Don't know why they got rid of Tuchel still tbh

I'm sure Ajax would gladly take back Bosz
 
BvB coach definitely getting fired

Despite using various formations Bosz keeps playing a high defensive line like he did with Ajax which he doesn't suit the center backs he has. He had the likes of Davidson Sanchez & Matthijs de Ligt who were fast & sure footed.

He also bizarrely uses Marc Bartra as a full back. I can't for the life of me understand this because he doesn't play well there & Bosz keeps playing him there...

When they use the 4-3-3, Bosz uses Julian Weigel higher up the pitch too & he looks like a fish out of water pushed up that high... Dortmund has also suffered injuries too.

Damn Gary Lineker doesn't like benzema either. :lol:

Alberto Moreno is getting savaged on the "internets". This one made me chuckle...

A lot of people make fun of Pools D, but if and when they buy a better backline its over. Although, buying a whole new backline in one season is far-fetched. They can do it in 2-3. The only question now is if they can keep their attack until then.
 
I'm watching the Sevilla vs Liverpool game off of the DVR... Yes the defense is suspect but Pool's midfield doesn't keep possession well at all. They emphasize counter attacks way too much. In addition to new CBs & full back to replace Moreno, Pool needs a thumper in the middle of the park to help retain possession. :smh:

Ya'll keep blaming Klopp but it's the goofy *ss Americans sitting on the dumb *ss transfer committee.

Look at his simple looking ***

American ownership in European footy stay swimming in mediocrity... United, Liverpool, Marseille, Roma... :smh:

Edit - Got damn, it's so bad I had to go look up the possession stat... No wonder Sevilla came back...

We do this every liverpool loss.. both committee and Klopp are too blame.
 


Wouldn't be surprised if the picture or story are fake but if either are real it's incredibly dope
 
Thoughts from the Madrid derby:
-Griezmann is most certainly emotionally and mentally checked out. He only has two domestic goals (one in CL), and hasn't even scored in an away competition for club. Be it the constant Manchester United links or preposterous recent Barca rumors, Atleti has a scoring problem on their home ground. Five goals at Estadio Wanda isn't going to threaten for the La Liga title.
-If Correa is going to draw starts from Simeone over Gameiro, which I have no qualms over, he must finish that first-half opening chance when in on goal. In fairness, Casilla did well to force Correa wide.
-Isco is the best player on Real Madrid right now. No hyperbole. He's the attacking engine and inspiration for our club currently. I've long criticized him for holding the ball too long and getting dispossessed far too often, but Isco has matured beyond what could be expected at just 25 years of age.
-That link-up play between CR7 and Kroos was beautiful to watch. Just the finish was lacking, which Kroos pushed his chip/flick wide.
-Casemiro was a little better in the derby. He's had a lackluster campaign. Whether it's tired legs or downright complacency, the growth we saw last year has evidently plateaued drastically.
 
Really enjoyed being able to watch some CL footy during my flight yesterday, much appreciated :hat
 
completely agree with the Isco comments champ
He is the creative force. He is so much fun to watch. Crazy to think they were going to let him walk. Props to him for sticking it out and proving he is one of the best players in the world.

Barca vs Juve today should be solid

It’s a shame James had to get cut loose but Isco was definitely the better of the 2 to keep.

Since Bale is on the chopping block, I wonder if they regret loaning James out now
 
They haven't been getting much hype for some reason but La Roja really should be a dark horse to win in Russia next summer. They've got class in just about every position on the pitch with depth to boot

I dont think they regret it as much as not having a quality striker to keep Benz on his toes
