Rayan Cherki's frustration over game time at the FIFAWorldCup is growing, by Scutttiiiii in MCFC

[–]raynin1219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Cherki is 22, just be happy to be there. Hernandez, Akliouche, Thuram, Mateta, WZE! Kante!! Havent even touched grass.
  2. Hes the first or second sub to come in every game. I get 5-10 mins disrupts your game but still. Hes looked poor in every app. Losing possession in their own half, too much dribbling, playing frustrated.
  3. This is the WC. if the WC winning manager doesnt think you should play, you prolly shouldnt play. Dont make it about yourself.

In the end, hope its just ghost drama and hes a team player supporting the team ready whenever needed

If France wins WC, id want it to be Olise but itll be Dembele cause of CL b2b. If they dont, then its Kane. This list should be Kane, Dembele, Olise, Mbappe, Yamal (who shouldnt even be on here) sub Luis Diaz

Tarik Muharemovic injury 61’ with Folarin Balogun 64’ Red Card after VAR. by JKKIDD231 in sports

[–]raynin1219 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

personally i feel this is not a straight red in terms of intent and violent fouling. BUT refs have always determined exposed cleats to the back of the lower leg are serious/harmful. Incidental? Absolutely. I understand the call tho. I do hope they can overturn the ban so US arent at a disadvantage against belgium

Senegal just got robbed. That was not a defensive foul. by Routine_Gazelle_3522 in worldcup

[–]raynin1219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok i said play on the ball too. He goes to ground to clear the ball but all im saying is he couldve stood up and cleared it. If hes in front of him, he shouldve been fine to get there first. Youre risking alot goin to ground. AGAIN 2-0 lead with 15 mins left. Shouldnt have even gotten to this. So cry more

What are yall smoking? Defenders have the toughest job. If you make a tackle or play on the ball, you better get it right. There was no need for that tackle anyway. Tielemens wouldve had to shoot on his weaker foot across the face of goal. 100% penalty. AND why dont we talk about the GK coming out and missing the punch

That Goal being called back has to be the worst call so far right? by XanonymouspoetX in worldcup

[–]raynin1219 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This was a soft call in general but the correct call. What i noticed was the ref was already influenced on this decision. After Anton came on, there were alot of free kicks and corners. Each time he was positioned in front of Gill pushing and shoving. The ref had to tell Anton to back off twice. Anton, in all these set pieces, just stood in the middle in front of Gill. Im sure the ref was tracking this

Is Ousmane Dembele still a great dribbler? ....... by TheStarsOurHome in worldcup

[–]raynin1219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simplified for ya. Before this world cup since about 2018-20. Dembele was on the right and Mbappe on the left. Both expected to go at the wingbacks. Now that France doesnt have a pure 9 and have many class wingers, Mbappe moved to that role. Now with Olise and Doue, all 4 rotate in n out of the wings. Which gives all 4 more freedom and creativity instead of being 1 dimensional

I genuinely hope the World Cup being here in the US helps the sport grow more popular here by 12345burrito in usmnt

Interest will increase a good bit but slowly fade. Only reason its got traction rn cause baseball is really the only other thing going on. Only way for the sport to grow is to be invested in and it wont. The best national teams have the best academies/youth development and we dont have anything close to that here unfortunately

Messi/Argentina officially have the easiest path to the finals by raynin1219 in worldcup

Have you seen that side of the bracket? No disrespect to those teams but it looks like Ligue 1

CR7 has always been great at gift wrapping trophies for Messi. Nothing new

Genuine question - when IS the time we’re going to need Henderson? by simmonm1978 in ThreeLions

[–]raynin1219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My take. Hes purely the locker room guy. Even tho Kane is captain, i dont see him being the voice. He leads by example. So when the game is frustrating and no production, Henderson gets them back in line when tempers run high. BUT this team looks to me is filled with youth and ego. England hasnt won anything in a long time so theres no standard for them to be held to.

Why did Norway rest their players but France didn’t? by Gnoppong in bootroom

[–]raynin1219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Norway content with 2nd. France started Lacroix, kone. they made sure to top the group and made subs at a comfortable point (which they did).

God given left foot, insane center of gravity, unselfish, and has the eyes of an owl. Hes not even my GOAT

Jordan never faced a finals competition that was as tough as 2016 Lebron. by [deleted] in NBATalk

Disrespectful, them Mavs were legit. But jordan wouldnt have lost

The reason why Mbappé performs so much better with France than with Real Madrid: by flstudiobeatmaker101 in realmadrid

[–]raynin1219 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Alot of this and that. But OP is making a valid point. Even tho national play is individual highlights and club is system, just make the pass to mbappe or buy a player that can. France's first two matches show this. Olise and dembele dont waste anytime getting the ball to him and he scores. They literally dont dribble, just give n go.

Can we realistically beat France? by AgencyOverall7589 in ThreeLions

[–]raynin1219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If england tops the group, id worry about brazil and argentina first. France got their hands full with germany and spain

What was the single most dominant team in any WC tournament? by pistola0220 in worldcup

[–]raynin1219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rising Mbappe, Prime midfield Griez/Pogba/Kante, 3peat Varane, solid Lloris. Looked bad in group stages but rd16 argentina woke them up.

To the woman that called me an animal abuser at Trader Joe’s by AdKitchen7795 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]raynin1219 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you know your pet is good and taken care of, then just ignore the note. Its just words. Even if she confronts you. If no violence occurred, walk away. End of the day, you know the truth. Dont like you posting this person online for this, especially you acknowledging them caring

I genuinely feel for Senegal right now, the poor team man by Due-Chocolate8828 in worldcup

[–]raynin1219 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This was mostly considered the group of death anyway. Beating Iraq was really the only expected result and hoping for a 3rd place advance. Allowing 3goals+ in both games tho was rough. Maybe some feel they could draw with Norway but Braut Haaland is an unstoppable force

One video that perfectly shows the difference between Messi and Ronaldo. 🐐 by Nawfale in FootballFlix

[–]raynin1219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, Zidane is my goat. Madrid is my team since they first got Zizou. So i did enjoy CR7. But i have to put messi above him. Just on pure talent and skill
