@muxsin2003 Arteta is great at building a defensive structure but he's horrible at squad management. Did the same with Zubi this season, played him until his legs were gone. We didn't need MLS coming into the mid to be a savior of the season. He could have been gradually added to the fold
Drake and his camp was spying on our conversation @TheRIELGabe
Iceman is not quite If You're Reading This, but the dark energy, the super sized transitions etc are reminiscent of that
I knew I loved Marquinhos for a reason. Even without this beautiful ass gesture, one of my favorite defenders in the game.
He has a very seasoned and mature game.
🗣️| Marquinhos on Gabriel: “A day later, I received a message from him thanking me for that moment, for the support, for the hug, and for the words I'd shared with him. I told him it had been my greatest victory that night, and that the reaction it generated was great.
“My mum came over, proud of what I'd done, along with my wife, family and brothers. It was the best accolade I received that night.
“Players have to move on to the next challenge very quickly. I can't keep celebrating forever; we've got other things to do, and so does he.” [@ESPNFC] #afc
It's because the final was such an anti-climax. It finished 4-2, but Croatia were being destroyed at 4-1 and only a keeper mistake provided another goal but other than that they were completely out of their depth.
That match undid anything exciting that happened in the tourney
⚽💔 “Le robaron al mundo un gusto popular”
El director mexicano Alejandro González Iñárritu lanzó una fuerte crítica contra la organización del Mundial 2026:
«No siento ningún ambiente mundialero. Hay muy pocos partidos en el país, muy pocos partidos en México. Creo que el haber dispersado un Mundial en tres países me parece algo de avaricia de la mafia de la FIFA, cobró tres veces un Mundial.
El haber metido muchos más equipos ya hace una curaduría de calidad, el nivel va a bajar. El costo de los boletos me parece una grosería.
Mi padre, que no tenía dinero, recuerdo en el partido de Argentina famoso (2-1 en Cuartos de Final) contra Inglaterra en el gol de Maradona de "La Mano De Dios", yo fui a ese partido, y para que mi papá me haya invitado quiere decir que él podía pagar ese boleto.
O sea, antes había un acceso, pero ahorita el boleto más barato es de 10 mil pesos o 20 mil pesos, y si quieres llevar a tus hijos es una barbaridad. Le han quitado al mundo un gusto popular que se robaron, y ahora para verlo en la televisión tienes que pagar.
Antes era verdaderamente una celebración de un país orgulloso de ser el que invitaba al mundo, había alegría, un orgullo. Ahora, dividido en tres países, me parece una mala decisión de los que manejan el mundo de los corporativos».
