Bring in Cardona and have him flog him 3 matches in a row.

Book heel Jinder to beat Logan Paul and do an intentionally ironic CM punk antihero story arc where he defends the belt against people the fans dislike, heel or face, and goes off on wrestlers in an honest way.

Say what we will about Jinder being a mid wrestler, and having a very random title run that no one asked for, his work the last 2 weeks has been brilliant. Did the job for the rock perfectly, then fired up the cokehead.

You're entirely respectable, but I'd say being able to outperform Palace is a stepping stone towards European football. Of course, Brentford also need to navigate the smaller, more basic stepping stone of not losing 5 in a row.

Pushing for Europe<<<<Losing 3-1 to Crystal Palace.

He is at his peak, his contract expires in a year, he has just missed a shite load of action, you say he's a '20+ goal a year striker' when he scored 20 goals once, in a system built for him. I think he's worth a punt for a team like Spurs where Richarlison is a dogshit cunt and I would play my nan ahead of him. But he's not worth 100 mil, 80 mil or 70. Take the 50 odd, or lose him for nothing in a year.

The game has changed so much in the past decade. I used to bemoan that Barton should have had more game time for England as he was the only fucking English midfielder at the time bar Lampard (who played further forward) who could steal into small spaces and move the ball sharply and accurately. Absolute donkeys like Parker, Barry younger Milner ect wouldn't get a game at Aston Villa these days. Here's one underrated trait for each position in the modern game Goalkeepers. Height. Has fallen out of favor for passing and athleticism, but has led to a few flappers being exposed every now and then for big teams. Centerback. Communication. Marshalling that passing from the back by calling the movement of passing options from off the ball. Wingbacks. Shooting. The ability to overlap and have a real shot on you, elevates mediocre players like Chilwell. Center mid. Physicality. I'm not saying go back to donkeys but the ability to win balls, headers and shove off would be tacklers is still a way to be. I much prefer a Rodri to a twink with the same skill set. Striker. Passing. Look at Kane, Lewandoski, Haaland even. Sets them apart, brings in players around them and keeps attacks alive from awkward spots. Winger. I think finishing and heading is a good shout from brydog millionaire. Sterling has shown us how much of a liability bad finishing can make you when you're at the back post again and again and there are whole compilations of you hitting air instead of the net.

The game has left them behind.

If a commentator or pundit is accomplished enough to do the job on their merits I don't care their age, race, gender or favorite ice cream.

Again, what AEW needs is someone to tell people no. Ibushi when he won the G1 wrestled 9 distinctly different matches, all were at least good, some great, none involved any nonsense, bicycles or stupidity. It makes me sad. Again, look at black and gold NXT. The undisputed era were so much better than the sum of their parts. Look at them now. Fuck me. "I'm not going to engage you even on a conversational level because you don't share my opinion and i'm fearful of your ability to deconstruct the situation and I don't like the pieces" You can like whatever you like my guy. I like the early 2000s doom movie, despite the fact that it's shit, it still gives me kicks. But that doesn't mean the things you like are objectively good.

What do you mean by 'wrestling with an edge'? NJPW is far more physical and less flippy bullshit than AEW. Old black and gold NXT was as close to perfect as wrestling ever got for me imo. Storylines that made sense, in ring action that was athletic and hard hitting by a bunch of wrestlers who are mostly in AEW now, but with WWE there to tell them to keep their heads pulled in, and limit the indulgent BS AEW is famous for. Fuck they need writers, and someone to tell the wrestlers NO.

In america it's more important to motivate, because you don't have to vote. Sure, there will be some voters who donkey vote, or leave the page blank, but not enough to shift an election.
