  1. lol yeah they were terrible as well so this will be an eyesore final of wannabes
  2. thank god that poor excuse of a football team is out into the loser cup. Pure Qatari propaganda toy. Maybe Brussels and Paris will not be ravaged again today. Let's hope this terrible precedent never be repeated.
  3. thank god we did not get Kounde, what an absolute waste of space, terrible defender.
  4. The bookies must be damn sure Southgate will stay then... How would this even work, we have him under a 5y contract. Would the FA give us 50m for him? No way we will let go off Potter before he leads us to 3 successive 9th place finishes.
  5. That's a tough one to give a fair verdict, cos Adeyemi only has 400mins in Bundesliga so far. For me Adeyemi he is not an out and out striker, rather an inside forward (being left footed). He is very fast in a light and elegant way, which makes him way more pleasing to look at than Moukoko. Technically Adeyemi is definitely more polished. Does a lot for the game, running off the ball, linking up with teammates well. But then he is also 34 months older. While Adeyemi's finishing is by no means bad he is streaky and misses a lot of chances game after game sometimes like Timo Werner, while with Moukoko you just know he is gonna score sooner or later even after a few terrible games. Being roughly the same height and slender frame, both have issues with the physical side of the game but for Moukoko it is less of a long term one due to his age. In short, while I think Adeyemi is and will always be the better, more technical, more well-rounded and versatile footballer, Moukoko will be the better pure striker.
  6. The closest thing you could compare Moukoko to is probably Batshuayi but with slightly better technique. Overall a decent package of athleticism and finishing, doing most of the basics right but struggling with some elementary things like holding up balls and reading of the game.IIf you dropped him into PL right now he would ultimately fail but he would also score quite few goals. He has done so at any level and unrelated to overall performance, one of the few natural finishers at this age. Overall, I think he has been hyped too much and ppl including him started believing it. The very reason we might get him is that he is actually not that crazy good yet but he has age on his side so if we take care in developing him he might become an above average striker but I do not see him as an some MBappe level wonder kid or becoming absolute world class anytime soon - at least not at this club.
  7. Can’t really see anything from the mechanism but it looks like he landed on his knee in an excessively rotated position. Could be an unhappy triad. Broja is a tough man. If he screams like that it must be brutal . Gutted for the lad. Hopefully he manages a full recovery
  8. we should just loan players out... this season is gonna end in disaster anyway so we should just loan as many players out as possible to keep them away from our terrible physios and injury curse smh
  9. same here. Did not even know we were playing today But lets not slit our wrists too soon here, injuries can rarely be conclusively assessed pitchside. Yet, this season already feels like another write-off.
  10. what's baffling for England is that Southgate is so spoiled for choice there. He could have started Mount for Henderson, which would have made the midfield far more dynamic and threatening while sacrificing none of the defensive prowess. Maguire was at fault for the giroud goal, Pickford for the tchouameni one. But ultimately the blame lies with Southgate.
  11. can't wait. What an abomination of a tournament this has been. Did not expect anything else. that's what happens when a mafia organisation and a corrupted slaving dynasty of tyrants hold a tournament in a desert shithole.
  12. down, but just bc of the number of minutes he played. Never had a fair chance really, terrible selections.
  13. On a different note, it is so disgusting how a large part of the Arabic world uses Morocco's run to push their anti-semitic, anti-LGBTQI, anti-human rights-propaganda encouraged by Qatar and Fifa. A dark stain on humanity. I so hope France puts a resounding end to this
  14. Was similar when they lost to Croatia and Italy. They led early on and failed to close the deal. Apart from the selection, the late subs and taking off Saka, the best player on the pitch, His match plan was too cowardly. Henderson to close off the the right side and having walker play deep they failed to exploit the acres of space behind mbappe.
  15. lol he has plenty of individual titles. Like 3 PL top scorers and wc golden boot. But it's a team sports and eam titles are more important On a different note, while England were significantly weakened by key injuries, Iinjuries to Pogba and Benzema were key to France. They looked like shit with those two in 2021 with their lack of intensity. Giroud adds so much to France. They still miss Kante but Tchouameni is a decent back up
  16. lol think about it, Kane will probably retire without a single title
  17. France's efficiency is scary, they are able to amp it up when they need which is the mark of champions. Hopefully they keep it and humiliate that terrible Morocco side It was. Ref completely lost control but at least it somewhat evened out today the ref rigged the game which was disgusting. Almost every wrong decision benefitted France. England have to move beyond kane, pickford, southgate and all the junk he carries with him. There is enough quality there but Southgate with his favouritism costs them
  18. Southgate lost this too, england with his terrible selection. Henderson, maguire, pickford all useless
  19. FT best game of the tourney purportedly but decided by the worst of refs very gutted this fraud robbed us of 30 more mins France were resilient, England wasteful so not completely undeserved
  20. final fk rashford into the stands game over
  21. 10 quid on the ref blowing whistle too early
  22. there is contact and there is illicit contact. france a clearly beneficiaries of this drugged ref
  23. sterling is just so weak England have lost the grip over this game despite 8mins added on, game is over. France will retain their title
  24. they are trying but its difficult when you get whacked every 2mins with the ref turing a blind eye
