****Soccer is the Greatest Sport on Earth In-Game****

Interesting what spurs look like next time we see them

I have a smidge of hope toby stays after what poch said this week

But outside that, only thing im pretty sure of is sessegnon or Tierney being signed

Expect rose to go, dembele to china probly, llorente to go, maybe sissoko, maybe tripps

Plus we will bring in a center mid, a new cb if toby goes, and a new attacker

Its a big summer, new stadium in london plus best training facility in England are big factors

All rivals will be spending so spurs need to bring in 3 important players, not necessarily big names, but at least squad players who can allow more rest for eriksen, kane etc.

Switching to fifa calender would be dumb, but they should at least slow down for world cup shouldnt they?

I guess with no US i wondr how many players are even missing, and do they think extra focus on footy in morning will create more interest for games in afternoon or evening? Im not sure

But i understand that type of thinking at least
 
Was wondering, PHX ownership group is still pretty insistent MLS will be here sooner than later but I don't see how that would play in the summer w/o a retractable roof
 
Hope verts injury not serious for belgium

Kompany isnt good enough anymore and their fullbacks are decent but nit great, plus courtois been a mess lately

If they dont have verts and toby in defense they could be leaky at the back

They just gave nashville, plus one of Detroit, cinci, sacramento getting one

I read they want to get to 28 then stop for a bit, nashville is 24, one of the above 3 is 25, becks miami team will be 26

So 2 spots for Charlotte, Indianapolis, Phoenix, Raleigh/Durham, St. Louis, San Antonio, San Diego and Tampa/St. Petersburg

From an mls website, and they likely wouldnt start till after 2021
 
Crazy how often people from here go to Manchester, damn near every home match someone is there. One guy went to Glasgow, over to Manchester for CL match, back to Scotland, fly by for Pool/Everton 1st half then to Etihad for the Derby, then back to PHX all in 5 or 6 days. Made me dizzy thinking about it.

Ya that part kind of sucks

Costa rica should be nice

I want maldives next summer, but most likely Caribbean or hawaii

Yeah based on my preliminary looks CR should be pretty cheap too. If we wanted to go big, going to Peru and doing machu pichu was something that’s been discussed

Taking 9 days off , but would have only taken two weekends off had US made World Cup

I believe LAFC has 5 starters that are going miss ,
 
owners Hate plying weekday games because the revenue just isn’t close to a Saturday/ Sunday game and that’s what it would require to take off even more

It’s all about the money
 
I did think it waa kinda funny yesterday, on the nbc postgame stuff, they spent like 20 minutes on the world cup, and half of it waa with the spanish announcer, doing games on telemundo i think?

He said he will be there live, seemed to be taking shots at fox

yeah most of the Fox announcers will be announcing from the studio in LA

I wish I knew Spanish

There are some rumors that Comcast might be Fox Sports, which means NBC could take over the sports stuff that Fox has. I pray for that day
 
fml forgot the final was today and have a lofty wager on OM to win, completely dropped the ball
 
Yep, only complaint is minor and its taking 5 fullbacks

So happy he didnt take hart

Alexander-Arnold doesnt need to be there,,would have rather had wilshere or shelvey

I assume Southgate plans to go wiyh 3 centerbacks and use walker as a cb, but still he coule be cover at rb, plus young can play both sides

They have some good options with formations

If you go back 5 something like

Butland or pickford
Trippier walker jones stones rose
Dier henderson
Sterling alli
Kane

Or they can go bsck 4 with

Walker stones jones rose
Dier henderson
Sterling alli lingard
kane

Is my guess

Id rather rashford over lingard, also if we want to really go for it, put vardy up Top with kane and sterling behind, then alli as the AM, dier and henderson shielding

Welbeck a good option off bench too
 
Either way he has options, team really lacks a dymanic CM to be a in the top tier

But kane, sterling, alli is one of the most dangerous front 3s in the tournament, will go as far as they take the team and if they get hot i could see them in a SF
 
Guardiola renews until 2021 at Man City. Mahrez and Jorginho likely to join them.

Meanwhile at Arsenal we're about to appoint a coach with 0 experience as head coach... Let's say I have mixed feelings about this
 
Cray CL final, usual party has people dropping like flies...RM burnout I guess, the shit people rather do than watch that according to posts is kinda funny
 
Not really sure the local joints will open up in the morning for WC w/o US in it, fuck I hope so
 
I don’t get the backlash on Grioud being included on the squad .

His hold up play is excellent and he is word class in the air

You can’t have a team of 5 of the exact kind of striker

Wasn't that the thought anyway?

Rumor is Yaya will fade away at NYCFC

Last week heard it was pretty much a done deal, but things changed with Sam fired and maybe living in the suburbs of VA wasn’t that attractive to his wife and family

It looks like Arteta to Arsenal is a done deal.. Would not have been my first choice but let's hope for the best now. The defence and away form have been so bad it cannot be worse with Arteta.

Let's see who he brings as assistants, I'm seeing Thierry Henry mentioned. I hope they bring one to work on the defence as well

Well, if it’s a done deal, we shall hope he is smart enough to know we need to improve our defense first. Tactically, plus our defenders form been tragic the last few years so whoever steps in, you’re spot in that we need specialists to address our defensive problems.

Not official yet but this guy is reliable and he is saying it should be official in a few days probably early next week www.twitter.com/DarrenArsenal1/status/997617928987185157

I like it that they got rid of almost all the Wenger staff so there will be a fresh start. Also not many Arsenal players at the World Cup so players will be well rested haha..

Lmao! None of our players strike much fear in others, list from arsenal.com shows Ozil, Welbeck, Iwobi, Elneny, Ospina, and Joel campbell. Winner winner chicken dinner!!
 
Personally I like Arsenal thinking outside the box , too many of these teams hire the same guys over and over .

Tremendous amount of pressure on him, hope he does well
 
He’s going to need help, from the top all the way down.

Squad overhaul.. needs everywhere.. defenders & a goalie would be nice
