    As a neutral NBA fan
    Rooting for the Celtics is gross
    Kyrie is a nutter
    Don't mind the Pacers winning, but I don't think they are capable, it took them 7 to beat the decaying remains of the Knicks
    So yeah, go Wolves

    ANT reminds me a lot of Saka. Both are elite at very young ages and almost universally liked and respected by teammates and competitors alike. Both play their games with a level of joy rarely seen amongst peers and predecessors.

    ANT's trash-talk with a smile on his face is next-level though.

    Taxes?

    The player is paying income tax on their agents share/%

    As an American I wouldn't even dignify it with the term "public information"; it would assume some level of credibility. The news media in these parts have very little of that these days.

    Does Frank Lampard still qualify as young?

    Wow. Sure it didn’t go well for Poch there. That’s an understatement. But even Roman might’ve given him a bit more leash, no?

    Bohly must have someone up his sleeve. Though his football signings track record (players and managers) isn’t exactly stellar.

    Long may their dysfunction continue!

    That is good news for Arsenal fans. Chelsea were the fourth best team in the league this year.

    The manager market is so bad that Bayern are seriously considering the manager of a relegated EPL team. Who could Chelsea possibly get? Are they just gonna go full Brighton yet again and get De Zerbi?

    I'm curious what constitutes a "young manager"?
    Is that purely age?
    Managing experience?

    Usually age is when they say "young manager".

    But depends on the article. I have seen 52 described as a young manager.

    Manager salaries factor into PSR/FFP. Young manager sounds better to the fanbase than cheap manager. I think that might be what is happening, guess we will find out.

    Expecting Leverkusen v. Atalanta to be decent. Happened to take the day off of work to go golfing, so I'm glad I'll be able to see this one.

    Well, Atalanta with a goal 12 minutes in. Should be a an entertaining match, although I feel like I could just watch the last five and see Leverkusen score a few goals like they always do.

    Just tuned in a few mins ago to see Atalanta on P+, or perhaps it's really P+ on Atalanta. :rolleyes:

    First I saw the 2-0 score, then I saw who was in the lead. My surprise that Leverkusen were on the short end, quickly changed to thoughts that this team has been the masters of coming from behind, and late. However this is a final so that's a bit different. And if they go down 3-0 then that's perhaps a bridge too far.

    Wow. 3-0. Hattrick for Lookman. Has he been that good this season up until now? Who cares, he'll remember this night for the rest of his life. It might just be the highlight of his life.

    they’ll probably just sell their new manager to wall street and rent him back

    All three of their starting front line have been great this season.

    Stats across all competitions:

    Lookman - 15 goals & 8 assists
    Scamacca - 18 goals & 8 assists
    De Ketelaere - 14 goals & 9 assists

    Wonder if anyone will come in for Lookman after that performance.

    I guess he’s a striker not a left winger then?
