So Turks move to Germany and Turkey gets people from?

 

[Ignicious]

It's like your leaders are over-compensating for WW2 or summat.
Germany and Britain has too much people living there already.
Importing "less capable" humans in hordes won't fix anything.

Worst thing is that for someone it is crazy and unacceptable to fathom that rightwing parties are gaining more traction around Europe

What's the fucking story here??

United scraped by then last night, first half was absolutely atrocious. Showed some grit and chuffed for Hojlund. I get that Amorim rotates and he definitely needs to, I'm alright with that, but surely he can see now that Zirkzee and Rashford have no place in this team beyond this season. Both have to be sold in the summer and replaced. It won't happen before then, so fair enough they have to chip in with 50mins of not doing anything every other game until then.

Fucking Onana is on the downslide again too it seems, purple patch over.....

Some mouth breather apparently racially abused KW after his poor showing in mid week.

Onana is actually fairly decent, imo. Just can’t keep out of his own way. You can’t be making 5-6 howlers a year, and expect to remain.

Hearing Amorim and the board have basically said everyone bar about 7 players are available for transfer.

Truth be told, this as much to do with quality as opposed to fitting a system.

With the funky new system, they really need to go all in for a minimum 3-4 years, otherwise back to square one (or more accurately -2) come summer 2026.

Man City worsen to 1-2-7 in their last ten.

Arsenal extend their unbeaten run to seven. Crystal Palace home and away in three days coming up soon.

And congratulations to all VfB Stuttgart supporters on a dominant display against Young Boys! Not the strongest competition but still nice to score five.

English teams are currently first, third and fifth in the CL table. VfB are one point below the play-off zone, at 26th.

Interestingly Celtic are also in the play-off zone at the moment.

Spurs extend their winless run to five.

Man United, despite mediocrity in the PL, are strong in Europe, unbeaten this year and having won three in a row.

Rangers also currently have a qualifying place in the EL.

Chelsea are wrecking the ECL like a bull in a china shop: top of the table, five wins out of wine and a GD of +17.

Hearts have a play-off spot but I don't think they'll make it.

Whitby are playing away on Boxing Day and at home on New Year's Day.

Imagine 5 years ago thinking you had Rashford, Martial Pogba and Greenwood (+Sancho) for the next decade, and them all basically becoming dead food in 3 years.


Greenwood is apparently the best player in France right now. Urgggh. United gonna get pelters even though they did the right thing.

Wonder where he’ll be playing in 2 years.

City to bounce back on Sunday.

United have been shite in Europe against really limited opposition. Results have been underwhelming, performances worse. We’d have struggled to qualify in the CL group, imo.

Never heard that word in my life, and I’m the most well read member of this thread (having read 7 books (6 of which were VIZ compendiums)).

England to play Serbia, Latvia, Andorra and Albania in WC qualifiers.

Oh joy.

I believe top 4 qualify automatically. 5th go into playoff.

Highest standard in the game.

Kane to add 14 to his international tally.
