28 yr old Merino doesn’t excite me

Hope I’m wrong but this just kinda seems like a extra body without raising the ceiling

Another sp*d bottling it, even post retirement.

whats up with these french north african decent not living up to their potential.

Houssem Auoar is the most annoying to me because he had all the talent to be a top 2 cm today

Them boys soft

Same reason Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia only have 4 AFCONs amongst them even though they have better sporting infrastructure in Africa.

Take Al-Ahly out of the equation and Egypt would be in the same boat

 

[phcitywarrior]

I’m out the loop, what did he do?

 

[nahnah]

I remember when he was commentating on a Japan game at the world cup chatting about them having "A chink in their armor"

Joao Felix joins Chelsea from Atletico Madrid as Conor Gallagher exits

Chelsea sign Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid for £45m as Conor Gallagher moves in the opposite direction for about £33m.

If Gallagher is gone Sterling better start looking for a team as well...

Diabolical signing from Atleti

They come from Lyon lol.
Lyon has had the best academy in France so everybody who come out of it is deemed the next Benzema.

They never live up to the hype because they are overrated really and when they don't reach the hyped potential people think they underachieve but they just are where they were meant to be.

However the hype come from 3 things :
- Lyon academy's rep
- Lyon Fans who are desperate for the next Benz/Lacaz
- Maghrebrehs are desperate to have a top player in the NT

Fekir, Aouar, Benzia, Cherki, Ghezzal and them have had similar trajectories (though Fekir did deliver a bit)
