Premier League 2024-25 (13 Viewers)

The English media are a joke. City won a doped treble last year but no one cared at the time. Instead they were praising the strength of English football.

The Premier League and FA must own this mess. You dance with the devil you are going to get burnt.

I wouldn't be surprised if all of this leads to a Super League. If Manchester City agree to join Real Madrid and Barcelona, what is stopping the other big boys from doing the same?

I'm willing to bet at least two teams from that list don't make the Semis.

That's a pretty safe bet since semifinals consist of 4 teams total

Well, aren't you the perceptive one?

I don't see what's wrong. It's an English channel and England have a top 3 squad in the tournament. They are definitely one of the contenders for sure.

Looking forward to see what improvements the duo Mainoo- Bellingham will bring to the team.

One day they'll be right as well. But even though Opta are a British company there is no bias here, it's all stats and AI driven. England have one of the best squads, one of the best records, the tournament is in a country with similar playing conditions, etc. For these reasons England and France are the bookies' favourites also.

Ofcourse they do, especially Newcastle who have richer owners than man city but can't even flex their financial muscle

"Maupay posts picture of himself with darts (hours after Maddison’s Euros omission)"

I love the shithousery from Maupay especially when he does it against Arsenal

Grealish also not called up sike

Most importantly, Harry Maguire also missed out.

Ten Hag to remain Man Utd manager after review

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c511vlg7jvno

And rightly so that they stuck with the manager who won them the League Cup AND FA Cup! Trust the process, another £300m spend and it will all come together.

 

[Mokku]

Yeah, they were openly talking to Tuchel and when he declined, they give Ten Hag the 'vote of confidence'. I'd quit United 2 minutes before their first EPL game starts. Absolute joke team.

My 2 cents:

The incoming Director of Football (Dan Ashworth) hasn't arrived yet.

We've known for a while now that the C-Suite at Manchester United have a long standing admiration for Gareth Southgate, but he isn't available at the moment.

The fans had a backlash after that Guardian article before the FA Cup final which claimed EtH would be sacked regardless of the result.

The least worst option in their opinion was to keep EtH.

Wrong decision for me.

The manager "review" was the fucking season and the absolute shite performances. Their judgement is completely clouded by winning the FA Cup against a hungover Manchester City. Wigan did the same and were relegated LOL.

If the decision was based only on winning the FA Cup then that is hilariously short-sighted. Easy to forget that they were a questionable VAR offside away from losing the semi to a Championship team. He'd surely have been sacked at that point.

Must have been a really difficult decision for Southgate that.

I think it more has to do with the lack of great candidates available right now. If you fire ten Hag and hire another mediocre manager, by January, fans will be calling for that new manager to get sacked.

It almost feels like they're just buying time and keeping with the status-quo and hoping someone better will emerge down the road. That's a dangerous game to play, but I understand the move.

And there's no way they can give him any power for big decisions in the transfer market.

oh boy. next stop lazio lol
