I mean this club threw out KDB even after he offered to take pay cut and reduced playtime.

Players naturally will not have any loyalty to this club.

Haaland is pretty stupid to sign that contract till 2034 too.
KDB was fucking washed, there was no point in keeping him there even for half the money.

I watched a few of Napoli's games, he was good in some of them but mediocre throughout the rest of the season.

He was even more awful during the World Cup.

Kdb always subpar for Belgium


He's still technically good for super sub.


Remember aging Modric for Real Madrid

As expected lol

UAE will basically blackmail the cucked UK government to let Shitty off
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/20...urnham-over-man-city-pull-billions-out-of-uk/
UAE has poured nearly £30 billion (about $39.7 billion) into the United Kingdom's economy in many sectors including defence through the UAE-UK Sovereign Investment Partnership (SIP) in last 5 years.


The current UAE-UK investment partnership is up for discussion ahead of an Abu Dhabi summit held in London later this month, with British officials eager to secure more commitments.

British PM - “I would be really concerned to lose them,” Burnham said. “They’ve been such a huge partner in the building of modern Manchester.”

UAE is also planning to invest US$1.4 trillion in the USA.

Rival club fans thought they'd cook Mancity :kobeha:

@gz89 idk if this is true or not but apparently there's some reports going around

---> Ronaldo wasn't meant to play against Norway and Denmark. He chose to travel with the team.

--> Ronaldo was told that Jj will sub him in against Norway and he will get some minutes.

---> JJ didn't sub him in because he felt Portugal was doing fine without Ronaldo and needed to consolidate defence instead of having a forward

---> Ronaldo walked out of the stadium without applauding fans despite being the captain and Portugal winning the game 2-1 against Norway


Now here's the interesting report

---> JJ went to Ronaldo and expressed that's he's sorry that he was unable to sub him in as he said earlier due to the demand of the game.

Ronaldo then asked JJ to tell this in public ---> admit this in public and apologize in public..idk if this is true but this is the rumor and this is crazy lmao


---> JJ doubled down instead of apologizing.

---> Ronaldo trains separately next day. JJ tells him that he's not going to play against Denmark.

---> Ronaldo skips training and then leaves the camp


Situation in Portugal is so bad rn that commentators on Portugal biggest sports channel said - Ronaldo can't be idolized as Messi because Ronaldo is a detestable person.

Portugal players after their match against Denmark praised JJ and said he's doing great job with the team and performances and they are happy with him.

That guy is a psychopath.

If Portugal wins anything without him he’ll commit suicide.
 
There's no chance this is an actual opinion...right?
Apart from Spain, France and perhaps England they currently possess the best squad.

Germany, Netherlands, Brazil, Argentina, Italy, etc are meh.

If they are indeed happy that he's not with the team anymore it wouldn't surprise me if they started performing better.


Manboy liked a post yesterday stating that his teammates do not respect him the way Argentine players respect Messi.

There's some truth to it.

Few Portugal players said yesterday that players have clarity of roles thanks to JJ and he has been a great help. In short, they are glazing JJ.

JJ also said that we have great individuals quality and they believe in me and my vision. Everyone is behind me and my ideas.


It's clear that Ronaldo doesn't share the same respect from teammates as Messi gets from Argentina players.



However, Ronaldo also doesn't treat the Portugal National team and players like Messi treats Argentina and teammates.

The situation clearly isn't black and white, as can be seen from the way Portugal plays.

With Ronaldo on - the players that are usually creative and forward-moving suddenly get brainfarts and slow down the game. All their WC games were a slough. Ronaldo himslef slows down the game in the final third when he receives balls outside the keeper's area.

Without Ronaldo on - the players suddenly get more active and vertical.

The fact is there is turmoil within the squad and it is not a simple case of Ronaldo vs All.

Another fact is Ronaldo is way past his prime and has to accept a substitution role in this squad and pick his chances.

Another fact is that during his prime he made Portugal relevant - they participated in the WC 3 times before Ronaldo and every time (6) since he came into the team. They won their first trophies with him.

These things can and do coexist when we look at it from a non-subjective viewpoint. I'm not Portuguese so their results and squad climate don't affect me. But it's sad to see the goings on of the past few days.

Honestly speaking, if I was a top player and was forced to play every single match just to help a washed superstar reach his 1000 goal mark i’d be angry too.

If it was just some random league with nothing at stake that would be fine but we’re talking about matches where you represent your country.
