If it makes you feel better Juba, United got knocked out of the cup by Middlesbrough

hollow wind
#

Blazers about to be a whole different team

proud coyote
#

United is like the comedic rich kid in a movie who’s only purpose is to lose

simple seal
#

Hawks with a 15-2 run now cause the second bench players get on the court this team sinks lmao

proud coyote
#

United is stussy Balkan

#

Idgaf about stussy

hollow wind
#

Who’s your eu football team Juba

proud coyote
#

Blazers sub is handling it well

#

Chelsea

#

Always been a Chelsea fan

hollow wind
#

Everyone I went to school with in the UK were Chelsea fans too lol

proud coyote
#

Not surprised, they’re sorta like the Yankees

simple seal
#

Uh

#

No they are not

#

Lol

proud coyote
#

LUL yes we are

#

We are KINGS

dim ledge
#

Everton have more titles than you

proud coyote
#

maybe the dodgers are a better comparison. All the money with less success to show for it

simple seal
#

And more recent success after decades of being cheeks

proud coyote
#

Everton is a dinosaur

simple seal
#

Well recent as in almost 20 years now lol

dim ledge
#

TBF juba convinced me to like the niners by comparing them to pool

#

So idk who pool would be in terms of mlb

proud coyote
#

Hmmm

simple seal
#

But yeah took them 100 seasons to win 2 league titles

proud coyote
#

Liverpool would be like the Cubs, I think

simple seal
#

Nah

proud coyote
#

But the Cubs suck now

simple seal
#

Liverpool way too successful

#

Cubs didnt win shit for 108 years lol

dim kettle
#

Me trying to figure out EU Football when people here comparing teams to MLB and NFL ones.

dim ledge
#

Cards? Maybe?

proud coyote
#

The cards have always been good

#

And are still good

simple seal
#

Real Madrid is the closest to soccer Yankees I can think of

proud coyote
#

For sure lol

dim ledge
#

Them or United at least in terms of spending

#

Not to say united aren't w/o success

#

Just rubbish now

proud coyote
#

The MLB honestly doesn’t have many teams with tons of prestige

#

Whereas euro fb has a lot since there’s so many diff leagues

dim ledge
#

Praying that pool are like the giants so juba has to live with the fact that both SF teams are compared to them

dim kettle
#

These EU Football Baseball team comparisons is just making me sad that they're not gonna be any baseball for awhile. BepoSad

proud coyote
#

Liverpool Giants might be the closest

#

Giants had a longer drought though

#

From 1954-2010

dim ledge
#

Yeah on the little knowledge I have them or the cards makes the most sense especially w history and such

proud coyote
#

Then we won 3 in 5 years

robust grotto
#

( assuming it’s the OP character )

dim kettle
#

They were still the New York Baseball Giants the last time they won a WS before 2010.

proud coyote
#

Stelly

robust grotto
#

oh oh oh yes. Lmfaoo makes way more sense

#

And.. accurate

simple seal
#

Liverpool are like the Canadiens but with actual recent success lol

dim ledge
#

What does that make united

simple seal
#

United are like the Patriots I feel

#

Juggernauts from 2000 to like 2014

proud coyote
#

Pats won a couple years ago but yeah

#

Basically

simple seal
#

Yeah a little earlier

dim ledge
#

Oh this is just N. American franchises as a generality

simple seal
#

But they won like

dim ledge
#

Fair

simple seal
#

13 Premiers in 18 season?

proud coyote
#

I guess lol, there’s no Man U equivalent for baseball

#

You could say the Yankees probably

simple seal
#

They had like 7 league titles before that strecht

robust grotto
#

Beat me to it

dim kettle
#

Do Man U fans act like Yankee fans after a playoff lost?

