Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - 'We will not be there.' - Pep Fraudiola

[Premeditated]

Yeah, not buying it either.

The last time people said an English club signed a generational talent from the Bundesliga it was...






Havertz.

Bellingham could very well be a decent player but we need to see him play in a serious league first.

don't get me wrong, I think he's talented and has engine on him. and he's technical enough, atleast relatively compared to midfielders in this era, but I still don't know what he's exceptional or elite at. when I look at other young upcoming midfielders in his generation like Pedri, Caqueret, Tchou, Tonali, Gavi and even Camavinga, they're all elite at something. I think he's going to be a good to great box to box player midfielder, but generational. nope.

on another note, this picture

all the fans in the back except for that kid in the middle watching mesmerize by that celebration. probably gonna switch teams later this week

They're going out in the group stages just like every world champion from Europe since 98 has done
They started the tradition and will continue it

There is a good chance England could as well though if our retard manager continues to pick his favourites even if they are not playing for their clubs

The Hamraoui case is delving into an even weirder path It seems Diallo has nothing to do with it but now the thing is tied to... Eric Abidal

Apparently, Hamraoui's phone was bought by him and after the hit happened, one of the first thing Hamraoui did was to call Abi. Because of what the assaillants said to her, it seem that they were having an affair and that Abi's wife sent the hittas on Hamraoui

Pure telenovela

Welp. Seems like Diallo actually masterminded the thing ultimately and the Abidal thing (albeit true) was just a misdirection. Diallo was incarcerated last Friday and according to the investigation, she legit hated Hamraoui. Plenty of dms to friends where she openly voiced her jealousy towards her.

She was the one driving the vehicle purposedly slowly as if she was waiting for the hit to happen. The hitters talked to the police and stated that they were supposed to break Hamraoui's legs so she couldnt play against Real in order for Diallo to take her place and be the starter instead.

Gonna give this a watch. Love stuff like this.

I remember watching a show like this way back in the late 90s/early 2000s. I think it was on Palace when Routeledge was breaking through. I've always tried to find that show but it doesn't seem to exist online.

Fernandes exclusive: Marking the referee, being demanding and United's 'ghosts of the past'

Bruno also discusses Solskjaer's sacking, his personality on the pitch, the relationship with Ronaldo and demands from his kids for Encanto

theathletic.com

Game-like name dropping all over this interview

On pundits:

Fernandes notes British pundits usually speak about players from abroad needing “one or two years” to adapt to the Premier League, and cites the early comparisons between him and Arsenal’s £72million record signing Nicolas Pepe, who arrived from Lille in summer 2019.

“He (Pepe) had some bad games and everyone was saying, ‘He still has to adapt’,” says Fernandes, “but when Bruno was having a bad game, it was just because he was moaning or not focused on the game. For me, that was good, because it meant that I was ready and that’s why they were demanding so much from me.

On his complaining

“I play for Man United, so I know all the cameras are on our players, but everyone in the Premier League does that. At Crystal Palace, (Wilfried) Zaha is always moaning at the referee. It is because he gets fouled, so it is normal he moans at the referee. That’s normal! He wants his fouls and for the referee to give yellows (to opponents).

“Fernandinho, who was at Manchester City, was always moaning at the referee, and only kicking me! Bernardo (Silva), for example, who people see as a quiet person… he is one of the guys who is always talking to the referees. He probably does not do it in the intense way I do but I saw it in the national team, so I know.”
