What's the difference though between a talent and a baller and rizz? Like maybe Eric Cantona had rizz but was he a baller? And if he did have rizz was it a product of some god-given natural talent or did it owe more to some of the films he watched and the books that he read?

Rather see him play for Sunderland than them men.. can't stand um

I don't think there's many players in the world that have Joelinton's particular skill set. He'd be incredibly hard to replace.

These are the ‘lads’ they are referring to! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_Lads_Alliance

That's the thing, right? You wanna swap one player for two. So, let's say we get £150m for Isak from Liverpool, and use that to buy two players. That's most of the money from Isak's sale gone just to replace him. Decent players cost over £60m each, plus, say, £120k a week in wages. That eats up most of the extra cash from the sale. I don't see any upside to selling Isak to Liverpool or any epl team, if we want to be a top-four team. None whatsoever. You are handing them a guaranteed 20 goal a season striker on top of the talent they have. Nah there is no upside here.

I like it. I like retro look shirts. I didn't like the shield at first but I reckon I could get past that. Of the 3, I think this is the best.

Yeh but these are all footballers. Like being fast and strong is a talent in tennis. It's not a technical talent but a talent nonetheless that helps with the game. When Bale ran off the pitch to run around that Barcelona player and scored - that was a goal that was only possible due to his insane physical talent. The overhead kick was still a display of talent but a different type. As are the freekicks he's scored. All a combination of incredible physical, technical, mental talents. I get it - in football we revere technical talents the most. Those are what I call "ballers". That Monaco winger looks a baller, Kudus is a baller. Elanga isn't. Doesn't mean they are not talented footballers.

Keep, he'll come good again after a good recharge in the coming weeks. Go with Barnes amd you'll see the difference by 10 games in

What about autofellatio?

Where the fucks he gonna play for them? Raphina getting shoved out the door? 🙃

Assume Guehi will be on the move then. I think we'll be in the mix, but there will be a decent amount of competition.

Cool

Don't lose all hope based upon a dhgate/backroom shitpic. It's not making my loins tingle but I'm not giving up.

All are talents that are honed. That ability to do tricks - mentally and physically - is a talent. Dancing is a talent. Running fast is a talent. Being strong is a talent.

I feel like if we were an animal we’d have been put out of our misery by now. We should all pitch in and get an Anton Chigurh tribute act to take out a few of the weaker fans

Ah man, had my heart set on the KI mockup.

Looks promising imo. Great to see the badge in full colour on an away kit for once. No beef with the shield.

My dad’s half West African so I hope it wasn’t that. Think we’d been linked to both at the time and I got them confused. Knowing me I probably doubled down without really checking.

Fuck that, gutting

We still need cover but I'm willing to explore the possibility.

I dont think we would necessarily need a 20-goal striker. One 15-goal striker, an extra 5 from RW and 5 from midfield and we've covered the goal contributions. When we sell Isak, hopefully for a lot of money, we will invest that in two or three players. We'll struggle to replace him but we will have an opportunity to make the squad stronger.

Just to contribute to an utterly pointless debate. Footballing talent is of a different character to athleticism. A talented athlete is not by right a talented footballer and a talented footballer is not by right a talented athlete.

Shield around the badge replicates this does it not? I picked this up in Magaluf before it was released over here. Felt like royalty walking through the airport when we got home.
