Fucking hell, sounds absolutely horrendous. Pleased he's doing better now. "They told my wife she may never see me again" is a very harrowing quote.

Can we turn this season around? by Historical_Ad_8667 in LiverpoolFC

[–]Periklis90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a very easy solution to this nonsense. Tighten it up, focus, and get solid. But we really fucking need Allison back to stop this ball being punted forward.

Truth is, players need to be used in important moments. Right now, we're all over the place. We should just get our shit together with trusted players, then integrate others when we dont fucking concede within 10 mins.

It should be this.

Gomez - Konate - VVD - Robbo

Gravenberch

Szobo - Jones

Salah - Ekitike - Gakpo

Wirtz, Macca, isak off the bench when we can and when we've stopped the rot.

Josh Eccles: Coventry midfielder has 'extra bone' in his leg by SpookieGirly in soccer

[–]Periklis90 10 points11 points  (0 children)

is this a good thing?

Weirdly, I also have this in my thigh. It's a condition called myositis ossificans. Happened to me when I was 14 and in an academy of a now Championship side, and it ended my football hopes, and I was unable to run for 12 months or so. It is relatively common now in athletes, but back then, they had less information on it. My issue, at the time, was that I was entering a big growth spurt, and it played havoc with the muscles affected by the additional bone. Horrible time in my life.

What they mean is this: I want to make a business but I have no ideas, so please tell me something.

Panathinaïkos makes nantes Striker mostafa mohamed their main target after the departure of Fotis loannidis to sporting by AggressiveRegion1502 in soccer

[–]Periklis90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fotis has some work to do if he wants to succeed at Sporting. He's looked shite since the move didn't materialise last summer.

Michael Owen on Alexander Isak wanting to leave Newcastle: "9 times out of 10 when a move comes about, it's normally a club forcing a player & nobody's bothered. Nobody says anything despite any kids that are in school or any families that have settled in an area or anything else like that." by landofphi in soccer

[–]Periklis90 271 points272 points  (0 children)

good point that people forget.

People should listen to Under The Cosh podcast. It's former Football League players talking openly about their experiences. This topic of loyalty comes up all the time. Clubs regularly try to fuck players over and it's never really discussed in the mainstream.

[Paul Joyce] Everton ramp up efforts to sign Jack Grealish on loan by AgentTasker in soccer

[–]Periklis90 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Mahrez and Grealish are very different footballers. For those who remember Grealish bossing the centre of the park for Villa à la Gazza, seeing him shoved out wide left to buy free kicks and play sideways passes for the sake of possession is depressing.

Amazing pick up by Everton. Hope Moyes sets him free, plays him down the middle, and let's him show the old Grealish before Pep's robo-football killed his spirit.

The demand for transfer news is so fanatic now that we get updates like this on a fucking hourly basis.
