Getting a red in this competition is wild.

Isak had also scored 17 league goals in a la liga season by 22 and 13 in 16 by 20 in the Eredivisie. That poor season prevented a bigger club from going in for him. Pedro is a little closer to Gordon (but more established). It’s a great profile fit for Howe and gambling on potential.

12 places for Europe, not 6

When a current senior player and former captain of a football club is publicly cavorting with a notorious bimbo while dressed like a clown, it's bound to attract comments on an internet forum devoted to fans of said club.

He’s got 28 goal contributions in the league across 2 seasons with 19 of those being goals in the league - and is 23 years old and a full Brazilian international. He had 6 goals in the Europa league 2 seasons ago for Brighton. Now I am actually a little annoyed here. So he’s scored 25 goals and has 9 assists across 2 seasons in all comps. How is that not an excellent return for someone who was 22-23 years of age across both seasons?

I wanted to say this when it was happening about DCL and I am gunna say it now when it's Tripps... there's some huge fucking irony in grown men posting on an Internet forum talking about how other men are dressed and chastising them and thinking there the fucking weirdo... get a fucking grip and grow up!

He’s really gonna’ help us break down low blocks. Float in those half spaces, tease defences away from their box whilst creating space for Isak, Gordon/Barnes etc. Should work exquisitely well with Tonali and Bruno.

Aye. @Deuce probably has geet loads of baby oil.

Last time we bought a 60 million striker who scored less than 5 open play goals the previous year it didn't go too bad mind. No idea if he's worth it cause I don't watch Brighton, but from his highlights he looks like a player who would work well linking with Isak. Anyway, just sign more Brazilians, they're good at football. Get Ederson in from Atalanta and Murillo from Forest too. Then sign even more.

Personally I like the coordinated cocktail dress and shorts combo. Sophisticated yet casual.

I haven't seen all the matches, most of Miami, most of Palmeiras then bits and bobs of Cheslea and PSG, but this definitely feels more like it. Feels like actual jeopardy with Bayern and the barbers in the group, so kind of a winner takes all, and the crowd is great, and a bit of a surprise current score - I saw Boca were 5/1 at Bet365 about an hour before kick off.

Just the 26th different coaching job for the old lad in charge of Boca. Heritage.

Go on, Boca. Header assisted by a header is an underrated goal type.

It’s a clearly a bullshit tournament but bar making it borderline free nee cunt is going to watch an awful lot of the games regardless of where they’re held unless it’s a global brand European club or a big Latin American club from Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and maybe Colombia who are well supported/have diaspora fans.

Hard Boc Stadium more like!

Gooooooooool gerrin.

I assume they're properly split by now, mind.

They had to fudge it to guarantee/allow the better/bigger teams in. If it was the previous last 4 of the CL, previous last 4 of the Libertadores etc it would make a modicum more sense. Boca kicking the shit out of Benfica here to make up for the quality difference. Lovely stuff. This is proper intercontinental football.

Boca kicking Benfica off the park.

I can't see Bruno or Tonali getting dropped, but equally, I can't see us signing a 60m player for him to sit on the bench. I think his skillet lends itself to getting the best out of the wingers and Isak, in particular, so if one had to make way itd be Big Joe, who'd become a key tactical sub in almost any scenario.

I looked this up today, for Europe who get 6 places last 3 champions league winners then the top 3 ranked teams. Similar for other places, where the continental champs get in, plus some other teams due to rankings. If you can be arsed its here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_FIFA_Club_World_Cup

I hope he stays for a long time, but have a sneaky feeling Isak could end up at Barca next summer.

Dunno like - seem to have found a sack of cash behind the sofa - plus if Diaz, Nunez go that will help to balance the books

Where does that leave big Joe?
