OFFICIAL FOOTY THREAD ⚽️: Spain wins 2024 Euro Cup and Argentina wins the Copa America

[d3si]

A funny read about the madness at Chelsea since Boehlys take over.

Geez, the Chelsea 22/23 season is so wild

Success isn't always what you see

These two were really holding the line all while the idiot security is chilling there having a chat.

 

[Beans]

Well season tickets for life

 

[Verde Shuttles]

At least one of them made it

 

[Coupé It]

At least one of them made it

Last I checked they were down like 40-32 at halftime or something.

RM really is a European basketball powerhouse.

I’ll give Flo credit there too. He cares about the team/sport.

 

[Coupé It]

Barça are good and care too.

Had to say that before they attack me.

If Adam Silver is really planning on a mid-season tournament for the NBA, he needs to get the EuroLeague involved

He’s too scared to do that.

The top Euroleague teams would beat at LEAST 1/4 of the NBA teams.

It’d make the league look bad


But it would be dope. I agree.

You guys are spitting facts in here. Both the NBA and Euro league would gain so much exposure from both leagues and generate so much money. Both fanbases can actually see different players and styles of play.

They should just cut the 82 games since it's so rare for players to do that in the modern game anymore. So much potential being wasted to evolve the sport.

Adam needs to deal with that fact that it will happen

If I'm Adams, I'd meet even with FIBA to plan a basketball champions league with the other leagues too

Nice graphic, here's another one for you since 2012

 

[moiety]

green one looks randomly loud.

for Ederson if I had to guess but the away kit is a bootleg Roma and I can’t wait to cop

 

[jape]

this is true. this city squad in particular doesn’t have super expensive players. grealish is the only ridiculous transfer.

This is foolishness

[Belgium]

Of course
1-1 just a few minutes into the 2nd half

 

[rolaholic]

This is foolishness

The lack of context makes it cherry picking

Their backups cost most than most teams starters , Rodri was the most expensive DM ever at the time and so was Ederson for GK's.

Main difference is also when they buy, they can afford to take their time with them or replace guys immediately if it doesn't work out while a lot of these other clubs are stuck for years with the same guys.

Even Grealish was able to be eased in slowly despite being the most expensive PL player ever, that's not the case anywhere else.

What he's saying sounds nice but they have a massive advantage in terms of recruitment when you actually look into it further. Only 1 other club in the world could've afforded Haalands wages + 3rd party/agent fees (about 200M) even with his low release clause at BVB, that's P$G.
