That’s gonna be on commentary bingo next year. It will be mentioned every damn match.

No but I’m trying to will it into existence

Bruce to Inter Miami?

had never seen this before

Because it’s always been a marketing thing along side a bit of a proxy war. PL is the worlds biggest billboard. They don’t care about making people in the west think they are wonderful.

Alcaraz created their goal against us iirc (Sulemana may have got the assist but he instigated the move)

It’s a pretty make or break transfer window this for Liverpool. They can’t really afford to get it wrong. It’s helped that they are only having to focus on one area of the team too. You look at their business under Klopp and there is very few misses and those that have been are more unlucky AOC with injuries etc.

Seems mad that Chelsea could sell all their players who are anything approaching a leadership figure. They are like some weird experiment of squad building from scratch.

Trips looks normal Bruno looks AI generated

wasn’t saying one should go there just that their ambition is likely curtailed without one

Didn’t need to revamp the training ground did we

To be fair Roca is 6th on that list and was rubbish. Free transfers are never free, you need to be careful about ending up with a player on inflated wages you can’t sell. If we don’t go for him I’m sure we’ll have our reasons.

It sort of feels like Spurs have hit their natural ceiling and their continued dining at the top table is more about staying there rather than actively competing for honours. Their managerial appointments seemed to be made with getting top four in mind rather than winning anything, but the egos of those coaches were based on trophies and thus was always going to end in tears. Levy could bet the house trying to compete but knows they would likely fall short so decides to temper the ambition each time. Business first. He’s a little bit like Ashley (albeit much more competitive) in that he’s perfectly happy just to exist in the top four and everything else is just a pipe dream. They need a sugar daddy to go any further most likely. Can’t see them replacing Kane with anyone close to his talents under their current policy.

Poor man’s Isak

Where’s the leadership in this Chelsea side? Previous managerial chaos was fine as you had a constant unit of Lampard, Terry, Cech and others there providing continuity and a winning culture. They seem set on selling longer serving or local players that could provide this (Kovacic and Mount). I still see a very expensive collection of players who have little hold to any more in terms of a club identity. Poch is a talented coach but it’s an absolute mess there. There seems to be an assumption that it will be a return to business as usual for Chelsea this season but it feels there is still the conditions there for more chaos. If you look at the other top sides (ourselves included, Spurs excluded) they all seem to have an actual identity and units of players who provide the link to the leadership and just as importantly the fan base. Maybe I’m wrong and this is always wishful thinking but I hope they continue to crash and burn.

The arrogance bleeds out of Eric Ten Seconds

Bayern Munich is a little bit of clown show at the moment mind, despite the title win.

Newcastle>Paris

Why is there three Serie A fixtures today despite it being the final round?

Was that Parker from Thunderbirds in the crowd

Every season there’s noises out of PSG that they’re a changed club and have learned from their mistakes. They then follow up with a signing like this.

The treble season is seen as the crowning achievement of SAF tenure at the club, it’s a massive thing if City match it.

Yeah he was the main offender in the NFT Crypto thread we had a while back. Glad it’s died a death before we brought anything out. I remember Amanda mentioning them in an early interview. They are still doing some mad Crypto related shit in Italy mind - bagging balls when they go out of play to give them to token holders and shit.

Tifo spent the first twenty minutes of their podcast comparing us to Klopps early seasons at Liverpool, there was some okay stuff there if you can get past the inane banter. Very complimentary about us in the main.
