Mr Adam Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 I understand the Trippier selection from a leadership perspective. No Henderson or Maguire. People have been saying he needs to sort the defence out and this is one way of trying it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a English but I did complain. How can one not complain about the nature of England fans. They always spoil a good day in the sun, and then most times England spoil it more by winning 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinamo Zagreb once lost a match on purpose, tanking a lot of goals against Lyon, so that Ajax were out of the CL on GD. Vida was fotographed taking the ball out of the net and handing it to a Lyon player, giving him a big fat wink. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/985082-lyons-champions-league-qualification-a-fix-made-in-zagreb-and-amsterdam 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get this argument if he does something with it but he more often than not does nothing good at the end of the move and it always breaks down. Definitely got to start having an end product or the argument for him being in for his speed and runs in behind start to look thin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always want to hate the guy as he plays for Chelsea obviously, but I just can't, he seems such a nice bloke and is a great player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VP. Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 It still amazes me how Sterling gets the amount of goals/assists he does because technically he's one of the worst players around.
