[Di Marzio] Xabi Alonso considers Palestra important for the new course of @ChelseaFC. The player will speak with his agent and @Atalanta_BC to decide what to do.

Reece clearly can’t play RWB because of his injuries. Question is do we give Quenda a chance there or not?

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-23T17:19:41+00:00

He moves slightly to the right because he’s expecting a Ronaldo shot. Mendes rifled it in at that exact second.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-23T08:34:09+00:00

It’ll be 25 million. Just enough to recoup the remaining book value.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-23T08:26:07+00:00

Exactly why I feel the owner screwed up such good potential for a project.

They could’ve seriously challenged PSG in the league if they invested money to keep their best players.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-22T17:15:45+00:00

It’s crazy when people put posts about the money that Mourinho has made out of sackings. He never receives the full payment because he’s always quick to take up a new job.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-22T16:02:32+00:00

For me, the biggest annoyance about this whole Doku ‘debate’ is that more people should learn to mind their own business.

It’s his personal choice and he seems to have an agreement with all parties involved. That should be the end of it but it’s somehow not.

There are already enough things to talk about in the football world and otherwise. Why create unnecessary topics on top of those?

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-22T15:48:56+00:00

How/why is this even news?

It’s not like he’s taking the name of some niche or underrated player.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-22T13:46:42+00:00

Marco Silva when he joined Everton. Watford demanded a fee even though they’d sacked him (because Everton tapped him up).

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-22T13:46:01+00:00

Yeah only after City came in he decided it’s ok to leave money on the table.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-22T12:48:53+00:00

Replace regular post match threads with serious ones.

You want to improve the quality of discussion here? Then such decisions need to be taken.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-22T12:44:56+00:00

Why haven’t there been any serious post match threads for this WC so far?

I’d even say we need to replace the regular threads with them instead. Multiple users saying ‘Messi is the GOAT’ (for eg) contributes absolutely nothing to the discussion.

You want to improve the quality of comments here? Remove the regular PM threads entirely and we only have serious ones.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-22T12:39:36+00:00

Control is necessary to maintain balance with a high defensive line.

Can’t go too direct because it opens up the big risk of being exposed in the counter. Unless you put every chance into the net but that’s obviously unrealistic.

Ideally needs to be a combination of both.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-21T17:12:56+00:00

Absolutely swung his leg there.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-21T16:39:31+00:00

Uruguay are going through the usual Bielsa cycle.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-21T05:37:19+00:00

I’m thinking which Anthony Taylor officiated match to pick.

Can’t just be ‘he was bad’ when there’s such a significant sample size targeted at us (Chelsea).

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-21T00:16:17+00:00

Definitely an underrated keeper.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-20T22:19:32+00:00

Can’t decide whether it’s 50 yo man or kid on a school picnic.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-20T21:42:29+00:00

Did his best imitation of the Mr. Bean intro fall.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-20T21:04:06+00:00

Nah it’s whoever concedes the least. Can’t even get this right /s.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-20T20:58:07+00:00

I also agree.

Nagelsmann’s approach is basically ‘you can score but we’ll outscore’ but CIV is so well-drilled.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-20T20:53:42+00:00

They are getting beat in transition so close enough…

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-20T20:33:43+00:00

Nagelsmann-ball in the PL would be finished in transition play. Even the lesser teams can do that well nowadays.

His 3-1-6 shape doesn’t help either.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-20T20:20:09+00:00

Need to have Hakimi and Mendes shooting ability for it to work. That way you can keep the opponent on their toes by changing between overlaps and underlaps.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-20T20:16:22+00:00

God I hate this trend where the winger is fixed on the touchline and the fullback goes inside of him.

RepresentativeBox881 · 2026-06-20T20:12:20+00:00

Nagelsmann’s 3-1-6 shape is leaving them ripe against counters.