#

Like, "FIRE EVERYONE!"

robust grotto
#

If the current Yankees had a bit more turmoil then I’d say it matches w United really well actually

dim ledge
#

Lmao they've been asking to fire their bord for years

simple seal
#

Idk man

dim ledge
#

They hate their ownership more than anyone on the planet

proud coyote
#

That’s like all English soccer fans though lol

dim ledge
#

Bar whoever has Kr*enke

proud coyote
#

But yeah, Man United fans protested

simple seal
#

Imagine if the Mets started spending more than the Yankees

#

And you get City

proud coyote
#

Have you seen that one city video

#

After they won the title

dim ledge
#

The one where the streets are empty?

dim kettle
#

The only thing I know about Man U is that they're owned by the Glazer Family.

dim ledge
#

It's honestly ridiculous that they can't fill those seats

simple seal
#

Manchester City rn is if the Chiefs actually won like 3 SBs the past 4 seasons lol

proud coyote
simple seal
#

But without filling Arrowhead lol

dim ledge
#

Embarrassing club in terms of support

Hog you comparing a potential City / Mets reality made me dirty

How is the AFcup going?

proud coyote
#

Is salah in the final?

dim ledge
#

Yeah

proud coyote
#

Nice, who’s he playing

dim ledge

So Mendy has a real chance

#

this team is going to choke so hard its going to be the sf falcons

rustic ore
#

I don't think that's a terrible hire tbh

#

Lynn is well liked, plus SF is a run first team anyways and it's not like Shanahan is gonna stop calling plays

celest zephyr
#

it just sucks since it means losing mcdaniel to the dolphins

#

which i don

#

't get why tf anyone would want to go to that cementary other than cash

rustic ore
#

I mean, is it official he's gonna become their next HC?

celest zephyr
#

nah but it definitely feels like its the expectation

#

i don't think they make this hire otherwise

rustic ore
#

Isn't necessarily a terrible team to inherit if it happens

#

Management is probably more likely to tank you than anything else

#

Mind you I say that knowing full well the Bills are gonna be an SB contender going forward and the Pats are in a great position to get back to being strong

celest zephyr
#

i guess but i don't see how they aren't going to be third fiddle to the pats and bills for a long ass time at this point

rustic ore
#

They have some pieces you could work with

#

Waddle is gonna be a stud

celest zephyr
#

i guess but their qb situation is a mess

if luka actually started a season well he'd easily be a top mvp candidate

Raptors had 4 games in 5 nights and won all 4 MoriaPepega

dim kettle

#

That was still an insane throw and catch

#

Like you couldn't possibly throw that ball any better

#

Just an absolute dime

#

Mind you the Pats came into that game banged up to hell but next man up, no such thing as asterisk wins

rustic mountain
#

Still sucked less than losing out on 19-0

#

After that you pretty much go "well. Not the worst loss in franchise history"

rustic ore
#

True

rustic mountain
#

Because that shit is forever cemented

rustic ore
#

Still has to be the biggest upset in NFL history

rustic mountain
#

It definitely is

#

In a way it is a silver lining. Like.

#

There will never be anything worse than that shit

#

For our fanbase

#

Like I'd rather lose every game in a season by at least 10 points each game

#

Rather than that have again

robust grotto
#

Still ridiculous, 13 or so hours later

dim kettle
#

And still lost.

rustic ore
#

I'd love it if Joey B wins honestly

#

Very likable guy and just a bad ass player all around

#

@rustic mountain Can you please give me Rams for the SB?

rustic mountain
#

Sure thing, but I am looking through picks and stuff and I think some people stopped giving them since I wasn't updating weekly

#

I'll round up everything but idk if the playoffs will count lol

dim kettle
#

And that means I'll remain Pirate King Sports King here. RobinSmug

rustic ore
#

On a side note I would love if somehow the Bengals pull off the upset

#

Just would be nice for that whole city to finally have a title

rustic mountain
#

I started rooting for the Bengals after the Buffalo Butt Kicking so

#

Would be cool if they could do it

You'll get that Bills hat and Josh Allen jersey sooner than later.

