🚨🐍 Joshua Kimmich: “We saw a snake yesterday, we were told it was venomous”.
“If you get bitten, you have to go to the hospital. I don't think you'll die, but it's certainly dangerous. I have the feeling that if you step on a snake like that, it can end badly”.
IT'S GAMEDAY‼⚽
Come out to Yellow Jacket Stadium tonight as No. 4 ranked @DSHSBoysSoccer hosts No. 8 St. Amant in a huge district game. Kickoff for Varsity is set for 6:00.
Let's go, Jackets!!!
@DaveSelini I like it. It helps teach the players off the ball (in possession) to find angles to receive the ball, and challenges the player on the ball to make quick decisions on how to play through pressure.
Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal is offering a record-breaking $1.1 BILLION to bring over Mbappé on a one-year deal 😱
Transfer fee to PSG would be $332M and his salary would be $776M
UNREAL. 🤯💰

@scuffedpod If all are healthy (which is a big “if”), it comes down to specific matchups & rotation. Asking any 3 midfields to play 90+ minutes 2-3 times over the course of 7-10 days is brutal. Having the 4 allows us to rotate all of them and plan who starts based on specific matchup
Christian Pulisic and Weston McKennie really played rock-paper-scissors to remind the Mexico fans of the dos-a-cero scoreline after their second goal 💀
@TaylorTwellman There was “progress”, but that’s not really a compliment toward Gregg, but more so an indictment on how bad it was before. But just because there was “progress” under Gregg does not mean he is the best candidate moving forward.
@TalkinTactics Especially when City’s LB or LCB have the ball. The space between Carvajal & Rudiger is begging for Gundo/KDB to run into. The gap there is just massive
@TalkinTactics Instead of asking a traditional defender to playing centrally in the Prem/UCL. Especially with the amount of possession city have, that fullback plays much more in the middle of the park than he does defending the flank
@TalkinTactics With Pep bringing one of his fullbacks into the middle to play in a double pivot, why do you think he does so with his defenders (stones/Walker/etc.) instead of a playing a CM at fullback? I’d think it would be far easier to have a Bernardo/Phillips/gundogan slide in at fullback
@StanUsmnt He had 2 of our best 3 chances, but other than those, he was pretty poor. He wasn’t strong enough on the ball and held it too long to play in the middle. Doesn’t mean he isn’t a talented player, but he probably should’ve been deployed in a wide role to allow him to adapt.
