Shout out to @Xehanort for the thread title. New thread before @Shay Z ruins another one with a shit thread title.
I've heared a rumour saying @Xehanort is in fact Wenger, anyone able to confirm or deny? In other news Jordi Alba has threatened to retire should VAR be a thing.
I'm a big Laker fan, too! Lived in Los Angeles for a year, and then inexplicably moved away. It's been a tough few years but I'm hopeful. Ingram has potential, hopefully Paul George and another free agent will come, and then with some luck we can contend again.
Hey best friend. Now why would anybody do that??? Hope you got paid brotha. Looks like we'll have to wait on PG for one more year which I am more than happy to do and get him for free. I don't know about you but i'm glad we traded Russell away, overrated and huge maturity issues and we got to dump one of those 2 poison contracts as well. Ingram will be legit but my boy is coming this evening to turn this whole thing around, Lonzo Ball yo. He's the real deal. Him and Ingram gonna turn this whole thing around. I am sooooo sick of all the losing. I ain't bout that life.
Im still angry with the fact we gave up on Dlo and packged him off with lopez. yah yah I get it we're trying to make cap room for pg and lebron, but still it feel like we got ripped off heavily. We can thank jim buss and mitch for those horrendous contracts they gave to deng and mozgov
Price of dumping that poison man. And in my opinion he was super overrated. Anyway, lets take this convo to the NSR.
If Barcelona get both Dembele and Verratti, that would be revolutionary for their club. Suarez Neymar Messi Dembele Verratti Busquets Alba Pique Umtiti Bellerin That would be quite impressive.
Verratti and Busquets holding an entire midfield down while 4 people twiddle their thumbs up front. Precious. I know people see Messi a lot like a 10, but he's as much of a 10 as Benzema. Some good moves in midfield don't make you a midfield player. Barcelona will pay a lot of money and sign good players. It's a given, but it's in our hand to stay better than them.
For me the most interesting question will be how Valverde will deal with the egos. He's only worked at clubs where he was incredibly respected, while at Barca it sort of just is his turn to get the job. He's been linked with the job since forever, and after they went through Martino and Luis Enrique, it was one of the only realistic options left.
Lets hope for a Asensio Mbappe Dembele forward line Dembele can grow for two more years at Dortmund and join his compatriot later
