    Hate being emotionally attached with players and the fact that ESR is never pinning down a first team spot in this team.

    Weirdly, given that Rubiales is clearly in the wrong, I think by precedent FIFA is supposed to be siding with him cuz the government trying to get him out is governmental intervention

    more a commentary against FIFA’s insistence against governmental intervention than in support of Rubiales cuz fuck him.

    How many points do you think Luton will get this season? Losing to Chelsea is really tragic, but to do it with only one real chance is very concerning.

      More worried about Sheffield tbh, the team really looks like a midtable Championship side. And they sold all their best players. Sure they conceded less than Luton so far, but they’ve played Palace and Forest compared to Luton’s Brighton and Chelsea.

    I just want to say, Heccy B will always have a special place in my heart not just as a footballer but as one of my favorite humans. The footballing community needs more people like him.

      I miss 2021-22 as a whole tbh. Expectations nonexistent, every single win felt good and like progress. Have a feeling Havertz will make that Xhaka role work soon enough, but it’ll take a while.

        I mean today we were alright but really not putting to foot on the gas, especially against a team like Fulham who usually run out of gas. Those misses today are incredibly frustrating.

    Richarlison had a 60 min stinker for Tottenham. They play a very fun and fluid style of football tho. I want the derby to happen already. It is going to be a battle.
