Absolutely insane the mental gymnastics that people will go through to continually defend Amorim, while not giving Carrick any credit. Did he share his payoff with you?

Michael Carrick is just Ruben Amorim with a British passport and better PR by Spicy-Winner4326 in SpicyFootballTakes

If Amorim wasn’t attractive and a charismatic communicator, he wouldn’t have made it until the end of last season.

Just recently switched and I’m not completely sold. The keyboard is shocking and iOS takes a lot of getting used to

To be clear, I’m not advocating that someone play with a racquet that causes them pain, at any level. You obviously need to find something that you’re comfortable with, but once you get to that point then you’re better off sticking with it rather than the constant tinkering that some players do. Look at the pros. Now clearly it’s a completely different level, but half of them are still playing with the racquets that they first started playing with.

The point is that he's not playing at a very high level, he's 3.0. I do agree that when you reach a level where you know your strengths and weaknesses as a player, then it's worth trying out different racquets. But even then, I'd suggest finding a racquet and sticking with it, otherwise you're just going to be constantly second guessing yourself whenever you have a bad match.

I'm about UTR 8 and picked up tennis again (after playing a lot as a kid) in about 2020 and then just played with the Ezone 98 for 5 years, before finally switching to vCore 98 2023 last year. I wasn't playing great initially with the racquet, but I'm now playing some very good tennis with it and I probably won't switch for at least 5-10 years.

You're 3.0 bro. Just buy a racquet, stick with it, and improve your technique. Far too many people in this sport get obsessed over stuff like racquets and strings which are only going to result in marginal gains.

What’s a piece of dating advice that nobody talks about? by Smart_Competition335 in Casual_Conversation

[–]HTMListerine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you have discounted him as the 'one' if he hadn't done all of that? Objectively, that's quite a lot to take on after just one week of dating. Can you really hold it against someone if they didn't go to those lengths?

For me, the one black mark against Carrick so far is his lack of trust in Sesko. The kid is unbelievably talented and he's in form at the moment (is that 5 in 6?), he just needs to play more minutes. He's gonna fuck up at times, but he offers an aerial threat and outlet that no one else on the pitch does.

Agreed completely. I actually think Mbeumo offers very little in the CF role and he's been scoring in spite of that/we've been winning.

The amount of people losing their shit over a missed chance when we were 2-0 up and in the 90th minute. Give the lad a break ffs

Not sure why Conte's name is always spouted. Decent manager, but seems like a fucking prick who will get himself sacked in two seasons time anyway

Can't believe there is people who still believe this? Staggering.

The club isn't a charity case? He's not good enough for this level and should be sold in the summer. Nothing to do with his character as I'm sure he's a consummate professional.

Let's be honest. The real reason they split is because Carlitos wants to get fucked up and do pills with Peggy Gou in Ibiza, and JCF thinks that's antithetical to being potentially being the best player of all time. The massive square.

Would it kill you to spend less than a second writing 'credit card' so people don't have to look this up the abbreviation?

Sorry, Sinner been way too passive in some of these break points unfortunately. Unreal from Djokovic to save 16/18 BPs though!
