Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - Life and Death for South America, Pre-Season for Europe: The Club World Cup

[ScottyG]

You'll be willing to play for an FA that demands bribes before you get a NT call up? I'm 100% playing for France, England or Spain or whichever country gave me a fair chance

To each their own, but lukaku could win a world cup for Belgium and he would still get harassed probably..

I'm not gonna condemn someone who plays for that kinda team but it's just not something I would do

word

it's a question of whose love is real whose love do you value¿

they'll never love you for real in brussels

even with a world cup

you'd be crowned in kinshasa just for rocking with your people

i couldn't turn down a opportunity to feel that authentic energy supporting me

adidas and Ajax stay coming out with heat for kits.



Those 2nd and 3rd kit are

I don't even care for Ajax but these look clean.

 

[gho3st]

african players need to take it back to the crib

i understand getting money at big clubs

at least in that case the financial compensation is there to offset the racist abuse

but playing for the scumbags on the national level when you could go where your roots are planted¿

they got nikkas captured mentally

*

So they should not play for the country that nurtured them?

 

[010101]

So they should not play for the country that nurtured them?

the word nurture is implying some sort of authentic care ha

as i said i understand getting that money playing for the top tier leagues

but when it's time to play for the people i say go where the love is real

the countries left behind need them way way way more than the european nations

But said country had nothing to do with them becoming good at football tho except being where their parents are from....

the clubs get their moneys worth

they aren't spending money to develop footballers for anything other than profit

& where your roots are planted affects everything about you

africa definitely blessed us athletically & that is a big part of success on the pitch

That's why I always rocked with Prince Boateng, chose to play for Ghana while his brother played for Germany

Aubameyang playing for Gabon knowing he'll never get to a world cup but still represented

Right now I fukks heavy with Mane, Koulibaly and Naby Keita

I'll even throw in the breh Victor Wanyama repping Kenya

Bayern could become the first team ever to win every single game in a European Cup/Champions League campaign.

Don't jinx it, but the resume is kinda weak compared to Barca 2015 winner. They beat all Champions of Europe Leagues

Damn, that Arsenal away looks like someone's eyeball who's been up all night

Looks like Bellerin's eyes after hes smoked a couple blems

That's why I always rocked with Prince Boateng, chose to play for Ghana while his brother played for Germany

Aubameyang playing for Gabon knowing he'll never get to a world cup but still represented

Eh

KP Boateng playing for Ghana was more about politics than anything else

Hate to break it to you breh, but most Africans who played in foreign youth teams, before opting to play for their home nation, only did so after they realized there was zero or very little chance they get to play for the national team of that country...

Kevin Prince Boateng only joined Ghana black stars after he realized he saw he wasn't getting in that Germany team, and Ghana had a good chance to play in the world cup...he only used us to get world cup hype and refused to play in any African cup of nations tournament iirc

Keita, Koulibaly and Mane were born and raised in their respective countries. Any young African breh who has the juice at a young age and gets offered a NT call up for a foreign nation is choosing that 90% of the time

That's great and all, but they didn't go perfect.

10 wins is 10 wins, never been done before, not even in the days of the European Cup when only the champions of European leagues and the title holder qualified.

I remember Ghetto Prince got his Black Stars passport in 2010, retired in 2011. Made himself available in time for Brasil.
