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

Apparently ETH wants to play with two 8s, likely in a 433. Can definitely play in a 3 of Casemiro and Bruno

Mount is a decent player with an engine, if the fee makes sense it’s a good signing tbh

Mount can play 8 but he plays it in a weird way. He's a high energy runner but he prefers to get at the end of things. he doesnt really keep possession of the ball well. He's also an average passer. Atleast he's really good a set pieces. I dont really get the fit but I'll wait and see.

We just watched Xhaka look like a totally different player in the same position. So ya it might work

Also Mount has been shyt for about a season and a half. He fell out of form, then looked like he was playing bad on purpose to sabotage Potter and then it culminated with an injury.

But there is a fine line in doing that, on some occasions you can bounce back to your old form (Rashford) but you can also stay the mediocre player you were 'pretending' to be (Martial). So lets see if Mount crossed that point of no return

@African_brehda FM legend.

He denied the brotherhood


"I repeat, at 30, having the BEPF [Brevet d'Entraineur Professionnel de Football] or the Pro License is very complicated. I couldn't have done it before because I'm only the age that I am. Of course, diplomas are important and I'm not just a geek who played Football Manager. It's totally wrong."

Check his record after he made this statement in March. 2 wins from 10 games

"A decade after it was founded as a more conventional party critical of the European Union and integration, the far-right AfD is now firmly a part of the Germany political landscape. An opinion poll from German public broadcaster ZDF on Friday gave it [AFD] 17% of the national vote — enough to become the third-strongest party in the country. "

"German far-right extremism experts tell NBC News that the rise of the far-right is real and dangerous, with ex-military servicemen and active police officers with access to guns allegedly involved in a conspiratorial plot, while the popularity of the AfD has reshaped political thought and dragged centrist parties to the right."

Germany cracks down on far right with raids as hate crimes rise

“Politicians and the security apparatus have underestimated or downplayed the scale of the problem for decades,” one expert said.