How the name "NFL Memes" possibly flies over peoples' heads is beyond me

They sometimes break news or funny stories. But if you're looking at primarily NFL Memes for news, you should clown yourself.

How did the Lakers let that go to over time

honest umbra
#

Westbrook is AWFUL man

#

Like he is so bad

#

god please just bench him

#

why was he even out there in the final minutes

celest zephyr
#

just trade westbrook

#

why even have him on the roster

silk notch
honest umbra
#

He didn’t play a single min in OT

#

And they won so easily

Wow what a coincidence

Glad Ad has been looking back to normal recently

celest zephyr
#

idk the rockets lol

chilly flare
#

Westbrook plays like it was lebron who made KD leave him and this is his way of getting back at him

honest umbra
#

saw this on reddit

#

literally my sentiment

chilly flare
#

Outside of last year Lebron has always found a way to drag his team to the finals so who knows

honest umbra
#

yea but our record is looking awful

#

lebron isnt the fault here

#

dude had a triple double in his first game back from injury lmao

#

and scored 25+ in like 15 straight

#

AD has been playing INSANE

chilly flare
#

How many times did the Cavs look like they were headed for the worst and post all star break and playoffs Lebron dragged them to the finals

honest umbra
chilly flare
#

Lebron is significantly older now

honest umbra
#

monk has been playing amazing

#

its LITERALLY just westbrook being historically awful

#

lol

celest zephyr
#

and still actually tried hard

honest umbra
#

the team also zones off on their defense a lot

celest zephyr
#

its hard to win with an anchor on your team

honest umbra
#

lebron tries, ad been trying, monk been hella trying

#

the rest of the team is mid

#

becuz we sold our farm for westbrook

chilly flare
#

I have learned to not count lebron out until he is literally eliminated from the playoffs

honest umbra
#

we let pope, kuz, caruso leave so we could bench westbrook in OT so he wouldnt be a detriment to the team

celest zephyr
#

the cavs team was devoid of talent but i didn't hear anything about their guys not caring

honest umbra
#

nah cavs team was awful

#

lets be honest

#

but there were only 2 contenders back then

#

warriors and cavs

#

LOL

celest zephyr
#

it was awful but they still gave a shit and lebron was playing otherworldly

honest umbra
#

now theres like 6-7

#

and theres more parity

celest zephyr
#

doesn't help that the east sucked in 2018

chilly flare
#

Lebron just needs to pull westbrook aside at some point and be like you gotta play different of you not playing

honest umbra
#

like u cant beat up on the grizz or the twolves no more

#

they tough af

celest zephyr
#

eh the twolves still somehow get beat up on sometimes

honest umbra
#

westbrook dont take accountability

honest umbra
celest zephyr
#

they are cannon fodder in the first round if they make it there

honest umbra
#

ye but better than being 19-63

celest zephyr
#

i mean tbh pretty much every team tries unless its just soulless

honest umbra
#

nah

#

i feel between 2015-2018

#

teams rlly stopped trying

#

i couldnt name u more than 3 contenders in that span

#

it was steph kd warriors vs lebron cavs

celest zephyr
#

to win a chip but like guys aren't trying to lose games

honest umbra
#

but it feels different now

#

feel like so many teams innit now

celest zephyr
#

you forget the rockets or okc?

#

hell the spurs had 67 wins in 2015-2016

honest umbra
#

and did nothing in playoffs

#

rockets were prob the only true other contender

#

lebron had baby tatum-brown in the ECF?

celest zephyr
#

okc were at least in 2015-2016

#

warriors went down 3-1

chilly flare
celest zephyr
#

yeh the spurs would have done a lot better if that didn't happen

honest umbra
#

idk

#

i still feel warriors win then

#

esp the est

#

the raps?

#

lebronto 4-0'd them

#

hawks?

