🚨 Lamine Yamal: “I miss people enjoying watching football.
I used to watch a lot of football and now it's HARD for me.
Because to watch a game I need players like NEYMAR, ISCO, BENZEMA, VINICIUS JR., CHERKI, players you LIKE to watch.
He doesn't have to be a Brazilian like Ronaldinho. I haven't seen Henry live, but I loved watching his comps.”
Virgil Van Dijk scoring in a World Cup at 34 years of age.
At this stage of their careers:
• Rio Ferdinand was playing at QPR.
• Nemanja Vidic had already retired.
• John Terry was 31 and had already played his last game for England.
Yet Van Dijk is still captaining club and country, competing at the highest level, and delivering on the biggest stage.
Longevity. Consistency. Leadership.
The greatest centre-back of his generation isn't a debate anymore.
It's Virgil Van Dijk 🐐
The World Cup kicks off.
The cameras are on the stadiums.
Meanwhile, Gaza is being BOMBED.
Israel completely LEVELED the home of Jamal Al Khamisi near Al Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al Balah.
The blast heavily damaged surrounding homes.
Do you know how much PROPAGANDA it takes to convince a whole country of people that their military exists solely to keep them safe, and not to keep people around the world under their rule by destroying their homes and infrastructure while stealing their resources?
Liverpool would of been delighted in recouping so much money for
Darwin Nunez from Saudi.
Any sale to a club in Europe, would of been considerably less.
They still made a loss on the original transfer, and to bring him back, even on a “free” requires a signing on fee, a payment to the agent and wages over a period over 4 years or so, maybe even higher than the first time around.
All this for a player, they deemed not good enough, hence, cutting their losses first time around, and allowing him to leave.
We should be looking forward, not backwards.
