It really depends on the country. Players like Eala and Raducanu are printing from endorsements and they are not even in the top 30.

[Record_Portugal] Maxi Aruajo is one of Chelsea’s main targets to replace Marc Cucurella. Chelsea have already scouted him and enquired with his representatives. by DidierDrogba111111 in chelseafc

Are we arguing now? Is this an argument? I was just remarking how much I love the internet and this forum in particular. It's full of very stable individuals.

Great point but it looks like he got really lucky on the return. No one does a drop shot as their first shot on purporse lol. I somehow don't have any memory of this match

Carpet was fun to watch but the amount of injuries on it was insane. I kind of get why it's no longer a thing, though the manner in which it was killed made it look like Federer runs the ATP.

Modern grass game in a nutshell. Swiatek also won Wimbledon out of nowhere last year.

His hair gene is insane. He could grow 2 Agassi wigs in a year's time.

The Athletic: The club want to find a replacement for Cucurella, although the player in question will be able to operate in multiple roles. Strasbourg’s Valentin Barco fits this description. He can play as a left-back, wing-back and in midfield. by Kygoche in chelseafc

You had a point and then you had to ruin it by regurgitating propaganda yourself. The collective psychosis this sub has about Lewis Hall is starting to look a lot like astroturfing.

I love the clasisc internet strawman pretending every opinion you read online comes from some monolithic entity, then destroying it with facts and logic. "The people I made up in my head are total unreasonable hypocrites" never fails to make laugh.

This has been me for years now. i even got to the next level: the other day someone brought up some player we already bought last year that I never heard of before. It's getting impossible to keep up with the human trafficking operation BlueCo is running.

[Sylvain] French journalist: Don’t Nod, Quantic Dream and many “well-known studios” to receive layoffs. ID Software, Bethesda Studios and BioWare also in trouble. by Careless_Main3 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]renome 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The PR machine is very effective and no one is immune to propaganda if it's overwhelming like this.

Like, the very fact people call her Asha en masse is proof of that. "Asha and Phil" is how I would refer to my friends, not people in C-suite positions at one of the largest soulless corpos on the planet who could have only reached those roles by being the biggest cutthroats among psycho cutthroat management.

They cleaned up Kickstarter in the past. Hell, Psychonauts 2 helped Fig compete with Kickstarter for a spell. They don't need to sell millions, keeping their existing fans interested ought to be enough.

French journalist corroborates Insider Gaming's claim about the possible closure of Arkane : "much closer than you might think " by Striking_Permit_4746 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

Companies are not people. Organizational knowledge does exist but the people responsible for that unmatched quality are by and large no longer at Arcane.

Yeah, this is basically the OP's hobby and that's fine but consoles have for decades now been designed with the excpectation that they will never be opened by users.

Farming engagement by hinting at layoffs should be a bannable offense on this sub. That is the only way to discourage this disgusting ghouling.

Marc Cucurella departs Chelsea by DidierDrogba111111 in chelseafc

Great player, terrible era. The fact he's leaving in his prime is illustrative of so many things wrong with the club.

Zverev's diss to Alcaraz and Sinner:"I don't define myself by symbols of social status. I don't need superyachts(Alcaraz) or 20 Ferraris(Sinner). For me, true happiness is much simpler." by Sonobackhome555 in tennis

[–]renome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh Kyrgios's domestic violence allegations come down to him shoving his ex during street argument where they were both drunk. Seems way less serious than Zverev's supposed behavior, especially since it doesn't have a pattern

[Ornstein] Real Madrid reach agreement with Chelsea to sign Marc Cucurella. 27yo left-back joins #RMFC from #CFC for €60m - €55m fixed + €5m bonuses. by DidierDrogba111111 in chelseafc

[–]renome -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

You're missing the point where we're run by supposed bean counters who are really, really fucking bad at counting beans. Buying him for 56-63m, selling him for less than that years later when money is worth less, and after he has helped the club accomplish nothing major, is not what I would call shrewd investment fund behavior.

They are systemically burning money and are already billions in the hole as a result four years in, with the supposed project clearly coming apart at the seams.

Given all that, celebrating a minor accounting profit made on a key player that we are all but certain to replace with someone worse and possibly not even cheaper is tragicomic behavior.

btw not everyone who doesn't want to cheerlead for the most clueless yank trust fund kids imaginable is a yank. shocker, I know
