🚨 PSG sporting director Luis Campos is in advanced talks with José Mourinho's agent!

The Portuguese manager is only interested in two clubs: PSG and Real Madrid.

Re Popi: One thing I can say is this, he does have some valid points. Football is not static and just because inverted wingers are "popular" now does not mean that works for every single player. Just because coaches use them that way does not mean it has to be followed rigidly. It ain't science.

Every player is different, particularly wingers. You mould your team and players to get the best out of them.

Just my 2 cents.

Popi's point is a redundant one. Popi's point seems to suggest that even managers don't know or have not assessed this possibility.

Football is not static. True. But unless you are throwing the kitchen sink at everything, looking for a last minute goal, you are not going to line up with a 4-4-2 for instance in the PL, because you believe football is not static. You will get annihilated in midfield. There are several reasons why this evolution is being adopted - the underlying reason of all being ironically, that actually, 'football is not static'. Don't just reduce football to cross and nod, make your wingers do more.

As a matter of fact, we only explored examples in attacking posture and consequential increase in opportunities in the defence of the point. There also several advantages in defensive posture, as to why managers set up with inverted forwards, instead of traditional wingers.

In my opinion, Popi seems to be revising his stance on this matter. For months, he's constantly brought isolated examples of a goal created from the strong foot of a player as proof of this point. He's not mentioned until yesterday that he only refers to 'some forwards and not all' or isolated events.

So what's the deal? Do we set up with full-on traditional wingers for cross and nod football (abandoning all other advantages) or are we asking for isolated portions within the game where the wingers are switched, to create a different impact that can result in goal? Which is it? As it cannot be both.

In any case, for Popi's point to hold water, we will first have to understand which players within our team he considers are not inverted forwards/wingers to have a debate. As far as I can see, we have none.

So....as I said. Popi's point is redundant.


By the way Popi, not trying to refer to you indirectly. Just not had the time to reply to your post and FBS's.

According to AS, Atlético Madrid aren’t optimistic of receiving convincing offers for Joao Felix due to his recent displays. They are clearly annoyed how his loan move to Chelsea has gone so far. Félix is expected to leave Chelsea after this season.

{Sport Witness}
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Amoto94(m): 10:35am On May 09, 2023
Pat Nevin: “The goal by Joao Felix was an overdue reward for him being among the liveliest and probably the most creative-looking player this season at the club. His third league goal brings his Chelsea ratio close to his career average of one goal in roughly every four appearances, not bad at all for that position. Certainly, he has always wanted to get on the ball and try to make things happen.”
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Amoto94(m): 10:36am On May 09, 2023
Pat Nevin on Noni Madueke: “It wasn’t just his goal but his all-round positive attitude that caught everyone’s attention. The bravery to want the ball, all the time and the willingness to take those chances and at least try to beat his man, was an incredible breath of fresh air."

I was reminiscing about European football in the early to mid 2000's with an older friend the other day and a debate came up. It was on how he claimed Henry was robbed of a Ballon d'or in those years. I was of the opinion that while Henry was very good, he wasn't the best. I actually said Shevchenko was a better striker and that Eto'o was on the same level. But my guy no wan gree.

Now it's been years and our memories of these players might have been blunted by time, but I'm really interested in what some of the oldies here have to say about this. Ibime, nateevs, FBS, patrickmuf, and also Roland17, who supports both Arsenal and Milan, abeg make una chook mouth for this matter. Every one and anyone's contribution is welcome, BTW.

Shevchenko was never in the picture for best player in the world. Balon d'Or was a B rate award then for the likes of Shevchenko, Nedved and Owen who couldn't make the list for FIFA WPOTY

FIFA WPOTY was the premium award and was contested by the elites. Henry finished 2nd to Zidane and Ronaldinho in 2003 and 2004 and was quite likely robbed in both of those years. He just didn't have the signature win (UCL, Euros) in those years to solidify his claim, mind you neither did Zidane or Ronaldinho so he was likely robbed.
