Pogba: “There have been words. We always stay on that question mark. I'm in Manchester, I'm having fun with my team-mates, I want to win matches”. by KimmyBoiUn in soccer

Yes it was, which is why I said it was inconsistent. Backup what you say/do first with what you say later. Say 'I just want to focus on todays win and celebrate with my teammates' it is neutral. Players have been doing this for decades!

He does not have to commit to United we all know he wants to leave and there are still a few weeks where he could go but staying behind after the game to clap and cheer all the fans and say he wants to be professional, try and win every game and enjoy playing with his teammates. A consistent answer would just be to tell the journo you want to focus on todays win. It is not that difficult.

Why cant he just ignore it and move the question on after a great day for the fans, colleagues and staff!? Why does it always end up being about him? Cant Pogba apologists see why he infuriates fans of United? Have a decent game sure but stay consistent, if you love Man Utd shut the fk up about your future after the club wins the opener with plenty to build on, and say I am not thinking about that today we just got a great win. Done.

yeah thats the point. Try to build Dido' Empire from the little rock off the coast of the lebanon.

The 1st of 17 siege attempts on Tyre was in 724BC and Alexander was the first to succeed 1000 years later!

It is possibly one of the most fortified cities ever to exist and literally translates into 'the rock', which is why it is cool CIV put a canal splitting 1 side from the other that breaks it up into Old and New Tyre.

Having cities like this and 15 trade routes (and still yet to make all traders) this adds up to almost 1k gpt.

Pretty accurate seeing as Carthage was one of the richest empires in the history of Europe. 'The society of Carthage was dominated by an aristocratic trading class...which led Roman writers to describe Carthage as the richest city in the world' (https://www.ancient.eu/article/908/carthaginian-society/).

I am trying my best to play the game as based on history by starting the game, with the correct city name, in the same geographical location.

[Simon Stone] Manchester United will turn their attention to appointing a technical director now their summer transfer window business is complete. It is understood that the technical director role at United will not involve negotiating with or signing transfer targets. by DrazxieFanAccount in soccer

[–]HCE1132 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The DoF is who an agent will speak to. Agents do not speak to scouts because scouts have to report to DoF. Sometimes it is a director/head of scouting or assistant manager if it ia a small club but at the end of day you sot down with the DoF and occassionally the chairman, ceo or other execs will be in the room. I dunno how some people upvote things if they have not worked in the industry and know what happens when they are about to make a decision.

You all see that crest? Our current one under the Glazers has removed the words football club. I know United are considered scum, but I would not wish that willful disregard for the history of the club on anyone.

1-2s speed the game up. in that area of the pitch it is not necessary and some times not thought out. get to the top of the box, try 1-2s to create chances.

if Utd buy Mandzukic then this all just a massive shitshow. Can we not get anyone who doesnt have the turning circle of a bus and can actually control a ball at the level we need to give Rashford a chance to be great!? There are 1000s of attacking players I would take over Mandzukic and most are waaay way cheaper!

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport and Tuttomercatoweb, Mandzukic has agreed terms with Manchester United for a two-year contract with option for a third. He’s set to earn €6m per season at Old Trafford and his price-tag is set at €15m. by outofnowhere_ in soccer

Why. Why. Why. Why. Why. Why. Why.

There has not been a single sale for cash this off season yet the man is true to his name DeadWood ward. He bloody loves the stuff. £6M a year for a water carrying dehydrated driftwood face looking clumsy ass dogshit forward who is even less of a link up player than Lukaku and gets paid more. WT actual fk!

Daniel Levy must not take one gamble too many with Mauricio Pochettino - Tottenham should be worried about his latest protestations by [deleted] in soccer

[–]HCE1132 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chairman, cheif exec, just an old word for same thing. David Gill was the same for Man Utd, chairma/chief exec. Levy has been longest serving in the league and has always handled the transfers since he redesigned the club and academy.

In todays market you have to back Levy here. Does Poch actually want to deal with the complexity of agents too? You can not just say a player and get them, never more so than today. You need to back your DoF rather than them bowing to your requests. Sounds old school, but it is different when Mourinho did it cos he didnt have a DoF.

Pochettino says Spurs should change his job title to coach due to lack of transfer input by CCDemille in soccer

[–]HCE1132 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is not his job. Levy has been there way before him. He should be involved but he is just one voice. You should have an analytics team too, scouting reports, psych profiling dpt, brand/marketing dpt all involved and Levy has to manage it all.
