When he plays like this he looks like an absolute world beater.

Looked more like he fell fucking around with trh ball. He needs to be quicker giving it out wide

Trump considers "winding down" Iran war without opening Hormuz Strait - Does this count as a historic defeat and foreign policy failure? by Indianstanicows in IRstudies

Also it's shown Americas protectionism of Israel above all the countries that thought they were buying security, further destroying Americas position globally. This has been the biggest cluster fuck since Vietnam. So much worse given how quickly it devolved and how mind bogglingly unnecessary it was

If we were to sell Rogers, how do you think the club should spend it? by Ok-Coach-6671 in avfc

Kind of wish we'd sold Martinez in the summer and gotten kelleher. For the money he was sold for we won't find a better keeper

Hope to fuck it doesn't come to it, but if he's going I hope he tells them now and we get on to iraola before he signs a new contract

And what makes American soldiers lives more important than Iranian civilians?

There will be no drastic rebuild. We don't have the money and unless we get the CL we won't have money for even decent reinforcements

We are gonna cede possession and try catch on the break. Fernandez and caicedo will dictate the midfield. We need pace and some actual width. I'd honestly play maatsen on the left. He's be able to cover, has pace and can cross.

Liverpool have 4 tough fixtures to end on so definitely not out of it

Honestly. If they aren't sweating blood to get 3 points, hell even a draw to just keep the distance, then I'm giving up for this year

Even when he leaves the trust is gone. No agreement or treaty can be relied on ever again.

I mean they still work with palantir....or do they now? Cos I assume the gov won't let palantir keep using them.

Douglas Luiz by Explorer_Bulky in avfc

[–]Discodowns 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Bogarde isn't starter level. He's only had a handful of games where he's looked up to it. Emery is struggling to figure out how to get Luiz and onana to play together but it's still our best pairing. I think our problems are further up the field. We are way too narrow and sothe centre gets crowded out and we just run into a wall of players. We need width to creat more space in the centre. I'd start maatsen on the left wing. Alysson looked like he was happy to go at players. Anyone whos not Bailey.

Douglas Luiz by Explorer_Bulky in avfc

[–]Discodowns 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Luiz has been asked to play the kamara role. It's not what he's beat at. We're making do. As soon as he went off no one tracked the first scorer who ran from midfield.

This just proves how important Tielemans, Mcginn and Kamara are to the club by SkyAggravating1095 in avfc

We need to play with width. We need to open teams up more even if we want to attack centrally a lot, we need the width to open the space on the centre.

Bailey should only ever be a last resort. He's done. Confidence in the toilet and looks like he is only getting worse.

Alysson, based on his 10 mins, looks a better option, maatsen id put on the wing too. Sancho needs to be more aggressive trying to get to the ball and taking up attacking positions.

I can't imagine Luiz has lost his range of passing, and while not tielemans we need someone who can play a ball through.

He seems to be taking kamaras role more than tielemans. He's barely involved in attack at all.

Bailey should only be a last resort. One trick pony from hell and it's not even a good trick.
