Fair-er than the previous for sure. Still not 100% fair. Why should any team that eliminates a higher-ranked one 'take over' its home advantage? Sounds super unfair, and inspired mainly by PSG last season who finished much lower in the league phase than where they should. It's only fair for...

He can turn into a GREAT subersub this season, if he understand and accepts that role. We saw that already yesterday. He can be important versus tired legs, with less need to press, in the last 15' of a game

Agree in general. The thing he def. needs to learn is where and when to move, relative to the movements of his teammates. That bit is lacking, and is what makes all the difference. If he manages that, he will find himself in positions to score a lot

Madrid are not like last season. Will not waste points here and there. We need to become serious and find ways to win all or almost all games against the mid and lower LL teams

Miliato was in line the exact moment the foul takes place, and he is much faster than Oyarzabal, let alone he did not have to run with the ball. 0 chance Oyarzabal would have gotten 1v1 with the keeper after this. Remove your biases, and try to be impartial

Manzano butchered Madrid there. Oyarzabal was NOT the last man If that was given against Barca, you will be screaming here. Try to be impartial in your life As for the game, Sociedad is not what they used to be under Imanol. we should also thrash them later in the month. But Madrid looks...

It's about collective and how we/they play. Newcastle are tailor-made to create problems to better teams like Barca. Some months ago they won a final against Pool.

Last season we had only 1 super difficult game on paper (Bayern H) and 3 tricky ones (Benfica A, BvB A, Atalanta H) This season, it's harder and reversed: 3 very difficult (Newcastle A, Chelsea A, PSG H), and 1 tricky (Brugges A) I see a defeat in the 1st game at St James Park (many reasons...

Liverpool have actually lower net spent than Arsenal this summer, because they sold a lot. Plus, they spent close to 0 last summer, so there is nothing scandalous there. Actually, Arsenal have a quite HIGH net spent the last 5 years or so, where Liverpool is relatively low:

Say that again. First and foremost, Lamine tonight who was horrible.

21/22 was special and unique, and I like the idea of having a dedicated 'European' kit. Although I want it to be more close in terms of design to the 'domestic' home kit. As for the rest, all of them were trash IMO. Even though 19/20, 23/24 (turqoise) and 25/26 (orange) use colors that are part...

Have to say that Arteta up to 22/23 was building a fascinating attacking minded team on the footsteps of Pep. But since 2023, and up to now, he reverted to a 'safe-pass' machine that, even though effective, is boring as hell to watch... Let's see what the exciting teams will be this season in...

Projected CL league phase draw pots are clear after the 1st legs Despite the coefficient system being not bad in determining relative strength of teams, it still messes up several pots. For instance, Arsenal should def. be in pot1 among the 9 strongest teams, and BvB has no business there...

Return to orange, one classic and traditional Barca color for away kits, is potitive! But the 'total 90' design is awful: streamlined and simplistic, with really bad accent color and matchup with main color The home kit is super meh, with blue dominating as with the worst versions of home kits...

official version is all orange the navy shorts are given as alternate

Still struggling to comprehend the reason LL prohibited this kit against LEvante. There is no single clash in there in all shirt, shorts, socks...

Yup. His problem is definitely NOT the big games... But last season the countless draws against midtable sides dropped them out of the title race early

City have much more ground to cover to get the title this season. It will be between Pool and Arsenal IMO, and is still unclear who will get the advantage

I am amazed at Mbeumo Knew he was good from what I have seen at Brendfort. Never imagined he would be THAT good when jumping to the next tier...

Need both fullbacks/wingbacks Huge holes there
