Grande replied to the thread Kobbie Mainoo | 2024/25 Performances.It’s difficult to fathom his drop-off. Kids will do that, though. But it’s hard to understand this is the player who looked a born star for Ten Hag as a 6, as an 8, as a 10, and for Southgate in a 3-5-2.

Grande replied to the thread United Women | Goal of the Season.Yea, it’s a tuff one. I like both goals vs City for combination play and deft finishing. Toone and Galton has two wonderfull strikes, and Terland’s volleu from Bizet’s cross is beautiful. I think I may land on Ella Toone.

Grande replied to the thread Adam Wharton - looks destined for big things..And that is on top of promotions from within: Pereira, McTominay, Garner (didn’t really get a chance, though), Mainoo, (Collyer?). The turnout from academy promotions has been very good in terms of what one can expect, both in terms of adding to...

Grande replied to the thread Rashford | Villa don’t have priority | sell price is set at 40m.My suggestion is rather that we stop looking at the lists of today of ‘Catalan papers’.

Grande replied to the thread WFA Cup Final 25 | United v Chelsea - 1:30pm Sun 18 May.Oh, yeah, those students would make Roy Keane think twice about an academic carreer!

Grande replied to the thread WFA Cup Final 25 | United v Chelsea - 1:30pm Sun 18 May.Broke it? Even Nobby Stiles wouldn’t have done that!

Grande replied to the thread Goal of the Season - 2024/25.Technically, Mazraoui’s foreplay and Højlund’s happy ending is the textbook case, but for climax effect, I have to go for the orgasmic feeling Amad’s penetrating run and saucy inception against City gave me.

Grande replied to the thread Most misspelled football player names in history? (excluding Eastern Europe).Just checking in to see if Johannes ‘Breekijzer’ Vennegoor of Hesselink has made the thread. He calls himself Jan, but I’ve seen him spelled ‘Vennescoor of Hattrick’.

Grande replied to the thread Rasmus Højlund | 2024/25 Performances.All this is true.
-
Grande replied to the thread Amad Diallo | 2024/25 Performances.It is perhaps strange to complain about missing a player who were making his first impacts as a sub a year ago, and has been missing for many months in the meantime (wait, was that from the Mount thread?). Yet I found myself thinking the same...

Grande replied to the thread Mason Mount's Many Misfortunes (please don't make another waste of money post).Mamma mia, manufacture more money making messages, muthas! Mason merits maximising mercantile measures, mods mandate. Meaning moolah. Merci.

Grande replied to the thread Gianluigi Donnarumma.I concur with this. Ødegaard often doesn’t hit it hard enough when placing it, but he really got a squeeze on that one. Covered from sight by a lot of legs as well. When I saw it, I thought there is no way in hell Onana would have saved that one...

Grande replied to the thread Casemiro | 2024/25 Performances.Yes, this is a better description. He deserves his place in today’s eleven on merit, but he still lacks pace and stamina to cover crucial yards if paired with Bruno, Mainoo or Eriksen, and still makes for a limited duo when playing out from the...

Grande replied to the thread 2025 UEFA Champions League final — Paris Saint-Germain vs Inter Milan — Munich Football Arena, Sat 31 May 20:00 BST.I guess this was Bayern and Barca’s take too. Inter to me has shown that they can take anyone in this year’s torunament on their day. This is two well organized teams with good players. Could well be decided on a fluke shot or who makes the...

Grande replied to the thread Mikel Arteta | Lego Pep watch.Someone must make another Amazon documentary getting to the bottom of this. And lining Jeff Bezos’ coffers with more money, more world power and more havoc is not ‘nothing’, though I wish it was ;)
