OFFICIAL FOOTY THREAD ⚽️: Rodri wins 2024 Ballon d’Or

[rolaholic]

The Euro 2024 Groups are almost set now

 

[biggie62]

Poland is soo ***.

 

[rolaholic]

Kind of nuts that he's already basically an old head in that squad

Got 30 caps to his name and he's still just 20...

 

[LA Diggler]

1500 minutes played and everything this guy does it advertised.

Oh look Maino exhaled...

 

[rolaholic]

 

[AZwildcats]

Dang, that’s a rough way for Wales to miss the Euros

 

[fluid hips]

Brasil coach looks like an Emu

 

[rolaholic]

Kinda crazy on his first ever start

 

[rolaholic]

The group stages are officially official now

Group B should be fun

Also really cool to see countries like Albania and Georgia qualify

 

[haicheo]

Group B definitely looking like the toughest group

 

[rolaholic]

The same way that Wembanyama always comes through with instantly timeless quotes/soundbites, this kid does it with the photos

Always has some cold shots looking like a young Pélé

 

[worldbeefreeg]

If England was serious, they wouldn’t walk into this Euro’s with Southgate coaching.

 

[haicheo]

This is going to be real easy to edit n take out of context

Endrick is him. Imagine scoring on your first shot at the Bernabeu, your future club is RM, and it’s for the seleção. Oh and you just scored the winner against England at Wembley a few days ago.

Living out career mode dreams in real life.

I’m more excited to see his level headed mentality as he gains more and more fame.

Happy 80th birthday to Diana Ross, who infamously missed a penalty kick at the opening ceremony of the 1994 World Cup.

 

[Nike Jordan]

Guy basically just said Mexico is too fat and unathletic of a population

America is fat AF too.

So that made absolutely no sense to me.

It makes plenty of sense. The USMNT ain't **** either.

Yikes

Hopefully he can bounce back next season, can't remember actually seeing him in action for them at all this season.

 

[flyeed]

Maybe this is what he needs to remind the world to stop categorizing him as past it with Modric and that he’s still one of the best. Imo he’s RM’s most important midfielder this season.

 

[jape]

the young boy is ridiculous

 

[tomdiginson]

I can see that.

But why aren’t they developing talent? This has to be a grass roots issue.

I know Mexico doesn’t have Brasil or Argentina type of money/foundations.

But Mexico is not broke as people think. They have a decently sized economy on average with the rest of the world.

Mexico faces several challenges such as high crime rates, migration issues, inadequate infrastructure, and droughts. In terms of football, it is not a priority. The people who own the teams are also in charge of the Football Association, leading to conflicts of interest. The majority of the top players in the domestic leagues are from other countries, which indicates a lack of development in their youth programs. Additionally, most of the leading goal scorers and chance creators are also from other countries. A country cannot perform well internationally if all of their domestic players are mid.

Yikes

Hopefully he can bounce back next season, can't remember actually seeing him in action for them at all this season.

We dodged a bullet.
