Everyone thinks the rankings are claiming to be a current super accurate representation of all teams. It’s not. When you use them as a relative gauge and think in terms if +/- 5 spots accuracy, they are much better. Is Croatia actually, exactly #10 in the world? Probably not. But are they between 5 and 15? Absolutely. They are better if you think in terms of a range.

Yes. I watch fewer games as a neutral bc I am too frustrated by VAR. I now only watch Arsenal and maybe another game that has a big affect on the top 4. I’d watch more if I wasn’t frustrated with the league so much.

I had forgotten about Marquinhos. Hopefully we find a better place than Nantes for him.

One way of viewing history is looking at a club’s impact on the top division. Have they affected the title races in addition to cup challenges.

City haven’t had much influence before 2000 on the top league. They don’t have to win trophies, just be a part of the chase for them.

It’s not history in the traditional sense, but it’s closer to what people are referring to when they say that.

Why are we playing off line so far on 3rd down?

How the fuck did we draw these bums.

Definitely a bit low on his valuation. I doubt we’d let him go for anything under 100m. No way he’s going at 60m.

Good news is that Partey won’t miss much time at AFCON bc this team won’t make any kind of run.
