Football (Soccer) Thread

[Admiral Yi]

Yes it would be.


Plus, last time Leeds were in the PL back in the day I remember they were despicably brutal. Screw them.

To be clear, I'm bailing on Chelsea.  Sorry bud.

Hahahaha

United vibes their way to a home win over an injury-ridden tired Liverpool side

woot!

[Josephus]

Well shit. What's going on with Liverpool?

As I said in this post in late May...and apparently even earlier. This isn't new.

As I've said before Liverpool have struggled offensively the past couple months. Salah, especially.

Huh Salah got the golden boot.

"the last couple months"

with the dollar worth more than the euro should this thread be retitled "Soccer (football) thread"?

Be thankful the silly public school nickname even gets a mention.

Champion's League group draws. Tottenham-Frankfurt-Sporting Lisbon-Marseille. 

Absolutely massive corruption by Spurs. Outrageous. Need an FBI investigation like when they got Sepp.

And you have teams like *checks notes* Maccabi Haifa playing in UCL. Laughable.

Meanwhile the Greatest Team in the World is currently top of the PL and has to slum it out in Europa again. It's unacceptable. Bring back the Super League.

Champion's League group draws. Tottenham-Frankfurt-Sporting Lisbon-Marseille. 

Before clandestino rants, that's Sporting CP (Club Portugal). Lisboete bourgeoise is very much into navel-gazing. 

Good draw for Sporting I guess, better than what Benfica got : Juventus, PSG, Benfica, Maccabi Haifa.

Porto being in pot 1 got Atlético Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen (how is the Bundesliga when it's not Bayer or Dortmund ?) and Club Bruges.

[Duque de Bragança]

Draw for all the groups:

Grupo A: Ajax, Liverpool, Nápoles e Rangers

Grupo B: FC Porto, Atlético de Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen e Club Brugge

Grupo C: Bayern, Barcelona, Inter e Viktoria Plzen

Grupo D: Eintracht Francoforte, Tottenham, Sporting CP e Marselha

Grupo E: Milão AC, Chelsea, Salzburgo e Dínamo Zagreb

Grupo F: Real Madrid, Lípsia, Shakhtar Donetsk e Celtic

Grupo G: Manchester City, Sevilha, Borussia Dortmund e Copenhaga

Grupo H: PSG, Juventus, Benfica e Maccabi Haifa

There's a new show on a cable channel I only get cause it's part of a package, FX. It has a new show, a docu series that's part Sunderland Till I Die, part Ted Lasso. It's called Welcome to Wrexham about the 2020 takeover of said club by a couple Hollywood types. Saw first two episodes. Looks interesting.

I've heard of that, it's on my to watch list.

Also recommended to seek out is class of 92 out of their league, about Salford FC, previously non league but bought by big name Man Utd players of the 90s. Since the show they have made their way to the football league.
Pretty interesting I thought for an insight into this lesser known side of football.
