We can definitely beat City in a one off game. Over two legs would be a different story.

FA cup semis weren't that long ago

Of course anything can happen in a Final. Chelsea is good defensively too. Maybe you’ll stop City from scoring also.

It’s crazy both of your teams have made it this far without a goal scorer.

I just feel like it may be PK’s in the final if you make it today. It’s not that bad of a game plan against City honestly.

Its considered 'secret' since the meetings and hearings are all behind closed doors and all material related to the case is being kept confidential...

Apparently fines and points deductions would be possible if the PL finds them in breach of it's rules

Something seems unusually cruel to leak this a day after City rightfully made the CL Final. Players don’t deserve that.

But I applaud the viciousness.

The NYT dropped it yesterday morning but yea the timing is definitely a little ruthless

 

[jape]

Not a PSG fan but honestly there should be a probe into this

There is no reason why a club with that much money couldn't clear the pitch at this level of competition before kick off

they are both playing on the same pitch though
how does it benefit them?

Psg had 0 shots. The pitch didn’t do that.

 

[jape]

I need a brutal 1-1 draw in to extra time today

 

[Coupé It]

Btw if the Glazer is walking around in the open like that, I know exactly where that is in Palm Beach.

If any Florida United fan wants to slap the **** out him, you’d be a legend. Guaranteed 50 million views. Maybe sonoftony

Verde Shuttles have you watched ZERO ZERO ZERO?

 

[Armada]

I would take him over lautaro and dybala.

Can't expect him to perform miracles when he doesn't get playing time to boost his confidence

Personally I find all 3 of them dudes overrated but that’s besides the point. Its not about performing miracles it’s just that icardi can’t effect the match in any other way unless it’s scoring a goal. Of course that’s extremely important but you not always gonna be able to score happens to the greatest of strikers but the difference between those other great strikers and icardi is that they can all still have an impact on the match even on the days they can’t find the back of the net. Icardi doesn’t.

Last year during quarantine, worth the watch

Watched episode 1 last night. Pretty good. You DEFINITELY get the Gomorrah vibe with the same Producers. I like how they take it to 3 different locations.

Plus he’s extremely slow, even if he makes a good run for the ball or to create space for other teammates - it’s wasted because defenders catch up quick.

He’ll be somewhere like Genoa or Fiorentina next year. Dude is done.

I’ll remember that, thanks.

not surprised to see him in those parts of PB. He needs hands to the face off that ponytail alone

This is great, but when Ronaldo is done I need to know why his FK game started falling off circa 2014 (I think), before he even hit 30. FK’s accuracy shouldn’t even go away with age if you train enough, they should get better.

Even tho he shut me up in 2018 vs Spain because I was praying he wasn’t going to take the FK - I need to know what happened.

 

[Verde Shuttles]

You gotta some type of crazy to even attempt that fk

So many times. The dramatic buildup, then straight into the wall

The commentator on that goal thought the same thing you did…..

I’ll never forget “there is no way Ronaldo is shooting from hereeeee……”

Circa 2014 is the right timeframe for when CR7 started missing more and more FK’s tho right? Or am I getting that wrong?
