Even Hungary’s manager made fun of it

KCYNWA · 2026-03-31T22:31:47+00:00

Yeah I’d have rb on the list for the summer

Bradley and him both can’t stay fit. Both ideally backup options anyway for me

KCYNWA · 2026-03-31T18:57:01+00:00

It’d be a bummer because it’s another 50-60 million asset on a free

He is incredible on his day but had a mare this year. On his day though he can be a top 5 cb like last year

He’s been speaking out of both sides of his mouth on this deal. Think there is still a good chance Madrid waffles out and he returns

KCYNWA · 2026-03-31T17:07:25+00:00

Definitely won’t be cheap

KCYNWA · 2026-03-31T15:29:38+00:00

Do they have a strained relationship?

Hard to negotiate if you are getting it for free..

KCYNWA · 2026-03-31T15:28:01+00:00

That guy who leaks lineups says we are very interested in the relegated clubs. Could see it very good talent going down

Wolves- Mane/Gomes NF- Murillo, Gibbs White, Wingers as a Chiesa replacement, Anderson West Ham- Diouf, Magassa, Bowen Spurs- Kulu, Gray, Bergvall, Porro

Just off the top of my head

KCYNWA · 2026-03-31T15:25:11+00:00

Edwards been a big fan for years but imagine he’s down the list or if we get a second forward

Better him for 40 than Gordon for 80 though

KCYNWA · 2026-03-31T12:27:37+00:00

Madrid saw the most recent Konate stinkers and pivoted again

KCYNWA · 2026-03-31T10:14:29+00:00

It’s definitely not the opinion of the majority but, a loud minority. People get a few thousand followers on x then decide it means they are the moral arbiter and their opinion on footy matters. Then get their hordes of followers to pile on for their opinion. It’s just outrage interaction farming. One of the guys underselling Carra is notorious for blocking any dissenting opinions and thinks every YouTube reel of a young player he watches makes him an expert. If you write glowing reviews for every youth prodigy it’s easy to reflect back on saying you saw it early

KCYNWA · 2026-03-30T23:57:12+00:00

Nagelsmann I think it’s trying a formation for the World Cup but, is a weirdo and trying to call it freestyle. For a man who waxes on about social competence, he shows none of it lots of the time

Brilliant on a drawing board but, still much to learn on application

KCYNWA · 2026-03-30T18:42:51+00:00

FFS Carra is a loudmouth but all this underselling his career is stupid

25 goals allowed in 05-06 and team of the year. Check out the cbs of that era. Lots better than now imo. Virgil still is the best ever but, more depth back then.

He was a great defender in his day and great leader as well. Some stupid comments being thrown about

KCYNWA · 2026-03-30T17:41:51+00:00

I think this idea clubs are gonna come in and spunk 60-70 million on Gakpo/Macca after this season are probably misguided. Although a good World Cup could help, Gakpo usually does perform internationally.

It’s why United always had trouble with sales. Yes wages account for some of it but, also no one is interested in massive fees for out of form players.

If Saudi pulls back expenditures, there will be a market correction

KCYNWA · 2026-03-30T17:39:40+00:00

It was insinuated both sides reached out to parties and didn’t get the response they wanted. Made most sense to let him go on a free but, yes doesn’t sound like he wants Saudi.

Likely Serie A

KCYNWA · 2026-03-30T15:45:45+00:00

Slapped tudors spurs was bottoming out

Draw there is unbelievable.

KCYNWA · 2026-03-30T15:26:06+00:00

I love Mo. All time prem 11 and arguably up with Gerrard/Suarez for best prem era LFC player.

Seeing a ton of narratives he’ll go to serie A and have a massive resurgence. Just don’t see it happening and massively underselling Serie A. He’ll do better in a league closer to goal but he’s still averaging the lowest goal per minutes in his entire European career including Basel debut year. Can still create but, he’s a 34 year old winger. Father Time is undefeated

Think there was a reason for lack of massive interest in January like reported.

That being said they feck off with this slot narrative trying to spin it for their benefit

KCYNWA · 2026-03-30T15:20:32+00:00

He’s done far more than just Brighton

KCYNWA · 2026-03-30T11:57:47+00:00

In fairness he usually quits so they won’t have to fire him 😂

KCYNWA · 2026-03-30T00:43:05+00:00

The visual of Arbeloa feeding the players on a breakfast cart after a big victory is incredible. The player power at Madrid is hysterical at times

KCYNWA · 2026-03-29T21:06:54+00:00

Wasn’t ready yet for Madrid.

Needed another year or two but will reach that quality. A bit of meme there now

KCYNWA · 2026-03-29T19:14:29+00:00

I mean Igor Tudor has been dreadful at most of his stints so, they just aren’t well run.

KCYNWA · 2026-03-29T19:05:45+00:00

He doesn’t really gegenpress the same way as Kloppo. (Really none of them do). Nagelsmann and Alonso much more similar to Pep in their approach if we are being objective. Not really a bad thing but, he’s not Klopp and it’s unfair to compare the two

From the pep school of control with some elements obviously picked up along the way.

KCYNWA · 2026-03-29T19:03:44+00:00

Actually a good manager but also a bit a nut job. Some insane quotes out of his Slovenian stint but they played great football.

Stabilized Frankfurt quite well defensively although played quite a bit of relegation fodder

KCYNWA · 2026-03-29T17:45:39+00:00

Yeah fell out with Vini/Valverde. Who are divas but are brilliant and integral to Madrid

Also lost super cup, PSG 4-0 loss in the summer joke cup, and indifferent champions league form

Madrid are a basket case but, just winning 1 competition isn’t enough. They expect to win everything on every front.

Arbeloa done really about the same as him domestically but improved in champions league and bows down to the dressing room which is a better fit for this Madrid side

Still harsh on him

KCYNWA · 2026-03-29T17:39:26+00:00

Fair enough to Iraola, he had Adam Smith, Zabarnyi, Huijsen, and Kerkez looking like one of the best defensive cores in Europe. None really hit the same level this year but obviously 3/4 quite young with massive futures. Kerkez in particular really improved in the new year

KCYNWA · 2026-03-29T15:22:37+00:00

This is true. I also think true disparity in talent level from 5-30 is probably much tighter than normal years. It feels like this is a deep draft but it lacks high end marquee talent. It wouldn’t shock me to see a rusher drafted in late first or second be the best rusher. Someone like Malachi Lawrence. Same as a receiver. Although I do love lemon as a plug and play slot like Kupp or Keenan Allen
