If you're running an ad it would actually be better to do so during the NCAA women's championship. But overall the point remains, women's sports are gaining more traction and that's often times without them getting equal airtime. And to say no one cares is just ridiculous. We celebrate our team here and most of the players are household names. Quote While we're on topic of men's vs women's basketball, currently Women's Eurobasket is ongoing and I've watched Serbia's game against Hungary. The difference in the level of quality is staggering. Serbia's point guard was being praised for 4/12 FGs made. Come on, Russell Westbrook would be embarrassed about that. Maybe Serbia just sucks. Our ladies kicked your asses last time they played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sunland Lord Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 (edited) That's a high salary they offer him. Edit: Probably Romano is just wrong or he can't comprehend the difference between net and gross. Edited June 21, 2023 by The Sunland Lord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Brown Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 So is this the start of Newcastle's early City era equivalent? I wonder who their Danny Mills will be? Sitting in his pants, not even going into the same room as a football, and getting paid obscene weekly wages for an eternity for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serbia's won Women's Eurobasket and an Olympic bronze in recent years, so it's fair to say they don't suck. At least when compared to other women playing basketball.

We'll have to wait and see what bid City puts in. Phillips has said that he intends to stay at City. https://twitter.com/City_Zone_/status/1671190070097854465 Edited June 22, 2023 by Consigliere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Horse Named Stranger Posted June 22, 2023 Author Share Posted June 22, 2023 I mean, I can see him not wanting to go to West Ham as part of a package or something, but Rice's arrival would certainly further limit his prospects. So if likesay Arsenal switched targets and instead decided to drop 40-50m on him instead of 100m on Rice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) There might be a place for him. Rodri is simply a better footballer so Phillips is always going to be his backup. Rice is equally good (arguably better) as a box-to-boxer and that's the role I see Guardiola using him in. There's also been reports that Saudi Arabia have made an offer to Bernardo Silva which he is considering.

A Horse Named Stranger Posted June 22, 2023 Author Share Posted June 22, 2023 Yeah, but usually Guardiola talks up the players that he rates, but don't see that much game time. Esp. the younger players. With Phillips, all I can recall is Guardiola telling him to lose after the Blood Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse Named Stranger Posted June 22, 2023 Author Share Posted June 22, 2023 van den Berg is just 21, so he can still work out ok for you. This season he picked up a long term injury on loan, and only just got back for last five games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget Joelinton, he has been a fucking beast for us, his Brazil call up was well deserved. I still think we need back up for Wilson and Isak, and another wide player if Howe doesn't fancy ASM.
