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

Vitesse has had absolutely nothing for Utrecht all day. Dominated at home.

Disappointing second leg, but good for Utrecht after they had some struggles earlier in the year to get into Europa.

I don't understand this. Issues with his touch and his goal-scoring ability in big games aside, he's better than the other forwards on the squad pretty clearly. Unless they're replacing him, this makes no sense. Going forward with Rashford starting would be silly.

Next season?

You know how it works in Spain/Real/Barca. It's fine for Real and Barca to hire inexperienced coaches/managers however you want to call it, but not Man United

Not advisable putting inexperienced coaches in charge of mediocre players breh.


But Barcas coach selection is like Milan, they just have Messi and more money

He offers nothing in the build up. That's only acceptable if the player is absolutely clinical in front of goal and he isn't.

Barca and Real have been doing it for years.

Juves current upward curve started under Conte, whose biggest job prior to that, was a 3.5 month spell at Atalanta.

Don Silvio only did that because he got lucky twice with Sacchi and Capello and tried to replicate that formula ever since. He never hired a big name winning coach in all his years there, biggest name is probably Fatih Terim (who won the EL the year before and he didn't see the year out with Milan) Capello and Sacchi went back a 2nd time but they already did the job. Ancelotti never won anything before Milan.

Probably just a rumor at this point, but it would make sense for both sides. PSG would solve their Mbappé/Neymar dilemma while getting a talented young player that could shine for them for years. It would probably be a good move for Dembele because I doubt he would have the same locker room issues at PSG


Barça gets their battle tested superstar back that’s already beloved by the team leaders. And Neymar gets to go back to where his heart is. Everybody benefits, but ego and pride probably won’t let it happen.

I want Neymar to come home, but not at the expense of Dembele. I think he'd have next at Barca if he managed to get his fitness together. I would be mad at a Coutinho/Neymar Swap.... And a little bit of change lol. Maybe Coutinho would of had s better season with a different manager, who knows.


A front three of Neymar-Messi-Dembele would be a nasty line up.

That Berlin derby next year. First time Union has been in the top division. I hate it had to be Stuttgart though

Look the more likely. I feel like they'll want it more. Chelsea are a shambles at the moment.

I don't understand it either. Its why I know Ole won't last at united.
