat’s stache is heinous, haha

#

That was random . Two lightning players had to rush to the bench off the face off. Lucky that didn’t turn into something.

Yeah, I saw one of the sticks fly.

I remember people were saying Ryan Pulock was on his way of becoming a bust a few years back. Barry Trotz has really helped a lot of Garth Snow's picks become really good.

haughty moss

celest zephyr

harden should just sit

idk why he played

thought he'd be shit most likely

the nets on the other hand no kyrie and no harden

harden looks like a shell of himself today

smoky fable

Thoughts?

dim kettle
#

So basically the Boston Celtics a few years ago.

celest zephyr
#

they actually had depth though

#

the nets burned most of theirs for harden

#

and then LMA retired and dinwiddie is out

dim kettle
#

Funny how some trades come to bite you in the ass in or out of your control.

celest zephyr
#

yeah having depth now would really help

dim kettle

Now Durant is probably wondering how Lebron was able to carry the Cavs on his own in 2018.
