2016 was 10 years ago.
Pokémon Go. Harambe.
Life was good.
And for Sporting fans?
It felt perfect.
Until Bryan Ruiz missed the easiest chance of his entire career.
A miss that didn’t just end a season,
it triggered one of the biggest butterfly effects in football history.

My wildcard for Fulham would be Hugo Oliveira. Plays a similar 4-2-3-1 system to Silva, Knows Fulham/MP & the players/staff so would bring the continuity required, he's done a great Job with Famalciao & if the club is looking for another project manager like McKenna would be then Hugo Oliveira would be available for a fraction of the price.

After correctly predicting 8 out of 18 places in Liga Portugal…
And then somehow going 0 out of 20 in the Premier League…
I decided to take on my biggest challenge yet:
Predicting the entire 2026 World Cup.

Joao Palhinha coming back is a massive coup for Sporting.
I think Hjulmand is still a better player, but Palhinha brings the defensive stability and leadership that Sporting have missed this season.
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Tottenham pull out of race for Palhinha as Sporting move ahead
Spurs’ buy option expires tomorrow, with the midfielder not planning to stay in London
Talks with Bayern to follow. Expected deal to be a loan with fixed fee and obligation to buy
