ETH also provided a breath of fresh air, given how Ole was sacked and the state of the team when ETH arrived. Cutting out bad eggs (unhappy) players from the rest of the team can be beneficial to the team, but it all relies on how those players were sent away.

But the players did not react this way cause Ole was actually loved and respected by the team and fans alike, ETH may have been the bad egg.

Everyone understood how Ronaldo was cut off, but no one understood why Sancho was treated like trash...

Neither of them deserved to be treated the way they were, Ronaldo especially.

The main problem facing the managers of today is the lack of discipline and super high egos of some young and not so young players.

Ten Hag can be a very good manager, but when he arrives to a much bigger team where some other players are not used to his discipline and you fail in bring results and the rest of the team starts to look at you not a sa savior and more like a tyrant and after that is not coming back all the way down.

ETH is more stubborn, he doesn't want Sancho anymore then he is treated like a trash player with no value, but now he has adjusted himself, showing he is still great.

He came from teams like Ultrecht and Ajax. He was given the respect that he wanted on those clubs but its different situation when it comes to a top club in EPL. On a top teams, managers gotta earn the respect from players especially when the clubs are full of top players. He didnt earn enough respect from the players especially after all those issue with specifics players so yeah every felt apart eventually

Sancho is a good player but it seems he clicked a wrong button on ETH then everything break down between him and ETH. Shit tons of stuff happened after that. It all started after Ronaldo calling him out though

ETH has said before that he wants stricter player discipline, with some players being weeded out and others coming in but eventually becoming as messy as his current fate.

Everyone understood how Ronaldo was cut off, but no one understood why Sancho was treated like trash; he was struggling to adjust to his new environment and didn't deserve to be thrown out like that; he lost the dressing room and the players the day he made that decision. Younger coaches understand younger players better; hopefully, Amorim can be that man.

Pep agreed one year contract extension. Lol

Thankfully that means he'll be defending his title. Tongue

Maybe they actually had not, maybe his energy was off-putting, maybe he was more concerned with his ego than the team, maybe they were never in support of ostracizing players, maybe Amorim really has been a breath of fresh air these past days.
Maybe if all the players all have something in common, the one man is the one in the wrong.

If I was Amorim I can't wait to send off half the players. He supposedly has to stick with them until new season but the posts they are making are so dumb. Like was said, as if suddenly Amorim appears and they are training. Like WTH. Proof they were just being assholes when ETH was there.

@Igebotz if you are seriously considering it, we will raise funds for you. 100 satoshi from me guaranteed. I wanna see you show a red card to Pep. Just don't snort coke and let someone video it man seriously.

No man, My gambling records and habits would not allow it; I swear if I ever become a referee, I will make all of my friends richer by offering free booking odds every weekend. Grin

Bro you are the sheriff, you will not be corrupt. You will clean the referee industry and make more money from it.

8 or 9 times out of 10 Liverpool will beat Southampton. You can never be totally certain though, football is played on a pitch, not on paper.

We only lost 1 game in the PL so far this season and it was directly after an international break (to Nottingham Forest). So coming back from an international break can potentially disrupt rhythm.

I do not expect there to be any disruption in rhythm, but I am hoping that maybe the players take their eye off the ball a little with a tough schedule ahead involving Madrid (H), City (H), Newcastle (A) and a derby match against Everton (A). Southampton looks like an easy win to set up the momentum for these matches, but that can sometimes make the team complacent and this will be the 1 out of 10.

Quote from: LFC_Bitcoin on November 19, 2024, 02:57:00 PM

If I had a gun to my head, I would say Liverpool win but who knows. Arsenal should beat Forest, surely they have to start slipping up soon. Chris Wood is not Haaland, surely his purple patch will be over. I think Man City will win too to be honest.

He may not be Haaland but he is a seasoned striker, wish we had one of those.

Quote from: CryptopreneurBrainboss on November 19, 2024, 06:03:49 PM

I think so too, Liverpool should get an easy win but as for Arsenal and City, I think they have a better chance of drawing them winning. Tottenham will be coming all out for city, the mentality will be that they have won them before this season so they can do it again.

But that was not at the Etihad and with their last performance I will not have high hopes for Tottenham.

Quote from: Igebotz on November 20, 2024, 02:25:13 AM

The level of peak fooling in the club is absurd; from their legends to current players, there is just one training section with Amorim, and all of the players are already acting as if all they had with ETH was for nothing, sharing pictures as if they had never had a decent training section in years.

Maybe they actually had not, maybe his energy was off-putting, maybe he was more concerned with his ego than the team, maybe they were never in support of ostracizing players, maybe Amorim really has been a breath of fresh air these past days.

Do not trust Tottenham against a big team, especially when a lot is expected of them; they always disappoint. City will dog walk Tottenham this weekend, and it won't even be a close game. The only game that could go either way this weekend is Arsenal vs Nottingham Forest.

We still have to wait for more days before the games begin and my interest for this weekend games is that of Man U against Ipswich. I want to see how the squad plays under their new manager. They improved under the interim but he's gone now. Saw the posts from some of the United players praising their training with Amorim. So let see what they give us for a show on Sunday.

They are going to win Ipwish Town and begin hyping Amorim in the next 6 months, get him sacked in 12 months, and look for another Germ.

Looking at the fixtures, this could be another week for Liverpool where Arsenal and City drop points with the opponents they are up against, we are both at home so that should count for something but nothing more than a convincing win will help the recent bad form.

Last few days of yet another international break. I’m kinda sick of moaning about it but it’s the third international break of the season which has only been going for three months, ridiculous really. Something has to be done about it soon, total disruption to club football.

Any way, the real action is back this weekend. Here are the fixtures -

I would assume they are traveling by a plane and there isn't that much difference if you are traveling from one side of England to the other or to some close by country like France. It's not like they are referring in their home town every weekend.

England and UK are not in the EU so there is a difference, and they dont always fly with the plane in Premier League.

If I could fly abroad for work every weekend and return to my family the same weekend, I would gladly take it. Not a big deal.

Isn't it just better to swap countries? I mean if you are big United supporter and you hate Liverpool you shouldn't be refereeing in England but why not trying your luck in Germany or Spain.

With the quality of officiating in the league I do not think many referees will actually make it into other leagues very easily.

On the circulating video, it was not exactly about liking or disliking a particular club, but even if a referee has a favorite club, at this level of the game they should be able to stay professional and do their jobs. If they cannot do that, there are so many more events that can affect their decisions on a regular basis.

A ref having few mistake is no biggie but when it become repeated and a pattern then they have no excuse and should be punished. Maybe you're on to something right there, referee of other sports should ref other sports lol. I can't just imagine how chaotic this decision will be.

Right? But ya, it would be chaotic but it would reduce so much problems in ALL the sports.

If you ask me to referee tennis for example, I would be so super not biased as I don't support anybody. Or F1 lol

And I bet if you asked NFL referee to judge cricket, nobody would say he is biased towards any team.

All referees hate some clubs. All football fans hate one or two or more clubs. Its okay to say it, I hate Real Madrid. I don't think we should punish people so badly for having passion.

Hating some club and coach is not that important for him like taking drugs Grin

Trust me 50% of these high paid refs, football players etc take drugs lol. 90% of my colleagues are taking some kind of drug when they party, and I know they see a lot of semi famous athletes at these parties Wink

Then if they get caught (its random testing so you are unlucky to get caught) they blame it on some tea or some vitamin supplement lol

Damn, I have a freebet from the Mike Tyson promo but I can't use it on that match! SB should make freebets at least 1 week expiry. So I went here instead.
