    You new coach will probably play that system as well. Ronaldo has to run a lot more from now on though.

    Best thing that could happen to Kimmich (and Bayern) is that he got Covid. That will stop the endless discussions for now.

    Only themselves to blame. If you lose your group to Serbia and Switzerland respectively, you might not deserve that ticket.

    I really don't know much about him other than he likes to press a lot. Some things I've been reading say that Ronaldo could be the odd man out since he's not exactly defending anyone any more. I didn't get to see the game against Chelsea yesterday but I saw how they lined up and I wondered if that was in anticipation. Sancho and Rashford starting up front and they have no problem pressing. I'd bet he'd like Cavani as well, since he has no problem pressing. I don't like a midfield of 3 defensive mids though. Rangnick seems to like to be more on the front foot. Can't wait to see how this works out.

    Just crazy that Italy got to this point without having lost a game. Clearly didn't win enough of them but still nuts.

    Looks like Man City forgot their game kits and are wearing their traveling t-shirts. Those Puma kits are terrible.

    Kimmich had been campaigning for some vaccine program or something earlier and yet he himself did not take the vaccine out of fear?

    Ragnick saying Fred and McTominay are not good enough in the midfield is HUGE - been saying that for years.....even mentioning that they should not ever have a square pass.....THANK THE HEAVENS.....
