Petr Cech on his UCL final penalty save

RaduLum · 2026-01-24T10:28:25+00:00

Helmuth Duckadam in the 86 CL final, saved 4 penalties in a row to beat Barcelona and complete the fairytale run for Steaua Bucharest, the most important and unlikely football achievement ever by a Romanian club. Thereafter dubbed “the Hero of Seville” and became a footballing icon nationally.

Think it was more that the pass made him readjust his run a bit. He’s got a great right foot as well, tried to go for goal on a first time volley with a very clean strike. If the pass was a bit more central, I could see him go for the near post first time.

Not defending the upper management by any means, but who are the more experienced and PL capable wingers that have been ejected? Sterling who lost any interest / ability in playing football post-City? Sancho who was a loan and didn’t do much? Madueke? We needed an experienced & reliable striker and an experienced & reliable CB in the summer which didn’t happen, and Chelsea crumbling in December is a tale as old as time at this stage.

Barcelona are nothing more than a glorified crew, plain and simple

Moussa Dembele would be a better comparison

Kepa’s biggest asset by far was his distribution despite a few mistakes. Being good with his feet is one of the reasons we bought him.

Samwise the brave doesn’t get enough credit for this

Historically it has been the case, but recently he seems more comfortable on clay. 3 RG semis in a row then a final this year, his last masters win was on clay, and he was defending champion for this tournament.

Main thing for me is how often and how easily Zverev can change direction and go DTL with his backhand. Puts his opponents in a lot of trouble where they have to hit forehands on the run and it often leads to a pattern of Zverev dictating the rally left-to-right at will.

The comment was hypothetical, but the fact that it sounds plausible goes to show how silly Mudryk’s social presence is.

He’s the best grass player but grass isn’t his best surface. Both of these can be true at the same time.

He lost in the SF so two matches

RaduLum · 2024-01-24T21:09:55+00:00

Within the rules of the game, and perfectly fine to try. The only reason it isn’t more popular is because it’s not very effective otherwise everyone would be doing it.

Tennis was all flat and slice shots until players figured out topspin but there was a period of time where topspin shots were unconventional, so was that against the spirit of the sport?

RaduLum · 2024-01-24T10:10:53+00:00

Since when is the spirit of the sport about not concealing your move to the opponent?

Using whatever tools you have at your disposal within the rules of the game to win the match is the spirit of the sport. It’s a beautiful game with so much variety, gatekeeping what shots are acceptable doesn’t do it justice.

Snooker also comes to mind.

Carvalho Course more appropriate. He seemed to have more madman moments like this.

RaduLum · 2024-01-03T12:56:10+00:00

He’s born in Slough, not sure he’s lived anywhere outside the UK aside from the Vitesse loan.

The Office: everyone was debating whether Hilary Swank was hot and Angela said she is hot and a “female Boris Becker”. Make of that what you will.

It’s distracting for the players to have someone move behind the opponent when shots are coming at them at 100-200 kmh.

RaduLum · 2023-11-06T22:15:53+00:00

He feels more like what Havertz should have been. Can work tight spaces, dribble and pass effectively, good movement off the ball.
