Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - RIP Diogo Jota

[MikelArteta]

he was consistently one of the worst players on the pitch for the first half of the season and has consistently been a liability since joining Arsenal. Not to mention that more than one manager that has gotten a result against us this season has said their strategy was specifically to press him because of his inability to make moves on the half turn.

I said minus a few miscues
Xhaka in the midfield wasnt bad , you could see some games where he didn't play (Liverpool) how he was missed

I feel like those miscues and bad performances far outweigh the decent performances he’s had this season. Xhaka wouldn’t start at any of the top 6 clubs so selling him is actually good business, IMO

Wanna win Serie A? Buy players from the Premier League.

Xhaka's game should be better suited for Serie A and he's only 28. Now if Roma can work that Italian transfer magic and get him on a 2 year loan with option to buy he would be a good signing

Wales boss and ex-Manchester United player Ryan Giggs will go on trial in January accused of headbutting his ex-girlfriend and controlling her.

Mr Giggs, 47, allegedly assaulted Kate Greville, 36, and caused her actual bodily harm at his home in Greater Manchester on 1 November last year.

He is also accused of controlling and coercive behaviour between December 2017 and November 2020.

He will face trial at Manchester Crown Court on 24 January.

Mr Giggs appeared at the court on Friday during a short hearing where he confirmed his identity and the date was set. He was told the trial could last three weeks.

He will also attend a plea and trial preparation hearing on 23 July.

Why haven't Wales sacked him yet?

Why haven't Wales sacked him yet?

Because not enough outside pressure has been applied to the Welsh FA. And I'm not sure if the Welsh FA want to fight a unfair dismissal claim if Shagger is found not guilty.

Neymar accused of sexual assault by a Nike employee.

The accusation is obviously very serious however the cynic in me suspects Nike used it as a convinient excuse to cut ties with Neymar early and not pay a penaly. They've gradually been reducing their investment in football over the last few years and this was probably a good opportunity for them to cut ties with one of their most expensive stars.
