OFFICIAL FOOTY THREAD ⚽️: Rodri wins 2024 Ballon d’Or

[d3si]

This bum Mason Mount is about to bench EVERYBODY.

Well, you know if Tuchel was still here, Mount won't get benched, right?

 

[Coupé It]

Hope and faith? So be it

I'll take it

Oh God.

Look at these two.

 

[Bosa]

This one is gold

i’m not sure why lampard would take this job tbh

Why not? If he succeeds, he's a hero. If he flops, nothing changes because we all thought he was a trash manager before this. He has nothing to lose IMO

 

[MetalMario]

Oh sweet merciful fate. I didn't think about that. Geordies going international

 

[Coupé It]

Yea Lampard has nothing to lose

He could lose every game and still be a Chelsea hero.

lol i don’t see how that equates to him having nothing to lose. he still has a future career to look after regardless of how we feel about him.

It was the 5th highest women's game of all time and a lot of the biggest attendances ever have been in recent years



Great to see the women's game being jn great shape in advance of the WC this summer.

It ended up going to penalties after Brazil equalized in injury time, really hope the Finalissima's become a permanent thing every year after the continental cups. Been great to see after they canceled the confederations cup years back.

They held a moment of silence in honor of Pele before

Ummm, that wasn’t the first men’s finalissima…

Yea think they meant the current format played at Wembley. I'm happy they brought it back.

Still a shame they canceled the Confederations Cup in favor of an expanded Club World Cup that no one cares about

italian salaries are reported at net. so like 10m approx a year. still cheap compared to a lot of other big name players

 

[flyeed]

Was worried he’d wind up at City, we already have a LW. So don’t mind seeing that although it would have been cool to see him in the prem.

^if Qatar win the Man Utd bid, I don't see the benefit of continuing the PSG experiment.

probably not true but hilarious anyways
spanish media is just nasty

 

[8pm at msg]

Lamps getting the caretaker job just so Boehly can lowkey avoid additional criticism

I’m not really convinced but whatever I guess

 

[Bazooka]

**** ESPN comparing Benz/Modric to ******* Kelce

 

[flyeed]

**** ESPN comparing Benz/Modric to ****ing Kelce

Feels like a 2000s type headline, trying the clearly failed marketing approaches of old. Footy is marketed at its best when it’s presented as it is, it doesn’t need cheap bud light-esque dilution to attract fans.

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Idk

 

[vtotheinay]

haaland at right back incoming
