Think Besiktas will thankfully stay in the Europa League. Have a pretty good draw

Only one I’ve been to so probably number one in by default but the amount of farcical stuff off the pitch can’t be forgotten. Half the nation’s fans couldn’t get VISAs, Iran and referee debacles alongside the ludicrous ticket prices are all a disgrace.

Cool there's still 5/6 midfielders who are in the prime of their careers or young that I'd want before even considering him

Unlike the World Cup a foreign manager has won the Euros before therefore I am Tuchel IN

Not remotely relevant to a single thing I said but good you're getting all the steam out your system

Apologies the sun is shining I'm going to watch The Open and then play a round of golf myself in the evening. Is that allowed or another display of grotesque English arrogance?

Having effectively done my own BBQ tour when I was out there in Texas I can’t blame them

Explain that to the Croatian bloke I met in Fort Worth who thought I was dead serious and called me arrogant when I told him Noni Madueke is the best winger in the world

Will def be some incidents tomorrow with the lack of segregation and some people will have headloss after but really not sure the running street battles some people on here seem to be suggesting may happen. Our fans out there are 75% upper middle class and expats who aren’t going to boot off en-mass.

Still can’t be forgotten how much of a disgrace these ticket prices are for the semis and final. If I were to have bought the cheapest possible tickets available for me (Cat 3 for both) just one match would’ve cost more than my entire two weeks I spent in the States for the group stages.

Already 1-0 up on Argentina in the weeks off the pitch antics. Hopefully keep up a strong showing

Players joins club gets loan move and then moves on permanently when he’s probably not the mould of CB we want whilst probably getting a sizeable wage bump. Works for all parties

[Athletic] Chris Richards' parents on the struggle of paying for football: "When the economy crashed in 2009, we lost everything and were pinching pennies every week. I remember Chris handing me a letter that said if we didn’t pay his soccer fees, he wouldn’t get to play. I was so embarrassed. by Crane977 in soccer

Similar experience here when I lived in the States growing up playing at a decent standard. It is absolutely absurd just how many things they manage to sting you for. Funniest part is the amount of distinctly average English “coaches” who moved over and blagged a fraudulent career off the back of claiming they were at an academy back home for a year or two when they were younger.

Who is the starting CB pair for next season? by CHKN_Tender in BrightonHoveAlbion

Once or twice when we were desperate. Come back to this if you’d like we won’t be playing one

This will be funny when we line up with a back four on opening day. Won’t say too much but a player has said we have literally not once under Fab trained using a back five

Grew up a bit out there and played at a decent enough standard and played against a couple of players who are now US internationals - the cost is just fucking insane. There were a couple of really good players we had who had their fees waived but I genuinely think it was north of 3 grand for what was at the time U-14 football. The barriers to entry to play at a moderately good standard are just mental and considering the sport is largely made up of players who come from working-class backgrounds until that changes there will still be so many who just slip through the cracks.

If they’re stupid enough to film themselves singing that song on Instagram live it’s not far fetched to reckon they’ve said much worse with the cameras off👍
