⚽️THE FOOTY THREAD: Leicester v City, Lyon v Brest, Troyes v PSG, Sandhausen v Leipzig, Wiesbaden v BVB

[Armada]

Yea the only real adjustment he will have to deal with is learn how to break down teams sitting ten deep and not having a ton of space to run Into often cause he’s gonna see that every weekend now outside of games here and there. But given his ability I got no doubt he will adjust

 

[Coupé It]

pep really cried and tried to say city have no money and theyre about to drop 200+ mill on 2 players

This is exactly what trips me out about Pep the most. Just embrace being the big bad wolf man, stop lying about things likes “we cannot afford”.

 

[Armada]

This match is peak MLS. 2 red cards for Montreal own for Atlanta now.
I don’t know why Josef was sent off there tho wanyama put his hands on his neck first. But I get it I guess he still responded wha too wild. Ref trying to keep the peace but tackles just flying in now

 

[jape]

i know it doesn't really register too much here but the barca women's team scored 17 goals today

Bruh... wut?!

 

[jape]

Bruh... wut?!

yeah they are fifa manager mode ridiculous.
their la liga record last szn was 33-1 with 167 goals for and 15 goals against.
not for nothing too. they won the treble.

 

[noskey]

I know people like to say Spain has the worst refs in the world, but I'd like to present Exhibit A for this mythbusters episode: Alan Chapman of MLS.

 

[fluid hips]

Waste of money

Pep is lowkey looking to get sacked so he can go back to Barcelona

 

[noskey]

**** this bald fraud of a ref Chapman.

not sure what’s funnier, Peps quote or you guys so concerned about it

In all the amateur footy I’ve seen, even in matches between extremely unbalanced squads I’ve never seen anything above 14 goals. Jesus christ

Cavani re-signing is looking like a godsend as time moves especially if Rom and Kane move like expected...

Not sure who else would be in the picture for the Android Viking with Mbappe heading to RM and Barca's finances.

Maybe PSG to replace Mbappe but I don't know if he really wants to play in Uber Eats.

All reports keep saying the club has already set aside funds to go all in for him next summer

Would be a dream reuniting him with his boy Sancho

 

[rolaholic]

Absolute facts

Gotta be one the most beloved athletes of all time, even folks who didn't really watch footy knew and rocked with Dinho

 

[Bosa]

 

[rolaholic]

Nah the Fofana tackle was disgusting





Would be an awful and straight red during a regular match but during preseason? Wish dude could get suspended

 

[iheartboost]

He’s got higher upside than Gundogan not to mention 5 years younger than him. Foden will still start and Bernardo looking for a move to Atletico so it makes sense. Rodri still gonna start regardless Grealish will only affect who plays at the 8 or maybe LW. Foden being so good on the wing as well it makes it easy for us to start both of them.

Is he worth a 100 mil nah but it is what it is

Letting Silva go is crazy. Dude is a work of art on the pitch, a motor horse. This is like letting Sané go

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Bernardo Silva hasn't been at his best for the past two seasons

[yankeesking92]

Flo has to be involved somehow someway

 

[mastamind89]

Don Carlo getting him back into shape

 

[Bantz Lord T]

Had a feeling this would happen when Messi kept delaying signing the extension

 

[iheartboost]

Bernardo Silva hasn't been at his best for the past two seasons

Huh?

Last season he was left out of the rotation for Foden, Foden excelled, and he's younger, so it made sense. The season before that (19/20) was arguably his best at City.
