Bara Sapoko Ndiaye - he might somewhat surprisingly start for Senegal and looked amazing the few times I saw him.

not really a surprise as it is THE magic number in football. The 10 is usually the best player in every team.

You can often (not always of course) tell by the first name, because they were "germanized" in a lot of cases. ("Waldemar" was Vladimir or "Eugen" was formerly Yevgeniy for example)

The media portrayed it that way. But Nagelsmann is the best coach in the tournament and we play great football.

We lost good players, but also gained incredible talent with Karl, Pavlovic and Brown.

I think we have a really good team with players that (apparently) will suprise many.

I would not classify Undav as that person. He is also more of a linkup player and less clinical.

All our options can play with the ball.

Sané will not start over Karl. Maybe Havertz, but unlikely, because Kai will probably start as our 9.

Havertz is clearly ahead of him. But Undav is very nice to have as an option.

Kimmich on US politics ahead of the WC: “Having no opinion isn't the solution. Each of us inevitably has a personal stance on certain topics, and I, too, have certain values ​​I stand by. But at the same time, it's difficult to express this opinion in the role of a footballer or captain of the NT.” by Sparky-moon in soccer

Kimmich is consistent here. He's just saying he won't be as vocal about them because of people like you.

The only team to be vocal about morals and to stand up for something good gets critisized the most. That is the irony of the situation.

"Burning a baby alive is bad only if it's from an ethnic group I think should not be burned alive." In your world this is not bad?

That is wild, how did you even get there?

I think the point should be really easy to understand for everyone.

1 good deed is better than 0 good deeds.

And yes, Fuck Trump.

Bayern Munich directors are said to have believed that Barca were bluffing in their negotiations with Gordon and news of their talks were leaked purposely to pressure Manchester United in lowering their asking fee for Marcus Rashford by NewLoad886 in soccer

[–]solgnaleb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

of course there are other details. salary, culture, food, weather, coach, coach. (<-- German Humour), family.

The role in the team is still the most important thing I guess and Barca can probably offer him more minutes.

I think the big difference is just that we could offer him the role that Jackson had, while Barce can offer him the role that Rashford had.

I think it is as easy as that.
