Thomas Tuchel saw Antonio Nusa getting so much joy on the right wing, gave 1 instruction to Reece James, moved him back to right back and completely nullified the threat. That late pair of blocks were immense.
These training session photos are feeding families.
Xabi, Quenda, Colwill, Estevao, Palmer, João Pedro, etc. and our Academy stars. I’m GASSED for this season. Anybody else?
Colwill, Estevao, João Pedro, and Palmer ALL with an entire summer off. Now, they will have an entire preseason with Xabi Alonso. I don’t think people realize how beneficial this is.
No stress.
If Jude gets a yellow, just get the big dog on the blower to Gianni to 'suspend’ it
Also, if he tackles like this - it’s definitely not a red card, or even a booking.
Shambles made of our sport, @FIFAcom.
Let me just make this clear, for our current team:
- I look at Alonso, I see a top manager
- I look at James, I see the best RB in the world
- I look at Colwill, I see a top CB
- I look at Hato, I see a top talent
- I look at Caicedo, I see one of the best DM’s in the world
- I look at Palmer, I see one of the best AM’s in the world
- I look at Estevao, I see a potentially generational talent
- I look at Pedro, I see one of the best ST’s in the world
For our signings (so far):
- I look at Palestra, I see one of the best RB/RWB’s last season who fit Alonso’s syste
- I look at Quenda, I see a hard working & talented LW/RW who fits Alonso’s system
Our transfer targets:
- I look at Chavarria, I see a decent backup LB/LWB, nothing more nothing less
- I look at Lacroix (potentially), I see another top CB & a perfect Colwill partner who fits Alonso’s system
- I look at Wharton, I see a tier 1 passer/ a player who complements Caicedo & fits Alonso’s system
Like I’m sorry if I look at those players and feel hope, idk what to tell you. I individually rate these guys and it’s pretty well documented, that doesn’t make me a “brown envelope” or a “BlueCo enabler”, I just rate people based off how I view them as footballs and potential partners and if I owned the club, some of these guys would’ve been signed ages ago. Also, if they signed for another club, I’d be devastated
I get the bad years, but everyone said “if we were a serious club, we’d sign Alonso”, so what’s changed? Same for these targets, you want me to hate on the guys signing these players I want? It would make me a massive hypocrite. I dislike them for what they’ve done, but I’m not a believer in things not being able to be fixed, it’s not who I am
We done well with the protests, they got us Alonso & potentially got us change, let’s just see what happens. The signs so far are promising, if it goes left, we’ll address it as it comes
You can stay skeptical, you can keep the pressure on them to sign these good players (I’m doing that too) but stop writing us (Chelsea, some of the players & Alonso) off before anything has even happened, we are meant to show SOME support at the bare minimum. Maybe I’m basing a lot of this off Alonso signing, but that’s a good thing to base it off if you ask me🤷🏻♂️
France has also won 5 games in a row, not a single controversy about fairness. EVERY Argentina’s game has ended with one controversy or the other. It’s not a coincidence
Fizeram um compilado de 4 minutos mostrando os lances em que a Argentina foi favorecida contra o Egito.
Simplesmente um escândalo mundial. Quanta sujeira envolvida. 🤢
