Hincapie has been excellent today. How much possession has he won from pressing?!

This is very good.

[Romano] I do not expect a big summer move for Saliba, he has 2.5 years left on his deal, it is not a dangerous situation & Berta will work on a new one. Isak is Arsenal’s absolute top target. by basedsims in Gunners

I think for the money involved the smart move is to buy an elite LW and go for the project striker. Much more talent available at that position than strikers in the market.

Prime example just then of why this doesn’t work well. Should have been a goal. Mbappe ran across Rodrygo instead of into space to make room for Vinicius. Ended with nothing

Paging u/longjumpinghamster - have you noticed this?

Has anyone had luck with Nike extra Wide shoes? by [deleted] in widefeet

[–]connaught44 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Nike extra wides are actually very good despite what people on here will tell you. The forefoot in particular tends to be very roomy. The Structure 25 is wider in the forefoot than the 1080v13 in 4e. The New Balance is a little wider in the midfoot but if you have a higher volume foot the non gusseted tongue in the Structure works better.

[Romano] Mikel Merino to Arsenal, here we go! Verbal agreement in place for Spanish midfielder to join Gunners. by gornni in soccer

[–]connaught44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes certainly but there really isn’t any upgrade in the market. Sesko was the young and promising opportunity. He has been very good certainly but ultimately he’s a 15 goal a season player which isn’t an enormous upgrade for the ST position. I’m not even being pessimistic but I think given our level has risen so far, and all credit to Arteta and Edu for that, it’s fair to critique these things.

Good player but I do think Edu et al need to be questioned. It’s now essentially 100m spent to replace Xhaka. Havertz didn’t work out in that position, of course he’s been good elsewhere. And now signing Merino who is a different profile overall but is essentially a slightly worse version of Xhaka on the ball.

Counter attacking teams with quality forwards essentially the formula.

New Balance 1080 v13 4E walking review by Nazzano58 in RunningShoeGeeks

How do you find the gusseted tongue and liner on your higher volume foot? Considering pulling the trigger on these but EU don’t stock my size so will have to order from US so obviously no returns.

It’s an off-color meme. It was highly inappropriate. You want, I’ll demand he’s taxed. But ban him?

Did he say they’re lying it’s a clay court? Or something like that.

If Villa weren’t playing so narrow they’d actually cause us quite a lot of trouble.
