OFFICIAL FOOTY THREAD ⚽️: 2024/25 European club season underway

[Verde Shuttles]

If you told me Barca would win a title because of their attack I would believe you but to 1-0 your way to a title is a crazy.

 

[haicheo]

And a SUS 1-0 above all else

Reese James sister rocking the #10 the victory over ManU womens puts them top of the league today

They don’t.

It’s just a bunch of 3rd generation Americans who are like a quarter-Italian that end up playing for the team.

Because they’re not good enough to make the US team.

Also, none of em speak fluent Italian

Damn. Apparently batigol wanted his legs cut off after retirement

Argentina legend Gabriel Batistuta once asked doctors to amputate his legs

Ask any football fan growing up in the 90s, and they’ll tell you that Gabriel Batistuta was pretty decent. The Argentinian legend once terrorised opposition defences for the likes of Fiorent…

why don't yall want to buy cancelo?

 

[Verde Shuttles]

The price is 70 million...

 

[jape]

The price is 70 million...

surely the price will go down this summer. the bridge has already been burned at city

I'm pretty sure we'll negotiate with them this summer. the 70m clause wasn't a fixed option. as far as I know we never ruled out buying him, it was just media making stories because he didn't start for 2 matches in a row

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Will they go down to 50?

 

[vtotheinay]

Will they go down to 50?

who knows. I hope we're able to lock him in. we'd be loaded at fullback with phonzy mazraoui and cancelo who can both play LB as well

You guys really have stupid depth right now but is it really better than the sextuple squad?

that's tough but been seeing this debate by everyone the last couple days. imo until this team wins all the trophies too I can't consider them above the sextuple squad

not sure how mane of all people is qualified to make that statement

Matthaus said it

Matthaus said it

also, to clarify, the quote is a little out of context. he said it's the best squad in bayern history in terms of depth cause of how many weapons we have on the bench, but he didn't say it's the best team of all time if that makes sense. everyone kinda ran with that snippet from the tweet above though

Yea I might agree with the overall point, you guys are legit stacked with quality at just about every position. The personnel available in defence in particular is probably the strongest I've ever seen at Bayern.

Starting XI wise it's hard to put them ahead of any of the European title winning squads we've seen yet but they've still got a pretty great shot at emulating them this year so we'll see.

Still waiting to see how it looks at full strength with a fully fit/healthy Mané in, could be scary...
