Can't help but feel that, barring some major January moves and/or corberan having a revelation about the team, it's finally over for Valencia.

This is what real football is like. Punching teams in the gut and stealing all three points after a performance of just grit and grind. This is what aesthetes want to steal from you. This is real football

Doesn't roll off the tongue the same way that my favourite, The Tunnocks Caramel Wafer Challenge Cup, did, and I would take a bottle of Jupiler over a lottery ticket any day.

They'd do well to remember that Bayern were successful before Neur, and could definitely be successful after him, but probably won't be anymore with him.

Classic big club in decline thinking. Keep the legends on last the sell by date because they "know the club" and they "get it".

Brazil and Nike is one of the iconic partnerships of modern football. It shows the continued fervor of the Brazilian market and the iconic stature of its team that Nike is signing on for the next four World Cups despite the national team's current travails.

Kendrick Lamar Puts On for LA on ‘GNX’ But The Truth Remains Unsaid Kendrick’s latest project GNX marks the return of K. Dot – an impressive showcase of his versatility and love for the LAnd that still fails to acknowledge the truth.

What's the line between imitation & homage? Do artists need to admit their inspirations if the influence is obvious?

Can an album be a triumph yet disappointing?

Shame because they've impressed me with how they've dealt with losing super important players but yeah.

Hmmmmm

Additionally, next year the Eagles afaik have 8 home games in 2025 which means they will only be given an international match as the away team. Teams only get designated as home teams for international games in 9-game seasons so they still have 8 minimum in their city

The Eagles wouldn't have done this if they didn't think they would have to go there. That said the dolphins hold Brazil rights and didn't go this year so its not a guarantee that they go immediately just because they have marketing rights there.

Wasn't super impressed with his performance at PSV but seems to have grown based on the albeit brief utd spell. Maybe more a coach than a manager. Was joking to someone that Tim Walter's time at Hull seems to be nearly up would be funny if he made a return
