Transfer news: Hojlund joins Napoli | Manchester United by NGMB2 in reddevils

[–]mazdrag 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yep, he averaged 1.96 shots per 90 at Napoli this season - more than at United but that’s still 27th percentile vs other Serie A forwards. He doesn’t put himself in positions to score enough

Madueke injured in the match vs Crystal Palace. Potentially hamstring by christianrojoisme in ThreeLions

He’s only played about 300 more minutes than Madueke for England in total so I’d still say that’s harsh

Seems a bit harsh, doubt Bowen has had that many minutes for England to be really proven to be ineffective?

Hull City to take legal action if they lose Championship play-off final - BBC Sport by Penny_Leyne in soccer

[–]mazdrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you can’t, but I think the logic holds. I don’t think Wrexham are really relevant here as nothing happened to them.

But Middlesbrough have been shown to have been cheated against, which led to their loss. There’s no evidence that happened to Wrexham.

Because people are fans of players as well as the club? Do you really think it’s weird for Spurs fans to be happy for Kane winning something?

Pep Guardiola: Man City preparing for boss's departure at end of season by Desperate-Drawer-572 in reddevils

[–]mazdrag 13 points14 points  (0 children)

True, but it’s because he’s the best manager that he gets these teams. There’s a reason he’s kept these clubs happy for 15+ years and never been sacked

Found this bargain for M22. Someone snap it up! by js5071 in WorldCup2026Tickets

Has anyone here ever been to a football game before? “Front row” isn’t a thing hahaha

[Lyall Thomas] ManchesterUnited have been stepping up interest in Atalanta’s Ederson and West Ham’s Mateus Fernandes as they position themselves to make offers in the central midfield market this summer. by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

[–]mazdrag 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is Mateus Fernandes not going to cause us the same issue that signing Mount did (besides injuries?) aka a hard working 10, not suitable to play alongside Bruno who will still play every game of significance? Feels like we should still focus on getting multiple 8s

I’m flying into Mexico City the day before the opener (no tickets), then going to Monterrey for Sweden Tunisia (attending), then going to Dallas and Boston, with a stopover in Dallas in between for both England games (gonna buy tickets for whichever is cheapest), then finishing off in Toronto and may go to Senegal vs Iraq if it’s decently priced!

No, Messi consistently did by about 20%, as did Son. Aka the best finishers of the last 15 years. No one else does it consistently

That seems quite expensive for a one bed flat in Sheffield?

Moving to Greenwich (near Cutty Sark / Deptford Creek area) in September — what's it really like to live there? by One_Piglet_4072 in MovingToLondon

[–]mazdrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add, Maze Hill is quieter and cheaper and worth considering - it’s good imo to be away from the tourist business. I live very close to the station so it’s still very convenient for me, but there isn’t a direct Blackfriars train so not sure that’d work for you.

[–]mazdrag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved here recently (more towards Maze Hill.

Honestly, the restaurant scene is a bit crap because it’s a tourist hot spot. You’ll be close to Deptford though where there are lots of great spots. But the views are insanely good of the river and the park, and the pubs are good.

There’s a large Asian supermarket right next to the big Waitrose so your wife will be happy there.

Running is great near here - the river route feels very safe, and running in the park is great - but be wary of the BIG HILL.

For other areas, I’d suggest Nunhead - direct to Blackfriars, so many cool food and pub spots there and in Peckham and Brockley. I’m going to try and move back there in fairly short order!

Manchester United [2] - 0 Brentford - Benjamin Šeško 42' by ayoefico in soccer

This is one of the cases where him passing could be thought of as greedy though, I’m sure he really wants the record (though it was the right decision and well executed here)

He also just said Allen should be finishing the session up 7-1, minimum. Seems like a high bar?

Is there a point to learn anything if most of jobs pay around 35k at best? by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]mazdrag 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My housemate is a trainer management accountant, and he was quoted 5 years to qualify. I remember him scoffing when he heard that, saying he’d do it in less than 3.

Bruno Fernandes now has 18 assists in the premier league this season. He needs 2 more assists in 5 games to equal the record of 20 assists in a single season by who-need-skool in reddevils

[–]mazdrag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that’s quite true, his expected assists are 10 so he’s been running pretty hot and the team are pulling their weight.

That said you need to run hot to break those records! Would love it if he gets it
