    Arsenal 23-24: Watch this Space

    I thought the loss of Timber really showed here eventually. They weren’t quite as solid in the back since the international break. That’s made everything a lot more difficult.

    Matchweek 33 - In which I can’t come up with anything

    I would say they were fighting over the ball because it was 4-0 at the time. If it’s 1-0, they are deferring to Palmer, I’d guess.

    Matchweek 33 - In which I can’t come up with anything

    Everton is giving up their pad on the goal differential front. They better be careful here.

    Bronny declares for NBA draft

    Could he now get more money staying in college? I imagine there would be plenty of people offering a NIL deal to get a channel to Lebron.

    Week 30 - They return, now with Week 31 commentary

    In fairness to Villa, they were missing McGinn, Watkins and Ramsey. They started two guys in the midfield that are 20 and 21 and had a combined 2 starts between them.

    Curb Your Enthusiasm: US Youth National Teams, Prospect Hype, and Youth Development Thread [The DA is DEAD updates]

    In regards to Richards, how much of his struggles this past window come from playing in the DM role? Plus switching managers at club level, a lot is going on for him.

    USMNT Fall 2023 - Spring 2024: Meet the New Boss, Same as the Old Boss

    On that choppy field, I hope the stadiums with turf fields can come up with a better solution to switching to grass for these next two tournaments in the US. The ball just bounced all night long.

    Match Week 29/FA Cup Quarter Finals - and will The Rovers Return?

    Was he definitely onside? Had to step away just as the shot went wide.

    Yeah, but who's in 2nd? The ongoing Bundesliga thread

    Jenz getting a red card in the 28th minute for Wolfsburg made it easy sailing for Leverkusen today. 2-0 win.

    Wild Winter Fun- January 2024 Transfer Window

    Would be interesting how Bellingham reacts to Hakimi given he went after Greenwood.

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    What makes the comments odd to me is he was in the building last year. So saying turning the culture around and bringing back to respectability are odd ways to put things (if he was brand new they would make sense). I realize there’s sound bite pulling going on but some of the responses...

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    The Kelce situation isn’t remotely comparable. That was a heat of the moment incident. This was about preparation in the lead up to the game. A foundation of the team for over 15 years at that point. You can disagree, that’s fine, but I believe that players would’ve noticed and it would’ve...

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    What kind of issues would it caused in the locker room if players felt like Butler got special treatment? I think it’s a totally defensible move and it clearly didnt have that big of an impact on things given they won the Super Bowl the next year.

    The Special Ones (manager talk)

    The Klopp announcement made sense to me. Try to squeeze that extra one or two percent out of the players to send him out on top. Xavi is a club legend so I get that it allows for better planning. I’m very surprised Bayern kept Tuchel. They’ve been playing poor lately.

    Match Day Through Wednesday: A Liverpool Sandwich.

    Have to imagine this is the end of the line for Tuchel. Quite a week for Upamecano, getting sent off in the CL and again today.

    That was then: Celebrating what was

    I’d bet Reid approac is a lot closer to Belichick’s than say McDaniel wanting to be invited to hang out with his players. Ultimately, you have to have buy in at the top of the player food chain. Brady and other key Pats did that. Mahomes is doing that with Reid. I get Brady having enough but...

    Yeah, but who's in 2nd? The ongoing Bundesliga thread

    It will be interesting to see how the rest of the season plays out for Leverkusen. They are alive in the cup and Europa league too. Going to have a packed schedule coming up.
