  1. The Jesus buzz has cooled since the first two months (rightfully so) because of his cold spell. The Salah comparison is not apples-to-apples; Salah has played 1232 minutes in the EPL this season to Darwin’s 610. He’s played over twice as many minutes and most of his shots / touches come from much tougher positions due to his proximity to the touchline. Darwin is getting in great positions, but to pretend that he’s lived up to his transfer bill thus far would be disingenuous because positioning =/= goals. We’ll see how the second half unfolds and if he can get into consistent form.
  2. He has 14 big chances missed for Liverpool in all competitions and he’s only started 11 matches. Just because he scores goals amidst large periods of wastefulness does not relieve him of the title of bad finisher. He’s young, and I’m optimistic he improves. But he’s the opposite of clinical right now and his price tag + the current status of the club and its personnel means we can’t afford him doing what he did today and expect to win.
  3. Never seen a worse finisher than Nunez in my entire life. If this is how he looks throughout his tenure, this will have been a disaster.
  4. Darwin really wears me the fuck out. Every shot he takes is a 50/50 shot at glory or disaster.
  5. That was fantastic final third play right there. Super sexy casual finish by Fabio.
  6. Agreed, but it might be the only trophy we play for this season for all we know so I feel like we should go for it if we can.
  7. Shocked that we’d look poor with Milner at RB, Gomez at CB, and this midfield selection vs. a good City lineup. /s
  8. Lautaro Martinez is the worst striker I’ve ever seen in my life.
  9. Lautaro will not see Heaven after this World Cup. He makes Higuaín look like fat Ronaldo.
  10. That Di Maria sub… I know he wasn’t 100% fit, but it’s his last match in an Argentina shirt and his club career is essentially cooked. He was still running with his hair on fire and your biggest offensive threat outside of Messi. Very questionable sub that maybe titled the balance here.
  11. Di Maria is playing like it’s 2012; this man must have sold his soul to Satan for one last performance to get Messi a WC.
  12. It’s crazy how much Southgate must hate Trent to not put him on the pitch when you’re chasing the game like this…
  13. That was the worst chip I’ve ever seen. The keeper was so far out with no defenders in the area; that’s an easy goal if he gets ANY loft & power on it.
  14. I know they’ve been handing out extra time like candy in this tournament, but did I miss some crazy time wasting or injuries to justify 8 minutes?
  15. The aerial views of the block against Spain are insane. It’s like Mourinho vs. Barcelona in ‘09 with Inter.
  16. somehow they’ve managed to avoid a yellow for simulation so it’s at least proficiency…maybe mastery only occurs once an undeserved penalty is given.
  17. Lautaro Martinez needs to be investigated; the dude is a terrorist, plain and simple. This bum is picking up the mantle where Higuain left off in 2014.
  18. Is Worthy’s beef NIL-based? Haven’t been following, but it’s not like he’s uninvolved in our offense. If anything, Ewers/Sark cater to him more than they should given other weapons (JWhitt/Sanders). I could understand being frustrated with the general QB play, but it seems super odd to be disgruntled with a young, ascending program outside of Ewers.
  19. I am so happy to eat some Black Friday crow if they hold on here. I am a doom-and-gloom piece of human garbage, and I really thought the writing was on the wall after the double false start + JWhitt fumble earlier. The toughness on these last two drives to do what they did with ZERO production from Ewers is astounding. That's the stuff that can define your program culture.
  20. We need a touchdown here. I am deathly afraid of going up 7, only for Baylor to march down the field and score + a 2pt conversion to win the game. Whatever it takes to make this a two-score game.
  21. You think Sark will dial up one of those wonderful kill-shot PA passes that take nine years to develop here on first down? Instead of, ya know, handing the ball off to our Heisman running back?
  22. Jaylon Ford is a beautiful, beautiful man.
