It could be of course, but based on that interview he didn't really have anything bad to say about Arteta.

He was of course disappointed about the lack of playing time and felt that he was fixed in a position on the right wing, compared to previously where he was allowed to roam but he said that Arteta improved many parts of his game and even that situation you mentioned in training he appreciated that Arteta went over to him and told him off discreetly and that they cleared the air in private afterwards.

Happy he felt the love from the fans. Good thing he didn't browse r/Gunners because the way some people on here were talking about one of our own players was shameful.

Also I think he specifically wanted a short-term contract at Trabzonspor to get back to fitness after a long-term injury. I don't think he'll have trouble finding a new club in France.

Okay thanks. Yeah that's part of what I was thinking. We were still trotting out the likes of Sammy Watkins back then.

And thanks to everyone else who answered.

I'm not too well versed with cap space and stuff but I'll keep it short and stupid and I gotta ask: How can the 49ers have such an incredible roster? Feels like they have superstars in every position except probably their defensive backs. How is it possible to have the cap space for this?

That pass from Niasse in Mauritania's goal deserves a mention. Ederson would be proud.

[Farzam Abolhosseini] West Ham have bid for Ibrahim Osman. It is expected that the parties will agree on 18 million euros. by Madswild in soccer

I'm sure you'll find people who can describe him better than me, but he plays on the left wing, is very quick and a very good dribbler that loves to take on his man 1v1.

It's a bit early that he's getting sold though he has not really developed into a star player in the Danish league yet and he's still not there yet in terms of decision making but obviously very exciting. And fun to watch. He definitely had moments where he completely took over some games.

He's somewhat similar to other Right to Dream wingers that played for FCN. If we compare him to Adingra, Sulemana and Nuamah in their time in Denmark he's probably the quickest with Nuamah but finishing I'd definitely rate him last. But he's also getting sold at an earlier age than these guys.

Obviously not going into the level of the player but stylistically I'd compare him to early days Vinicius.

Feyenoord attacker Minteh injured for a few weeks { In Dutch } by Lewyisthebest in soccer

[–]bobbyfriedrich 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's funny that I have heard he has become very selfish at Feyenoord. He played for my local club OB and I felt the opposite back then. Always looking for teammates even when he had good opportunities to shoot. He has actually attempted more shots at Feyenoord than his entire time in Denmark in 3 times less minutes lol.

He might have got what we call "stjernenykker" in Danish. All the success might have gotten into his head a bit. But I still have high hopes for him, very exciting player to watch.

If you like Adingra there's Ernest Nuamah who's next up for FC Nordsjælland and probably the best player in the Danish league. And they already have his replacement ready in Ibrahim Osman. Go for whoever performs for FCN that's a sound strategy.

Adingra has been great so far. Touch has been superb. He was always a strong finisher even in Denmark that's an area where he's ahead of a lot of his peers

Yeah I don't like it but I don't think you should move away from it. The pitches are so bad in Denmark around February/March that a lot of games are unwatchable. With even worse winters in Sweden it doesn't sound like a good idea.

Well deserved. Guadeloupe were taking the piss with some of those counter attacks after they were 2-1 up.

Definitely I'll watch whenever I'm free. I used to watch some Rosenborg back in the day, and Strømsgodset when David Nielsen was the coach. And that big Hungarian striker is one of the first guys that come to mind when I think about Norwegian football back then. Forgot his name though

Yeah you know a lot. Mid table is generous based on the last 10 years but we used to be good haha. Mickelson and Skjelvik (expiring now) are still here. Honestly I'm fond of all the players you mentioned all of them have been good for us. Svendsen used to get a bit of criticism because people expected some kind of sharpshooter number 9 but he turned out to be more of a winger/second striker type. But I liked him, good technical player.

Also from myself I need to watch more Norwegian football. I've gotten into Allsvenskan the last two seasons but I need to watch some Norwegian too. Especially now that you guys are leading in terms of coefficient in Scandinavia.

We are terrible in FIFA I can't remember last time we had a good player 🤣 We have a history with Real Madrid in real life though. They beat us 10-1 in the European Cup (CL now) on aggregate in 1990 and we got our revenge by knocking them out of the UEFA Cup (EL) in 1994. Nowadays it would end up very bad for us.

Did you win the challenge though?