#

FIVE ALLSTARS

#

4-0'd

#

u cant do that now in the NBA lmao

celest zephyr
#

the raptors were charmin ultrasoft against lebron after 2016

honest umbra
#

bro

#

i remember being in my hotel room

#

watching lebron hit that GW

#

where he runs down the court

#

and just throws it in

#

toronto had to bow to the man

celest zephyr
#

after lebron hid like 4 or 5 fadeaways in a game and won i just quit

honest umbra
#

lowry/derozan teams were tuff

celest zephyr
#

2018 was soulbreaking

honest umbra
#

but lebronto was different

#

not their fault, east was just weak lol

celest zephyr
#

lebron just willed them to victory somehow every game

chilly flare
#

That is how much he owned them

honest umbra
#

all i gotta know to know cavs were trash was lebron dropped 51 in a finals game

#

and they lost

celest zephyr
#

ngl i'm glad they didn't run it back

honest umbra
#

becuz a mans couldnt

#

read a clock

celest zephyr
#

derozan wouldn't have won a ring

#

oh the jr smith meme

honest umbra
#

dw he gonna win one with the bulls this year

celest zephyr
#

yeh but 2018-2019 with the raptors they wouldn't have had a shot

honest umbra
#

havent the bulls been rlly bad

#

last few weeks lol

celest zephyr
#

prob second round exit

honest umbra
#

feel like i stopped hearing about them

celest zephyr
#

yeh they hit a rough patch

#

still number 1 in the east though

chilly flare
#

Bulls are 6-4 in their last 10

honest umbra
#

if this EVER

#

EVERRRRR happens to u in our own arena

chilly flare
#

But they were sputtering for a bit

celest zephyr
#

east teams just blowing too many opportunities to pull ahead

honest umbra
#

esp in front of fair weather fans

#

u gotta rethink ur career

celest zephyr
honest umbra
#

76ers fans would kill simmons

celest zephyr
#

he'd shoot them for like a month brick 80% of them and then people would beg him to never shoot again

#

idk why people want him to shoot it'd be terrible offense

chilly flare
#

Philly fans are just horrible though

#

In all sports

celest zephyr
#

like you want draymond to shoot 5 3's a game?

chilly flare
#

I like Westbrook

#

I hate seeing him like this

honest umbra
#

i like westbrook too

#

dude is a local

#

went to UCLA

chilly flare
#

I really do not care for the Lakers but if he plays well and they win I would be happy

honest umbra
#

but u cant perform like that for the lakers

chilly flare
#

Not sure anyone gave as much effort night in and night out over the last 10 years as he has

celest zephyr
#

i respect that but honestly westbrook's biggest flaw is going overboard too much

#

Jimmy G going to the steelers

A 38 year old and former forgotten La Masia player is saving Barcelona

#

End Product Traore and Barça Alves is truly beautiful to watch

#

Also watched Celtic vs Motherwell today. Motherwell played solidly for the first 30 minutes, also impressive for a team at 4th despite having the lowest budget in the SPL

sweet tree
#

dani alves is a baller still

celest zephyr
#

Man this Celtic side looks so revitalized with a midfield of Hatate, McGregor and Rogic

#

Though I still have doubt on Barcelona’s consistency until the end of the season considering the size of their injury list.

#

However Dembele shipped off at the end of the season would free a lot of wage space for Barcelona to start working to be flexible and not play Bartonomics again.

celest zephyr
#

Auba’s like mediocre anyways

his Dortmund days gone

One thing for sure though. Barcelona’s pressing intensity stepped up and moving up once retaining possession is much better than the Koeman and Setien days relying on Messi to move up.

