Story! Seen ehn, even a broken clock is correct twice everyday.

He was eventually going to win the thing one day after well over a decade of managing top top teams and failing. πŸ˜‚

Seeing how PSG and Chelsea have managed to implode even with similar finances available has made me reassess and agree he is a great manager and not the false prophet I used to think he was.

Our man, Pep, just won his third UCl and the second treble with two different teams (being the first manager to achieve this).

Meanwhile their own man is still dinning with unknown teams like cska Sofia, Balkani, Dinamo Tirana in the third tier of Euro club competition, the Uefa Europa conference league.

Hahaha

Not sure what you mean by asking me to be substantive and objective. What did I say that wasn't? What evidence of what do you want from me? Lol

Both Sancho and Bellingham were not consistent and exceptional performers before being signed by
Dortmund. were they?

They were just youth prospects with high potential.
There are dozens of players so regarded at any one time. And by the way that is same group of players you talk down on with statements like they haven't played mens football; talents at youth level is at best indicative etc etc. No? cheesy

It is acknowledged everywhere that Dortmund's scouting at youth level is very good and they have now seemingly built their business model on it.

Substansive essentially means to be anchored βš“ on established FACTS and TRUTH.

At 14 Jude Billingham played with the U18 at age 15 he played with the reserve team with consistent oustanding performance. He was dominating men .

At age 16 and 38 days Jude played his first professional first team game for Birmingham city in EFL cup. He was given the MOTM award at this stage he was the youngest ever play to play for Birmingham city.

At age 16 +(56 days) he had his first game in the Championship in August 2019. He was consistently continuously oustanding and by November he was given EFL Young Player of the Month. At the end of the season 2019/20 being still 16 years old he had played 41 games in the Championship with multiple never ending accolades. At the EFL Awards, he was named both Championship Apprentice of the Year and EFL Young Player of the Season. This is your spurious definition of a mere "youth prospect with high potential"


2020/21 after being courted by numerous top clubs including Manchester United he chose Borussia Dortmund. On his first game at age 17 (77 days) September 2020, he scored another outstanding performance. He was B. Dortmund youngest ever goal scorer in the Bundisliga by end of the month he given the accolade, Bundesliga Rookie of the Month for September. This is your misguided definition of what you call ,"youth prospect with high potential"

Jadon Sancho was already on the first team lost at 17 in Manchester city he was already proven established but denied opportunity. Then Borussia Dortmund gave him opportunity the rest is history.

Birmingham retired Jude Bellingham's no 22 shirt and he was just 19.

Actually he was 17 and sombody is calling him a mere youth prospect with potential.

In some regards he achieved what many players had not achieved in one season as a 16 year old.

He was already endorsed by Adidas at age 12/13.

Please when is samson tijani going to be fit again.
Of all our midfielders under 23 he seems the only one with top flight football experience.
He has played in europe the austrian league and was on the verge of breaking into re bull salzburg first team when he was injured.
If he stays injury free he is the Victor isimhen of our midfield. He has been rated by European teams since he was 16.
Can remember clubs fighting for him.
He may be ready for superbeagles now.
I have been monitoring his progress

Rubbish. Playing with the reserves at 15 years old is not as rare as you make it sound. If you are as close to the academies in the English game as you claim to be you will know this.

Again, several players have made their debut at 16 even in the Premier League and had rave reviews just like Bellingham. Of course it was great for Bellingham to also have been in your words 'dominating men' although in 'division 2' reserve games. grin

For example at 16/17 years old midfielders like Jack Wilshere, Josh McEachran were not only playing with and dominating men in the Premier League and Champions League. Had Chelsea or Arsenal sold them on at that point they would have probably gone for more money than Bellingham went for... Sadly Arsenal and Chelsea don't get that excited at talented youth prospects to retire a squad number in their honour if they do move on.

You say Sancho was 'established' at Manchester City!? Hahahahaha funny guy, he was so established he didn't kick a ball for the first team.

In any case have we now lowered the bar about being consistently exceptional and outstanding to simply being 'established'. Do tell us.

I think you are consistent and exceptional in your attempts to prove to the unprovable. Not with me fam, the results won't be outstanding cheesy

Not even sure what you're arguing about to be fair.

Rodri also merited his place massively.

In terms of Ball Recoveries/Posession recovery/initiation, he came the closest to Cluade Makelele of Chelsea back in 2007/08 UCL.

Your quote below says he won't find a club in league two.

So which leagues in the world do you equate to league two so when he leaves for those leagues, we won't celebrate the move.


Difficult question ❓

Not all fourth tier leagues are the same, some are near amateurs or semi pro. What would be the unit of measurement across Europe. Thats a tall order.

But my reference was to Nwakali not being good enough for EFL League two, tongue in cheek. But being honest he would struggle in that league.

If they can get their transfer policy right, sign the right players and truly sign up Nagelsmann, then yep, PSG could be serious UCL title contenders next season.

They already bagged Manuel Ugarte, a Solid yet technical CDM. But they need more than just signing players other big clubs go for. They need to do so with a playing strategy in mind.

Mbappe could yet do something with PSG if only they get it right on their player signing policy/strategies.

true. It's high time they realized that the galatico model won't work for them. they should allow the coach sign who he wants rather than all these statement signings in the front while the midfield is not better than Brentford's midfield
