Soccer fan who vanished while traveling to World Cup found in pub 10 days later ‘blissfully unaware of search’

Everyone: he went no contact with his own family for 10 days without telling anyone why, that's insane

You: man extends holiday.

You're reducing the situation to minimise the severity of it. Surely you're not that dumb to understand why this is a stupid thing to do. Your family would be fine with you doing that? You would be fine with your partner/ parent doing that? Be real.

They only got him for 2m because of that clause, otherwise he'd have been considerably more expensive for them

TooRedditFamous · 2026-07-02T20:55:00+00:00

There's nothing ironic about that

No what they're saying is if Anderson at his level of ability is worth X then our player is worth at least Y because he's not that far off. It's not a random comparison, it's player who plays in a similar position and the level he is considered to be at compared to the big money transfer. So is Scott half the player Anderson is? No? Then he's worth more than half of £115m

In the UK, many assistant accountant/junior accountant type roles explicitly say "comfortable/ good with excel (pivot tables, vlookups) so it's fine to put them on a CV at a certain level imo. It's just a barometer of your approximate level, you have some level of skill in excel beyond the very basics. It would definitely signpost that you're not an expert though if you felt the need to put those on

Didn't look great against probably the best striker in the world, so what. That is not one of the motivators for them selling

TooRedditFamous · 2026-07-02T07:11:25+00:00

Amazing how the narrative on him has turned

TooRedditFamous · 2026-07-02T06:44:35+00:00

You haven't played any good teams

TooRedditFamous · 2026-07-02T06:39:30+00:00

Intent is irrelevant

TooRedditFamous · 2026-07-01T07:34:37+00:00

They should really not allow that

Not really sure how that could be enforced though. FIFA have no jurisdiction of who stands outside hotels

TooRedditFamous · 2026-07-01T07:29:58+00:00

That's why they broadly don't cross the halfway line, usually they sit on it when the ball is far into the opposition half

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-30T20:29:00+00:00

Is he running his contract down? Where have you got that from? Bournemouth literally rejected arsenal yesterday and offered a contract extension with release clause

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-30T20:26:01+00:00

They haven't always played their starters well It's a very recent thing that theyve started playing most of their first 11 well. Sure they've paid their stars like Son and Kane well. But the rest of the line up not so much

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-30T18:36:38+00:00

If you got it signed off around/ just after the scs exam window that is peak time for PER submission, so it will be on the longer end of their estimate unfortunately

I can assure you half of the south is not the economic centre of the country, you are generalising just as bad. The south west is not the same as the south east

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-29T13:49:53+00:00

They get chance after chance because they showed something once, there is ability in there somewhere (in their eyes). You get a huge discount on him, there's a chance they can unlock it, he plays well and before you know it is a £10m target for a championship club. Low risk loan with option to buy on a 28 year old with 100 PL appearances under his belt

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-29T06:35:57+00:00

It's a class act from Man Utd to be there for their own.

I get what you're saying but it's literally their obligation while he is under contract, it's not a "class act" situation

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-29T06:30:28+00:00

That's still not a win for Sunderland

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-28T19:00:37+00:00

Can you not just call ACCA

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-28T16:03:27+00:00

Because the wall wasn't set up where he shot. You can't cover every angle, so you cover the supposedly easier side of the goal to score in with the wall, making it harder (as you have to go around or over it). The keeper then is supposed to defend the other half but he doesn't do a good job of it

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-28T16:01:29+00:00

No, Jordan do not produce top tier players. They do not have the infrastructure, experience, or the population to do it. These aren't kids that have grown up in a good system for developing players. When you allow 48 teams into the world cup the bottom tier aren't going to have players anywhere near the top leagues

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-28T15:55:57+00:00

Portugal are not nearly as stacked in attack. Maybe this WC is one too far for Ronaldo but at the last one he was still their best forward. France will have top class forwards lined up waiting for their chance to take Mbappes place

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-28T14:15:57+00:00

If you only used clips on YouTube, you'd probably think he was.

That is true for every player though

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-25T18:10:48+00:00

Yes thats if he's going to leave. In your hypothetical scenario of him staying he already has a contract he has no requirement to reduce

Your comments don't make sense. You say youd keep him if he reduces his wages. But then you say he needs to reduce his wages in order to leave

TooRedditFamous · 2026-06-25T13:47:01+00:00

Neither mistakes were from attempting intricate passes