Auba’s never been good at pressing

Not to forget the some of the latter Valverde games where Messi had to literally pull off a masterclass so Real Betos didn’t cuck them

burnt cedar
#

Barca just have to put it on the plate for him

celest zephyr
#

I remember the 2019 Real Betis game, Messi had to dribble from his own third to the opposite third

#

really impressive but fucking sad that’s was like the only ways on how they can escape the press and move the ball up

#

Also losing Rakitic was big

short spindle
#

Dortmund got battered 5-2 today

celest zephyr
#

Good

sweet tree
#

game got heated lmao

short spindle
#

One thing I know about Dortmund is that they are consistently inconsistent

celest zephyr
#

La Liga referees are beautiful and with the complaining of both sides makes it better AkainuLULW

celest zephyr
#

that’s Dortmund in a nutshell

#

I’d rather rate Leipzig (fuck them), Frankfurt, Wolfsburg, or Freiburg more than them.

#

On thing I’m noticing about Atletico’s defense is there is horrible structure

#

You cant find that common 4-5-1 (5-4-1) press they usually do in defense, like there is no line

#

losing Godin and those players was big on Simeone

dim ledge
#

Simeone's issue is that he has no idea how to bring the best out of a forward anymore

#

Dude made Diego Costa, Fernando Torres, and Griezmann and after that...

sweet tree
#

that's game

honest umbra
#

BARCA WIN

#

what a good fun game to watch

#

It’s been a while since I’ve felt that way

#

First time I have ever seen oblak so irrelevant in a game

#

he had no saves

#

can’t believe Alves is so good at 38

sweet tree
#

probably the best perfomance of the season, and we actually beat a strong team for once.

#

oblak kinda been underperforming this season

#

hasn't been himself

honest umbra
#

more on his defense

#

they looked LOST

sweet tree
#

that alba goal genuinely had me yell ngl lol

honest umbra
#

I have never seen an atleti team defend so bad

#

idk what happened

#

they were misplacing passes, triple pressuring one side, leaving wide space open to get cut open, generally out of it

#

lol

sweet tree
#

they got beat twice in the air, gavi scoring there as the smallest dude in the box is telling

honest umbra
#

auba looked good imo too. He came on in an inconvenient time to hold the ball but had really good touches

sweet tree
#

yeah

honest umbra
#

the thing is idk who u bench

sweet tree
#

sucks alves got a rc

honest umbra
#

Don’t think gavi should be benched

#

Torres/Adama are MUSTS

celest zephyr
#

A good goalkeeper can get good defense

#

a poor goalkeeper can concede to his poor defensive management

#

Oblak is not doing well and coincidentioanlly Atleti’s defense isn’t too

#

so that’s double the trouble

honest umbra
#

Oblak didn’t even TOUCH the ball lol

#

That’s how crazy it was

celest zephyr
#

It’s not even surprising

#

He’s having his worst season

#

and that’s normal, mostly all goalkeepers have that

honest umbra
#

I am used to him being this insane pure shot stopper

celest zephyr
#

What’s concerning is his defense

honest umbra
#

Gimenez cooked

celest zephyr
#

Anyways Barcelona can be positive, but if they have to get results in La Liga,

#

no UCL and CdR, so should be a must to be top 3

honest umbra

Anywhere in top 4 and I’m happy

It’s more money for next season

Glad his career turned out good DoffEZ

But those signs kinda mean nothing to me

I’m proud of my Nakamura Shunsuke and Kyoto Furuhashi signatures

Is Munir the most successful one there?

Koln is fun

Dang everyone truly does hate lepzig

celest zephyr

no one likes them

honest umbra

cash cows

#

I have no feelings towards them

celest zephyr
#

I’d remember going to Hertha, Union Berlin games and hear whistles around the pitch

honest umbra
#

It’s just funny they’re so hated

#

Bexuz of their approach

celest zephyr

constant whistles, swearing, etc

#

that’s what they deserve, tinpot club

#

man we buy top players and still get clapped by Kawasaki Frontale

#

which just gets players for free from High Schools and Universities

short spindle
#

They were once in the Bosnian Premier League

#

They're in 3rd league now

celest zephyr
#

that’s tough

#

good that you know they’re around tho, plastic supporters forget their club once they get relegated and choose another team

#

I know someone who’s a big Tokyo Verdy supporter despite them in J3

short spindle
#

Köln is fun because one season they are close to relegation and next season they are fighting for Europe

#

FranKEKer Forest 4 1 Leicester

celest zephyr
#

before they were league winning team with best players in Japan and now a J3 side

#

That’s the fun part about Bundesliga

#

The table is unpredictable as fuck except top 2

short spindle
#

Look at Wolfsburg

#

Champions league and they are desperate to stay up now

celest zephyr
#

Remember when they almost knocked out Real back in 2014(?)

