And the Scottish FA need to crack down with these teams flouting Covid directives. I'd suggest something along the lines of a 25 point deduction for Aberdeen, and a 50 point deduction for Celtic.

Of course Ed Woodward will do his best to ensure that this will not happen, as his amazing football senses have told him that Crewe Alexandria have a promising 28 year old midfielder who would be a better fit.

Sports has always been used as a platform to project political ideas and manipulate opinion in favour of regimes. Real Madrid were francisco franco's mouthpiece, for example. The premier league itself, acts as the UK's primary cultural export or 'soft power'. Its hard to get away from the politics. I'm surprised we haven't had a european super league yet. Surely the champions league in its current form is becoming stale and in need of evolution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sportswashing propaganda projects for some of the most vile regimes in the world. I was thinking about this a little more; if the Premier League allows foreign countries to own clubs, and directly hold a stake in the league's future -- aren't they protecting themselves from the threat of a European super league? Any european super league would threaten the Premier league's world-wide dominance. I'm certain that spanish, german and italian leagues have no reservations about merging their top clubs into one european super league. Television broadcasting and streaming revenue would be far greater, and the spectacle of top clubs playing each other every week would make the Premier league appear second rate. The premier league is trying to prevent this by effectively giving other countries a say in european football's future. If they're forced to debate the existence of the champions league, they can count on getting reliable support from elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Jet Posted October 5, 2020 Author Share Posted October 5, 2020 Woodward and the Glazers legitimately need to be thrown into a bear pit. F*cking parasite scum. Grealish and Sancho were two of the most obvious signings in history, especially with our new Brexit FC look. Will pay £80m for Harry f*cking Maguire - the fridge with legs - but wont shell out a little more for genuine world class talent. F*cking disgrace. But hey at least we got Edinson Cavani, who is a phenomenal signing. In 2010. Doesn't scream of desperation at all when you sign a free agent four hours from the f*cking deadline. Remember when Ed told us he pulled out of the Dybala deal because he thought he was a mercenary? And our sheep fans just ate it all up? Wasn't at all obvious that the whole thing was a façade to get Inter to pay up for Lukaku and improve that sweet net spend. We literally hired a propagandist to spin his bullsh*t. I actually feel bad for Telles, who is a quality player but not suited whatsoever to this team. Far more suited to Wolves, Spurs or Chelsea who have legit #9 to work with. Shambles of a club from the top down. Actually sort of delighted for Jose who was the only f*cking guy who had the balls to call out the board for what they were. They couldn't give a sh*t about the product on the pitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that they leeched money out of Old Trafford (which is falling apart because they won't pay for adequate maintenance) to sign Tom f**king Brady is just the icing on the f**king cake.

A few years ago the Buccaneers fans were giving out about how the Glazers were only interested in United. Now they seem delighted with them. Funny how it all works out. Some United fans even got hoodwinked by their little spending spree a few years ago when they're not putting a penny of their own money into the club. Woodward is the highest paid executive in the league I believe despite the disastrous results on the pitch. It shows they don't care, the priority isn't the football and hasn't been for a long time. It's only important so far as it effects the brand. It's depressing but it isn't changing any time soon. The only way they're going is if it's an oil state buying, which is even more soul destroying.

But <rich PL club> vs <poor PL club> is more often than not, a complete mismatch. When i first started watching football, in the early 2000s, teams like Man Utd and Arsenal had to work harder to win matches, the football may not have been as 'technically' good, but it was fast-paced, end to end, with many moments of individual skill. You had more characters. The quality of goals was superior, as was the atmosphere and the 'optics' - it looked very attractive compared to today's game, which feels like a video game simulation. Look at the footage from those days, it feels like a different sport: The tiki-taka nonsense has sucked the individuality out of the game, now you have a bunch of juiced up robots playing mundane short-range passing patterns, refusing to take risks and looking to finish goals the same way. Then you have under-achieving talents becoming huge stars before accomplishing anything, like Pogba. Yes, i know he won a world cup, but the standard of his weekly performances are not worth his price tag. And he doesn't give a ****. Social media has removed all the 'intrigue' and exposed these guys as the 'knobheads' they truly are. The game, in its current form, has grown stale. Maybe a change would make it interesting again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Division Marduk Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Couldn't agree more about tiki taka crap. Loved watching United in the days when you had the likes of Kanchelskis, Sharpe and Giggs just bombing down the wings, and the thing about the Fergie teams, they were lethal on the counter attack. These days, it's all patient build up waiting and waiting. It's like they're trying to bore the defence to sleep or something. And that's just about everyone. I remember the goal against Brighton at the end of last season and thinking "Holy s**t, when was the last time United scored a goal like that?" Does football get any better than this? Really? And the second goal. And as for getting rid of Pogba, he should never have been brought back. Shame we can't clone King Eric and unleash him again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
