So we decided to take them on a cool vacation in line with their interests. My kiddos are really into Captain America, Iron Patriot, GI Joes, and all other American heroes. We decided to take them to see the most patriotic of all.

Average attendance, capacity, utilization

Thanks. Are you looking forward to the German election this year? How do you feel about Dutch election, doesn't that usually have the same type of outcome as the German election in terms of left/right/centrist leaders elected?

 

[Nowhere Fast]

Turned Valencia to a world class fullback. Promoted Rashford from the youth system and made him a complete player. After a slow start Mikhi has become an elite player. Herrera a goat dmf lets face it, Jose bless. Also Bailly, Zlatan and Pogba finally came to THE LEAGUE and all 3 have been really good.

LVGenius promoted RashGod you bozo!

Never forget.

I'm not looking forward since it's either Merkel winning or some complete leftist populist scum winning.

I'll vote for Merkel lol

Netherlands voted some "right-liberal" guy (yeah that is possible in Europe lol). Wilders is a can so it's no surprise that he lost.

 

[blokeybloke]

Herrera, Jones, Valencia, Rojo, off the top of my head, have all improved on last seasons form.

Four defensive minded players

Jones was injured & barely played
Valencia was just as good under LvG & didnt have Zlatan to cross to
Rojo is reckless & lucky not to have had 2 cast iron red cards



Smalling, Mata, Martial, Rashford, Blind all played better under LvG

Only because Jose told him to. Remember they were at Barca together and are friends!

Wake up @Tules

Only because he got rid of RVP, Wellbeck, Hernandez, Nani, AdM and Falcao without replacing them!

Trump/Merkel interaction was interesting. Isn't your guy Trump a populist? Right-liberal WTF, is that like socially liberally/fiscally conservative combo?

Yurope is strange.

De Boner, Toure, Silva midfield three....this could get interesting.

I sided with Trump because of Hillary and the ridiculous media mostly, plus immigration. And of course Trump is a populist, many politicians are. It's just that only conservatives get called "populists" in the media even though everyone else does the same shit, especially that EU piece of shit Martin Schulz.

I've literally never heard of Martin Schulz.

LvG turned Valencia into a decent right back, not Jose.

Rashford's regressed under Jose.

Took 6mths to figure out where to play Mhiki. Misusing Pogba.

Shaw
Martial ........

Moving the goalposts, eh?


Smalling has been crap for a few years now.
Mata has been at least as good this season as last year.
Martial was overplayed last year, because LvG decimated his forward options. He was okay, but didn't srt the world alight.
Rashford played for 3 months last season. Only played at all because (see above).
Valencia played second fiddle to Darmian for most of last season!!!!!!
Blind was decent last season, been decent this season.

 

[Deffid]

I've literally never heard of Martin Schulz.

Has no meaningful education, career politician, did shady shit in the EU for like a decade (mostly the total opposite of what he claims to stand for), uses fake stats in speeches, ridiculous / insane policies in his program etc.

But he is a lefty so anything goes.

Shaw

Minutes at RB last season:

Darmian: 1924
Valencia: 857



Shaw played sparingly (and averagely) in his fist season. Missed 90% of his second season.

Martial was better last season, but let's not pretend he set the world on fire.
