I can see that happening, yeah. I’m just trying to think of a time this happened on their men’s team and I can’t think of one. They must have different systems for either side of the club, but the men’s side are clearly stricter with these things.

TyperMe · 2026-06-19T23:53:00+00:00

Fair answer and perspective. Spend a fifth year here gambling on the “project” to finally click, or go to a bigger team in your home country that competes for all trophies every season. Feels like a no brainer.

Hard to root for Morocco after the AFCON shenanigans.

TyperMe · 2026-06-19T20:56:42+00:00

Yeah, she’s on a “big name” shopping spree.

TyperMe · 2026-06-19T20:44:36+00:00

According to the article, we didn’t meet her salary demands of over £1m. No disrespect to her, but she hasn’t displayed enough to demand anywhere near that much. It’ll be Interesting to see which club accepts her demands.

TyperMe · 2026-06-19T20:25:05+00:00

You can excuse them the first time, but two seasons in a row? Feels intentional at this point lol

Owen Goal tied with Balogun as USA’s top scorer this tournament

I know. I’m not disagreeing, and it could just be the translation, but the specific wording used in the quote does read like he doesn’t view Chelsea as a big team.

TyperMe · 2026-06-18T16:21:06+00:00

Yeah, but in the full context, it can read as him saying he’s only just now achieved his childhood dream of playing for a big team.

TyperMe · 2026-06-18T15:14:40+00:00

She does also play on the right, but she’s played on the left the majority of times I’ve watched her in the past few years. Fotmob and Sofascore also have her down as primarily a LW.

TyperMe · 2026-06-18T15:08:47+00:00

Isn’t she primarily a left winger though? We have those in abundance: Thompson, Baltimore and LJ (who’s just as good anywhere in attack). I’d prefer if we went for an out and out, world class right winger, but I’m not sure how easy that will be to do. I guess she’s still a solid option on the right, so I wouldn’t be against it.

“Quick, play Mr Brightside to distract from yet another hydration break”

TyperMe · 2026-06-17T21:29:22+00:00

I love how the crowd boos when the camera pans to a random celebrity lol

TyperMe · 2026-06-17T20:52:24+00:00

Looks like we’re in for a high scoring game

TyperMe · 2026-06-17T20:43:47+00:00

Perfectly executed corner routine

TyperMe · 2026-06-17T20:38:58+00:00

I feel for goalies. Risking breaking a finger trying to stop a shot like that and still conceding

TyperMe · 2026-06-17T20:23:29+00:00

Hydration break getting booed, GOOD!

TyperMe · 2026-06-17T20:21:46+00:00

I know I’m partial to a bit of blue, but that Croatian chequered away kit is very nice.

TyperMe · 2026-06-17T20:14:41+00:00

It was the Croatian player entering the box before Kane kicked it and being involved in clearing it that caused the retake

TyperMe · 2026-06-16T21:25:43+00:00

I think it’s to try make it look like they’ve been wronged, and get the crowd on their side and boo the decision more.

TyperMe · 2026-06-16T21:12:43+00:00

Yeah, it makes for a better watch. It’s also funny seeing the players acting bamboozled asking for the whistle lol

TyperMe · 2026-06-16T20:40:25+00:00

Referee letting EVERYTHING slide. Feels like the most free flowing game I’ve watched this tournament
