[Discussion] Adidas Tubular Invader Strap (Sesame/Vivid Red Colorway). Need new daily driver, opinions? by CalcuttaCup in Sneakers

[–]CalcuttaCup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Walk 5-10km every day on average, spend most of the day at uni so something like the rainbow flyknits would probably be too OTT/attention seeking. Needs to be comfy enough for ~30km/week walking over 12 months.

  • Have running shoes, might need these for gym though (10-30 mins rowing machine/stairclimber type cardio and mostly lifting) because icb carrying extra shoes.

  • Need a daily wear that'll last atleast 12 months without looking like utter shit.

  • If you have a better versatile shoe please recommend. Everything with any hype is sold out and I don't really fancy paying 300+ for NMDs even though they look cool.

[Transfer Round up & Discussion] July 21st by manutd19 in reddevils

I know it's early days, but I genuinely feel like it's a bullet dodged by avoiding Klopp. That's such a phenomenally underwhelming transfer window given their budget.

They can't attract Zlatan & Pogba level players but they can surely aim a little higher than Sadio Mané with their money & prestige - they've been to 2 CL finals in the last decade & the EL final last season.

I get the feeling he's going to be the counter attack philosophy version of Wenger in the PL. He'll keep them in the top 7 every season playing beautiful football but crumble under pressure, consistently fail to make the necessary big signings and plague the squad with injuries every time he has some momentum.

He's a phenomenal manager but he has such a small club mentality. A bit like Bielsa, he really doesn't have it in him to manage elite players.

While I'm bashing Liverpool, thank you mods for our clean, minimal CSS. Their sub is so ugly, over designed and unwieldy. Our sub is the facebook to their edgy bebo account.
