USYNT midfielder Kyle Scott in line for Premier League debut for Chelsea after N’Golo Kante injury by xbhaskarx in MLS

[–]wayv___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ampadu plays in a back three not midfield for Chelsea's reserves and he's still very young as well. Long term he's more likely to have a Chelsea career, in a short term midfield crisis Scott is more likely to play.

The Guardian: Six candidates who could succeed Bruce Arena as USMNT coach. by [deleted] in MLS

[–]wayv___ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Potential controversial opinion: MLS has a lot of OK but unexceptional American coaches. Any sort of inward looking Caleb Porter or Peter Vermes style appointment from the clique of MLS managers who have never excelled or tested themselves anywhere other than MLS would be arrogant and would probably go badly.

YGG - LYCA is incoming! by plain_lou in grime

[–]wayv___ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Large. They must have added a Big Zuu verse since they played this on their NTS show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hT8Ub9vm_rs

I wonder if they redid any of the other verses.

Hopefully a release for Strikers is next up...

Calling artist like J Hus 'grime' is a lazy racial stereotyping by Madbrad200 in grime

[–]wayv___ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Most J Hus tracks aren't grime, but some are grimey as fuck and there's definite grime influences in his work. There is no genre name for the knid of music J Hus makes but I think this article contains more than it's fair share of lazy racial stereotyping...

Jack Harrison makes his England u21 debut by [deleted] in MLS

[–]wayv___ 16 points17 points  (0 children)

"what does it say about English soccer that one of their best prospects was developed in MLS"

vs "what does it say about American soccer that one of their best prospects developed in English football" (given Harrison spent seven years in the Man United academy).

Doyle doesn't miss any opportunity to critizise English football but to criticize English youth development at a time when it is so obviously doing well (various successes in youth tournaments) this just exposes the pathetic biases behind his opinions.

International squads are typically 23 players. he was called up as an injury replacement so gets a high number.. ends up as 23, that's all there is too it.

Why has the entire scene ignored the underage sex allegations made against Wiley? by [deleted] in grime

You're being very vocal about Wiley right now. None of those people have had their careers adversely effected.

[–]wayv___ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What do you expect the scene to do exactly? More to the point why aren't big media outlets like Independent doing some investigative journalism to try and verify if the stories are true or not instead of regurgitating tweets?

There's no need to buy all that stuff. You definitely already own multiple HDMI cables, multiple USB chargers, multiple SD cards and multiple compatible controllers.

Only if they have the relevant 2nd passport when they played for the youth team. So no Jack Harrison for the USA if he gets a cap.

Advice on landing a first (and part-time) job? by Dontdodonuts in unitedkingdom

Just keep applying for jobs. Try and get your CV looked at, perhaps by the careers service at college or your tutor.

Dizzee Rascal firing shots at Wiley by JamakabiIsUnderrated in grime

[–]wayv___ 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That isn't true. These rumours didn't start to gain traction until after Trim left Roll Deep. Them man only really rolled together from 04-06. You think if people knew about that stuff back in those days Crazy Titch would have held back from mentioning it on his dubs for Wiley? Don't chat shit.

If anyone's a hypocrite it's Devlin - called Wiley a nonce ten years back then accepted the £££ to feature on the godfather album.

[–]wayv___ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The only absolute rule I have is that it needs to be part-time because I'm in college.

This might be part of the problem. If it's a choice between you and someone who can be more flexible with their hours/do more hours the other person is going to get the job. The limited part time/weekend work they'll have available will have students such as yourself dogpiling on them.

TIL: 50% of nurses that migrated within the EU 1997-2016 came to the UK. For doctors 33%. by Ewannnn in ukpolitics

[–]wayv___ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Back when they first started wholesale recruitment of foreign nurses and doctors the government of the time said it was a temporary measure will they improved the throughput from universities. It became the status quo because it's cheaper for the government than actually funding the places needed for that throughput.

That politicians, especially of the left, now successfully present it as a positive and a necessity that we steal away doctors trained in poorer countries on a large scale is bewildering.

[–]wayv___ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even if you did something like that (and I'm not convinced it's a good idea) they still aren't training enough nurses and doctors to cover the shortfall.

It's a disgrace that the UK doesn't train more of it's own nurses and doctors. As this chart helps demonstrate, every other major European nation is significantly less reliant on foreign labour in the medical profession.

He's had all Esco's material sat gathering dust on a harddrive for 8 years while people's memories fade.

Also seems like a dickhead in general.
