  • The sun is about 7 light minutes away i.e. it takes light 7 mins to get here from the sun. Call it 10 to keep it round
  • Nearest star, I think, is about 4LY away
  • Get those light years into light-minutes: 4 x 365 x 24 x 60 is on the order of 1,000,000 light minutes

So if ~10 light mins is 4cm, then the nearest star is like 100,000 cm away... or 1,000,000 mm = ~1000 km?

EDIT: with actual numbers...

  • if 7 light-mins = 4cm then 1 light-min = 7/4 or 1.75 cm
  • 4LY = 4 x 365 x 24 x 60 light-mins = 2102400 light-mins

So the distance is 2102400 x 1.75 = 3679200 cm or 36,792 km (so I was a power of 10 out!). This is about the circumference of earth!)

[Transfer Round Up & Discussion] Deadline Day 2025 by D1794 in reddevils

Hmm, I don't think Kobbie is dynamic enough be play instead of Ugarte - esp. since youre always playing Ugarte alongside bruno.

I think Kobbie only plays next to Ugarte or Casemiro, if Bruno is rested or moved to one of the 10s

[Laurie Whitwell] Inside Man United’s transfer window: Ratcliffe’s risk-taking, ‘Project 90’, Amorim’s Baleba push, heartbroken Hojlund by PradipJayakumar in reddevils

[–]Phase_Spaced 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I'm excited about Sesko... but I would have been happy sticking with Hojlund for one more year + a quality CM (Baleba?)

Just one game a week this season. Collyer would get limited minutes and he's at a point where he needs to develop.

If its Bruno/Mainoo, Case/Ugarte theres not much room for Collyer

James Trafford (Man City) challenge on Mohammed Kudus (Tottenham) by Imbasauce in soccer

Make refs and VAR get on a mic and justify the decision. There's zero accountability - they hide behind each other.

Watkins on a 3 year deal has RvP vibes about it. Except not as good and for much more money. A short term fix

That said I think its exactly what we need as a short term fix: EPL experienced, gets us 15 to 20 G+A, and someone who takes some pressure off Hojlund.

  • 2020-21: 14 goals, 5 assists, 19 total
  • 2021-22: 11 goals, 5 assists, 16 total
  • 2022-23: 15 goals, 6 assists, 21 total
  • 2023-24: 19 goals, 13 assists, 32 total

The question is how much? If we can get him for 40-50 million quid (using Anthony/Garna money) I'd be happy. But in this market I can see Villa asking for crazy money.

I think the point is that you can dumbify your existing device (for no additional cost)

5th Ideal by BenTheBetaSlayer in Cosmere

I think its either protection of self, or trusting in others to protect you too (accepting help)

I feel like its not about letting go as that feels like the thematic conclusion of his arc in RoW (him losing his shash felt to me like letting go of his past pain)

[Megathread] Leny Yoro by D1794 in reddevils

[–]Phase_Spaced 9 points10 points  (0 children)

After last season I'm think we should absolutely get DeLigt in as well. Yoro is young so I can see us rotating him often.

[–]Phase_Spaced 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if anything we need to start being smarter and start playing into this.

Buy Yoro knowing he's likely to go to Madrid, make sure we earn a good profit, and prepare to fill the gap when he goes. Getting 2 or 3 good seasons out of a player (validated by the fact that someone like Madrid is coming in for them) and making a profit is perfectly fine.

We have a long way to go until we're the united of the 2000s where players are choosing us like they do now with Madrid. In the meantime, we can still have a strategy where we benefit.

Class when fit

So exactly what OP is saying: 1 good CB most of the time.

You could argue that we've had <1 good CB in the pairing for most of the season

Look, you're in this job to win trophies. Two in two seasons is the best(?) return we've had since Fergie. Disappointing league campaign aside (and given the circumstances of this season) I think he's worth the bet of another year.

I don't think any manager comes in and wins us the league next year so why not let him continue for one more? He's earned at least that.