Stuttgart are also fucked

Yeah

celest zephyr
#

Or Shalke almost getting to the finals?

short spindle
#

Schalke's decline is unreal

celest zephyr
#

things change so insanely

#

but on thing that doesn’t

#

Dortmund being a first half season hype squad

short spindle
#

Feel bad for Dortmund fans

celest zephyr
#

At this point they should slowly accept their fate as a youngster farm

#

I’ve barely seen anyone stay at that club long other than Reus

short spindle
#

Bellingham and Haaland are 100% leaving

celest zephyr
#

Anyways after this Atletico game and United can’t beat them

#

They’re automatically my Meme-Team of the decade

burnt cedar
#

And everyone praises them for it

#

Which I think is stupid

celest zephyr
#

Ajax is a youngster farm but still have players stay and play there. Also they’re good at making “washed” players better again. Also they have more results.

burnt cedar
#

Yep

celest zephyr
#

The absolutely difference between the two “farm” teams

#

Also can’t wait for Cup of Nations

burnt cedar
#

Dortmund fans just accept that they’ll lose their players so they’ll use that as an excuse not to compete

#

Ajax also have a much better youth setup

celest zephyr
#

I’m rooting for Egypt because I love underdogs but I have a strong feeling Senegal might win because Egypt has been running 120min constantly and I bet they’re gassed out.

celest zephyr
#

Ajax: “Linked to Madrid or Barça? Okay let’s beat them then”

burnt cedar
#

Dortmund remind me of early 2010s arsenals where we developed players then sold them, we got slandered for it

#

But Dortmund get praised

celest zephyr
#

Arsenal made sense for that time, Dortmund doesn’t

burnt cedar
#

Wow look at the profits Dortmund have made 👏

celest zephyr
#

also Arsenal needed that money to pay off stuff, while Dortmund just being a cash cow

burnt cedar
#

Yeah

celest zephyr
#

anyone who slanders Arsenal past decade truly underestimated what Liverpool also went through the past decades

burnt cedar
#

Just wish that the money we have now was when Arsene was manager

celest zephyr
#

mfs really forgot what they were like pre-Fegurson and swinging their dicks all over the place

#

Also liking my Japanese exports, hope Tomiyasu is doing well at Arsenal

burnt cedar
#

He’s injured right now

#

Because of arteta lol

#

Played him for no reason vs Liverpool

#

Made his injury worse

#

I do think we sign another rb and Tomiyasu moves into cb

celest zephyr
#

zamn

#

Tomiyasu is a CB naturally but a good RB

burnt cedar
#

Personally prefer Tomi as a cb long term

#

Yeah

celest zephyr
#

Tanky as fuck

#

he’s one of a kind for out NT too

burnt cedar
#

Also quite agile for a guy his size

celest zephyr
#

we rarely have those fast, big, and technical players in Japan

#

last one was Hasebe

burnt cedar
#

Who do you rate more at rb

#

Tomiyasu or Uchida

burnt cedar
celest zephyr
#

Like the Schalke Uchida?

