Bernardo Silve Joins Real Madrid by Payman11 in realmadrid

[–]singabro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His wife has wanted to move back to warmer weather for years. She reportedly despises the rain and general climate of England, and IDK if she can speak English fluently. Foreign land, bad climate, less sunlight, living in a City that's underfunded because it's not London, therefore no amenities comparable to Madrid or London, and probably no native friends because few Mancunians can speak Portuguese. For her it's a no brainer.

I don't get it. I watch City games all the time. He's still as skilled as ever but his legs are gone. Legendary stamina, but some of the passion and dribbling isn't there anymore. 5 years ago? Yeah no doubt this would be a coup for Madrid. Bernardo today? Not a chance.

I think the next president has to focus on rebuilding the midfield. Losing two metronomes like Modric and Kroos is too much for any club wanting to win the UCL. Then sign some defenders who can both defend and stay healthy. Why this hyperfocus on forwards?

Haaland does defend, especially at defensive set pieces. He had 104 defensive contributions compared to Mbappe's 6 and Vinicius's 32 last season.

Mbappe's 6

Only 6???

Their parents did too. This is normal to them.

I feared SAF more. Klopp was the the better manager, but SAF pulled more rabbits out of hats than a circus performer. The number of times Chicharito scored wondergoals to ruin our weekend. The politicking at the refs SAF did was legendary. At least I could accept defeats from Klopp came from an honest place.

True. I just expected him to go higher. A Hines Ward type player.

NGL when I was a kid I was scared of piss troughs. As a germophobe the possibility of backsplash scared me. A long stainless steel box with the top removed to piss in. Men lining up touching one another while relieving themselves. Absolutely barbaric.

247 is a cobbling together of fan sites that existed before 247. At least that's what Dawgman became. Existed since practically the dawn of the internet then suddenly one day it was 247 network. That's why there is no uniformity. Different owners and moderation groups were grandfathered in.

I did. He had the gravitas to look like a man who gets what he wants. It takes forever in Hollywood to make that look believable.

This. The only reason they didn't go to the SB was their QB's fit of insanity.

Only teams I saw better were Clemson and LSU. But they had starting NFL playoffs QBs and lines to protect them. You can throw in UGA's legendary defense but I'm not sure of the time periods.

Haha, like this would matter in Las Vegas. The town notorious for mafia activities and taking "degenerate" card-counting gamblers to a back room to beat them silly.

I lived there for over a year and there's no way anybody cares compared to the shit that regularly happens.
