No doubt the best female football team in the World. Among nations and clubs.

Poland does not follow this formula at all. Between 2012 till recently they had all positions activily playing in top 5 leagues but won nothing and sucked on the pitch. Maybe they had a poor coaching or too many egos on the pitch but Denmark, Switzerland or even Sweden had players playing in...

Classico today. A winner takes the lead.

Czechs almost equalized and that wrestling before the Penalty Box was an ordinary physical struggle without impact of how the goal was scored... not a foul. Should've been 2:2.

2 :1!... I told u.

Czechs had a really good NT in 2000s. This match they keep trying and despite 2:0 they don't look bad....Spain is falling asleep.

That's ok and forgivable. They embarrassed England on their own turf when bigger things were at stake. This one will not redeem it.

1970s and 80s Yugoslavia, Poland, DDR, Romania, Bulgaria, Czeczoslovakia, SovietUnion were just as capable as the rest of the Western Europe. Both in the European Cups and Internationally.

So, if it were up to me, I'd ban any international trade of players until they have reached the age of 32. Then only 2 internationals can play in a foreign club at any given moment. That's the way it was in Serie A in early 80s. Put me in charge of the Football World! I will not delete this post.

Of course, my theory here is that stronger domestic base = stronger NT.

The Eastern and Central Europe was much better with their National Teams when they had stronger base - domestic leagues. Today, every prospective talent is snatched by those oil money infused molochs to prematurely vanish into oblivion. Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Czechs of course...

Gordon's body will evolve naturally. Leave it be. He is not there to wrestle in the PK area but to be Speedy Gonzalez with good vision and improvisation skills - which is the core asset. After Goretzka - Bayern Munchen - built up his body, he was stronger but lost agility... Same with...

I was suprised too to see it as PK. Red Card was not necessary. It killed the competitive spirit. Romania simply imploded but in the first 20 some minutes, they looked sharp and had better chances.

Yeah...Lewa had a hat trick but his on the pitch demeanor was Ronaldo ish. Doesn’t run. Doesn’t defend. Sloppy on the ball and poor passing...Maybe a bit of pressing to have alibi he does something useful - other than sporadic scoring - for the team. Thank God he's no longer here because out...

Almost everything there is programmed for woke and LGBTQ. Every damn movie or series there has to have a gay or lesbian accentuated scene. And If they were to remake Julius Ceasar, it wouldn't suprise me to see some of his generals or the forum senators to be transvestites. I briefly...

It still feels strange to see Xavi there. The Dutch Football Federation must have been desperate to have hired him... to select their players for the NT. Like they run out of their own.

Bottom line: wanting to be a starter for the NT from the top 10 at 41 years of age is a little too much to ask. Like a Prima Balerina still wanting to play Carmen at 55.

They did not win anything before him either. Kind of like pre Xavi - Iniesta Spain. Lot's of excellent players but underachievers. For instance, I remember Portugal in 1984 Euros...they were 2nd best playing team after Platini's France...or maybe ex aequo with Denmark...they were a revelation...

Aiding Israel became popularly unpopular when most of population realized they did not want to buy 'Iran's about to make a nuke in two weeks' stories. That's different from the Gaza's destruction because it directly affects the livelihood of population and any prospect of 'all in' boots on the...

Mid-term elections in about 5 weeks. Frankly, I know nothing or little about those folks on the ballots. Before, I simply voted blindly for Republicans and omitted Democrats completely. Unsophisticated. However...the balance in the House and Senate may shift because people's voting patterns -...
