I actually think now would be a good opportunity for them to redeem themselves by blowing wasps’ shit wide open.
They won’t because they won’t want to piss off a potential advertiser of course. Their part it it will always be remembered.
It’d be a gut punch for him to leave. He’s a great player and I would like to see him in a Cov shirt some more.
Selling players for hefty profits and reinvesting is how we need to develop though. It’s what eventually got Brentford promoted.
To be fair theirs as much support for Rangers on here as Celtic.
They’re both freak clubs that care more about politics than football and I don’t get the fawning over either of them.
I mean one of the few Real teams to do it.
They’ve won 14 champions leagues but rarely La Liga in the same season. All the teams they’ve beat in the knockout stages would have been considered worthy winners. I think they deserve credit.
And yet one of the few to have done the league and CL double.
They just play to their strengths and win. They may not be attractive to modern standards but they get the job done.
TAA only exists because of the imbalance in the premier league.
He doesn’t have to defend in 75% of the games he plays in because it’s one way traffic.
But as you’ve noted before defenders these days are shocking. His assists aren’t all that impressive when he has the strikers he has running beyond Norwich’s centre backs.
Is he that great going forward?
He was pretty shite all round tonight but as soon as he knew he’d fucked it for Madrid’s goal his body language was shocking and did nothing to threaten Madrid.
To be fair if VAR was used correctly - to correct catastrophic errors - then it would have remained not given as the Lino flagged and it was tight.
In that situation though it would be a 20 second check and done.
