Petrovic was worse than Sanchez when he was here last time but appears to have significantly improved whilst in France. The jury is out whether he'll be able to repeat his form from last season in a much better league.

He'll be loaned to Dortmund on the last day of the window and they will pay less than half his wages and no loan fee.

As a Chelsea supporter, I can assure you we have ZERO starting goalkeepers and Pope is is better than everyone on our books.

Stick to rounders, son 👍

Good midfield, good fullbacks, everything else aside Palmer is meh, with some being patently poor (Sanchez/Jackson). Also, Maresca's tactics produce some of the most boring football, but if he's getting results we can live with it for now.

Oh sorry, was hoping he doesn't join us (Chels) as I don't rate him. He's a big lump, and will bully a few goals each season. But he's got the first touch of Jack the Ripper, and his second touch is always a tackle. We already have that in Jackson, no need to have an identical profile.

Not if Delap is our starting 9 next season.

Worse still, qualifying for CL means they'll double-down on their hairbrained all youth strategy. To them, it's simply confirmation they're on the right path, when actually, it was the jammiest qualification I've seen.

Oh good, they've 'entered' the race. Shortly to be, 'leading' the race, or '...have pulled ahead' in the race.
You people write at a school boy level and should be ashamed of calling it journalism.

I would like to add one point. His slender frame and lack of lower body strength will see him routinely out-muscled for possession in the Prem. The Bundesliga defenders are talented no doubt, but they are no match for the physicality of the English league.

Hi Brian, your website needs content rather than just taglines. 👍

I know he won't do it, nor would most players in his position, but it would be unfortunate if he were to develop a slight injury just before all the meaningless internationals.

Fewer 'newsletters'

If he needs a rest that badly then he can sit out the England games. It's not like international footy is worth the watch anyway.

Nice one, Enzo! Get those excuses in early for next season's regression to the mean. You absolute donut 🤣

It's amazing that FIFA found a leader more bent than Blatter. Absolutely boggles the mind.

Liam Delap and Ben Nelson is who we'll get. I wish I was joking.
comment in response to
post
Delap is precisely why this 'project' is doomed to failure. The Chuckle Brothers consistently believe they're smarter than the rest of the scouting world, whilst simultaneously having made numerous disastrous transfers.
Delap is not better than Jackson, and we need improved play at that position.

Sorry, but Sterling and Mudryk same as my previous reply. Mudryk might not fetch any fee at all and the club may explore contract termination due to breach (drug test). Sterling is chained to the bench at Arse, and rightly so. No one is buying him on £350k/week.
comment in response to
post
No one is buying those players without significant wage subsidy from us, including the fact none will demand a fee that covers their remaining book value.
I'm with you on the idea, but it will be nigh on impossible to complete.

I will agree that resistance movements in Eastern Europe were effective during the war, but still, they didn't change much on the front line, and changed absolutely nothing politically.
Western Europe resistance movements were wholly ineffective, at least according to Churchill and Ike.

PS - Americans routinely cite Ronald Reagan's increased defence spending as the core reason for the dissolution of the Soviet empire. The less astute amongst them believe it was the failure in Afghanistan. And you, who believe it was protests.
None of which are true.

France is the only reason America became free of Britain, and it broke them, causing years of tumult, repression, and mass murder.
The 'American project' was not a success in the eyes of France.

The Warsaw uprising only had a chance if Bagration hadn't been paused. Otherwise, the only thing it achieved was the *furtherment of mass murder for the Warsaw Jews. Vichy only collapsed after Dragoon.
Resistance movements had zero to do with the NAZI collapse outside passing target information.
comment in response to
post
The resistance movements the NAZIs faced were almost entirely eliminated through mass murder. They elicited zero change in Hitler's policies, and in fact, made them more tyrannical.

Nothing to do with people demanding change. Read up.

How much do you think those resistance movements played a role in defeating the NAZIs?

Name all the fascist governments that have been removed from power since 2000.
comment in response to

You don't understand why the Soviet Union dissolved. I'll give you a hint: It had nothing to do with regional protest movements, Afghanistan, or American defence spending.
comment in response to
post
All true. The real question is whether Americans understand bringing AR-15s to a drone fight is a losing proposition. Judging by their voting behaviour, one would guess that's a 'No'.

Suggest you read a bit more of my post history. Perhaps you'll learn a thing or two 👍

No. I'm here to help people understand they're too late to save America. It's over. Just like it was over in 2000 when Putin 'won' the elections in Russia. Just like it was over in 2010 when Orbán 'won' in Hungary. Just like it was over in 2014 when Erdogan 'won' in Türkiye.

Yes, research all those WW2 resistance groups, especially those in the Balkans, Greece, Belorussia.
Let me know what you find 👍👍

Oh you gave an inch a long, long time ago and it’s now well beyond a mile.

Also, spouses or family members’ actions can result in expulsion or disappearance. So it’s not even safe if the green card holder in question isn’t the one protesting.
comment in response to

How’s ‘resistance’ working out for Russians, Belarusians, Georgians, Hungarians, Serbs, or Turks?
No, you’re not better than them, and yes, you allowed the same fascist takeover and now it’s too late.

Blue TX won’t happen in your or your grandchildren’s lifetime. Perhaps start off reading about Gerrymandering and work your way up from there 👍

This has nothing to with why Southerners hate the North. Try 150+ of Stab in the Back propaganda and you’ll begin to understand.
And yes, coastal states should let the red states rot as they are currently only propped up by blue states taxes.

Agreed. Georgian Dream is starting to feel the pressure. Same with Maduro, Orban, Vucic, Erdogan, Putin, the list is endless.
You can tell they’re all about to crack soon 👍

No. You have two choices, one real, one fantasy. The real option is to get out whilst you still can, as there will come a time when you cannot. The fantasy option is mass industrial action for an extended period.
Anything else is just wishful thinking.
comment in response to

Do you prefer life in prison, or heinous death? Because those are the options for protesting in Authoritarian countries like Türkiye, Russia, and America.
comment in response to
post
Fair enough. You make a good point. Just remember you're bringing an AR-15 to a drone fight. That is unless you want to go full Syrian Spring and just get mown down in the tens of thousands by 'protesting' without weapons.

It was over long before they did anything.

That was the before times. Name a protest movement that has toppled a dictatorship in the last 20 years? There is only one, and they are still engaged in said uprising more than 10 years later.

Wait. You don't believe Baltic protests in '89 played a role in the collapse of the Soviet Union?

Brilliant idea. Take to the streets just to be infiltrated by Proud Boys, et al, who will set fires and cause property damage thus giving Trump the excuse to declare martial law.
