Just a reminder that this account is where I mainly tweet about football, primary focus is Arsenal. You do not have to agree with my takes or analysis on here.
Im with the Americans on this one. Belgian FA are weak and cowards lool if a team is fully strengthened then its sparta lol the FA crying because Balogun is back is embarrassing.
🚨⚠️ OFFICIAL: Belgian Federation statement on Folarin Balogun red card case, saying they are “astonished”.
“The Royal Belgian Football Association (RBFA) is astonished by FIFA's decision to declare suspended United States player Folarin Balogun eligible to play in the USA–Belgium match on Monday, 6 July at 5:00 p.m. (Seattle time).
FIFA bases its decision on Article 27 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code.
This provision states that the FIFA Disciplinary Committee may decide to suspend the enforcement of a previously imposed disciplinary sanction.
However, Article 66.4 of the same FIFA Disciplinary Code clearly provides that a red card (sending-off) automatically results in a suspension for the team's next match, as has been the case for all previous red cards issued during this FIFA World Cup.
Furthermore, and irrespective of the above, the decision is in direct contradiction with the provisions of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Competition Regulations, as set out in Article 10.5:
"If a player or team official is sent off as a result of a direct or indirect red card (second caution), they will automatically be suspended from their team's subsequent match. In addition, further sanctions may be imposed.”
The automatic nature of such a suspension was also explicitly reaffirmed in FIFA World Cup 2026 Circular No. 16, which was distributed to all participating member associations on 12 May 2026.
The same rule is reiterated at every FIFA World Cup 2026 Match Coordination Meeting prior to each match and is included in all FIFA World Cup 2026 workshop presentations.
❗️In order to safeguard the legitimate rights of all participating teams and to protect the fundamental principles of fair play in our sport, both at this FIFA World Cup and at future editions of the tournament, the RBFA is investigating all potential options.”
Am I calling Trossard an Arsenal legend because of that one goal against West Ham? Yes, yes I am.
I know he also scored so many other big goals for us but that goal basically won us the title when it was drifting away from us. My forever raccoon.
Since the day he put an Arsenal shirt on he delivered. Always raising his level. Always breaking the expectations. A warrior and a big competitor that helped raised the standards of the club and achieve what we had in the past few years!
You will always be remembered! Glad you got your PL medal before leaving.
@levselects Thats because its true, we gotta let go of nostalgia because this kid is a beast and has been a beast for a long time. People need to accept it.
@FabrizioRomano Move on nigga God. This is like an ex who has a new chick but insists on being hung up on their cheating ex. Let it go man everyone has moved on with their new boos lmao if I was Alonso I would be embarrassed
