[rolaholic]

Didnt see the Oranje squad posted yet

 

[rolaholic]

First player ever to be top scorer in 3 of the top 5 leagues and the first Juve league golden boot winner since Del Piero in 07/08





Swear they were rejecting 50-60m bids for him not that long ago



Not a bad start to his career after the ups and downs he's gone through so far

 

[rolaholic]

So many players reveal the hardest times of their careers happened under Mou man...

Hope he can bounce back next season, still super young

 

[rolaholic]

The squad gets announced tomorrow



Welp, 160M down the drain...

Can't blame Enrique, Ramos simply isnt fit, barely played in 2021.

Erica Garcia over is Nacho is nuts.

Eric Garcia played even less than Ramos

 

[Bosa]

spain aint doing shiiii smh

 

[flyeed]

Hazard has barely been fit and played like a Villarreal caliber player making RM money, and is happy/wants to prove himself at RM. I don’t see how anything other than a subsidized loan happens.

 

[whtascene]

Diego Llorente didn't even notice him making a single appearance for Leeds, had to look it up he only made 14 appearances all season and he made the squad.

 

[jape]

who wouldn't want aouar at that price?
i can see pep scooping him up and turning him in to a world beater

 

[rolaholic]

I'm sure the feeling is mutual

Also apparently Alaba will be announced next week

 

[jape]

do chelsea even want him?
i wouldn't be surprised if all of this hazard stuff is BS. the spanish media are known for fabricating storylines.
they should do a swap with juve for the therapist

 

[rolaholic]

Chelsea have alrewady moved on and are already stacked atv his position

Unless they wanna offload someone like Pulisic or Ziyech which I don't see happening soon.

Does sound like the media's trying to push him out the door since I'm sure Real wouldn't mind cutting ties and freeing up wage space.

I'm more interested in seeing what happens with Gareth McIlroy who can still play

Yea had them as a potential dark horse initially before the squad got announced but now I don't think so , think they'd be glad with getting passed the Rof16.

Might have England there as the dark horse instead now after the favorites like Portugal, Germany and France

This will always be that **** that makes your soul burn slow, brutal

Because of Ramos? He’s played 60 minutes in 5 months. He’s not ready for the euros.

I’m surprised Saul didn’t get a call up.
Nacho maybe too but I don’t think this squad is a surprise. I would’ve called up aspas too. But these players aren’t going t make or break this squad.

No don't think he'd have that kind of impact , thought it'd be a stronger squad though

No Aspas, Saul, Alberto, Nacho or Canales is a surprise.

The Ramos exclusion was definitely surprising too but I'd get it because of his lack of game time like Enrique said but on the same hand, he still picked Gracia who didn't play at all for Citeh so sounds weird

First tourney since '04 without him for La Roja

 

[Bantz Lord T]

I hate Ramos but you gotta call him

 

[rolaholic]

I would've picked Son ahead of Cavani, since he was great the entire season with Cavani moreso during the 2nd half, and included Shaw ahead of Rudiger but I agree with the rest

 

[Verde Shuttles]

He could have have called up him since Spain still has 2 open spots.

Garcia over Nacho just doesn't make any sense, there's also no depth at fullback spots, I guess you can play Marcos there, that CDM position between Busquets, Fabian & Rodri doesn't provide the most mobility.

 

[luisfigo]

in for the tomas roncero meltdown because no madrid players were called up.

 

[rolaholic]

He's not getting sacked anytime soon though after just taking over mid-season

 

[macbk]

Wasn't logged on at all yesterday but LFG LIVERPOOL absolutely amazing to have finished in 3rd given all of the circumstances we faced this season.

Crazy impressive too that Juve qualified as well.
