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

[Beans]

Yeah gonna need to upgrade on varane.. love the guy but he’s too slow in transition.

 

[AZwildcats]

Cucurella doing what he does best

 

[Verde Shuttles]

Tchouameni & Bellingham are everywhere

 

[Armada]

Almiron scoring again in Atlanta and doing his old trademark celebration he used to do with Josef

 

[LA Diggler]

Jude so special the closer he get to goal

 

[cs02132]

For all of Mudryk’s flaws, the raw pace is just unplayable

In the end I’m glad we got Trossard but I was with the Mudryk signing. Need that directness sometimes

 

[imasoleman18]

gonna take some time to get used to seeing a yellow shirt outside the box

 

[LA Diggler]

****, another good chance squandered

 

[jape]

yeah the united kits are fire

 

[haicheo]

Tchouameni has been a bully all first half, hope he finds his best level this season

 

[d3si]

Jackson. Just wow

So excited we have that kind of player in him on our squad

Cucurella doing what he does best

He was already on Almirion but chose to try to intercept the ball that wasn’t even close to him

Almiron scoring again in Atlanta and doing his old trademark celebration he used to do with Josef

That celebration was dope. Nice goal

USWNT vs Netherlands Women. Only hoping for an injury-free contest and Van bae Donk to show out.

I’m enjoying the match so far.

 

[jape]

has the match been this ugly the whole time?
madrid def missing benz up front but the midfield is shored up with the 4-4-2

 

[Verde Shuttles]

It's been a fun match to me especially considering it's pre season, I'm surprised how much more physically impressive we are than United they can't really keep up.

And the passing between midfielders has been really good.

Other than transitional attacks the game has been so poor

 

[Armada]

yeah the united kits are fire

I hate to admit it but they are a instant classic

 

[jape]

homie at the match said the announcer called united city instead and people wildin now lolol

 

[LA Diggler]

EtH and staff need some type of award for the work they’ve done with AWB on the ball. Looks so comfortable now

Hope Kobbie injury ain’t too serious. Looks like he’s going to be in the manager’s plans this season

 

[haicheo]

You can tell the team still looks for that 9 in the box, its going to be a while before they can stop thinking of KB9.

Even with Mbappe coming in he wouldnt be that 9 that they got accustomed to with Benz

 

[d3si]

Gallagher playing well. I hope he keeps it up

 

[noskey]

I’m enjoying the match so far.

Same except the US can't keep up with the Dutch women.

Has valverde been in a slump since wc ?

 

[haicheo]

Has valverde been in a slump since wc ?

He did have a drop off in performance much like the rest of the team, plus the issues with his unborn son and drama with him punching the Villareal dude in the mouth.

Seems to be turning it around though

 

[LA Diggler]

Much better

Good strike Garnacho
