Every time someone steps up and says who they are, the world becomes a better, more interesting place.

I'm sorry if your stepmother is a nympho.

@XQynten @wplazmp @chess24com @AlienWitty yeah...why question the world's best player...you probably are far behind skill-wise

@JmkKarim @ADNbarca10 @8bdrssss don't you think Negreira would at some point demand a little bit more money from this club that makes a billion every year because he had leverage that could ruin them?

@ImstillXbossy @khan_akhlaque_n @lezico8 he's allowed...but it's the stupidest thing he could do, because Messi will kill you and crush your dreams

@BouafifNour Xavi goes to the right and Kounde takes Baldes spot in the shadow realm

[Grisu @ChristophPlank]

@AlexTruica wait...is this the same guy you labelled a stupid transfer(for 25 mio.)?

The first picture shows the start of a pressing sequence I've seen a lot of people discussing lately. But the issue here was actually very simple, and it was fixed immediately.

Let me explain what happened in the first picture and how Flick adjusted it in the second.

Flick's pressing structure in this game was essentially Rapha and Adeyemi leading the press on the CBs, Lamine and Cancelo pressing the fullbacks, Olmo and Pedri picking up Feyenoord's double pivot, Rodri covering their CAM, while Kounde stayed deeper to form a back three with Cubarsi and Christensen against their front three.

The problem in the first picture was that Feyenoord's CAM, who was supposed to be covered by Rodri, kept dropping deep and moving wide.

Rodri couldn't simply abandon his position as the DM and follow him everywhere, so the CAM was able to find space and become the free player in the build-up.

After that sequence, Flick made a very simple adjustment: Rodri was instructed to leave his position and follow the CAM wherever he went.

That's exactly what happened in the second picture, and Rodri actually ended up winning the ball back himself.

So yes, there was a pressing issue, but it was a very simple one that was identified and fixed immediately.

There was really no need for all the overreaction.

Rolls Royce signing.

@_chrisishim That graphic isn't even accurate, liar

I'm seriously shocked by Espart's level at left-back. I genuinely thought this was just a desperate solution. I was ready to give him a free pass if he struggled, but he ended up playing the role like a natural left-back.

His understanding of the game is so impressive. He knew when to stay wide, when to move inside, when to support the buildup and when to adjust his position defensively. He didn't look like a player being forced to play left-back, he looked like a player who understood exactly what the position demanded.

Usually, that level of tactical intelligence comes with years of experience, so seeing it from a player his age is insane.

Espart definitely won Flick over, and I think he won the fans over with him.

Zach Gilford not having a single award for playing Matt Saracen is a CRIME against acting.

[Matt @Mahcus_Smaht]

Since plenty people are talking about Friday Night Lights and appreciating the acting

Zach Gilford in this episode is one of the best performances you will see on TV, and yes Kyle Chandler is also spectacular

@BoiesMy I don't get your point, why would he shadow his own writers room, he was there, no?

🚨🚨| BREAKING: The International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) names Lionel Messi — not Rodri — as the 𝐁𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐘𝐄𝐑 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. 🇦🇷🎖️

The IFFHS award contradicts FIFA's Golden Ball award, which went to Rodri. 😳

Good Morning Barça FC

@Barca_Archive Messi channeled Robert De Niro and decided to go full Taxi Driver on them

[J. 🇭🇷 @JosipFCB93]

We reached a point where Madrid fans and Messi haters are asking 8 Barcelona players to save football from Messi winning the World Cup, the trophy he already has in his collection.

What an ending to his career we got 😭
