Too soon. Monaco seems to be s good spot for him right now. A few more years though...

 

[jape]

its hard to guage the Ligue one as well...

league is buns

 

[rolaholic]

Mbappe himself said he only wants to go to Real when he's in his prime

In more silly season news...

Marinella: "I think many big players will join Chelsea as Conte wants them to become credible contenders for the CL win."

Marinella: "Lukaku’s Chelsea move is almost a done deal and Alexis Sanchez will also play for them. Many others could follow.“ (Sky Italia)

Really hope this isn't true...dudes already running away with the league and they're looking to stock up significantly this summer :x

Can't even knock Chelsea's ambition though,apparently that's one of the things Conte's insisted on,getting big transfers to compete in Europe

 

[8pm at msg]

Must mean Bat shoe eye is on his way out too during the summer

 

[chadleroy]

I'm for it if true. Better than Alexis being at Arsenal smh. EPL hasn't had a legit CL contender in a while.

 

[big j 33]

Relieved and kind of surprised Spurs pulled out that win.

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Hazard Lukaku Sanchez is quite a trident

 

[jking0821]

is it certain that costa is leaving.

for me Costa > Lukaku for chelsea. Costa's hold up play . But then again maybe lukaku can do the same but it doesn't show as well at everton as it would for chelsea. Nice having Hazard and pedro in support over...morales and barkley? Davies and Barkley? whoever everton put out there

 

[Retroballer]

I wouldn't be shocked if Costa, Willian, Matic, Michy all leave.

Thats wild

 but it makes sense they addressing where they are "weakest" to compete at the highest level they know they need a higher caliber option on the wing besides Pedro and Willian. Also Costa's seems for sure to be gone so Lukaku seems like its been bound to happen for a while now especially with the reports that come out about Costa from time to time

 

[larryeastwood]

I thought Costa address these rumors with his celebration against Hull City. 2 leagues titles and a chance at a double and then Champions League next year? Why would he want to leave?


I was a big fan of Lukaku staying before Jose sent him to everton for good but Idk If I'm ready to see him as our main number 9 the whole season

I doubt it happens cause of our current administration but I'm so there if it happens. I personally think Agent Orange killed our chances of ever hosting a WC.

 

[northoaklandfc]

FIFA gonna get there bag bro getting in bed with a demagogue flirting with autocratic tendencies is not below that organization.

Did FIFA ever make that proposal for WC rotation by confederation official?

If so bid is a lock as only CAF, CONCACAF, and CONMEBOL would be eligible.

 

[Trey Bantz]

Considering that the 2022 World Cup is being hosted in a country that unabashedly employs slave labor, I don't think Donald Trump is a total deal breaker.

 

[moiety]

I meannn call me a homer but Citeh were just in the semi finals the year prior to this and lost 1-0 on agg to Real Madrid


And damn if we get the WC. Rose Bowl and/or Colisieum will for sure get some matches, hell i wouldnt be opposed traveling somewhere as well

 

[Black Lotus]

If it happens

trump gonna try to ban foreign sports...  

 

[Trey Bantz]

The United States has the best stadiums in the world, the pro of having a World Cup here is that nothing would have to be built.

The con is that our major cities are pretty far apart from one another.

Pretty sure Europe does

 

[blackmomo]

America doesn't have the best stadiums for football in the world. Y'all need to get over yourself lol

 

[northoaklandfc]

He said the best stadiums not best football specific stadiums.

Within the context of hosting a World Cup, the U.S. does have the best and most suitable venues of any country in the world.

It's not misguided American exceptionalism it's just facts. There's a reason why the attendance records set in 1994 still stand to this day.

All take a fat dump on ANYTHING Europe has to offer.

Miss me with history and tradition, these are state-of-the-art facilities that are unmatched.

Sorry, it's just true.

Get over it.
