  1. hang it in the louvre.
  2. what a stud. jump cuts like eric metcalf. incredible player.
  3. jurrien timber might be the most slept on player in europe. just pencil in a 7.5 for him every match, and then go up from there depending on how well he does. just an absolute rock on the right hand side, he’s like the new age version of sagna, with an attacking game added on. what a player.
  4. this is what having a deep bench is all about. we unloaded every round, and it was just enough to get the win. LFG!!!
  5. odegaard has come in and been brilliant. absolute maestro.
  6. BIG GABI!!!!!!! COYG!!! 🔴⚪️
  7. one of our guys just got hurled into the ground in the box, no call, no replay.
  8. LFG!!! Let’s go get all 3!! face raped him too.
  9. timber is a machine, he’s been outstanding today.
  10. they said pope “won the ball”. yeah fucking right. gyorkores dribbled the ball which then glanced off of pope’s foot, pope didn’t even attempt to win the ball. absolute horse shit.
  11. ok, there might be a conspiracy. should be a red card for newcastle and a penalty for arsenal, and it ends up as no foul. fuck. that.
  12. that’s a red. gyorkores dribbles around pipe and has a wide open net and gets fouled, what are we talking about here?!?!?!?!
  13. this is what ea sports has done for a decade with fifa. whatever formation you choose for your team, they will literally just try and get into that formation while defending, regardless of where the ball is or what’s happening. whenever the compite gets a throw in you return to play to see your team lined up in a 4-4-2 marking *nobody*. not the guy throwing it in, not any of his teammates, nobody. they are just programmed to get to a spot and stand there. and then even if the ball comes near them they generally don’t do much. staple of ea sports.
  14. deshon elliott with an int in dublin, and celebrates it with an irish jig.
  15. shameful.
  16. also fwiw, i don’t remember the exact context because it was awhile back and it came and went very quickly, but there was a controversy 4-5 years ago when pulisic liked an ig post from some far right wing nut job who was showing off his collection of 200 guns and making veiled threats of violence towards the left or something equally fucking hateful, dangerous, and stupid. someone got a hold of pulisic and he unliked the photo, but the screenshots are still around somewhere. i’ve never rooted for him since then. Clint Dempsey is my GOAT.
  17. pulisic is one of those trumpers who wants to do that embarrassing fucking dance after scoring a goal but then doesn’t like it when he gets asked about it, and tries to downplay is as something that’s just lighthearted and fun to do. 🙄
  18. that actually is a cool story bro, and informative. thanks for sharing.
  19. i’m gonna say something that you aren’t going to hear any other arsenal fans say, but i’m actually a huge fan of florian wirtz and i still expect him to become a key player for liverpool. it’s not unusual for guys to have an adjustment period when changing leagues, teams, play styles, etc. he’s too talented to flop imo.
  20. oh yeah, to add on to this point, i am friends on instagram with a ton of my former students who are now adults, and you can actually see the divide between those kids whose parents worked their asses off and/or got scholarships in order to attend our school, vs those who just come from wealth and would never consider going to a lesser school, despite paying anywhere from $20-$35k per year per student (lots of families with 3-4 kids at the school) over the years. for example, you’ll see kids who graduated and went off to UT, Oregon, or Cal, and they will post about the current events and the political atmosphere, eg supporting trans rights or disavowing donald trump. meanwhile, the super wealthy kids they went to school with for 12 years are posting photos on their yachts in greece, or at the taylor swift concert in london, or on a girl’s trip (so, four 20 year old girls from four different wealthy families) to italy, spain, and portugal. ghey may have gone to school together for 12 years, but they come from and live in different worlds. the truly wealthy folks can be “the best people you know” (seriously, it’s been heartbreaking for my mom and me to have so many close relationships with these types of people from our school), but they will still vote republican every time, and they will always be so disconnected from the world that the rest of us live in that they’ll never come close to being able to empathize or commiserate.
  21. a lot of people here really don’t want to admit this, but the likes of brock cunningham, shay holle, and michael taaffe (westlake athletes) are the exact kind of people we’re talking about here. i obviously don’t know these three personally, im just using them as an example, but this is exactly who we’re talking about. oh yeah, as i’m typing this, im remembering that huston street, one of the nicest guys ive met from UT, is a big time trumper. the bottom line is that people who truly come from privilege are totally clueless as to what it’s like to not be born on 3rd base, just healthy, handsome, educated, and wealthy your entire life. they aren’t the 1%, but they damn sure have no idea what life is like for those on the other side of the tracks. for them it’s just a bunch of negative noise that they can easily choose not to focus on. i mean, do you think the kids from westlake are worried about having food to eat at school as they prepare for cotillion or the debutante ball? nah. that shit is for the poors to worry about. they’re just gonna keep on loving jesus, voting for trump, and enjoying the perks of wealth which separate them from reality.
  22. as funny as this is, it’s still mildly enraging to see english people rationalizing that they lost “1-3”.
