Statistically, Luis Díaz is the signing of the summer, with 14 goals scored in all competitions since his move to Bayern Munich, more than any other new arrival to Europe's top five leagues 👀💫🇨🇴Hugo Ekitike takes the crown for the biggest summer impact in the Premier League,… pic.twitter.com/81O2EAjbSt— OneFootball (@OneFootball) January 15, 2026
Nobody said we need to play their tiki-taka, but it's about we learn from other club's discipline, fitness, diet, work ethic, etc.
Highlights from the Como v Milan match today. Paz isn’t at all shy when it comes to taking shots and we will benefit from that next season.
Yes, but just to play the devil's advocate here: these stats don't paint the full picture. Flick seemed to be quite quickly adored by his players, who immediately bought in on his ideas (and showed good execution on the pitch). He also stuck to his ideas, even though they are consistently exposed (e.g. high line) and he had to deal with injuries that cost them (and us too btw) a lot of points. Xabi never seemed to connect with a lot of the players, and it was clear that there was something boiling on the background during our early winstreak. There are more factors of course, but this was just an example of why the stats don't tell the full story. And yes, the club should back its managers (or do its damn homework prior to bringing them in), the players should do their damn job in a professional manner, and the club should strive to have (or return to) a culture of excellence instead of whatever it seems to have nowadays. But that's a slightly different topic.
I think what most of us are missing is that in a failed relationship, typically both sides played a role. We are so caught up on backing/blaming the players or the manager that we forget they both played a part in this. The players did not behave in a manner that you expect out of professionals The manager did not find a way to connect to the players and get them on board with his ideas
Zinedine Zidane is spotted as he's walking around the streets of Paris and this is what happens. 🇫🇷I'm sorry but this is abuse. 🤯 pic.twitter.com/85wTcuKaqq— Football Tweet ⚽ (@Footballtweet) January 16, 2026 ********ing cretins.
I wouldn't say it's abuse. Those are different people. More like annoying and never ending. That's just the price of being rich and famous I guess. You win some, you lose some.
This is how most middle aged men behave if we're honest, never taking no for an answer or reading social clues, never respecting space and being incredibly selfish. We've done a horrible job with education both at home and in school in the past few couple of decades. The late stage Gen Xers and Millenials are completely miseducated and entitled in average.
It was a more simple/safer world that we grew up in with a lot of opportunities. It tends to make you have more disregard for others. And thus we changed the world. A version of the "weak men create hard times" meme, but by power you actually mean conscience and awareness rather then strength.
And Gen Zs arent miseducated and entitled? Gimme a break. Or perhaps the new gens simply suffer from brain rot thru socmed. It has nothing to do with education or whatever. It's human nature, see a celebrity, flock over there. Even if just 5% of a populated area approach the celeb, it's still gonna look like he's being mobbed.
You're kind of overthinking it here. Prior generations went through wars and incredible amounts of hardship so they treated their kids like a prince, they should miss nothing and have everything. Those chubby little baldies in jeans and puffy jackets is what this kind of home education gave us.
