Don't mind, I'm tired of everyone here talking about Barcelona and Real, this country needs a new story and a small Cinderella team winning the league would be great.

What a shower of trash Raphinha is, also Mamardashvili is absolute class.

He was so cold in front of goal. Too bad he never did that for Chelsea.

He did. Scored a great Hattrick for us vs stoke too. But then would go on to waste a gazillion chances right the next game moaning and botching around while patting his hair. Able but annoying player with a whiny brattitude

Nah once Morata is in a mental block he is there for ages.

Shame though because if he had a much stronger mentality to overcome these moments and spells his career would probably have been considerably better and even more successful. He definitely had the attributes to be a top top CF for me, particularly technically he was very very good. 

And taking that into considering, to be fair to him, he’s already had a pretty good career as it is. So it’s interesting to think what he could have done if he had been that bit wee more stronger mentally. 

But looking back he’s regularly scored goals everywhere he has been. 200+ career goals playing in Spain, Italy and England. Ended up playing for Real Madrid (two spells), Juventus(two spells), us and Atletico (two spells) on top of having been a regular with a good goal record at international level for Spain. Won 14 or 15 trophies at club level.

Regardless of what people think, he will look back and probably say “yes my career could of been better but I still had a good one.”

Jude Bellingham ‘muttered vile slur’ at Mason Greenwood during match

https://metro.co.uk/2024/02/02/jude-bellingham-reported-la-liga-mason-greenwood-slur-20211881/?ico=trending-post-strip_item_1

Getafe have reported Jude Bellingham to La Liga officials after the England midfielder allegedly called Mason Greenwood a ‘rapist’ during their match against Real Madrid on Thursday evening.

The incident occurred in Madrid’s 2-0 victory when Bellingham tackled Greenwood close to the touchline. After the ball went out of play, the television camera caught Bellingham saying a two-syllable word towards Greenwood, although the audio did not pick up exactly what the England midfielder said.

After the final whistle, Cadena SER reports that Getafe requested to the La Liga delegate at the game that Bellingham’s alleged slur is included in the official match report, which could then open an investigation into the incident.

Bellingham, if charged and found guilty by La Liga, could be handed a potential suspension as a result, although it remains unclear if officials will take action.

Thursday’s match was the first time Bellingham had faced Greenwood in the Spanish top flight since the Manchester United forward joined Getafe on loan in September.

Greenwood moved to Spain in the final hour of the summer transfer window after United held an internal investigation and concluded that the 22-year-old should restart his career elsewhere following his arrest in January 2022 for attempted rape, controlling behaviour and assault.

Greenwood had all charges against him dropped last February and United had considered reintegrating him back into the first team before the club received major backlash from supporters over the prospect of his return.

It’s understood that United are now open to selling Greenwood in order to raise funds for the summer transfer window.

When asked about Bellingham’s alleged slur towards Greenwood, former La Liga referee Iturralde Gonzalez told Spanish radio station Cadena SER: ‘You can be sanctioned if you really say that, but if Getafe wants to defend its player, what it can do is take the case to the Competition Committee.

‘The League will do what it has to do, but they can appear at the Competition Committee with those images and accuse him of what he said.’
