⚽️The Footy Thread: German Super Cup, International Champions Cup, Copa Libertadores

[BtownKj]

No real talk on this one but we need to continue with wins and this makes 3 in a row. We've played so poor at the beginning of this season that these wins are what we need right now to build confidence.

@ people of thought the black mailer on Los Blancos would step up in Ronnie’s absence. His mojo left him as soon as he got caught trying to get Valbuena with that mess...

Prime games today and the thread goes only three pages. All the favourites dropping points. I love it

Ajax

Like I said a couple of pages back, put Erik Ten Hag on the list for candidates for the Barca job. One of his early gigs was for Bayern’s reserves while Pep was there & he did well earning the praise from Pep.

I like what he did at Utrecht. They played really under him for the 2 yrs he was there. He’s got Ajax playing really really well. One of the most organized teams I’ve seen this campaign & very disciplined tactically.

Feel like Barca gonna continue the misery tomorrow especially since bart & CEO Oscar Grau gave the count full support this week.

Most Real fans didn’t expect him to. Then he and Bale were bagging goals in preseason and the first few matches of the season. Unfortunately he’s been back to his typical junkyard Benz form that we expected when the RM fan base was begging for a real goal scorer.

The next time we're trailing and Vazquez comes on instead of Mariano, I'm catching the first flight to Madrid, tired of hearing how he tracks back, his whole game is to feed off a goalscorer, we don't play 4-4-2 with, guy comes on a sub and just not a threat.

Benz shouldn't be starting every match, I'm not going into that anymore.

Due to injury & Kova leaving we can't find rest spots for Kroos & Modric

 

[Kimchi Papi]

The lack of goals in the last couple of games is kinda of a problem but 1 of those games was away at Sevilla which has always been difficult & today’s loss was away in russia against those cossack dogs 1-nil.

Those dogs won at home which is kinda supposed to happen. If it was like 3-nil I’d be worried but it wasn’t so I wouldn’t be too upset.

I was one of them. I backed Mou til the end, but this man really doesn't give a **** and he has got to go. #MouOUT

He's a vindictive, clueless, washed ****er!!

 

[haicheo]

Benz being a starter is a damn joke at this point. Atleast before you could argue that CR7 played better with Benz on the field....but now....

 

[yankeesking92]

The Barca game tomorrow can go either way, honestly, blow the core of the team up, a bunch of old men who belong in the washed thread here on NT.

All this time I thought his name was Jaden Sancho.

 

[vtotheinay]

Perhaps the board told pogs that mourinho would be on his way out

 

[rolaholic]

On point,glad people are finally starting to speak out in public. The sooner his position becomes even more untenable for Woody,the better. The ****show will continue as long as he's in charge

This feels..... familiar....

Even the local po po aren't backing the dotard -

Meanwhile, Greater Manchester Police have claimed they were not to blame for Manchester United’s traffic issues on Tuesday following criticism from Mourinho. United arrived late for their Champions League group game against Valencia at Old Trafford, forcing the kick-off to be delayed by five minutes to 8.05pm.

Mourinho stated that United were “refused” an escort by GMP, which led to their journey from the Lowry Hotel taking 45 minutes longer than usual. But GMP insisted they are no longer obliged to provide that service for every match and that the club were aware of the change in policy.

A statement from GMP said: “GMP has previously used police vehicles to accompany a team’s coach but after a review of our core policing responsibilities it was decided that we would no longer provide this service at every fixture. We consulted with the relevant football clubs over a period of months to allow them adequate time to plan ahead for their journeys to the stadium.”
