Viva la FCB

Crazy second half with Wolfsburg. Picking up right where we left off with Upa and Kim mistakes to make it a close match. Allot of positives to take overall though. Gnabry looks reinvigorated and carried on with his pre season form. In the first half Olise looked great, definitely faded in the second but he had created allot of our chances. Boey looked strong in attack and created Musiala's goal basically on his own, on the flipside probably a bit careless to give away the penalty as soft as it was he just shouldnt have been in that position not that it was all on him though. With the way Kim and Upa still continue to have problems I think we need to see Palhinha insulate them and Pavlovic isnt quite going to work.

I am 13th. I think Ive peaked.

I dont even know how I ended up getting it to work but I did, also still pretty sure I have like 5 registered emails/accounts now too....

Yeah I agree. Im not big on apps for everything. Also i do most of my forming and form games while getting paid...

Just look above yourself after matchday 1

Yeah hes got that in him. I dont think we would have looked to move him if we didnt have so many options on the flanks, we did also sign him on the free I suppose. The main reason I wasnt really arsed one way or another about him was the injuries, I would say in the couple seasons without looking it up he wasnt available for more then like 30-40% of matches. You've got a couple of good ones anyways as much as it pains me to say and the prices too where more then reasonable.

Appreciate the backstory! As I was born in the 80's Its been basically Kahn and Neuer for me to watch.

Im not old enough to have watched most of those, what are your thoughts?

Greatest German keeper of all time? interesting debate somewhat... I know we've had the convo about Bayern keeper before and I guess this one isnt much different really

Pile it on baby.

1-0 Müller on the rebound but that was all Kimmich, what a first take and run, great ball from Stanisic. And that was a quick brace for Müller. One ball in from Kim and Gnabry is sent through with a pass accross for Müller to tap home.

Great to have some matches back. I like the lineup to start, resting the players that have recently joined etc. Goretzka dropped entirely was the one talking point making the rounds.

There was a rumour this was going to happen, interesting to see how this plays out. Hes shown 0 interest in leaving.

His interviews at the Olympics where much the same from the clips I saw Im stoked though otherwise now.

I think you've done well on both. De Ligt was a fan favourite in his fairly short time, If you got him for anywhere around the rumoured €50m in todays day and age its a steal. He was our best pure defender.

Yep. We primarily deployed him on the right but when Davies was injured he played plenty on the left and didnt look out of place. Maz is a solid player but seemingly often injured.

No Hard Feelings - 7/10 I figured it would be worth a laugh and it was probably funnier then I expected. Bonus Jennifer Lawrence topless beach scene that was hilarious.

Been watching season 2 of Tokyo Vice. So far really good. Unfortunately I did read ahead of time when the second season was released fairly early on they announced it was cancelled before a third season was filmed. Its a shame as its actually fairly good, I guess it just wasnt hitting the views.

As Ruck says. Reports are quite high on him though, I did catch a bit of the friendly he definitely looks pretty raw still. The plan would be for him to keep playing and progressing and then look to make the first team or loan in probably something like 2-3 years.

Both officially done.
