โฆโฆAccording to โฆ@TheSunโฉ , David Luiz plays for Fortaleza. In fact, he does play for Cypriot side Pafos. They never get anything right. Double check everything they print. apple.news/A1FNh0rFvRXmbKANAโฆ
Based on quantity of major trophies, Arsenal leads with 49. But qualityโprestigious titles like Champions League (Chelsea: 2, Arsenal: 0) and recent successesโpoints to Chelsea as London's top club, especially after their 2025 Conference League and Club World Cup wins. London is blue.
Once again, Maresca f@cked up the starting 11. No disrespect to Gusto (who cost us a goal, though) or Badiashile, but there is no world where they start a final ahead of James and Colwill. If we donโt win, itโs on him.
Exactly as I said, the only difference is we rescued a point. One point out of six against a relegated team. Maresca, care to explain why you started our best CB at RB when you had Gusto, James and Acheampong as options? Tosin at CB did cost us two goals!
Maresca is clueless. He has learnt nothing from the first game against Ipswich. Potentially throwing away our CL spot losing six points to a relegated team.
Translated: even if Alvarez had accidentally touched the ball with the other foot before shooting, since the ball had not CLEARLY moved play had not โresumedโ and the goal should have stand. Atleti should appeal against VARโs technical error.
According to IFABโs Laws of the Game, a free kick is in play when:
Law 13 โ Free Kicks (2023/24 IFAB Laws of the Game):
The ball is in play when it is kicked and CLEARLY moves.
Simeone is right. Los Ladrones Blancos have robbed Atleti again. Corruption in plain sight.
Note: According to Law 13 of the IFAB Laws of the Game, the ball is considered in play from a free kick as soon as it is kicked and clearly moves. Key word, clearly. The ball didnโt clearly move. But then, Real had to go through. What a disgrace.
If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the ยฃ232,000,000 she owes give this a RT.
If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the ยฃ14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.
The ref was a fucking wanker. The VAR sent him to the screen for a reason: so that he can get out a RED card. What a joke, what a disgrace. @FA_PGMOL, how are you going to spin it? Release the audio of the conversation between VAR and wanker on the pitch, amuse us!
Thank you Southgate for screwing up another Euro final. We can discuss whether Watkins and Palmer should have started. With Kane, Mainoo and Foden contributing nothing, why he waited that long to introduce Watkins, and longer still to introduce Palmer, is incomprehensible.
After Palmer equalised, all of three minutes after entering the pitch, he should have rebalanced the team, introducing a midfielder to replace Foden. A blind person could have seen that we had no one pressing or doing filter in the middle of the part.
The whole damn country was screaming, calling for that change; everyone but the person in charge could see that. He waited and waited, until we conceded. Only then he replaced Foden, only with Toney for a last throw of the dice. No miracle this time - although we came close.
Thanks God for that. My opinion on Southgate does not change. He was forced to make the changes he should have done much earlier. Changes that any decent manager would have done before going one down.
