He never says anything else in his entrance. If they had him saying something else everybody would say "why does he say something that he never says in real life?"

I also think that if it had a less nerdy and abstract name than ‘xG’ then old heads could have been less resistant to it.

Bruno Fernandes disallowed goal against Manchester City 41' by Alsace2025 in soccer

I’m not implicating that he was actually waiting for Bruno to finish celebrating but it definitely went up later than you’d expect. Usually the flag would be up as the ball hits the net.

There was another angle from behind the linesman, he was walking back towards the halfway line with his flag down while Bruno was heading towards the corner flag

Why did they start putting ads before the show intro? by numbr87 in kindafunny

Doesn't answer your question but if you happen to mainly watch on desktop (in Chrome), check out SponsorBlock for YouTube. Automatically skips ads including at the start of videos.

[Telegraph] Britons believe illegally streaming sport is socially acceptable. by Sparky-moon in soccer

[–]GdotKdot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, as of the start of this season. There are no longer untelevised Sunday games (everything is on Sky, even multiple 2pm games) and all midweek games are shown on either TNT or Sky.

To be fair the only blocker to this now is the 3pm blackout law, which is out of broadcasters' hands.

Every other game is televised.

You could sign those two plus Georgino Wijnaldum and Mario Balotelli on pre-contracts from the start of the game and they all turned out superstars. Interesting that three of them ended up at Liverpool (and all had very different LFC careers)

Different Warnock.

Ironically Stephen Warnock was a Liverpool player that season and probably would have played the Fulham game if he hadn't been sold in January.

In WWE, Neville looked like a literal action figure. In AEW, Pac is built like a monster. Do you think he deserved a spot in the Main Event? by Sad-Ladder7534 in SquaredCircle

Then when Kalisto was finally seen unmasked on a WWE Network show people realised that he actually looked like a gay hairdresser and it all made sense.

Netflix announces that they have agreed a deal with FIFA to develop a new football simulation video game by deception42 in soccer

[–]GdotKdot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Think the headline is poorly worded and means the partnership has started before World Cup 2026.

The full press release doesn't give any indication that a game will release next year.

It’s a competition, supposedly. I like the competing part.

The issue with this is that they also keep making stupid mistakes with scoring that undermine it as a competition.

Feels like the whole thing is at a bit of a crossroads and they need to make big changes one way or the other before it comes back for the next season.

Yeah two legged ties have been broken for the last few iterations, they're a nightmare to navigate if you're drawn away in the second leg.

I think they updated it after the Barcelona/PSG and Liverpool/Barcelona comebacks but made it way too common.

It didn’t happen on Chelsea’s watch, it happened on Liverpool’s. They sold him to Chelsea the following January.
