In footballing terms only, that’s the part I have trouble with. I think he probably did it because I believe the women, and I really want him out of the club, but I’m never sure what a club should do in these situations. If they suspended him the second the accusations came forward, he would have been out of the club for a year and a half now with no end in sight. If the investigation is never dropped, but the police don’t have enough evidence to charge or drop (at this point), is his career over? Should it be the same for just some random guy that works at a Tesco in Mansfield? He’s not allowed to work until the investigation is dropped?

I think that’s typically how I define it too. Saka is easily a top 5 RW. Saliba is easily a top 5 CB. Rice is easily a top 5 DM

His persona doesn’t win many hearts, but he’s right so much more often than he’s wrong. Part of the problem is his insistence on going all in on his hot takes (like how incredible Maguire is)

They didn’t have a single shot for 60 minutes. They generated 1.0 xG with something like 0.7 of it coming from their goal that shouldn’t have stood. I don’t see a world we lose that game without that decision

I know my opinion isn’t universally shared. That’s what I’m trying to figure out. Every time I watch the goal I try to see how it isn’t a foul and I can’t. He used Gabriel’s neck as a springboard

The foul isn’t a 50/50 imo. It’s so obviously a foul that I honestly can’t understand anyone saying otherwise. The ball out of play and the offside are much more 50/50 calls

Probably not the best in the world right now, but I don’t think there’s any I’d rather have for the next 10 years

If this was fifa and I didn’t have to worry about chemistry and structural stability, I’d like to see a rotated squad tomorrow with a front three of Trossard/Havertz/Nelson, with a midfield of Jorginho/ESR/Vieira behind them

I love Odegaard, but Rice looks more like a captain so far this season

This definitely feels like a loss to me after how shit the team looked for most of the game

He had a couple shaky moments in the City game, but he does not look shaky af

Pickford hasn’t made a save since the World Cup lmao. Every shot on target has been a goal

Completely forgot Bellingham was playing today
