Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - We are SO back, the Premier League returns!

[Yayo Toure]

Chelsea got the UCL

Kante bout remind y'all why he's was a back to back EPL champion with two different teams and a WC champion. The one man double pivot.

Chelsea already got City's card in the FA cup SF.

This man Tuchel done turned the Blues to german machine.

Zack Steffen won't be in goal if these teams meet in the final. Ferran Torres, Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling and Benjamin Mendy will also be on the bench if these teams meet in the champions league final.

That 1-0 FA cup win off a Steffen error is nothing to get gassed about.

 

[Yayo Toure]

they were literally in the finals last year

blow it up for what?

they just need another creative midfielder and some fullbacks.......... and a manager who has won something

They have too many players who get too high when they win and too low when things aren't going their way. When I saw them pop champagne after winning the quarter finals I knew this was a joke team. The capitulation over the two legs wasn't by accident. Herrera, Paredes, Di Maria, great players to have to get under your opponents skin but not the players to mount a comeback. They need more professionals like Marquinhos and Navas.

Others have posted but here is the actual message:



It basically reads: "Is Dennis really your quota/token black guy?"

Clearly the message was sent to him in error and he was rightfully fired but how can the story end here?

Clearly this message was intended for one of Aogo's collegues or bosses at Sky and the fact that Lehman was so comfortable to send it means they must have said some other fukk shyt to each other in the past.

Now obviously, any further investigation would be dependant on Lehman complying and revealing who it was meant for (which he probably won't do) but I hope that he (Aogo) presses the issue.

Dirty?

If this was Foden or Grealish, narrative would have been about the player being such a consumate professional by wanting to work on their skills even when away from the training ground.

"Whilst other players buy fancy cars and haircuts, Phil Foden eats and sleeps football "

Back to this for a moment, what did Sky expect to happen here?

Spurs weren’t? anyone thinking anything good will come from this is delusional

Spurs as a club historically are but this current squad aren't underdogs imo. Spurs are a top 4 team on paper with 3/4 top players who can play expansive football. He was a bad hire for the parts they have.

West Ham and Everton are bigger underdogs imo.

Not when the top 6 PL club is Spurs
Maybe the other 5 teams yeah but not Spurs sorry

I don't even want to defend these dudes but currently, it's a step down.

Premier League is the top dog in football. Bigger spotlight, bigger budgets, great facilities.

Well he has a history of scoring own goals.

 

[African_brehda]

And Walkers performance isn’t talked about enough. Singlehandedly made sure PSGs left side was nonexistent

 

[thatrapsfan]

Lehman has apologised and said he meant that, as ex-Germany defender Aogo was "very knowledgeable", he had helped increase the "quota".




Lehman is definitely an AFD voter.

That's English media in a nut she'll when it comes to black players.

So all the kneeling, social media blackout won't do anything if the people who report the news aren't taken to task and punished for the shyt they write about non white footballers.

Check what Keiron Dyer said about the English press calling him the King of Bling. He said Beckham. Lampard and Gerrard, spent way more money on flashy stuff but they never got reps for it.

 

[ThrobbingHood]

Lehman’s situation reminds me of this:


“Always got to have one colored in the team.”

Albeit, not as bad as Ron Atkinson’s “gaff” but that’s how they talk behind closed doors.

 

[The Guru]

Must have thought he was truly invincible

There's no racism in germany though,
