@juankaguerom Mae claro que es una liga inferior pero que difícil consolidarse si luego de un partido malo contra el inter lo borraron. Contra la Colombia se vio bastante bien físicamente es tiene un gran nivel tiene que trabajar en sus enojos.

This has been weighing heavily on me, and I can’t stay quiet about it any longer.

I am 71 years old. I’ve been fortunate enough to attend five World Cups, starting in 1986. Those tournaments weren’t just events to me, they were life chapters. They were about connection, about culture, about standing shoulder to shoulder with people from every corner of the world, united by the game we love.

But what I’m seeing now breaks my heart.

The current dynamic pricing strategy for the upcoming World Cup feels completely detached from the very soul of football. Yes, this tournament is being played mostly in the United States, and yes, it’s a premium market. But football was never meant to be a luxury product reserved for the highest bidder. It belongs to the people. Always has. I looked back fondly at USA 94 and everything we did then to fill stadiums and bring the game to life for Americans who were just dipping their toes into the water of the beautiful game.

Right now, it feels like the average, passionate supporter, the ones who save for years, who travel across continents, who bring the color, the noise, the spirit, are being pushed out. Replaced by a model that prioritizes revenue over reality.
That’s a dangerous road because once you lose the authentic fan, you lose the essence of what makes the World Cup special.

I say this not just as a fan, but as someone who has spent a lifetime in and around the game. During my time at EA SPORTS, we stood shoulder to shoulder with FIFA when they needed it most. Our game kept millions of fans connected to football and to the World Cup when trust in the organization was at its lowest. We helped carry the flame.

Which is why this moment feels even more disappointing.

This may well be one of the last World Cups I have the chance to attend and I find myself wondering if the game I’ve loved all my life is slowly drifting away from people like me, and far more importantly, from the next generation who deserve to feel what I felt in 1986.

The World Cup should unite the world. Not divide it by price.

Football deserves better. And so do the fans. Come on @FIFAcom , sort this out… It’s not too late.

I was listening to The High Performance Podcast yesterday with Robert Lewandowski and he talked about managing players now in comparison to when he was young.

He said even in training, you can’t push young players too hard. You have to be careful because they won’t be close to you, yet you need to learn from them.

He said when he was breaking out as a young player, there were ways he handled things but you can’t do the same with young players now. You have to understand them because if you push too hard, they’ll turn their backs on you.

And that, I think is the modern manager’s biggest conundrum. Having the patience and understanding to accept and work with the current generation. You need them to be successful.

How do you balance the acts of what you understand as an older person to what young players want and how they want to be treated?

You can’t treat them the same way you were handled. They’ll not deliver. They don’t give a damn! They’re rich.

It’s one of the things that make the difference in managers. Learning to balance discipline with care. Not overplaying either of them. You are not too close and are not too distant.

We will see more and more of this, but we must understand that times are different and every older manager is seeing it happen in real time.

When you train different generations, or manage across generations, evolution is a constant.

🤯🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Con ustedes, el nuevo centro de entrenamiento del Stoke City, hoy jugando Championship. Sí, 2ª División de Inglaterra.

El costo total fue de 10 MILLONES DE LIBRAS y tardaron 15 meses en finalizarlo.

Un disparate total. 💰

Lo que puede pasar cuando se hace una pregunta inteligente e interesante en una rueda de prensa.

“Te gustaría ser mi entrenador asistente ?… Eres brillante. Responde Guardiola.

La semana pasada se hizo viral un video un niño, hincha de Wolverhampton, llorando después de que su padre se comiera todos los nuggets en pleno partido.

Hoy, el club compensó al pequeño y el padre quedó advertido.

Crracks.

Si este cartel lo hicieran el Real Madrid o Barça, sería portada mundial. Enhorabuena, @GranadaCF 👏♥️

Esencial la lección que este entrenador inglés, Joshua Paul, imparte a los chavales de su equipo. Y no menos esencial para nosotros, adultos —sobre todo en una red tan hostil como es X—.
