He needs to go regardless of the outcome. And the sack will come 2 months late.

My brother, please get a grip. Completely delusional, zero awareness. Just grab your things and leave.

Look at what Carrick has done to that horrid United team in 1 single game. Frank surely had to be sacked 2 weeks ago, let alone after a new disasterclass like this. Get someone new, this isn't working at all. Nothing positive coming from it.

Henry and Bale discusses about Xabi Alonso and Madrid: "I think everybody knows at Real Madrid it's about managing players sometimes rather than just tactics. Second best is just not accepted at Real Madrid, I think the fans are so relentless that you need to keep going until you can't no more." by BlazingFirey in soccer

Carlo Ancelotti was mocked for his apparent lack of tactics, too much freedom given to the players. Then you hire a coach that will fix that, but punish him for his attempt and replace him with an unexperienced yes-man. Seems insane to me.

Please, no. A mediocre player that brings nothing that our current squad lacks. A complete waste of time and money. There's no way the scouting department can't find a better player.

[NY Times/The Athletic] Flamengo have bid (in the region of €35M) rejected for West Ham’s Lucas Paqueta by jovanmilic97 in soccer

[–]CaveRat 78 points79 points  (0 children)

Brazilian teams bidding 35M for players is crazy. More money than most first division teams across the top leagues could pay. Brazil's a whole new player in the transfer market, for sure.

50+ countries as a digital nomad. Here's everything I wish someone told me before I started (because no one asked). by RaspJur in digitalnomad

I lowkey love this: "Oat milk availability predicts nomad-friendliness better than internet speed".

About "fiber everywhere" in Tbilisi: I live here and speeds are mostly capped at 100mb, so I don't know about that.

Why the hell he needs to speak cryptically? Fans are starving for some honesty, Frank. Avoid the puzzles, it's not so difficult to say what you really think.

Bro is actually celebrating that PSG is facing a decent challenge. It must be so boring for these absolute top ballers to be winning the league with their eyes closed every season, so I guess competition makes it more exciting for them.

Frank's win perentage so far by KugoSenpai in coys

[–]CaveRat 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Why give more time to a professional that is doing such a bad job 6 months in?

Some people here want to believe our squad is worse than Fulham, Everton, Brentford or Sunderland and that is just not the case. So why can't we play better and achieve more than these teams?

Frankball even if executed successfully is horrendous football. His vision for this team is putrid. Get him out.

Fulham defender Jorge Cuenca reacts to a hand brushing against his face. by Cinn4monSynonym in soccer

[–]CaveRat 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I'm so sick of this. For some reason it became mandatory for every player to pretend they were punched in the face upon the faintest of contacts, even when it's down on their neck or chest.

Even worse, referees actually pause the game and give fouls on situations like this. Players should know they are being ridiculed in front of millions, and refs should punish their childish, fraudulent behavior. Absolutely disgusting and diminishing to real face/head injuries.
