Question here.

Frank Rijkaard, now I'm not Mr Tactics and all that. But how was he never able to get at least 1 other bigish club manager job again after Barca?

I think between how his Barcelona reign ended and the media fall out of the breakup of his marriage, when he moved in with the nanny and then married her. He was most likely offered/spoken to about big jobs, but the reality is, he couldnt be phucked to be high profile anymore.

That Barca team became the 90s Cowboys near the end.

This season might be a loss, but man they got this right.



If we're going off #TheBrand, Arsenal are the biggest club around. Waviest jerseys and apparel, sexiest manager, coolest name, Saliba's IG Videos, Twitter followers, London.

Going against a Messi that scored 112 in 124 for Valverde and Ronaldo isn't an easy task breh.

:mjlol:

No one gives a phuck what he does in Ligue 1 except PSG fans and Neymar stans. If he isnt doing anything in the CL or WC then it doesnt matter. And prior to last season, his CL record at PSG is known for having a broken foot in b2b years missing games vs Real and United.

Now he has been unlucky with injuries with both Brasil and PSG and if he wasnt injured and took them to the finals in those years, he would of probably been player of the year.

Brazilians seem to be cursed with too much tekkers. Neymar had too much talent for him not to have made it to #1 footballer in the world status. Dude was basically Lebron as a kid.

East London
Moyes boys vs El Loco United

Attack vs defense.

If Leeds learn how to finish, it'll be a stomp for them or individual brilliance from West Ham will prevail, basically if they take their chances unlike on Saturday, then Leeds will probably ship goals. Their 2 main defenders are out and Meslier is hit or miss:yeshrug:


Got Bamford back in my FPL, so watch him miss an open goal.:stopitslime:

Haller has lost all his credentials. They need to send him to play in China.
