Best part of the game was Jenny Chiu doing post game interviews

She might be the most attractive person alive

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Our future RB, still doesn't address the issue for next season I presume.

Qatar and Serbia....and then whoever from UEFA's in that spot... 3rd place soon come

Canada getting rewarded for topping the group with Germany and Argentina would be cruel man

Hope that's not the case tomorrow

Happy for Pulisic and USMNT

Looks like Tuchel will ask for another winger for next season unless Harvey Vale is more than ready to play in a top tier level game

Sargent, Dike and Pepi need to improve hugely in the next six month

Berhalter is a heck of a recruiter. Hopefully he will not get exposed in Qatar badly. It'd be great if he goes with tactical flexibility where he can adjust his tactics to fit the strengths of players instead of finding the players to fit the system he chooses

If the Americans get the club, you may be told to do without.

I remember saying yearssss ago all Argentina really needed was a solid gk..

True

From what I see, if Boehly gets a nod to become the next owner of the club, he will probably appoint his own sporting director (highly skilled analysis since Boehly is a data-driven person) of the club like he and his group appointed their own POBO (hired Andrew Friedman from the Rays) for the Dodgers when they bought the team. Tuchel will likely have a full support from Boehly since they are believers in the balance of having veterans players and youth players

If the Ricketts are chosen, Tuchel will probably leave Unless the Ricketts decide to keep Marina which I doubt it. Tuchel is Marina's guy. Some people (PL executives and UK governments) want Marina to leave Chelsea immediately due to her history with her longtime boss Roman

I have no idea about him but age-wise he’s like 4 years out. I still have no idea who we should go for in that position though. I suspect RM are going to just ride out with Carv/LV next season especially if we get a Haaland or Tchouameni. I feel like LV has been the more tolerable of the two lately.

Champion of humanity

 

[luisfigo]

Usmnt deserves a group of death

 

[vtotheinay]

damn I guess they really are gonna let araujo walk. big mistake imo. I hope we jump in the race for him, we need another CB badly

 

[rolaholic]

Al-Khelaifi is one of the biggest 's in football man

The sanctimonious and self righteous shtick he's been on lately is absolutely nauseating

 

[noskey]

Usmnt deserves a group of death

You know we'll finish 2nd again based on a goal differential of 0 and still get to the knockouts

 

[rolaholic]

About time Belgium got dropped form that perch.

Mexico jumping up 3 spots is interesting though

[vtotheinay]

you got fooled by the ballsack sports account of bayern FT

 

[lovehateself]

Mexico jumping up 3 spots is interesting though

we've been buns throughout qualifying

 

[rolaholic]

Yea the FIFA rankings formula is nonsense

Germany not even being top 10 after getting the most points in qualifying in Europe is crazy

 

[Belgium]

Makes sense, idk how we were even up there for so long
Still above France somehow, which is absurd
