  1. He very much reminds me of Darwin Núñez
  2. It sure looks like the owner is asset stripping right now
  3. if it's a pen, then it is the double jeopardy rule where it's a yellow card and not a red.
  4. Billing had a similar one vs Palace last month
  5. probably because he plays a full 90 almost every game and we don't have anyone to put in for him
  6. terrible tackle, clearly a red. Didn't play the ball and cynical intent to injure. Brilliant move, captain. Now the 3 match ban hits
  7. anyone arguing that's not a red is biased. that's a clear red -- no attempt for the ball and endangered player safety
  8. Yep, and Spurs have all three in a row during April
  9. the guy who should've been sent off gets the winner
  10. I kept on thinking that, but I don't really see what the long-term strategy for democrats is. Who is the next in line?
  11. he leans more conservative, so I can see why. I've talked politics to him before, and he thinks that Biden is incompetent. The thing I've seen is that the republicans don't think it "is tough enough on illegal immigration"
  12. Also -- this might be unpopular, but I would've sold Kamara before any of these 6 if he hadn't gotten injured.
  13. not sure why Pau is even an option here tbh -- in a hypothetical, Konsa would get moved before he would as there is legitimately no one close itw to what Pau brings as a ball playing center back & we just signed him. I'd say Luiz and Ramsey are the most "realistic" options if we needed a sale for ffp. If I'd put them in order that I'd consider selling: McGinn Ramsey Martinez Luiz Watkins Pau
  14. one of my friends is one of these people. he voted for Biden in '20 as he disagreed with the way that Trump handled COVID and now is going to Trump as he does not like the way Biden is running/handling the nation currently (specifically on immigration).
  15. 25th amendment, it goes to the VP until the president is able to fulfill the presidential duties. If the president dies, then the VP becomes the next president.
  16. Stephen Warnock was on commentary for the Manchester derby on the viewing in the states and he mentioned our win quite a few times when talking about tactics and how teams have been able to get at Man City
  17. no matter what happens over the summer, we can't just have him as the only senior LB in the squad. We look far too weak defensively with him at LB as compared to Digne
  18. Nico Williams gets a second yellow for applauding the ref vs Betis
  19. quite a professional performance from him I thought. Was able to hold the ball up and won it back a few times which allowed us to get out of pressure. Coming on before Diaby is interesting as well.
  20. yep, a lot of what @Zatman said is what I would say. NBC is paying $2.7 billion for the next 6 years of PL tv rights over here in the states. That's an eye watering sum for it and they are growing the game with other things as well. I also would say that the fanbase over in the US is much more likely to follow a PL club not due to a player whereas most of the Asian countries are focused on following a player (Spurs, Wolves, & Arsenal atm). I understand the point you are making with going to south America (Argentina in particular), but the fan culture isn't going to mesh well with what Villa would be trying to achieve. I can't even remember if/when Real Madrid or Barcelona (with their global popularity) went on tour in South America last. Though, I am surprised we aren't doing anything with Kobe.
  21. There’s a reason that PL teams & the big European teams annually come to the states. The market here is huge and is exponentially growing. Funnily, I was listening to C&B earlier and the international markets was mentioned on a few questions. i can see parts of Asia being a good place to go on a tour (South Korea, Japan, China, India) but we still don’t have that player which will be the first step in increasing revenue there. South America is generally a no go for most European teams — I don’t really recall the last time any major team went on tour there.
  22. He didn’t? What he did have was the control over footballing matters (signing players) and now it’s been widely reported that Unai is at the top of the footballing structure now.
