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

[Kunty McPhuck]

But not every club has it’s ex players on huge international media platforms ripping into the current team.

That’s only going to intensify with their buddies running the club.

I'm sure they do, it just isn't in English. I watch many many other sports, and ex pros with an axe to grind happens, I've seen it both at individual and teams sports level.

Oh my god you won a title 4 days ago why are you still whining?

I'd explain what I meant but that'd be like talking thru a traffic cone. You're just gonna post the same rubbish over and over.

I don't care about them City players singing on a bus. Half them motherfukkers don't even speak English as a 1st language so there's a good chance they didn't even know what they were singing. This is only still a story because the City board started juelzing in a public statement instead of just apologizing and ending the story once and for all.

This is entirely not true.

This chant is a Year old, and no one complained. But now Victims FC started to complain and even Skysports and the BBC(basically LFC blogs at this point) picked it up.

But it's a non story because the FA found nothing wrong with the chant.



But it's OK, you guys can have the long range goals Premier League trophy, and put it up next to that BS you posted last year about the premier leagues unluckiest team.

Reminds me of the German 94 alt jersey

Love both the home and away German kits.

Looks like a Chinese knockoff. Or one of them fake football kits from Spain way back in the day.

What is wrong with that?

Y'all keep on or about whatever ex United player is linked with the job, but never give any names on who y'all would like or think should get the job.

Rui Costa retired as a player at Benfica and the very next day became the DoF and has been in the job ever since.

Personally, I feel the club should be looking for best in class candidates for that role not just any former player/club legend. If he happens to be a club legend then fair enough but the club is going through a tough enough time to keep making bad emotional decisions.

How didn't Fabinho make it?

How didn't Fabinho make it?

IMO that's not the problem. They got Casemiro and Fernandinho, they don't need another DM.

Outside of those two and Paqueta that midfield is highly suspect.

And it's still better than what Argentina can muster together

Arthur is certified breh

Might win the whole thing.....

But smh at Alves still getting called up.

How didn't Fabinho make it?

Tite’s quote

- O Fabinho vive um grande momento. Foi muito difícil a escolha. Qualquer uma escolha estaria bem feita. Não tem demérito, tem os três (Fabinho, Fernandinho e Casemiro) em altíssimo nível.

Fabinho is having a great moment. It was a difficult choice. Either way it would have been a good decision. Casemiro,Fernandinho, and Fabinho are playing at a high level, none of them are bad.

There’s already a lot of backlash for his picks, specifically choosing Fernandinho over Fabinho. The honeymoon is definitely over for Tite.

 

[phcitywarrior]

I think you drop Fernandihno for Fabinho just off the strength of what Lukaku did to him in the WC

Jokes aside, I do think Fabinho needs to be in that line up instead of Fernandihno.

Coutinho better hope for his own sake he balls out this summer or it could be curtains for him.

Neres, Paqueta, Arthur
