The Rumour Commode XXXV: Champions Edition

[Congo Powers]

I believe he is. Haven't been worse than Romagnoli this season and he's at least someone to build on.

Poor guy have had to play together with Gabbia.

if kjaer was available, rommel would be in the appropriate position for depth. it is too soon for him along with gabbia, yes

 

[R.Akbar]

Haaland couldn't score against a second division side today without a penalty and his team lost. To a second division side. Players miss chances. It happens.

Ibra has scored a lot. He has 8 goals in 14 games, that's a very good scoring rate. Giroud has come up with huge goals, like his goal against Torino.

Kalulu made two huge mistakes yesterday that Spezia scored from, Kalulu is more at fault than Ibra, but Gyasi should have never been on the field after the 51st minute. He should have been sent off multiple times.

If Napoli didn't happen, if Atletico didn't happen, if Porto (twice) didn't happen, if Roma didn't happen, if Verona didn't happen, if Atalanta didn't happen, sure, I'd be pissed but things would be different, sporting-wise, as well.

We have had 10 years worth of scandalous ref decisions against us in the span of a few months. Where a team that is fighting through injuries, covid, and AFCON suspensions, playing youth team players (and that's what Kalulu, Gabbia, and Maldini are) and still getting results, to me, I see a team that can only fight through so much.

We have scored more to take it out of the ref's hands. We did that against Roma, and Verona, and Atalanta. We did against Spezia, Messias scored, that shot was top corner, it was a goal.

I don't like to put on ref's error as a variable that I would change since it's an uncontrollable one.

I also won't undermine Ibra's role. Even if he doesn't score, I'd still like to keep him at the team. As a mascot, or so they say, just to make sure that he got the spotlight so the rest of the boys won't have to worry much about media exposure.

But having a cynical & highly reliable finisher would be a dream come true, in reality (or in FIFA ).

 

[General]

Doing better today, but still pissed. I mean, what is life?

General, you'd be interested to know that the veil temporarily fell and Bonetti ranted in a video about the decision. He was incensed. At least it seemed that way.

would you be so kind as to share this said video?

[milanazkals]

Still mad at that Spezia game. Fuck that ref. On the positive noted, Rebic changed the game. I’m glad he’s back.

 

[OVUNQUE CON TE]

Just get the feeling that finishing top 4 this year is so important, if we can do it then our next 5 years will be super exciting.

 

[ROSSONERI7]

Conti’s life at Samp started well… well, they still lost and knocked out. but he scored a nice goal. Happy for him. So unfortunate in his career

 

[Neruda]

pellegri was meant to be the second coming of marco van basten according to some guys here. now he's off to torino

literally no one said that. I forget, did you used to go by stevan?

 

[Samaldinho]

We are buying Pellegri for 4m and loaning him out to Torino according to Di Marzio.

his floor potential is petagna, fantastic business paolo

 

[R.Akbar]

his floor potential is petagna, fantastic business paolo

or a 29 y/o Van Basten

 

[Congo Powers]

well that would be 9 years from now

 

[R.Akbar]

well that would be 9 years from now

29 y/o van basten = retiree

 

[Congo Powers]

exactly, pellegri has almost a decade to do something

 

[Tantalis]

toni became good at 26 for palermo

Tantalis,

don't be like a regular casual EPL fans who compares 31 y/o James Vardy with 31 y/o Wayne Rooney

But in Pellegri case,
i'd like to see a season where he is healthy and become a regular.

 

[Neruda]

how many points are left contested in the competition

Around 48

Leao needs help. He can either create the chances or he can score them, but expecting him to do both every game AND press and chase back? Recipe for burnout.

Jawz Scouting

1. Luka Jovic - undervalued property that Real will want to offload once the next big thing becomes available. Primarily left footed meaning crosses from the left will be met with violence. Great box finisher. Mobile, and can hold ball with his strength. Like a Lautaro+++ . Loan with obligation-able purchase due to not reaching expectations.
2. Noah Okafor - every time I see RB Salzburg highlights I’m impressed by this kid, he’s got pace and finishing and never seems to stop running. Plays every attacking position. Probably going to go for 30-40 M, but is overshadowed by Adeyemi.
3. Sebastian Haller - a really underrated player, uses his size to help setup chances and still manages to score when given opps. Ajax wouldn’t hold him if someone came with money.
4. Alexander Sorloth - another big guy who can score and knock balls down for his teammates, good feet as well.
