Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - RIP Diogo Jota

[frush11]

Yup. Prying Rodrygo from Real Madrid should be priority number 1

Injuries aside, we're gonna score goals. Its the lack of creation that was the real problem. We didnt create enough for our forwards.

Man those Maghrebi French talents are something - Cherki.

Here’s the thing - I know he is seen in Lyon as a bit ‘wild’, hence his fee being so low. So, is Pep going to be good for him? Can a well oiled system be good for him at this age, like it could have been for a Ben Arfa? OR is Pep going to suppress all that makes him so exciting - the free flowing style and playing on natural instincts?

I feel like Pep is going to be great for Cherki’s career - will probably allow him to learn how to be controlled and thus have a longer career. BUT it’s probably going to bad for football fans, in that all of what makes Cherki’s talents so rare become neutralized.

I think Pep will be great for Cherki.

It won’t be Arsenal

Is there a better destination that need and are willing to pay him?

Probably not, but that team if it exists will end up with him. Arsenal isn’t a serious club atm

What hasn't helped Cherki development is that Lyon hasn't been a settled environment for a few seasons now. Last time they had a coach for the full season was 21/22.

City
Chelsea
Utd

All move quickly and decisively with transfers

I mean January transfer window was very telling. The league was up for grabs and you sat there and did nothing.

Our coach is a politician and the board is cheap and wants to nickel and dime

Not the first time it’s happened either. I straight up do not trust this club to do anything properly anymore. We’ll wait until the other teams around us pass us and try to scramble again

He’s ain’t slick

Beyond the LGBT headline

He’s Serbian so you fukking know he’s on that right wing facist wave

Even the way he went at Onana was weird

 

[Ukbrotha]

Ange gone.

 

[ThrobbingHood]

But Arteta remains employed despite years of failure. How Sway?

 

[TGainz]

I respect it

Said the same about Gyokeres

Won a trophy with Tottenham Hotspur in recent times. Can’t take that away from him or Juande Ramos.
