@itsnotovaaah Kinda doubt that tbh. Feel like Xabi would ideally use those to get the side more comfortable with the back 3. He’ll play against Leeds of course, but not Hull I’d say
@imbethmccoll@basedgizmo Tbf, as far as adult fandom goes HP grown-ups seem perfectly balanced and well-adjusted compared to whatever hellhole the State Wars ones spawned from haha
@basedgizmo@imbethmccoll Oh, I’m no fan of this TV show, and not really sure what the point is. I was more talking about the article asking if there is still an audience for HP - there definitely is! It’s a cultural cornerstone like the above mentioned now.
@tynted_glasses@caitiedelaney The 3rd film was directed by Alfonso Cuaron, and is a wonderful piece of filmmaking. Whichever journeyman director they get to do season 3 is not gonna come close to what he achieved
@caitiedelaney It’s gonna get really stupid in season 3 when some journeyman (no doubt competent) TV director has to go through being compared to Alfonso fuckin Cuaron
@ExpectedChelsea@m_mburner Truly think hiring Rosenior must have been a time those behind that project took a step back and thought ‘how the hell have we got here?’, and sought to start again. Worrying part is we still have the same directors who led us down that path
@sashedelic Plus Richarlison, Odobert & Bergvall, with Simons and Kulusevski to come back. No European football. Surely the squad is completely bloated? When are they all gonna get minutes?
@tristandross Feels like SDs are now so motivated by proving their worth to owners rather than improving the team they have to do the finance thing of intellectualising the process to such a degree that they’re now inventing spurious levels of complexity to just,like, sign Rayan Cherki for 35m
@Statford_Bridge Little lower than Santos, yeah? In which case a good deal - and still saving some Enzo dough for potentially an Alex Scott bid in Jan?
@TheBluesFeed As if we’re not gonna be fleeced in January, though. It’s probably resigned us to another season where CL qualification will be on a knife’s edge.
@ExpectedChelsea Tend to agree, with the huge caveat that we’ve spent 4 years saying ‘ok, this step back makes sense if we then take two steps forward next’, and then do the exact opposite. It’s still the same board that hired Rosenior, and brought in the dross of last summer.
@sum1saiditinnit Paul Mescal’s lack of masculinity the reason the CGI baboon’s looked utterly ridiculous. As punishment, freed from blame for the latest geriatric Ridley flop sitting pretty at 42% metacritic and negative box office return
