What kind of unholy money makes an ex-La Liga and Premier League player leave Rio de Janeiro and to back to Birmingham brev

[Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano]

🚨🟣🔵 Aston Villa make contact with Flamengo to bring Emerson Royal back to the Premier League.

Talks ongoing as @ESPNBrasil reported as Brazilian RB can be the backup for Matty Cash, identified by #AVFC.

“Arguably on par” you go spend 15yrs constantly selling your best players, build a 60k+ stadium, & fill it out every week then lads. The “finished 17th” is nonsense in context of having also made CL money last season… AND CONSTANTLY SELLING OUT THE 3RD BIGGEST GROUND IN ENGLAND

[Tomo @twill_94]

It’s why football will slowly die out.

You’ve got Villa and Newcastle absolutely huge clubs and arguably on a par with Spurs, playing in Europe regularly not able to spend, but Spurs can finish x2 17th and spend what they want.

Same with Man United.

Broken system

Such a consistent b**ch. Fantastic player but moans about something stupid every time he loses against a defensive team. He was hardly punching through lines, picking up tempo, or getting players 1on1 out wide. Didnt do enough in midfield to get through Cape Verde’s block, simple

[Football Tweet ⚽ @Footballtweet]

🤬🇪🇸 Rodri's words after drawing with Cape Verde:

🗣️ "We knew it was a game of patience. THEY DROPPED BACK VERY QUICKLY. We couldn't put it in.

It's tough against such a physical and compact team. The positive thing is that THEY DIDN'T CREATE ANYTHING AGAINST US. THEY PLAY LIKE THAT IN THE END AND DON'T EVEN GET PAST THE MIDFIELD."

He might just be one of the most unlikable players in football after a statement like that. 😤

Pure shapeball. Jose ‘eritage. Joy to watch.

Una sola falta de Cabo Verde, Opta tiene datos de los mundiales desde Inglaterra 1966 y es el registro de faltas más bajo desde entonces.

Hay más data de España en @OptaJose

Es increíble la capacidad que tiene José Sanchís de hacer narraciones espectaculares.

Cómo se pone a decir "Quintana, Quintana" justo después de que Qatar acabe de empatar el partido a Suiza.

Cómo es capaz de hilar la narración con el gol.

El mejor narrador de la actualidad (con diferencia).

World Cup is so sick precisely because you get dudes who are stringing it out in 2nd divisions wherever in the world who, just for a day, become prime Figo when destiny beckons. What a finish.

This the kind of multi-layered reverse Uno that literally only Tottenham could suffer.

6yr extension and 2yr loan for £15m, or jog on. £30m for a top 3 CB prospect in Europe in a generationally awful market for the position is just rude lol.

[Tottenham Tiers @TottenhamTiers]

🚨 Brighton make £30m offer to sign Luka Vuskovic from #Tottenham.

Despite interest elsewhere, Croatia defender favours #BHAFC as best step for development + mutual trust with Hurzeler.

No let’s scrimp on the sofa in Manchester. This is success. You’d feel no difference to your pocket even if you’d benefit from the dopamine of something cool on TV. Becoming as lazy as Europe for the price of America. Backward hellhole Britain where we get nothing nice anymore :)

[Eddie Santiago & Romanov Enthusiast 🫓🪓 @johnnyvivas_]

Britain (the British) are now so poor a rounding error in a broadcaster budget is now serious topic of debate. So what if it costs a couple million. It’s the BBC. Is the country so weak as to not be able to afford to send a production to the US? Unironically internalised decline.

[Daniel Sugarman @Daniel_Sugarman]

I think the BBC is 100% right here. They've decided not to waste a staggering amount of money when they don't need to. And given that it's public money they're not wasting, I for one appreciate it, even as a football fan.

[Eddie Santiago & Romanov Enthusiast 🫓🪓 @johnnyvivas_]

Your tax money sponsored on nonsense anyway. What’s a few million spread across tens of millions of taxpayers? Don’t you want/get to enjoy it? Isn’t it cool? Past memories of watching cast members in Brazil, Russia etc? Don’t we ever want to be ambitious or achieve anything?
