  1. Bring in Cardona and have him flog him 3 matches in a row.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Pushing for Europe<<<<Losing 3-1 to Crystal Palace.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. Or Cody again for Roman.
  10. The limit does not exist. "Did I do okay, did you enjoy yourself, I'm sorry im not enough, I'm going to improve" ect ect is all I can imagine from Brian, stage 12 clinger.
  11. The further up the field you go the more widely ignored howlers are. Besides something as horrid as a 'Sterling scoop' when a striker fucks up a walk in, think of the trillion times strikers should do way better in 1 on 1s or with free headers or with a cut back they fucked up. Commentator notes it, might get a replay, then never gets mentioned again. Midfielders get away with horrid giveaways or when caught on the ball. It's defenders and especially goalkeepers who's mistakes get remembered.
  12. Australia is all this. Super small minded population too. Weather and geography is nicer here, but you have culture and history and we barely do (and ignore what we do have). I hate the Americanization of the nation, Sydney, the drinking, gambling and drugs culture here (it's the worst in the world)
  13. 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.
