Just a normal guy who has a passion for football and wants to share it. Hoping to build a nice community. Not an expert but I´m trying my best. Real Madrid fan.

I used to go to a guy every Saturday. One time I went back to Egypt for 2 months and when I came back he hugged me.

The guy thought I died. When I moved I went to tell him goodbye.

Thinking the kebab man cares abt you is like an even lower version of thinking strippers are actually into you

@scrimthfc @FarsousDZ @imkikosuarez That doesn’t mean they don’t have a right to host it. How cab you build something there without these type of events. Also a lot countries can’t host the world cup as they lack the finances/infrastructure but they love football like Egypt for example

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

@FarsousDZ @scrimthfc @imkikosuarez No point in talking with him. It’s like talking to a rock.

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

@abdule_10 It’s great that some countries get to experience their first world cup and it has now been easier to qualify, but that also means that many games will be like this.

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

Would also add that South Africa isn’t good enough to use Mexico’s vulnerabilities. They play slow, when they should move faster and vice versa and their passing isn’t good. Whether that’s timing, placement or weight of the pass.

[ACHRAF @LamdarhriAchraf]

Both Mexico and South Africa show vulnerabilities off the ball.

Mexico leaves so much space down the center and South Africa shows signs of exploiting it through counters or through building wide, drag Mexico midfielders wide and then access the center.

But, South Africa is unable to find that continuity and go from the middle to the final third.

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

He’ll perform multiple roles for us. That’s what makes Bernardo Silva so great, his versatility

[Nel• @5peatNel]

So what position would Bernardo Silva play for Real Madrid ?

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

@janufooty Exactly it’s basically a 99% done deal. The HERE WE GO is for 100% done.

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

@footyhan Same with Mbappe for France imo

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

Oh shit it turned out this rumour is true

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨💣 BREAKING: Real Madrid sent official proposal to Bernardo Silva, advanced talks to try sign the midfielder.

Deal underway with Mourinho pushing and Real confident to anticipate Barça & Atlético.

He’s a priority for JM, as @jfelixdiaz reports.

A lot of people are saying France, but I can’t see them reaching 3 world cup finals in a row. Hope Brazil or Portugal win it.

[Moby @Mobyhaque1]

Who’s winning the World Cup guys? I don’t think there is any straight favourites and the way football has grown globally don’t write any team off. Fatigue and injuries will play a big part with schedule congestion.

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

The problem is that even more has happened

Should've been the stadium for the Final.

[Chris Sutton @chris_sutton73]

The amazing Estadio Azteca. What a view. A stadium steeped in history. Pele and Maradona both won World Cups here. The Hand of God goal… goal of the century… so many memories and now inside it feels really special ⚽️

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

Either you believe anything any journalist says or you're just pushing an agenda that you have.

We ain't signing Silva. Looking at the last 4 years does he fit the type of transfers we make? Gvardiol was linked with us since his Leipzig days. Your clubs is always mentioning us.

[Freeman @BigFrman]

This is the Barcelona obsession we are talking about. Whatever Barcelona want, we also want.

Real Madrid never wanted to sign Bernardo Silva initially. They are signing him just because Barcelona wanted him.

They rushed to sign Dumfries on a desperate 4-year deal for a 30-year-old player, just to make sure he doesn't end up at Barcelona.

The same way they want to sign Gvardiol after learning that Flick's preferred option is Gvardiol and not Bastoni or Schlotterbeck.

They submitted a €150m bid for Alvarez and publicly announced it (when do clubs start doing that?) just because they don't want him to end up at Barcelona and make the deal complicated.

Now they are pushing to sign Marc Cucurella just because Barcelona also wanted him.

This is how they signed Arda Güler and most of their legends. This is not normal; it is an acute obsession. Always wanting to block Barcelona by all possible means.

A supposed 'biggest club' doesn't have a project other than blocking its rival. This is an example of the theory of people who have forgotten themselves

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

don't always demand the ball to the feet and enter the box. In England Rashford and Gordon could do that, Rashford better though. Saka want the ball to his feet most of the times. Who also does that very well? Jude Bellingham, but yeah let's start the other fella.

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

When choosing who to start with you also need to look if they fit with each other. Kane likes to drop deep and he won't change that habit. That helps with having a +1 anywhere on the pitch, but happens when he receives the ball? 🔽

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

He'll need to combine in the small space with the others for example. At Bayern he has technical players around him like Diaz, Musiala, Gnabry, Kimmich etc. that help with that, or he passes it forward. For that you need runners, players that will run behind the defenders,

[Totalfootball @GawlyFady]

That same line is always said as a defense, when a player is overpriced. The term "value" isn't quite understood by a lot of people. He's not a 120M player

[LNobbins @LNobbins]

Anderson may not be ‘worth’ £120m as a player but that’s largely irrelevant.

The real question is whether he’s worth that much to City, given the context of past failed transfers and the context of our squad as a whole.

I’d say the answer is yes, and I imagine City will pay up.
