  • Anti-football is nothing new, in fact there’s defined eras of it. What you’re doing is recalling fond memories and comparing it with reality of the present.

    These things come and go because the world is full of variance. Football is an endless cycle of change where someone breaks ground and the rest adapt. The media are just selling stories otherwise they’d address the rank incompetence of PGMOL, IFAB and the likes which is the fundamental factor in all of this.

    The rampant corruption across the game, on the other hand, I find incredibly off-putting.


  • Absolutely fuck that. He’s special at his best but it’s no way consistent enough, too many top fullbacks shut him out and even decent ones can bully him out the game. His technique is so substandard at times where there’s a lack of space and time, like he’d get here. Maybe Arteta can help in ways but to pay even half of that for a player as flawed as him is crazy given what we’re chasing.

    Idk how much time you spend watching Serie A, but I’ve seen as many games where he’s awful as he’s been good, looks good in a YT comp but that’s it. We just got rid of Pepe we don’t need a better version of the same problem.
