polishgenius Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 2 minutes ago, Tywin et al. said: If the courts ruled in his favor I don’t see why other players couldn’t say it applies to them as well. The point is that very few other players have a clause that lets them release themselves. If anything it'd be more likely to help clubs if a player is due to be able to leave on a free and clubs would be able to delay that on the basis of unforseen circumstances. I can't think of many other circumstances where it might help a player leave a club, except if they have a timed release clause due to expire, and that would need a buying club to be interested and benefitting as well.

Consigliere Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Shocking piece of defending from Brentford. Shades of United against Basaksehir. Looks like Brentford are going to bottle yet another play-off. ETA. Brentford pull one back from the penalty spot. This game is really heating up.

Consigliere Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Even worse, it was Saudi fucking Arabia that lobbied Fifa to look into the feasibility of holding the WC every two years and the Fifa congress has voted in favour of the Saudis proposal 166-22 to conduct a feasibility study. Knowing how corrupt and partial to bribery Fifa executives are there's a decent chance that this could actually happen, as moronic as it is.

polishgenius Posted May 22, 2021 Author Share Posted May 22, 2021 Leeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwyyyyyyyyyyyy I feel bad for him playing in the same generation as Ronaldo and Messi, if they hadn't distorted goalscoring standards beyond all recognition he'd have been rightfully acknowledged as an ATG long before this. In any normal era of football he'd definitely have been competing with your Zidanes and Ronaldo9s for the honour of best player in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Horse Named Stranger Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 And Werder dropped, just as I feared. They were pummeled by Gladbach who were fighting for the conference league spot, which they failed to grab, because Union managed to beat Leipzig and thus stayed one point clear of Gladbach. Curious whether clubs will come knocking for some of Gladbach's players. Thuram could be a nice addition for the right team. At the same time Köln managed to beat Schalke 1-0 (after having one goal ruled out for offside, which was arguably a more outrageous call than the one from the West Brom - Liverpool game). They nevertheless just kept on attacking and eventually managed to score that one vital goal to lift them above Werder and unto the relegation play-off spot. The Lewandowski record goal was kinda funny. Bayern scored 4 goals in the first half, just Lewandowski couldn't beat Gikiewicz (who denied him three times for his record goal). Last minute Gikiewicz couldn't hold onto a long range attempt by Sane and Lewandowski was there for the rebound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse Named Stranger Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Talking about the Bundesliga what I forgot was, that Sami Khedira has ended his career. And what a career it was. Also Lewandowski is now chasing after another Müller record. Lewandowski has now topped the Bundesliga Goalscorer list six times. Müller has done so seven times.

Also a fantastic comeback win from Real Betis after going two goals down to Celta Vigo. They then had a player sent off but held on for the win that secures them 6th place and automatic entry to the EL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mormont Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 In Scotland, St Johnstone win the Scottish Cup to complete a double with the League Cup. That's the first time since the 1980s that a club outside the Old Firm has won both cups in Scotland, and Callum Davidson did it in his first season as a (permanent) manager. (He had a brief caretaker spell as player-manager at St Johnstone in 2014.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 I wish just getting news about La Liga was easier here, let alone coverage. This thread can be more helpful than a Google search at times. Very happy for Suarez, but this likely means his MLS timeline is pushed back even further, if it ever happens. Wonder how this complicates Messi's decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
