Neymar being Neymar#30
You are invited to a dinner in the saudi embassy tonight.
The funny thing is these guys are the top echelon of paid players that no amount of money or things can get them to hand something over. Especially something as important as a shirt number.
Apparently Neymar offered him the number and Messi turned him down.
And like, the greatest sin of all is, is any of this that interesting to watch?
I'm invested in it because I both want to see Poch do well and also am certain on some level that there will be early struggles that Poch will be sacked for.
But the question of whether this team will win the Champions League, ultimately who cares? There's no romance in that competition anymore, there really isn't.
The Qatar vs Abu Dhabi challenge cup.
Or maybe Chelsea or maybe Bayern, we've seen it all before. We've seen these superclubs all play each other a million times by now, it's like comic book movies at this point. And their grip on the global superstars is getting tighter not looser, it's all just the same bland tasteless goo.
And the structure of the competition is such that even if someone refreshing and new bumbles in the way we did, it all ultimately signifies very little.
The Champions League can't generate a story like the Leicester miracle, nor can it be a platform for excellence like City's 100 points.
And it doesn't present interesting matchups across Europe's many nations anymore, really, which was the whole point in the first place.
It stinks I tells ya.
Growing up PSG were always a nothing club only notable for their rugby stadium. The dirty oil money has completely ruined the sport. Shame on UEFA and FIFA for getting into bed with those immoral backwards cunts.
I used to play cb at school. I do remember taking great pride in heading one out of the sky. However, even then I knew it wasn't great for me, used to feel the ball vibrate through the brain./www.itasportpress.it/assets/uploads/202107/8b199a77a7d5cfd0a7e3cdbf11cbaf8a.png)
I see, that UEFA are putting together a 6 billion rescue plan. The fact that "rescue" is in there is taking the piss! Regardless of whether that's UEFA's or the media's wording; the concept is the same. We're not talking about rescuing an economic eco system necessary for people to afford food and cloth for their kids. We're talking about rescuing a system allowing absolute cunts like Aubameyang to buy 20 super cars. Absolutely taking the piss!
I'm not particularly (economically) liberal, and whether I am doesn't matter at all. If you're paying high 5 and 6 figures weekly to multiple employees, and you can't outperform a downswing (even a big, pandemic-related one), then you don't fucking need rescuing. The business model is fatally flawed and needs to die it's natural death. Like fuck they need rescuing! Every single club, or very close to it, has continued to hand out 5 and 6 figures to new signings and in extensions, so let it die if needs be.
I love our fans, Tottenham, and the spectacle of top, top athletes excelling at football. In that order. But fuck me, I'm on the very, very brink of falling out of love with this beautiful sport.

Social media team at Everton massively failing.
The fact that modern football has social media teams is fucking tragic.
30 was his first shirt number at Barca, wore it for about 2 years. So this would probably be his last.#30
Makes sense now
I think we are going to fall out. I like Max Rushden and I think football weekly has improved under his watch
And what's worse is that it was posted by Rushden - worst plastic fan ever.
