  1. Another double today for Håland for 10-man Dortmund against Wolfsburg. All he needs is a chance.
  2. I saw them this morning and they just don't look quite legitimate. To me, they look like those unlicensed knockoffs that can't use official logos and insignias that you find at discount shops and TJMaxx.
  3. The voters on FootballShirtCulture really love it. I'm not keen on it. It just looks a bit clumsy and Frankensteiney to me.
  4. N'golo Kante is a humble, hardworking dude who keeps his head down and gets the job done. N'golo Kanye is a raving narcissist who declared himself "Ballon d'Or Winner 4 Life" and tried to give the women's award to Beyoncé.
  5. I like goals where people kick the ball hard.
  6. I've seen some really impressive glimpses from Sancho, but I also wouldn't bet against you.
  7. My guess is he'll be more consistent than Sancho.
  8. As if on cue, Bellingham was just booked for a sliding tackle.
  9. I've watched a fair bit of Dortmund this season and Bellingham is the real deal. They've been at sixes and sevens in the league and it may take some time for Marco Rose to sort them out before they're firing on all cylinders again, but Bellingham has looked the part despite the lack of coherence around him.
  10. Bigger clubs than we will be in for him—that's for sure. He was made for the Premier League. I, for one, would love to have him here. The Keinan Davis comparisons may have seemed apt two months ago when people were trying to get their head round what kind of player he is, but anymore there's just no comparison. One literally does not score and the other finds a way to put the ball into the back of the net. The focus on Dike's physical attributes also diminishes his skill. The boy can play. He had his worst game for Barnsley this weekend against 'Boro and still managed to score. He went from nowhere (college soccer) to MLS without a long bedding-in period and made the transition to the Championship in roughly 45 minutes. He might take a little longer to adjust to the Premier League, but he will adjust and prove his value.

    Excellent! I've never found a club that would have me!

    I envy you! I had the opportunity to explore a bit (and get scarily lost) when I lived in Israel, but most of my running has been urban and urban adjacent with little opportunity to branch out beyond the well trodden—not that running isn't a fun way to learn a new city. One of these days, when the world opens back up, I'm hoping to be able to travel and explore the unknown again.

    King of the Mountain by default is still King of the Mountain! Have you tried the AllTrails app? I did a search and Nepal is on its list of "supported countries", but I don't entirely know how their local and regional catalogues are built—whether they're based on global mapping or user input. It might be worth a shot.

    Nice! I'll be adding you on Strava. There've got to be some fantastic routes where you are!

    Yeah, I've really got everything I need with the free version. I think the only thing it may have that I'd be particularly interested is personal heat maps. I tend to keep it pretty simple and don't even use too many of the advanced features on my Garmin Forerunner 935. Press button. Wait for beep. Press button again. Go.
  16. There's nothing in this but "here's a player I'd like to see with us", but Valencia's Yunus Musah is comfortable out wide or in central midfield, tidy on the ball, and full of running. A prospect at just 18, he's already worked his way into the U.S. midfield alongside Tyler Adams and Weston McKennie. I imagine Valencia has big plans for him, but he's not getting a lot of minutes with them at the moment.
  17. I know the match isn't over yet, but for some reason I find this absolutely mesmerizing. Let me know who wins.
  18. I don't think I'm going to make it till May. Oh, for the club! Right. We'll be fine.

    As soon as I add the sweatband, I'm essentially this guy: Alright, I'll do it.

    I used to run in Villa shorts until the practicality of dedicated running shorts won out.
