Still surprised Villa sacked him, they started slow but I'm sure he would have righted the ship eventually

He has done an excellent job at Villa considering where they were but low key he had to go as he had taken Villa as far as he could. Since coming back to the Prem Villa only had a good 3-4 months and the rest of the time average to poor. He was given more than enough time and support and the signings
have either been hit or miss for one reason or another. Also the record last season without Grealish was bad and this season it's been more of the same.

Soccer brehs. USA is loaded at RB in terms of options...(Dest, Yedlin, Scaly, Cannon). Why so thin at LB? I was always under the impression LB was a better position than RB kinda like LT v RT in football. What's that depth looking like and can we move someone to LB to help Robinson if so who?

Dest play let also I believe. A. Robinson is solid. Bello is just young but he can the ability, only 19

Dest can play LB, so he is guaranteed to make the WC roster (not that it was ever in question) provided that he doesn't get injured.

Scally is actually a LB. I haven't been keeping tabs on most of the newer players on the teams. The field is wide open for LB spots.

The bigger questions are will we see a WC roster with Yedlin and Brooks?

Edit...

Scally is a RB....

:mjlol: it's the same position. Historically LB's get more love because of there being less left footed players majority of them have a wand of a left peg and more swagger. Even tho some of the best ever LB's stronger foot was right.

Wouldn’t it make more sense to protest on a match day given the media will be at the ground anyway? Not a random international break.
Figured as much as well. Also doesn't help that some people originally touted it as a #OleOut protest, so some the Man Utd fans even the ones that are Ole Out were like :camby:.

Football fans (Not all of them) aren't known for their intelligence. :manny:

France put Kazakhstan to the sword my goodness.

Mbappe with a Poker. Benz at the Brace.

Madridstas are probably licking their chops thinking of that Mbappe-Benz link up.

Yedlin is not a proper RB, he’s just fast. I think he used to run track way back when.

I think you have to have Brooks for cover.

Scally is a RB. Not sure who said right footed Scally is a LB.

Bello is good, he's just young and still adjusting to the international game. He will do will when he goes to Europe and adjust there.