burnt cedar
#

Yeah

celest zephyr
#

Uchida

burnt cedar
#

Yeah same

celest zephyr
#

fucker was insanely good back then

burnt cedar
#

Just think Tomiyasu offers nothing going forward

#

Which is kinda important

celest zephyr
#

sadly his knee didn’t last for him

burnt cedar
#

His Schalke team was fun

celest zephyr
#

Tomiyasu is solid defensively

burnt cedar
#

Yeah that’s why I want him cb

celest zephyr
#

offensively is a 50/50

#

Arsenal can look for a RB at Celtic

#

there is this dude who’s insanely good

burnt cedar
#

It leaves Saka in 2v1 situations a lot

#

Another Celtic fullback BepoBlush

celest zephyr
#

23 Yr old, Ralston

#

dudes a key member of the Celtic attack had two assists today, fucking immense

burnt cedar
#

Has 4 goals this season

#

Nice

celest zephyr
#

Solid in attack and defense

#

Oh yeah Tierney was Celtic too

burnt cedar
#

Yep

celest zephyr
#

I remember him talking about Nakamura Shunsuke and he has his boots

burnt cedar
#

My number 1 choice is Livramento from Southampton

celest zephyr
#

Oh, solid one that

burnt cedar
#

But he’d be quite expensive

#

Probably up to 40m

celest zephyr
#

probably

#

Better to go safe route tbf

#

if it doesn’t work, Tomiyasu back at RB temporarily

burnt cedar
#

Yeah plus I think Bellerin has been okay at Betis

#

So I don’t mind the competition

celest zephyr
#

Forwards though?

burnt cedar
#

Meh lol

#

I really like isak

celest zephyr
#

what do you think you guys go for

#

Isak hm

burnt cedar
#

But I saw today united and Chelsea are also linked to him

celest zephyr
#

that’ll be expensive but he might fit

burnt cedar
#

Yeah it’s a long term investment

celest zephyr
#

United will link to anyone and turn them into dogwank

burnt cedar
#

We’re linked to Calvert Lewin but I’m not a fan

#

He’d be too expensive and he’s limited

celest zephyr
#

don’t know how Arsenal plays but I love ESR

burnt cedar
#

Yeah I’ve followed ESR since he was 16/17

#

Wenger would take him on pre season tours

celest zephyr
#

one of the many underrated players for me this season

#

damn

burnt cedar
#

We’ve got a lot of crazy youth players right now

#

Some have already played for their national teams

#

Marcelo Flores has played for Mexico

#

Karim Rekik at afcon for Tunisia

celest zephyr
#

Wenger did a lot in his latter years, just took time to bloom

burnt cedar
#

Still to play for arsenal

burnt cedar
#

And if you give him this current team

#

No doubt he gets top 4

#

Not really sold on Arteta

#

Can’t break a deep block

#

Questionable in game management

#

Fighting a new player every few months

#

I guess the Amazon doc will show the ins and outs

#

But it’s probably gonna be a propaganda piece to make him look like a God FujiWoke

celest zephyr
#

The three teams I’d definitely wanted to see a deeper look in

#

Real 17/18, Barcelona 14/15, and Liverpool 18/19

#

if it ever was a documentary

#

something about them I just wanted to know more about, because you have to establish some really insane chemistry to be that top class

#

like the short clips of Zidane’s final half time speech, the MSN behind the scenes, Liverpool’s back room in many key games

#

Sports Psychology and Sports Science is fucking cool to learn about when observing and studying dominant teams like them

#

also I’d probably add Ajax’s 18/19 because that was magical

robust grotto

Wow forest beat both Arsenal and Leicester, nice run for them

My god

How is it still 0-0

Ripped Sénégal to shreds just now

Mane quiet after that pen miss if I'm honest

God the reffing is so bad in this afcon lmao

That's not a yellow bro

celest zephyr

Yeah all ball

#

Normal header from Koulibaly

would seriously give me more reason to put him alongside Eito’o and Weah on my list.

Last time a afcon was won in ET was 1965

world cup in the 60s was like 16 teams

iirc

then it was 24 for a good run, and it was expended to 32 in 98 I think

just checked wc was 16 teams from the 50s through the 70s
