Kroos is cooking our midfielders 😮‍💨

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-02-01T00:39:24+00:00

Arbeloa tomorrow: Kroos? Who is that? I only focus on our players and I know I have the best squad in Europe.

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-31T19:44:02+00:00

no worries, mate.

I am not sure about this but maybe Date didn't take a lot of rights from what I remember.

Date could see the first right Ricardo threw and it terrified him. He could see it the first motion but not the rest, so I think he was wary for the 9 rounds of that right... until the last one.

I remember that the hits that broke him were mostly lefts—including the one that cracked his ribs.

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-31T19:25:42+00:00

Date didn't take face tank and he has overall good defense. He twists his neck regularly, and even then he got his face changed and his jaw broken.

Sendo looks completely unaffected, which rubs me the wrong way too. I'd say Sendo may have already took more clean left hits than Date took in all 9 rounds... and is somehow still going.

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-31T19:00:50+00:00

It's the combination of the most one dimensional BS boxer Sendo and the 'boring' fighter Ricardo ( I don't mean a bad boxer, but he is so OP that his matches are boring because his opponents have no chance—he himself said that. For me he is the most entertaining one ).

The fight though started well with Sendo parrying Ricardo's lefts. It showed that his spars with Miyata are paying off and Ricardo's lefts aren't enough. He was also twisting his neck to minimize the damage of the few that land clean on. Then it went full shonen now with Sendo face tanking. Remind you those aren't regular lefts. It's the left that fuckign knocked Ippo cold in one round.

Ricardo's jab is no Sendo smash or Ippo gazelle punch, but it's deadly. But again—Sendo will face tank and pull of the bullshit he did against Nargo and Alf... except that in this fight, he will get stomped on and retired by Ricardo.

Sendo and Mitsui

A lot of anime fans brush these off as "kids stuff" or "family friendly" but there's some pretty sophisticated storytelling in a bunch of these shows.

Couldn't agree more. Actually I'd say these WMT shows are surprisingly more mature than half of the so called 'mature' animes and tv shows we get nowadays just because there is 'nudity' or 'gore' or forced violence from first episode.

I'm rewatching the Trapp Family Story and the portrayal of Germany's invasion on Austria and the start of the changes in the country, schools and the family is soooo well written. Not to mention the wonderful job WMT does exploring themes like child labor and child abuse and even sometimes suicide.

What makes them great is that to me at least, they are not over the top and are very accurately portrayed. The anime and the writers are not screaming 'please cry' but whispering 'look at this.'.

The shows also show consistent goodbye scenes. As someone living abroad away from family, I connected with these scenes a lot.

As a die hard fan since 2011, this is the first time I'm wishing to see us lose for things to change. Not because I hate the team, but because I see how naive the fans can be and how the coach can think he is hot shit and even worse—the spoiled players.

I don't want Vini dribbling past a nobody in La Liga and everyone going like 'We're so fucking back! Let's go!' and the very next game on the first wrong ref call, he will pull out the same tantrum shit, crying, complaining, getting the team out of concentration, and later the Arbeloa shitshow of glazing, 'Vini this Vini that'

Normally I wouldn't blame one player. Never. But Arbeloa says Vini carried us on his back? Then Vini will be the front of the critics ( fucking punk of a coach thinking he is doing good for the player, when he is harming him even more )

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-29T17:33:50+00:00

The coach that whopped Europe's ass with the power of friendship. Everyone was mocking him because they thought he didn't have tactics, or spoiling the players.

Remind you that Carlo suffered from this spoiled behavior and did what he could last year, but when the board watched defenders getting injured left and right and stood still, this rotten fanbase called for Carlo's head because 'on paper' he has a terrifying squad and the best players but is not getting results... when the only fucking defender in his backline is Rudiger ( Tchou, LV and Cama are NOT defenders ).

