I think Opta having the Championship at 7 discredits their formula It's a silly joke referencing the ongoing debate between @WestHamCanadianinOxford and @Unnamed Trialist on the quality of leagues. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Our move for Kilman seems to be stalling over a huge fee, so this looks a real possibility. Opens up money and space for Bombito - possibly. Canuckia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Botafogo’s American owner just purchased them and Lyon in 2022, so all of this is pretty new. Same guy owns Fubo too. I unfortunately own some of fubo as well. Which made it bittersweet when I got the free trial for the france+Dutch games, missed the cancel deadline, emailed them and had the charges reversed.

Borjans Sweatpants Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 Just saw a post on GiveMeSport about the fasters players at Euro 2024 so far: 1. Sesko (Slovenia) - 35.9 km/h 2. Sane (Germany) & Mihaila (Romania) - 35.8 km/h 4. Hernandez (France) - 35.7 km/h 5. Ndoye (Switzerland) & van de Ven (Netherlands) - 35.6 km/h All slower than Moise in that clip v Orlando (37.27 km/h). narduch, Fresh Prince of MTL, aredding77 and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend messaged me this too... how did he mess up on the goal? He's going full blast back, gets body checked off the ball (where sure maybe he could be a bit stronger but its also questionably a foul on Rondon), but then keeps him in front of him. If Crepeau stays in his net then there's no chip opportunity, and there's nothing there. Crepeau has to trust that Bombito is getting back in front of him, especially with his speed. Max had an incredible game and saved us in the penalties, but that goal was on him alone. For me at least. dyslexic nam, gkhs, nolando and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Bombito could have won that specific battle but losing it definitely shouldn’t have resulted in a goal. That is largely on Max. He redeemed himself for sure, but it doesn’t change the goal.

PiedPilko Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 I expected everyone to be ragging on Moise, so I'm glad that's not the case. ...since it's not the case, I'll say that he really should've pressured Rondon. He gave him acres of space to make that shot. Borjans Sweatpants and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-O Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 This guy is green & it is amazing he has that experience in this Copa. 2 years before the World Cup, he'll move to a better league and will face once again 2 big clubs Argentina & Uruguay/Brazil/Colombia.

Vasi Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 His rise has been magical. He has come out of bo where. Both of our CB's are getting moves after copa.

There's no way you don't leave a 2 on 1 vs a lethal striker to defend the counter up a goal. Huge failure to send Cornelius up winning in m 60: incapacity to read the game. There are plenty of guys here coaching kids who do this as standard and every pro and semi pro match I've ever seen has this as also standard. Blaming Bombito is only seeing the narrow picture. costarg, CanadaFan123 and kacbru 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonovision Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 ^ I think its okay to send Cornelius forward but then you need to send another player (usually a smaller, quicker one) back with Bombito. Club Linesman, costarg, kacbru and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
