Cash or Czech Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Arsenal ManU a solid match today. GG @Keirik I really love having Zinny back and Gabriel in the back-4. Enough of this Partey RB bullshit. This should show that experiment needs to end, and the injury could be a blessing in disguise. Play Partey in Havertz’s place, that guy’s a fuckin donkey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash or Czech Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 My biggest worry continues to be depth. With Timber out an extended period of time, another injury could be debilitating to our hopes of a deep Champions League run and another title push in the Prem. We have three CBs (Gabriel, Saliba, Kiwior) and four full backs (Zinchenko, White, Tomiyasu, and Cedric). Same with the midfield and up top. Need to pray for health even with the increased fixture count. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-Dreamer Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 So FIFA announced today that Spain, Portugal and Morocco will share-host the 2030 World Cup, but also there will be a game each in Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay to celebrate 100 years of World Cups (the first one was in Uruguay). https://www.fifa.com/about-fifa/organisation/fifa-council/media-releases/fifa-council-takes-key-decisions-on-fifa-world-cup-tm-editions-in-2030-and-2034 getting sillier every time.

Because they wanna have their cake and eat it too, if they wanted to celebrate the first ever World Cup by having games in South America, they should have held the whole thing there. Of course there's probably no country in SA outside Brazil that can pay for all the shiny new stadiums and infrastructure needed for a modern WC. (and Brazil really should have used that money elsewhere too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking massive How Kovacic wasnt sent off in that game is an absolute disgrace. Michael Oliver needs to explain why a week before the game he is reffing games in the UAE and then comes back and gives City an absolutely unexplainable break.

Cash or Czech Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 @Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc what’s Cole Palmer’s future role with Chelsea? Thinking of adding him on FPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking of adding him on FPL Atleast for now he’s definitely a starter. We usually play 4231 with a midfield of Caicedo, Enzo and Gallagher. The last couple of games Gallagher has been the #10 while Enzo and Caicedo lay a bit deeper. Palmer plays as an inverted-winger on the right side, kind of the same role he used to play for City. I don’t really know how it will look when/if we have a fully fit squad. Lavia will be fighting for a spot in the midfield, the same will Chukwumeka, who had a great start to the season before the injury at West Ham and we also have Nkunku who will take one of the 3 spots behind the striker (or maybe he’ll play as the striker). Madueke will be fighting for the right wing spot as well. I think Palmer is our most creative offensive midfielder/winger. He sees passes others don’t and his passing is amazing. It’s easy to see that he’s been a City player. Personally I would like to see Palmer as the #10 because he got all the attributes needed to succeed there. He works on the wing as well, but he lacks a bit of pace so he’s not as dynamic when he’s out wide as he is roaming behind the striker. The only problem with this is that Gallagher has been really good so far this season and Poch seems to trust him more than any one else at the moment, so I’m struggling to see him bench Gallagher. I think long-term Palmer will be a #10 but for now he’ll mainly play on the right. I think the team against Arsenal will be this: Jackson Sterling Gallagher Palmer Enzo Caicedo Colwill Silva Disasi James Sanchez Against weaker sides I could see him drop one of Enzo/Gallagher/Caicedo, put Palmer as the #10 and use another winger to be more offensive, but the lineup posted above will probably be our most used in the next 7-8 games. I do think Palmer’s a good choice for FPL, but our program the next 7-8 games are tough as hell, so it could get ugly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out there's another factor in why three continental federations are involved in 2030, because now the only Federation left to host in 2034 is the Asian one and a certain Arab country has been pumping money into FIFA and African voter-nations.
