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

[flyeed]

They must’ve forgot about their club values during the CL, huh?

Also strange they attacked his lack of generosity. As far as I remembered CR was known to for his philanthropy, especially for causes that affect children.

He’s also on record saying he’s never gotten tats because you can’t donate blood for a few months.

So basically it’d be safe bet that CR is more generous than the goons that wrote this up.

And there was also the story of when an Indonesian kid lost everything in a tsunami and Ronaldo financed him moving to Portugal and he eventually was in Sportling Lisbon’s youth teams.

Don't think Trey is nearly half as invested enough in United as Coupé is to put up a United centric poll

 

[Bantz Lord T]

Bantz Lord T next poll should be…

Will United make top 4 this season? Or Where will United finish?

I want to see this.

United still has more supporters in this thread than any other club, so I’d expect top 4 to win that poll

Old heads can remember a time when the NT footy thread was essentially just a Man U and Arsenal discussion forum. Seems like Coupé It has been feeling nostalgic with all this United talk lately

It was some bad times. They were all drowning in their delusion. You mention any other club and they would laugh, all the while their clubs were facing despair. Then the glory-hunting City fans came out of nowhere.

Yep, it was daily debates between the #WengerOut and #WengerIn camps. Meanwhile, the United fans hailed Moyes, LVG, and Mourinho until their hopes and dreams were crushed. Every time United and Arsenal played each other, the thread would gain 20-30 pages. It was the old NT Derby

 

[Bantz Lord T]

Speaking of Wenger…I think time has shown us that he was not the problem. He was practically a miracle worker for getting Arsenal in the top 4 all those years.

I know the constant reporting is just the state of media now but this is getting into "just calling to see if you called" territory for Ronaldo.

 

[Bantz Lord T]

Current poll expires 8/30 (one day before transfer deadline day). Next poll will likely depend on the hot discussion in here at the time. I’m going to try to diversify the topics, don’t want to make it too EPL-centric.

 

[vtotheinay]

next poll should be who had the best transfer window this summer

Great idea. This is the frontrunner unless something more interesting comes up

 

[rolaholic]

Damn man

He's had a nightmare with injuries/fitness issues for going on 2 years now

 

[noskey]

More interesting? "Which MLS team will win the playoffs? (Seattle Not Available)"

There you go.

 

[iheartboost]

Keep applying pressure on those clowns

 

[Coupé It]

6th

Fred. Mc Tominay. Maguire. Shaw. Martial. AWB....and the list goes on. Marketing FC isn't a serious club.

Best United fan in the thread. Him and Sinner.

Wait - so they could do it when they were up?

But can’t take it when they’re down?

Interesting.

They haven’t been up in a decade though

 

[rolaholic]

They haven’t been up in a decade though

Exactly

All you mentioned was while we've both been in purgatory for years

I have the same gut feeling I had years before they got into their first mess about this one. As much as Barca fans are celebrating (like they were back when they got Coutinho and Dembele) in real life you have to typically give up something to get something. And they’ve gotten a lot.

Maybe someone hit the nail on the head and they’re taking a big gamble that the super league pans out. But if it doesn’t…There’s a reason Tebas doesn’t seem thrilled despite a good Barca being good for him. Seems like those caps were put into place to save clubs for themselves. And now Barca could be in trouble trying to keep up with a post-double RM.

Man needs a statue outside the Emirates asap

 

[QU!K]

AFTV did Wenger wrong

 

[flyeed]

Arsene may have also done it to himself in some ways too being too much of a company man and not willing to just say Kroenke won’t give me the funds to compete. Seemed many fans were misdirected thinking funds were available and he just refused to spend.

 

[sonoftony]

Mickey Mouse FC with the insurance goal to bring em to the next round

I need a Sacramento upset later tonight

 

[Beans]

I’m good never seeing Ronnie play for us again.. too much circus. However, having the audacity to request being released from his contract is wild, almost as wild as Botox to your nuts

 

[Beans]

i honestly think 4th is there for the taking between United, Chelsea and arsenal.