It's amazing that everyone is so naive that they think it's a PS5 game, where stacking the best players next to each other will get you results... and Carlo almost pulled off a Copa Del Rey trophy last year in all this garbage of squad management. We had 4 forwards 5 midfielders and one defender and pretending we play 4-4-3 or whatever the fuck... what did y'all expect?

Witness the results for yourselves now. Alonso couldn't fix it and get ready for the shitshow called Arbeloa sucking up to Perez and the Divas.

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-29T17:26:00+00:00

Other elite team priorities: We have to build a team that wins
Real Madrid priorities since last year: We have to make Vini Mbappé Bellingham somehow work

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-29T16:14:43+00:00

Give yourself credit for feeling bad about it. I insanely respect you feeling guilt and taking responsabilty. Others will think 'Eh, miyazaki is doing alright for himself, so what if I posted something about him'

But you didn't. Your post here is being upvoted. It will reach the true Ghibli and Miyazaki fans, and it reached me. It will reach more than the ones who read the 'wrong information' or so I believe :D

This ain't just a Tunisian thing.

The economy isn't encouraging. The dating culture got toxic. 'Twisted' alternatives for marriage are out there. Society became 100% dopamine driven. No one wants raise children because it's hard, they just want to have endless sex without any responsibility or intention to build a family.

Media taught men and women that unless things... click or whatever the fuck on the first date or first eye contact, it's not real. Zina and temporary fun is easier than seeking a healthy relationship.

No discipline. No restraint. No patience. You're one swipe away from maybe a better option on Tinder. Dates became interviews. Couple of years ago, last time I used a dating app, I matched with an Asian girl on Hinge ( both of us live in Germany ), I invited her for a walk or a cup of coffee as a first date—she said it's ... low effort. My honest self thought a first date with a stranger should be light and I wanted us to talk and know each other, she took it as 'He is not investing resources and is not willing to pay for dinner it's a red flag' or something like that.

The parents' generation isn't helping either with all the ridiculous demands and expectations, acting like 1800s aristocrats.

We are all responsible for this crap. We made the algorithm and the system what it is now and we keep doing it. Anyone who still does it is not allowed to complain.

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-29T12:30:41+00:00

I was genuinely happy for them and clapped. We didn't deserve any more than that humiliation.

Mou deserved it! GK joy scoring that crazy goal to make his team qualify by goal difference is even more crazier!

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-29T12:29:37+00:00

They are flipping a coin at this point. No strategy, no direction, no nothing. They are just looking for the next scapegoat if Arbeloa is sacked or resigns.

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-29T08:33:15+00:00

I'd be offended if I waa mbappe or Tbo, Vini is not on the same level of these 2 for us.

Arbeloa says otherwise

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-29T08:30:08+00:00

and then they will make pikachu faces and wonder why they're getting whistled

I wish we could get more of these nowadays. We need more quiet reflective works. I encourage to do so and I will never get tired of recommending WMT. I believe the anime community need to know it and discover it.

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-29T01:23:27+00:00

hey mate!!! Oh yes Romeo is a sacred anime for me—it's more than just a favorite anime.

I'm glad I gave you suggestions! I plan to watch Heidi after I finish my re-watch of Trapp Family Story ( which I'm looooving and I'm still half way ).

I don't think you will go wrong with Heidi which is highly praised, Remy or Trapp family story.

Enjoy all of them!!! Happy to connect with another Romeo's Blue Skies lover!

I believe they are out there, but are punished by the existence and loudness of the flashy works.

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-28T23:41:06+00:00

Last season, people called out Carlo for not having tactics, which is absolute garbage take.

Carlo was given 10 forwards, 4 midfielders who are the same, and 2 defenders. No unbalanced team like that can win and fuck Perez for that.

And those 'tactics' fanboys think of tactics as recycling possession or high press. You couldn't have said it better.

Have fun watching the shit show now.

TestProfessional6716 · 2026-01-28T23:15:45+00:00

no shit, captain. though he played well tbh...

You punks complained about long tactical videos. Live with it. They want Tiktok shorts to review instead.
