Therein lies the problem, not the easiness of the chance rather the variety. Get the ball off the deck and up in the air for Big Chris Wood. Anything 6 foot and more. Lumberjack. Timberrrrrr!!!!!

Caicedo looking much more Moses in the midfield sans Fernandez. Coincidence?

:wink: @Africanus, the outcome couldn’t have been more exact. Stage 1. Complete. Plenty of pig left. Mancunian belly full to firm. Gorged on the cocktail sausages, full gammon on the grill. All the trimmings.

Postprandial dip. City have fallen right into the trap. :wink:

Re: 2 Italians, 2 Gemans, 1 Spaniard and 1 Greek all Walk Into a Bar

@Ssebo, the problem with debating with Generation TikTok is, the clock within the cortices does anything but tick or tock. The hands are frozen at whatever o’clock, at a comprehension age of 13 at best. A Peter Pan syndrome of sorts. If one looks beneath the layers of their argument, the familiar fo...

Re: Brazil's full list for Copa América 2024.

Most of those forwards are used to playing on the wings. If this team makes the WC, they might go all the way. No chance. Brazil are finished. Up against any of Europe’s elite, they’ll be smashed. Simply put, they’re not good enough at the pragmatic Eurocentric game they embrace. Would wager, hands...

Very, very strange occurrences take place behind the walls of officialdom. Were the legislation less limited many a scribe would be poisoned by their own ink.

Re: EPL Manager Accused of Abusing & Raping 15-year-old girls

@Ssebo, the “of profile” designation doesn’t imply a Balon D’Orer rather one recognisable enough to have star appeal to teens in the noughties. Not many would be intrigued by a potbellied, absent necked, polo shirt sporting Uncle, unlike their counterparts elsewhere. Likely attributes: - UK born or ...

Re: EPL Manager Accused of Abusing & Raping 15-year-old girls

Unlikely to be a cross-border case, narrowing down the suspects. Rewinding two decades, the accused would need to have been a person of profile, most likely a recognisable professional player at that point. A simple process of subtraction narrows it down even further. @Uncle Uganda, you’re well off ...

Re: Real Madrid vs Bayern

Corrupt for blowing the whistle having assumed the linesman competent to do his job? Why the furore over this incident and nothing over Nacho’s “interaction” with Kimmich. Players have been sent off for much less.

Will say it again, the Eastern bloccers seldom travel well. Georgiy Sudakov, Sudocrem or whatever he wants to call himself, can have all the talent in the world. England is somewhat isolating for the sons of Stalin. Another 100M outlay for sh*t tattoos and post-match pressers with subtitles. Two wor...

Re: RAFA BENITEZ, SACKED!!! (CELTA VIGO 2023-2024)

For all posterity Rafa will remain a “champions league winning manager”.

@Tx, the introduction of Kim didn’t yield the impact envisioned. Kimmich had been ridden raw and needed more than help. He needed respite. Granted PSG are unlike Madrid and Mbappe unlike Vinicius, but both shift the focus to the contralateral flank to open up the ipsi. At one point Real went full sc...

Had the ref not blown, ignored the linesman and allowed play to continue, would VAR not have intervened after the action?

Re: Real Madrid vs Bayern

For all the intricacies of the modern game, the master key remains, when it matters most, get the ball out wide to the whippet and have him fly at the fullback. As it was in the age of Andrei Kanchelskis, so it shall be henceforth. Yes, there’s some body work done on the inside, a few leading lefts ...
