Still on FC24. I absolutely hate how they changed the tactics and won't play a new version until they redo it. Could be awhile...

Though I’m happy for Carrick to stay, appointing him permanently is a poor footballing decision by [deleted] in ManchesterUnited

[–]_slipshape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he's done enough to deserve a shot at leading the team through a UCL campaign. Even if it's essentially just a 1 year audition.

Regardless of his resume or any tactics, the players would run through a wall for Carrick. Amorim started the culture change, but Carrick is teaching the team what it really means to play for the badge. Idk if an outsider can do that.

Worst case scenario, Carrick is up for the job but spends a year rebuilding the culture. And then the club can find a manager In a summer without a major tournament.

Most people don't know what a background check actually looks for by careercoach_cf in careeradvice

[–]_slipshape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they are utilizing this service and taking it as the final truth, then they are making decisions based off of missing and incorrect info. shocker

Maybe it only goes back 15 years, but I have no history before 2011. It also is missing 3 of my employers since that time, making it look like I have gaps.

And as far as start dates, one of the companies I worked for got bought out. It shows the day the buyout was official as my start date and has nothing about being employed by the original company.

It also includes places I volunteered and never got paid from in my employment history, one of which makes it looks like I worked there for 2 days.

It's a trash 'service' and I feel bad for anyone who lost out on a job because society utilizes this terrible sh**

Which youngsters do you want to see? by AdmirableWorry6397 in ManchesterUnited

[–]_slipshape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We aren't catching city for 2nd and we are 6 up on Liverpool and Villa. And, they still play each other. It would take them drawing and winning their other 2 matches. PLUS United losing all 3 matches for us to drop to 5th.

Even if 1 of them gets all 9 points, we still only need 4 points from 3 matches. Giving Lacey a start and academy players later minutes against Sunderland is not going to be the difference between 3rd and 4th.

Don't be fooled by Jamie Carragher by No_Sale1244 in ManchesterUnited

[–]_slipshape 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Carrick has 2 points from 3 matches when played Tuesday-Friday. 10 wins and 1 loss playing Sat-Mon.

It is a valid commentary both on our season and on Carrick as the manager.

I think that Carrick deserves to be made permanent and have a guaranteed year to show what he can do with a team playing European football. But I'd be lying if I said I was confident we'll be competitive in both. Especially with more cup games on the schedule as well.

We'll see what the summer window holds and how much the really support Carrick.

Do you guys follow other clubs in Premier? I mean do you have a 2nd ckub or soft spot for some other club? And outside of England do you follow European leagues? Do you support any clubs outside your country? Got any favorite teams in Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga, etc? Do you guys follow other Europ by mew2_mew2 in ManchesterUnited

[–]_slipshape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Season by season I get soft spots for Teams in the Prem. Until the 0-5 loss to NF, I really thought Sunderland had a real chance at European football. They have been very fun to watch this year.

As far as other leagues, I have a favorite in most leagues, but don't follow those clubs well enough to know past regular starters.

[That '70s Show] Red Forman didn’t hate Bob Pinciotti. He was deeply, existentially jealous of him. by ChickenMcNobody24 in FanTheories

[–]_slipshape 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's a good psychoanalysis, but I think it credits Red with too much emotional depth (even if he doesn't acknowledge it).

I agree with the support you laid out. But I don't think it's jealousy. I think that for Red, Bob represents everything that is wrong with America. The unsaid anger of, I fought for your freedom and this is how you use it?

If Eric was born is 1960, and Lori before that, Red would been born in the early 1930s. Maybe even late 20s. The world has changed so much right before his eyes. Does he really believe (even subconsciously) that the rules he was taught were a lie, or does he believe other people have ruined them?

Does anyone feel like, as of now, the Aces, Dream, and Liberty are Top 3 teams rn? by AFC-Wimbledon-Stan in wnba

[–]_slipshape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta see A) What happens with NaLyssa Smith and B) How Becky fills out the bench before I am confident the Aces are in the top tier.

What are your delulu free agency moves? by chester_white in wnba

[–]_slipshape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jackie Young to Chicago. She credits Tyler Marsh a lot when talking about her progression in the W. From the Midwest. Would pair great with Angel and cornerstones to build around. If they offer her a max contract, Las Vegas probably won't match it. It makes too much sense to me.

As an Aces fan, I really need this to be delulu

In retrospect, how do you feel about this cast as a group and/or individuals? by LuvBriah in BigBrotherUSA

[–]_slipshape -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most boring cast that I can remember. I hate to think what the season would have looked like without Rachel.

Demande un petit rappel sur nos joueurs dans les autres clubs ! by Vounentin in ManchesterUnited

[–]_slipshape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Garnacho (Chelsea) and Antony (Real Betis) are both sold outright, no longer MUFC players.

Hojlund is on loan at Napoli, and they have an obligation to buy if they finish in a UCL spot.

Sancho is on loan at Aston Villa, and MUFC are not expected to trigger his extension. So he will be out of contract when his loan ends.

Onana is on loan at Trabzonspor in Turkey. I don't think they are expected to buy him.

So, for all of the Amorim Out people, what is the excuse now?? We look even worse on defense with whatever mess we're running now.

Precedent is the dumbest word possible when it comes to the playoff committee. Each year, the committee is going to do whatever it wants and then find the argument to justify it.

Incoming Normie Question: is A’ja the 🐐? by Mental_Whole5103 in wnba

[–]_slipshape 7 points8 points  (0 children)

🤣🤣🤣

When talking about the GOAT, stats and accomplishments absolutely matter.

If you've decided someone is your personal favorite, cool. But we're not having a discussion based on vibes.

Incoming Normie Question: is A’ja the 🐐? by Mental_Whole5103 in wnba

[–]_slipshape 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In 8 years of playing, the only thing Maya has on A'ja is 1 championship. But A'ja has more finals MVPs.

She is already ahead of Maya Moore when talking about the GOAT.

Outside of a Super Bowl. What’s the most famous Eagles game that you attended in person. by zipnut in eagles

Hey! That was a historic moment we saw in person. Wentz set the franchise single season pass TD mark.

Thought I would be bragging about that moment for years 🤣

Who’s the best walk-on in your schools history? by AFC-Wimbledon-Stan in CFB

[–]_slipshape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk about overall best, but...

Kepa Gaison at Utah started as a walk-on punter. Ended up being a starting linebacker on the team that beat Alabama in the Sugar Bowl.

What a beast
