Trent Alexander-Arnold`s move to Real Madrid is maybe the worst decision football-wise we`ve ever seen. He went for a Ballon D'or, but ended up losing his place in the England squad infront of a World Cup, playing shite and replaced only 12 months later by a 30 year old Dutch.

Yan Diomande is sending Hincapie for the Echo every single time. Just go and get him.

Proper Liverpool goal that.

A "hydration break" in an indoor, climate-controlled stadium. I guess the rules will be a coffee or warm chocolate break in the Norwegian top flight coming season. It has nothing to do with commercials.

This Haiti team doesn`t mess around, it`s like watching Wimbledon under Egil Drillo Olsen.

On the other hand, there will be players who will suffer, who fall significantly in performance based on the coach's dispositions. From a Liverpool standpoint: Alisson Mo Salah ( out of contract ) Virgil van Dijk

If you don`t put the ball away, you get punished. That`s football.

I`ve always defended Hendo, even wanted him back. I wanted a statue when he left. Liverpool fans couldn`t get him out soon enough. And Michael Edwards.

Here we go. We need a golden buzzer in football.

Here we go. We are going to add minus minutes at clock 00:00 when the match is finished now.

Here we go. A Major League Baseball game, the third most watch sport in the U.S can last 2 hours, 3 hours or 6 hours or 8.5 hours. But the problem is 93 mins or 99 mins right?

Here we go. A draw shouldn`t exist, 3 points for a win, 2 points for a win in overtime, 1 point for a win in a penalty shoot out. Draft system and no relegation. 3 halves with a lot of time for ad-breaks. National anthem for every game.

Declaraciones de Jurgen Klopp a ZDF, sobre la reanudación del juego retrasada por el árbitro, durante el cooling break del México-Sudáfrica para que terminaran los comerciales de algunas cadenas de TV: "Esto es el fútbol siendo tomado como rehén por ejecutivos en oficinas con aire acondicionado". "Estos supuestos 'descansos por el calor' nos los vendieron como un escudo para el bienestar de los jugadores, una noble espada contra el calor. ¿Pero en realidad? No es más que una jaula dorada construida para patrocinadores. Cuando vi a los jugadores parados durante un descanso por calor mientras los tiempos de televisión dictaban el ritmo del partido, no pude evitar preguntarme: ¿a quién está sirviendo realmente la Copa del Mundo? ¿A los aficionados?, ¿A los jugadores?, ¿O a los anunciantes?". "Un partido de la Copa del Mundo debería fluir como un río. En cambio, estamos construyendo presas en medio de él para que los comerciales puedan pasar. Eso es peligroso para el espíritu del juego. El fútbol alguna vez fue el evento principal, pero ahora corre el riesgo de convertirse en la música de fondo de un espectáculo publicitario. Nos dicen que estos descansos son por el bienestar de los jugadores, y por supuesto la salud de los jugadores importa. Pero cuando el juego empieza a doblar sus rodillas ante los tiempos de la televisión, la gente va a hacer preguntas. El balón se supone que es la estrella. No un descanso comercial". "La Copa del Mundo es la catedral del fútbol. Sin embargo, a veces da la sensación de que la hemos convertido en un centro comercial donde la caja registradora recibe más respeto que el propio partido. Si este es el futuro, entonces el fútbol ya no está siendo interrumpido por los anuncios. El fútbol se está convirtiendo en la interrupción entre los anuncios".

🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: England's camp have been ROBBED in the United States: • Players’ match boots were stolen from a van before their first training session in Kansas City • Official tournament balls and key training equipment were also taken • Boots belonging to stars like Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham are feared to be among the stolen items • The kit was being transported from England’s pre-camp in West Palm Beach to their World Cup base in Missouri • Training gear, analysis equipment, whiteboards and massage tables were also part of the shipment • England staff are now racing to recover or replace the missing equipment before their World Cup opener vs Croatia • Kansas City Police confirmed they are investigating a possible theft, with reports claiming an arrest has already been made — @CraigHope_DM

FIFA turning football into a sport played in four quarters. Seems bad! (I am especially looking forward to these crucial "hydration breaks" taking place in indoor, climate-controlled venues. That'll make total sense)
