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)
It's those knee injuries that killed Nabil....

Rabiot I think we should have done once the Euros were done. I think he’s a baller.

Berge I haven’t watched enough of to speak about


You know ball. De Paul has been one of my fave players in the past 4-5 years.

Idk about this one. Rodri was a known quantity in La Liga. Villarreal and Atletico

ugarte + de paul :hubie:

Do you know how much of a whore you have to be for me to defend an ex-sp*d? I usually try and keep football and JBO mutually exclusive:





Tl:dr Social media whore ‘exposes’ Jenas for liking her stories yet she did the same to him. :mindblown:

If she was so offended that a married man liked her stories, why did she reciprocate it instead of blocking him?:hhh:
