⚽️The Footy Thread: German Super Cup, International Champions Cup, Copa Libertadores

Felix is hella talented but he ain’t ready for a big jump yet... he needs to work on his conditioning, strength, & stamina to.

He’s proly going to be a winger & he ain’t got that “strengf” yet to hold off defenders...

Nice to see Flamenco Birdman get called up for the Seleçao

Marcelo got dropped...

 

[Verde Shuttles]

How have the young players not stepped up? Reguilon, a nobody to start the season, was man of the match for RM and has relegated Marcelo to the bench. An 18 year old Vinicius is leading the attack. Llorente deputized at an extremely high level for Casemiro before getting injured and allowing Casemiro to secure his place back. Ceballos could be better, but has been decent. Odriozola has also been decent when called upon. The only real disappointment has been Asensio.

Overall, it’s not really the young players that have been the problem for Real. That was more of an issue last season.

they don't watch RM, not like we're a great watch so I don't blame them.

lowkey Marcelo has always been meh with for Brazil, the he & Neymar just don't work well together, way too much free roaming from both of them, that can work when you play with somebody 60 games a year

Not to mention he's in poor form

I was gonna say, how is Brazil going to leave Newmar out of the Copa they're hosting

 

[Coupé It]

There is a dude named Weverton and a dude named Everton on Brasil’s squad.....


YUP... I’m DONE

Haha I watch y’all more than I’d like to admit

It’s actually been a great watch for me this season cause y’all have dropped so many points

Before today, I legit had no idea that Richarlison, who plays for Everton, is Brazilian.

you drink Mate? Yerba Mate has taken over football in Europe. I know Messi and Suarez do it since they’re both from that region - but now Ronaldo is drinking Mate because his bestie Dybala put him on... and these guys all drink it out of these Pimp looking cups

If you do, Is it really that good?

I’m so meh about that extension... Watch him go back to being meh now. That wage should be going to a young left back.

Having seen a handful of RM games this year i can say i love Vinicius. He is obviously a raw talent but he is fearless. In games where teams have dropped off and just tried to defend and counter against RM they rely heavy on Vini on the wing to just create something out of nothing. And he does it. I don't know if he could be a world beater or how his finishing and positioning will pan out...or health...but i can see him getting to a Raheem Sterling level. He seems to have more of an edge then some super skilled brazilian wingers of the past like Denilson or Robinho.

Speaking of badges.. feel like citeh really goofed up going back to their current one. That eagle/bird was sooooo bad ***

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Ranieri fired again

Kante, Mahrez & Vardy really worked some miracles + every top side was buns that season

Any info on Joao Felix from Benfica Coupé It

Dimarzio's reported that his agent has had meetings with both Manc clubs and Juve for his potential signature this summer this week. Keep seeing 100m+ figures thrown too,is he really that high a level prospect?

I’ve only watched him when he’s played against Porto or Sporting. So I can’t call it. I think he has potential, he’s skilled, he’s crafty, and his mind is right. But is he the next Ronnie? Is he worth 100 million? No

This isn’t on you, but in general - I’m tired of this “Next Ronnie” narrative, it’s been happening since Ronaldo was in his 20’s, since Nani came to United.

We’re talking about a winger who gets 50 goals a season, jumps 40 inches in the air, is 6’2, speed was and still kind of is ridiculous, right foot/left foot/header, etc... (we can go on).

For some of the Portuguese media and other media outlets saying he is the “next Ronaldo” is just stupid clickbait. And it’s putting way to much pressure on potential young Portuguese stars.

Ramos two game suspension in the CL, smh this has been his best run of games in while, fast forward me to june

I drink it quite often. It's a good alternative to coffee, especially if coffee upsets your stomach. It tastes good on its own, but tastes even better if you add a little sugar to it. Those "pimp cups" are called materos, they come in all sorts of materials, shapes, and sizes:

You drink it out of those cups? Because I want one those cups

So it’s as strong as caffeine but healthier? Does it give you some buzz? Is it a Whole Foods?

I wanna try

They need to clean the damn maggot infestations in the bathrooms first. I couldn't believe how disgusting the stadium looked when I went there a few months back. I know they're going to renovate it, but no need to be like "@#$@ it, we don't need to clean since we're upgrading anyway"

I honestly felt embarrassed taking my friends there, because I remember how the stadium used to be well kept not too long ago

I think Betis would’ve been the tougher opponent in the final (take nothing away from Valencia).
