So many positives for us though - Bazunu looks a decent keeper good penalty save but need 3 points on Saturday or lastnyt was pointless

Ronaldo had his penalty saved but didn't let that affect him and still went on to score two goals in the late stages of the game and break the goalscoring record in the process, that just sums Ronaldo up but of course "he's not the same player that he was 10 years ago"
 , I can't see anyone else winning the golden boot this season.

He rarely scores from outside the box anymore. I don't think anyone is denying that he is not a great player, as he clearly is, but he's also not the same Ronaldo of 10 years ago. There's a reason why his transfer to Juventus is regarded as a disaster. |

I think the fact his stint timed with Pirlo being the manager didn't help. Under any elite coach Juve would have comfortably won (or at least challenged Inter) for the Scudetto.

Most surprising results 9/1:
Central African Republic grabbing a 1-1 at home versus Cape Verde Islands. I had high hopes for a possible resurgent Cabo Verde run, but it's early still. Libya beating an upstart Gabon side, but it was the first quality match Libya played in their home country in years. Kazakhstan and Ukraine trading extra-time goals in the second half to end up at 2-2 in Nur-Sultan. France being held 1-1 at home versus a Bosnian side that hasn't shown much quality in recent times. A goal at the last possible second by Montenegro's Radunovic meant they had grabbed a key point Istanbul and after the Norway/Netherlands 1-1 draw in Oslo, the top four teams are within 1 point of each other after 4 matches in Group G!

Under any elite coach Juve would have comfortably won (or at least challenged Inter) for the Scudetto. Pirlo clearly didn't help, but he was signed to win Juventus the Champions League and they became a worse team because of it. It's not like they went out to PSG/Liverpool/City at any occasion either. The tactics Juventus played are all around Ronaldo, just like Portugal. For him to have as many shots as he does, he needs the supply. So that means Greenwood/Rashford/Sancho change from taking a lot of shots, to remembering to go out wide & supply a cross and cut inside and shoot. Like I've said before he will score a bucketload against the dross teams, but the team has to be set up to supply him as he's not going to link play or press like Ibrahimovic did for example. |

A real shocker, Oman scores in the 88th minute to beat Japan in the first match of the 3rd round in Asia. It should be noted, this match was played in United Arab Emirates despite being counted as a Japan home match.

QUOTE(steve201 @ Sep 2 2021, 08:23 PM) Did he not win serie A in his first year? Nope he was only there for 1 season! Sarri won it with Juve the year prior. He did win 2 cups tbf, but also they flopped in the CL which like with PSG is the one the board really cared about after 8 consecutive Scudettos.

Surprising results on 9/7:
Burkina Faso, granted it was at home, but halting Algeria's hot streak with a draw. (1-1) Libya continues on a possible new-found resurgence by winning at Angola, who are no slouch. (1-0) The magnitude in which Netherlands beat down Turkey at home. (6-1) Montenegro, who have shown flashes lately, being held at home by Latvia of all nations. (0-0) Denmark putting a pause on any Israeli excitement after their Austria result. (5-0) Bosnia-Herzegovina only getting a point at home versus Kazakhstan after a draw in France. (2-2) Scotland gets a huge win on the road in Austria, who are left picking up the pieces after their last two matches. (1-0) This post has been edited by DJHazey: 8th September 2021, 12:34 PM |

Wembley will host the revived 'Finalissima' match between European champions Italy and Copa America winners Argentina on 1 June.
European football's governing body Uefa and South American counterparts Conmebol agreed last year to play three editions of the intercontinental match. London was confirmed as the host city in December and Uefa now says the national stadium will be the venue. It will be the first time the fixture has been played since 1993. |

Ivan Toney has been called up to the England squad after a good start to the season. Jadon Sancho didn't get picked, same goes for James Maddison who never seems to get picked by Gareth Southgate for some reason. Harry Maguire has been rewarded for sitting on the bench at Man United by getting called up for the England squad.

I was wondering if I could run a contest for the World Cup that is a variation of the one where one team gets randomly selected for each person. In that scenario, a group of people just automatically gets killed on selection day if they end up with Cameroon, or Qatar, or Tunisia for example. They have no chance.
So instead I would split the 32 teams into four pots of 8 teams each. Rank them all simply by last FIFA Rankings, so 1-8 is Pot A, 9-16 is Pot B, 17-24 is Pot C, and 25-32 is Pot D. Each participant gets one team from each Pot, so yes there can be multiple people with the same team, which is fine, because everyone is bound to have a different set of teams. With everyone having a team from each pot, the odds are more even on who will do best. Until all 8 have been drawn from each pot, it does not get reset and you can't have two teams from the same actual World Cup group so that would be a re-draw. (Otherwise, you'd have two of your teams face each other which is no good) Random Number Generator would be used for drawing the order for participants to gets their teams drawn, plus used to draw the teams themselves. We can use a similar point system to what was used when everyone had one team except this time they'll have a group of teams to root for and everyone will have at least one true contender. Does this sound okay, too confusing? Feedback is welcome. I would make a thread and draw sometime in early November. |

Copa America 2024 will be hosted by the U.S. like 2016. It will have all 10 South American nations as well as the Top 6 CONCACAF based on the latest CONCACAF Nations League.
