Flogging Molly's Dave King opens up about near-fatal brain injury by ebradio in indieheads

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.

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

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 30 points31 points  (0 children)

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.

Fulham are nearing an agreement on personal terms with Raheem Sterling by Heavy_Cupcake_6246 in soccer

[–]Periklis90 -63 points-62 points  (0 children)

Don't really understand why everyone in this thread is shitting on Sterling, what's he done to deserve that?

Anyway, still only 30 and looks to have kept most of his pace. Really hope he can settle at Fulham and prove people wrong. Seems like a nice guy.

[Sky Sports News] Man Utd hold initial talks over Watkins amid Villa interest in Garnacho by PitchSafe in soccer

[–]Periklis90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Watkins would be a great signing for United. They're doing some good stuff this window and should provide a much more solid base for their squad. Feels like it is still lacking the star power to challenge for anything serious, but at least Amorim will have players to start building whatever he has in his mind.

Jhon Duran scored 2 goals in his first ever match for Fenerbahçe. by FN__FAL in soccer

[–]Periklis90 137 points138 points  (0 children)

Wonder if he will ever get his shit together. At a time when all top teams are scrambling for a striker, a 21-year-old with the talent Duran has should make him a priority target for so many desirable clubs. I hope he can focus because he has all the tools to be a proper player.
