⚽️THE FOOTY THREAD: Leicester v City, Lyon v Brest, Troyes v PSG, Sandhausen v Leipzig, Wiesbaden v BVB

[Coupé It]

You have no idea. Main reason I want Timo to find his form at this point

I know it, I can feel it, I feel the tension

 

[josh4523]

Dang, missed the Chelski match

 

[d3si]

Did Kai just pull Kepa?

Kai be like take Timo off, not me bruv

 

[d3si]

You have no idea. Main reason I want Timo to find his form at this point

Agreed

It's really frustrating

I really hope he finds his fitness shot ASAP

 

[d3si]

Three points

Clean sheet

 

[sonoftony]

Another clean sheet for Tuchel

 

[d3si]

Another clean sheet for Tuchel

He keeps a clean sheet in each of his first five home PL game so far

 

[HNL HI]

I thought Everton were better than this, they must really miss James.

yeah, James being in and out of the lineup not helping but other guys as well like Mina, Allan, Doucoure.

they had a real good run of fitness early on and it just kind of tapered off and been kind of mid.

 

[rolaholic]

Been asking myself what Tom Davies actually does for years man...

Glorified weed carrier for his boy DCL at this point

Catching up on the thread today:

I'm sorry, but every time y'all talking bout "Bruno," I can only hear it in one tone -

 

[sonoftony]

Lingardihno

 

[MetalMario]

Lingardihno

Only such skill obtained by one like him can purposefully get a pk blocked just so his record says it was a real goal and not a PK

 

[AZwildcats]

Christensen has really leveled up lately

It must be either the new contract he's seeking for or the back three formation

Definitely the back 3, hides a lot of his flaws. Has done wonders for Rudiger too.

Although the attack still leaves a lot to be desired (own goal and a penalty today), I like the Conte-esque approach of fixing the defense first and foremost.

i though lampard ran a back 3

 

[sonoftony]

Bamford missed an easy sitter from Rafinha

 

[Coupé It]

Hugeeeeeeee dub for Inter. They’re really going to win Serie A

 

[AZwildcats]

We played a back 4 for most of the time under Lampard, with Silva and Zouma as the CB pairing. The move to the back 3 has opened the door for guys like Alonso to come back

 

[flyeed]

Some people are more emotional than others because their club lost against a bad PSG team 4-1.

So they’re looking for dubs elsewhere

Jape is the master of the moral victory. It must be a great feeling being as delusional as he is thinking every day brings another triumph.

Vini scuffed a shot? Win
Pep dub against Sheffield United? Win for jape
Mourinho L? Win for our serial winner
Former president in jail? Win
Random statistic nobody keeps track of that Messi leads Ronaldo in? Win+change of underwear

In all seriousness, I thought Vini would have progressed way more than he has. Asensio I understand, his knees have stunted his development, but Vini looks stagnant

 

[Coupé It]

Less than 24 hours to go until Porto vs Juve and I’m already nervous

 

[jape]

all i know is when you can't take the bantz you try to get personal.

vini isn't worth the 60 million you would pay for a teenager. well at least now he isn't.
him going straight to white madrid has stunted his progression. it was a bad decision for him.
when you play at the top all your mistakes and shortcomings get magnified. at a smaller club you don't get as harshly judged. but when you only have 13 goals in 101 appearances as a forward, that tends to happen. especially when ansu fati has the same number of goals as vini this year and he's been injured the whole szn

 

[8pm at msg]

Tuchel leaving squads on donut just proves Lamps didn't need Declan Rice, he needed proper tactics.

 

[Bantz Lord T]

Ah yes, the classic Ryan Tannehill conundrum. Did Real Madrid reach/overspend on Vini or do we need to give him more time?

I think they reached.
