    Only got a few days left to make one. Check when Vini and Rodrygo threads were made. [emoji23]

    Gvardiol can be a starter alongside Rudiger; we can move Alaba out left.

    I reckon we will eventually move to Enzo or another creative midfielder with Bellingham going to PL.

    I prefer Enzo; him speaking Spanish will allow him to seamlessly integrate into the team.

    Yes because Kroos, Modric, Camavinga and Tchouameni are all native speakers with Spanish as their only language.

    No smartass, but English players like Owen, Bale, etc. have trouble assimilating into Spanish sides due to the difference in language.

    That's on them. Alaba started taking private Spanish lessons from the moment he had an agreement in Madrid, so about 3+ months of private classes.


    Might as well say it's too cols for Spanish players to succeed in the Premier league. Complete cliches at this point.

    I reckon English players abroad doesn't feel the need to learn the local language because they can get by using English. Dunno if Bellingham learnt German. Apparently, one of the toughest languages to learn.

    Bale loved living in Madrid though and he's an introvert so who knows about his Spanish skills. Mcmanaman was an exception during his playing days, but dude is as Anglophile as they come just like Owen.

    Despite all the negativity created around Beckham due to his global media star status, he was very balanced and a thorough professional. Prefer him anyday over Owen, Mcmanaman etc.

    I can't believe some are ready to discard Eder already, he deserves his place and personally i would rather have Eder than Rudiger, i know most here are sold on Rudiger, i still am not

    Agreed, i just have no interest in seeing him at left or right back

    I’m with you on Militao. Rather have him than Rudiger as well, but I respect Rudiger and am glad he is in the squad. Just don’t see how keeping those 3 CBs happy next season will work. They are all worthy of being starters.

    The culture also massively shifted. The upbringing of players now is more international, let's be honest, look at the generation of players Owen and Beckham came through and it's mostly guys like them.

    I think football players have by now seen the fact that they are basically traveling manual labor workers.

    We have no problem overpaying for talented players like Tchouameni, Endrick, Mbappe and Hazard but 50m more for Bellingham is where we draw the line?

    There's no shame in saying he just prefers to move to the PL. And it has nothing to do with culture. They just genuinely enjoy playing in their league. Imo, it is easier for English players who have played in the PL for many years to move out than for players who have never played there like Sancho and Bellingham.

    I don't think that's the problem either. You can't have them all.

    Gvard would be a great signing but I'm laughing at people saying he could be like Ramos at RB.

    Ramos was average at best at RB.

    I wonder if Vinicius Tobias should be promoted next season to the 1st team, to give Carvajal a rivalry for the spot.

    Cortegana reporting that Endrick has been called up by Brazil for the South American U-20 tournament in the early months of 2023. However, there is a good chance Palmeiras does not let him go as they want him to be the starter from the beginning of the season in the Brasileirão

    Unusual talent. Always played above 2 categories from his age. All ready scored as 16 years old with the first Palmeiras team 3 goals in 7 appearances.
    With Endrick signing, Probably Iker Bravo will be loaned


    ▫️ Considered one of the best talents in the world, the Brazilian striker is the youngest goalscorer in the history or Brasileirão and the youngest of Palmeiras history.
