Guler va-t-il toujours être le premier joueur offensif du Real à sortir pour ne pas bousculer les statuts du trio de devant ?

[Valverde (fan) @Valv4rdeRMFC]

@ShimmyRmcf I thought Jose had balls to sub off Vini and Mbappe? Stupid coach subbed out Guler when he was good

🤍 Aurélien Tchouaméni applauded Fede Valverde when he was subbed off.

🚨 Trent: “Not called up for World Cup? I’ll be honest, I was full of hope.

When the call came, I was at home in Madrid. When I put the phone down, I was properly gutted. ABSOLUTELY GUTTED.

I had made NO plans for my summer because I hoped I’d be in the squad.

Until I retire, I’m still an England player, whether I’m selected or not. There's no bigger honour.” @DailyMirror

🚨 Trent on Diogo Jota’s death:

“It was a VERY, VERY DIFFICULT time. We spoke every day. I was injured a couple of times when he was and we were doing our training to get back fit together.

So we would always, you know, have different competitions between ourselves. Those are the kind of memories that I'll hold close to me.

He was just a really good guy. Like he was very honest. That's one of the best attributes that anybody can have. He was hardworking. He loved what he did, and was a massive family man.” @DailyMirror 🙏

Lionel Messi’s letter for his father. ❤️‍🩹

Dad, I still can’t believe that you’ve gone. I don’t fall, or rather, I don’t want to fall. It’s very hard for me to imagine that I’m not going to see you anymore, that we’re not going to talk anymore. I know you were suffering and that it’s for the best, but you left too soon. We still had a lot left to enjoy together.

You asked me so much to play in the last World Cup, and it was in the days just before it started that you got the worst. It was the first time you weren’t going to be at a tournament, but Mom told me that you were going to get better and that you’d be well enough to travel. I told you we were going to reach the final so you could travel.

Every time a match ended I waited for and missed your message. That’s when I realized the situation was really bad. Even so, I didn’t stop thinking about going as far as possible, to buy you time and so you could see a match. We reached the final and you couldn’t be there.

I wanted to win it to bring it to you and show you a new one. I couldn’t; my legs wouldn’t give any more. This time I tried to go against my body, but I couldn’t. I never managed to feel good.

When I arrived you thought we had lost the final on penalties. We couldn’t talk about any of everything that happened. You couldn’t enjoy anything.

We weren’t champions, but you have no idea how much we enjoyed every single match. Once again, you were right: I had to be there and play it.

I’m telling you this because it was the only thing we couldn’t talk about, since you already know everything else. We talked every day and saw each other whenever we could, given my commitments.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I don’t know what I’m going to do without you, I don’t know how to go on. I only played football and now I have quite a few doubts about whether I’ll keep doing it for much longer.

You were by my side from the beginning; there was so little left until the end. Why couldn’t you hold on that little bit more so we could finish together?

I know your happiness was seeing your family well, your wife, your children, and above all, without the others finding out, watching me play…

It was always like that since I was little. You would take me to all the training sessions as soon as you got home from work. For many of them Mum took me because you were working.

Obviously you never missed a single match. How you suffered watching me and how you enjoyed it, even though you never gave me many compliments.

You were dad, friend and representative.

You were always the person you needed to be in every moment and you never got anything wrong. Beyond a few reproaches or arguments, you were always right. In the end it always turned out the way you said.

I’m going to miss you a lot, but you’ll always be present, and especially in the upbringing of my children, because I teach them and raise them the way you both did with me.

Rest in peace and look after us from above the way you did down here. Thank you for everything.

I love you, Dad. ❤️

🚨 FULL UEFA STATEMENT DECLARING WORLD CUP BOYCOTT:

"Statement on behalf of UEFA and its 55 National Associations

UEFA and its national associations will not participate in FIFA competitions

UEFA and its 55 member associations stand as one. We unanimously and unequivocally reject FIFA’s proposal to transfer ownership interests in the World Cup and other FIFA competitions to private investors.

The World Cup cannot be treated as an investment product. It is one of football’s greatest sporting legacies. It has been built over generations by players, national teams and supporters across every continent. No part of it should ever be surrendered to private investors. The World Cup is not for sale.

It is both irresponsible and indefensible that a proposal of such significance for football was conceived in secret and brought to the brink of approval without any meaningful consultation with those entrusted with stewarding the game. This is not merely a profound failure of leadership, but an abdication of FIFA’s duty as the custodian of world football.

National associations around the world are now presented with an ultimatum: accept the irreversible capture of football’s greatest competitions or bear the consequences. This is not a “democratic decision”, but governance by intimidation – an act of coercion unworthy of an institution entrusted with the stewardship of the global game.

But our opposition goes far beyond process.

The moment external investors acquire ownership interests in FIFA competitions, football changes forever. Commercial return becomes a permanent obligation. Investor expectations become a daily pressure. From that moment onwards, every decision on the international calendar, every decision on competition formats and every decision shaping the future of football is no longer driven by what best serves the game, but by what best serves shareholders.

This model has no place in world football. Football’s future cannot be dictated by the expectations of those whose first duty is to maximise financial return. Nor can the interests of national associations, leagues, clubs, players and supporters become subordinate to investor returns. Football cannot mortgage its future for financial gain.

Europe’s position is clear. We will never lend this model our legitimacy. No one has the moral authority to sell what they merely hold in trust for the next generation.

As a result of today’s discussion, no UEFA national teams will participate in any FIFA competition for so long as these proposals remain alive, unless this proposal has been abandoned in its entirety and binding assurances have been given that FIFA will never again open its governance or competitions to private ownership.

Nobody should be in any doubt: UEFA and its national associations will oppose these plans with absolute determination.

There are moments when institutions are judged not by what they are prepared to accept, but by what they refuse to compromise. This is one of those moments.

Some things are simply too important to sell. The FIFA World Cup belongs to football. It always will. And so long as Europe has a voice, it will never be for sale."
