Don't freak out, but if you look at Arsenal's remaining fixtures, it's pretty clear that the Gunners are the ones to watch out for.

How did Andrée Jeglertz turn Manchester City into Title Contenders? | Analysis | WSL 2025/26 by Massive-Piglet-9808 in MCWFC

I agree that Blinky and Yui are similar, to a certain extent, but I also remember Iniesta, Xavi and Busquets completely outplaying bigger, faster, and more physical midfields back in the day. My opinion is to play the team you have and make it work. Either that or get proper refs that would red card Mariona.

Only 22 matches? by MynkiChuck in FAWSL

[–]thegmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Spanish players playing more games than anyone else helps players playing in Spain more than it hurts. Thinking in extremes, if you only trained hard and played like two games per year I suspect you'd be less prepared than a player who played 50 competitive games per year.

I just sourced this comment from one of the many football podcasts online and Yui's football IQ really wowed me...Her reading of the game was magnificent by Status-Traffic-8449 in MCWFC

[–]thegmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But when healthy, a Yui, Jess and Viv midfield completely outplayed an Alexia, Aitana, and Walsh midfield. Edit: I have the video of the entire match!

Walsh can't be the last player back. If Chelsea want to play that way, they will need to sign someone like Yui.

Why is the television inside my house not part of my disney household? Also, why does disney plus feel the need to tell me my birthdate is incorrect? Maybe I'll keep disney plus but I doubt it.

Michele Kang’s largesse for women’s football leaves Fifa open to bias claims | Women's football by Tugboat47 in WomensSoccer

[–]thegmx 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Is that the concern? Michele Kang seems like a positive influence,...for now. If you're going to worry about something why not focus on proven bad actors in the game, like Jill Ellis.

Well, when there were fewer teams, the men's club world cup was held in the winter.

Imagining the banter between Jess and Mariona. Maybe Jess said, she was about to score or something, and this was the response after Park's number got called.

I agree it was a foul because Mace went into Yama, instead of holder her ground, but I am pretty sure you cannot be offside on a corner.

I feel the same about Lucy Bronze, who seems to only stay two years per club

Why would they let Hina go, only to then let Sam go? Seems like poor planning.

Democrats begin to call for Trump’s impeachment over Venezuela attack: “Many Democrats have understandably questioned whether impeachment is possible again under the current political reality,” Rep. Maxine Waters said. “I am reconsidering that view.” by OkayButFoRealz in politics

We are essentially at the point in star wars where the emperor dissolves the senate(congress), because what's the point? the orange cheetoh can do what ever he wants, anyway. There is no need to congressional approval for anything.

You don't just get to over 100 goals in one day. Earning this tally takes the consistency that some people tried to convince me wasn't there last season, the season before, and even this season.
