I wonder if someone at barca has considered that paying huge sums of money for and then paying players stupid wages may not be the most sustainable of football practices. Probably not
They are 7th right now. Real have already won the title and are probably thinking of champions league title already as main end of season focus. Barca simply have to respond whether its ego, desperation or what. How any bank and throw more money at them I dont know.
The BBC ranking who has the most time between games over Christmas hasn't even got the correct fixture for us let alone the right date. We play 26th and 28th. Which other teams are doing that?
Most other teams tbf Everyone apart from newcastle manchester united Chelsea Brighton Brentford city Everton burnley At least we play 12:30 on 26th then 8pm on 28th so longest gap possible
Which is even worse as you cannot prepare a team to play those times optimally. Almost need 2 separate teams.
United get most rest. longest gap between each game. 3 & 4 day rest. Compared to most who only get 2 then 4 day 27th 8pm 30th 8:15 3rd Jan 5:30
Klopp says managers are having a moan at the prem today. Says no games on 28th as they could have all been on 39th. No chance. It's called tv. He's also said he'd play one semi final and no problem to be away to arsenal. Again no chance. Rodgers said 5 subs so imo that's what might just happen here.
C.Ronaldo as scored more goals against Neuer than any other player... ... they've never played in the same league!
I'd have saved 3 of those and frankly alisson would have stopped the lot. Not a proper shot in the lot
Tbh I didn't check any other games I just thought it was bad reporting about us and wrong on every count ie. the opponent, the date and claiming we had the longest gap between games of all teams.
I think they’re talking about the new year game as wel. but what they also fail to mention is we played yesterday (along with few other teams) Where as 75% of the prem didn’t play midweek. Plus half the Prem have had a nice week rest before these games after their games were called off. Such a pointless article as far more into the whole period than just these few games. Plus let’s be real. What difference doesn 10 hours total rest time actually make over the period? Also I’m guessing it doesn’t take into account home/away games so travel to and from etc
Hilarious. We get to.put purr feet up and get all our players training cos leeds are playing games. Meanwhile leicester get pure karma Out of the leavue cup, played their best team but have to turn round and get reamed v city and 48 hours later have to face us with no team I bet they fake covid as well. The fa need to start asking for government certified test results via pcr for every player reported as I'd not put it past beilsa to be faking at all.
why would Bielsa start faking it now ffs . Think the closure of their training ground on advice from local health body might have more to do with it .
