    Not allowed again afaik. The Egypt and Greece thing is fabricated, niether will do it and when Saudi apply for it, they will never share it with another country. Not after Qatar got all one by itself. Never mind MBS is still in his 30's, he is patient. So far, 2030 Saudi world cup is just a...

    U20 World Cup

    That is a fair question, both can play DM but it doesn't look like their best position. They are more of a CM either as b2b (Diaz) or more holding midfielder like Nico. Nico is only 13 months older, and while it is significant at that category, it isn't that big either. OTOH, he has the...

    No. Asia aren't allowed to bid for any WC before 2034 afaik, as rotation policy from FIFA. They are eyeing the 2030 vision for the whole country, a modernisation of it, and entertainment has been in the centre of MBS vision. They genuinely want to make it a top 10 league in the world, and it...

    U20 World Cup

    Yeah, Uruguay is very good team, good depth and everyone shows when needed, well coached too. Diaz is looking good btw, still think he isn't a pure DM but I am starting to think he can get Liga minutes if he is loaned.

    Iñaki Peña (loaned to Elche)

    I was hoping he won't renew but for whatever reason it happened. Looks like Laporta's first tenure, we ran with Jorquera until injuries happened, so we get Pinto Whom we also ran into ground until Valdes injuries

    Van Bommel

    Total craziness in the Belgian league this evening... 89' — Union St Gilloise were champions 91' — Genk were champions 94' — Royal Antwerp secure league title & champion status after a last minute winner by Toby Alderweireld

    Van Bommel

    Just won Belgium league with Antwerp, clinching domestic double for them. First league titles since 1957, and boy it was dramatic end, 3 different teams were champions in different time within 15 minutes

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    They won the league, it was a dramatic end. PS: watched that game, and Vermereen looked mediocre at best.

    Karim Benzema

    Chelsea are getting Nkunku, doubt they will go for Osimhen this summer, Kane has a decision to make. Be top scorer of last 30+ years of English top flight, with no chance of chasing the real all time record anyway, or win trophies. If it is the former then he is going to Manu (Chelsea srand...

    If Wikipedia to be believed, a win today means they will be crowned champions, no? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022%E2%80%9323_Belgian_Pro_League

    Luis Enrique

    Nah. Napoli is the worst job out there. Taking a job after a massive achievements is a lose lose situation. Even Pep couldn't escape the Heynckes success in Bayern. With PSG, at least clubs know it is toxic environment and no one cares anymore. He will get money and a chance for some success

    İlkay Gündoğan

    Arda was another "he can play as a winger or midfielder " type of signing. He never had a position and after failing to adapt he completely gave up.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    25M for a player who would have left for free last year, can still left for free next year, and who is one of the most injury prone players we have. That is a good price, and actually good from Barca. If anything I hope he takes it and spare Barca management the headache

    İlkay Gündoğan

    I just hope that 3rd year is a team option or performance based. If things goes south with him, for any reason next year, it will be much easier to move on if he has one year left.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    At 16 (only completes it a month before the start of the season) that is too much to ask from him, even Messi and Fati `didn't do it that young, and both struggled with injuries early in their careers. Bojan didn't benefit from being promoted at 17 either. I think it will be a mistake doing so...

    Spain

    If this team has a proper 9 (or a goal scoring attacker) they would have been one of the best teams around tbh
