    Euro 2024

    Mendes shouldn't be permitted to make a forward pass. He's tecnically awful. Where attacks go to die. All his teammates are patient and he repeatedly kills the buildup with a terrible ball. Please let the creative players direct the attack.

    Euro 2024

    Not what I observed. The flight of the ball did not visibly change at all.

    Euro 2024

    He's still a beast, broke up many attacks. :worthy:

    Euro 2024

    They played well, deserved a draw. France, as always, is a boring-ass team.

    Euro 2024

    De Bruyne out there by himself, trying (unsuccessfully) to get his teammates to move into the gaps that open up and take advantage of the spaces. TBH, they still should have won. The "hand ball" was a marginal unintentional brush of the fingertips that had zero effect on the motion of the ball...

    I always go here for streams. I find that the Ronaldo7 stream tends to be consistently solid, so that's the one I check first. https://www.footybite.to/

    Euro 2024

    For all the hype about the EPL being physical, the English team was falling over like matchsticks, without resisting. Serbia was relentlessly fouling by shoving players in the back but the ref wasn't calling this crap until the final few minutes of the game. I'm no fan of England but they need...

    Euro 2024

    Here are my final predictions (including scores in the group stages). My biggest possible errors: - Spain might beat Germany. - Italy might beat England (assuming they take 2nd in Group B). And there are bound to be more draws than I predicted. I only predicted draws in matches I truly felt...

    Euro 2024

    Prediction: Portugal will win the whole thing; Felix and Cancelo will be major contributors.

    Euro 2024

    My favorite to win.

    Euro 2024

    Here are my quickie predictions. The convoluted formula they use to fill out the Round of 16 with 3rd placing group stage teams makes it hard to figure who goes where. The only group I think where that might make a difference is the B Group of Death where there will be a strong 3rd place team...

    Phil Foden

    The quality of his shooting is insane. And love his Messi-like desire to drive and stay on his feet despite tackles and fouls. No easy dives.

    Pedro Rodriguez

    Likely return to Spain for 24-25, as Sarri was sacked at Lazio. Speculation: if Inter Miami offered him a spot with los amigos, he'd tear that shit up.

    Ludovic Giuly vs Pedro

    Pedro has always been underrated. When he's playing with other unselfish players, he's still brilliant.

    Phil Foden

    Yep. Among his many great qualities is his shot accuracy. Almost always puts his shots on target, no matter the distance (74.58% in PL this year).

    La Liga Round 37: Barca - Rayo Vallecano 3-0

    The defender really should have used his body on Pedri. Just some good shoulder contact might have thrown off the shot. Nice control by Pedri.

    La Liga Round 37: Barca - Rayo Vallecano 3-0

    Xavi's very conservative. Felix is going to take more risks. Watch the difference when Portugal wins the Euros.

    La Liga Round 37: Barca - Rayo Vallecano 3-0

    Felix was so good there he fooled the cameraman.

    Premier League 23/24

    Love Rodri! No one I'd pick over him in his position.

    Premier League 23/24

    Love Doku. So tricky, fast, and strong. They know, and always double-team him.
