Activate Another Lever and Still Lose to a Madrid Remontada - The Small Teams Thread

Had one good assist today, but this is hilarious.

Cooked AF. Don't even argue with me

 

Not "press resistant" whatever that new age term means

 

Conspiracy theories aside, Argentina kicked their way to that Copa American win too.

 

all this in one season.

 

Crazy how much United improved after ridding themselves of that Cristiano drama/distraction

 

Serie A has lost its mind. I swear its having some kind of mid life breakdown

 

Liverpool are on a downward spiral.

If Bellingham wants money he’ll go to City. If he wants to stay away from Spain then he’ll just go to the best and highest paying team in England which is City.

Weirdly they’ve not been linked to him at all but I suspect they’ll try to swoop in if they haven’t already. There isn’t a central mid star in that team that would jeopardise Bellingham’s progress, although players like Rodri and Gundogan have obviously been good performers.

 

Wouldn't rule out PSG if you're talking money.

 

City would have to ship out 1-2 mids to make room for Bellingham, as well as keep Cole Palmer developing. It’s a super crowded spot for playing time.

They will come for him with wages that will be massive. I think that’s where he lands ultimately.

 

There’s no team in the world that wouldn’t make room for Bellingham imo, he’s a legit baller and has a very good head on his shoulders.

Tchouameni, Camavinga, Valverde, Bellingham, Pedri, Foden and Wirtz (if the ACL injury hasn’t ruined him, he just returned for Leverkusen recently), these are midfielders that future teams can be built around.

We’ve got three of them, going for four! That’s crazy.

 

Even if it's about money that would be taking it a step too far IMO, unless he's only interested in the CL which could very well be the case, but would be a step down from where he is right now in terms of week in week out league competitiveness,

To be honest i don't know him but he looks to be very interested in his football, and his growth on the pitch (hence his move to Dortmund in the first place), Ligue 1 doesn't seem like a league that would interest him

 

No one expected Mbappe or Hakimi to make such a sideways move to PSG either but here we are.

Money talks.

Especially because we apparently have not one but two young studs capable of playing in that spot

 

120 for this player. Madness.

 

True
