    Has been denied by his piranha agent. They're probably trying to boost the price.

    The way Alaba has been playing lately he won't be missed anyway. Hope we're signing Upamecano to replace him.

    Most of the team has been pretty abysmal unfortunately.

    Flick hasn't really shown any ability to alter his gameplan in preparation of an opponent, the tight schedule or when there are in-game issues, same with his rotation.

    I'm not sure he's the right guy for this team atm, even during the triple we got lucky in the CL tourney several times with Neuer having god-like 1on1 saves and Lewa scoring when necessary.

    Flick seems more like a mid-term motivator that ignites the spirits of a squad and gets them out of a slump in time for tournaments, but I'm not sure he's really capable of developing youngsters or adding new variables to a team's offense and defense.

    Willian and Pepe are so disappointing. What an absolute waste of funds

    Been telling you back in 2017 he was my favourite youth World cup player next to Sancho and Foden.

    The idea that Real Madrid has of capturing young talents before they blow up and they become difficult to buy is awesome, but they are failing these young guns. Odegaard is one of many that they failed to develop into a Real Madrid player. Good thing for Arsenal is that he did play great at Real Sociedad so he has a chance. Don't expect Mesut Ozil, though.

    Good pick. Tuchel is kind of a diva, but exactly what the Russian billionaire toy club needs for their rebuild. He'll teach the kids some good old fn discipline. Especially our fellow Germans will profit from this move. Too bad I can't cheer for them.

    Should be good for Pulisic, too. Teuchel gave him his first opportunities with Dortmund.
