Lol imagine calling a team with AD and Lebron an underdog. You guys should have some shame please

What type of GOAT the underdog against Ja Morant grin

Pick a struggle
You know hate when you see one. lol

But then you just emphasised James greatness. LeBron appreciates it.

It will be hard to. They won because they jumped on the Grizz early. But its a home game, so maybe they can pull off a close game 4
And they pulled it off.

Lakers were looking at defeat until the Russell Run with his back to back 3s and then AD's (he was anonymous until that point) block on Ja with 0.8 secs to go.

OT was already a formality when the master of all, LeBron James took over. Those blocks, rejects and putting his 39 year old frame on the line for his team. Talk of experience and craft of the game. LeBron is GOATED!

Special mention to Austin Reaves. He got them through 1st and 2nd quarters.

Lakers still remain the underdogs and hopefully AD will come alive once again.

And I'm also sensing we would see Giannis for Game 4 against Heat?
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by FBS: 4:07am On Apr 24, 2023
I need to study and implement the full court, energy sapping press that the Cavs gave Knicks in Game 3 in my training sessions.

They may likely not survive the series but that was mightily impressive to watch.
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by FBS: 4:01am On Apr 24, 2023
imo Lakers efficient and fast start got them past Grizziles in game 3.

And Yes, LeBron is not human. How is he able to play like that at almost 40! How?

Russell also found his mojo.

Can they replicate same in Game 4?

Ryan Reynolds and Rob really ran the club well..can't say same for our useless boehly
Absolutely. A Welsh friend (who no even sabi football sef) introduced me to the club and I followed the whole thing and how they hired people to do specific jobs. Their tasks were mainly to use their clouts and popularity to "grow" the club.

Boli just came in with his oversabi mentality, consulted no one, making one disastrous decision after another.
And when he started saying stuff like "EPL should play East side vs West side, we would win Real by 3 goals" - it was obvious that the man no know wetin him dey talk.

Anyways, ain't nada we can do about this season, next season is the focus now.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by FBS:
AND YES! WREXHAM moving up the food chain with a National League record of 110 points!. cool

Welcome to Wrexham, Welcome to League Two.

This is what you could call a success story and it seems both Ryan and Rob have gone about this the right way by allowing those who understand the game, run the game.

Say you be owner no mean say you go just dey make irrational decisions anyhow. pfff!

Special mention to Paul Mullin. There is no Wrexham without a Paul Mullin goal, he was brought in specifically for that - to score goals and he delivered instanta - 38 League goals! What a player.

All his decisions the season are the worse decisions I have ever seen in football history.
Terrible decisions.
Season is now effectively over but we look forward to next season.

When I told you guys early on that Boli was one of the major problems, y'all thought I was joking.

"Trust the process, trust the process". What process?

Man even had the balls to say we would win 3 - 0 against Real Madrid. That's an insult to every Chelsea supporter.

Why fans never turn on this guy I never know? Ok, I think some actually did.

Football no be like some american sports where you create unnecessary drama by taking interviews during half time, pausing a game for some more dramas and all that nonsense. Football is passion, it's intelligence, it's 99% mental.

This man is taking us to where we no know and unless someone within his crew place a check on him, it's gonna be a long long ride.

A part of Pep is what Barcelona is what is still looking for and one way or the other, we have not moved on. Nonetheless, his legacy is still one that we continue to build on.
Legacy? Which one please? Is it the style of football or type of players?
If the club is looking for something, that means it is missing, so what foundation are we talking about here gangan?

In many areas and countries, junior players aged 9-13 typically have two to three training sessions per week. These sessions are usually focused on developing the fundamental skills of the game, such as dribbling, passing, shooting, and ball control. Coaches may also introduce tactical concepts and strategies, but the emphasis is generally on individual skill development.


Junior players may have one or two games per week, depending on the league or competition they are participating in. The size of the pitch and goal, as well as the number of players on each side, can vary depending on the age group and the league or competition. For example, in some areas, 7v7 games are common for players in the under-11 age group, while 9v9 games are more common for players in the under-13 age group.

It's generally preferred that junior players are trained by qualified licensed coaches. These coaches are often trained and certified by their country's football association, and have undergone specific training in coaching young players. They are equipped with the knowledge and skills to design training sessions that are age-appropriate, safe, and effective in developing the players' skills.

While it's important for junior players to develop the technical and tactical skills needed to play the game, it's also important to allow them to explore and develop their instincts. Good coaches will balance structured training sessions with opportunities for players to express themselves and make decisions on the field.

Junior players may be required to pay fees to participate in club or league activities. Some clubs may offer scholarships or subsidies to players who demonstrate financial need, but this varies depending on the club.

The pathway from junior to senior football can vary depending on the country and the level of competition. In general, junior players who demonstrate exceptional skill and potential may be scouted by professional clubs and offered a place in their youth academy. From there, they may progress to the senior team if they continue to develop their skills and perform well. However, the majority of junior players will likely continue to play at the amateur or semi-professional level as they get older.
Thanks chairman. I appreciate your response but I'm looking for specifics like in UK or Nigeria for instance they pay X amount, train X amount of times, Play for X minutes.. etc...Know what I mean?

nihilistjnr:
My son currently trains indoors on Friday nights.

A couple of the kids there play for local teams as well, and train once or twice a week with their teams which are usually 7 aside

One girl here is in the academy for a League 1 team close by, and trains twice a week with them, twice a week with her football team, and every Friday with my son's group.

The training with the league 1 team is funded by the club, so as long as your child is scouted and brought in, you only have to pay for boots/shinpad and transport.

I pay £30 a month for my son's coaching. One to one coach around here sometimes goes up to £50 a session depending on the coach. The guy that takes my son's group session is only a sports science student, so he charges £15 per session (for 45 minutes)

This is all U-10 btw.

One of the kids that trains here at u-14 recently got signed by Man City for what I hear is around 200k. I think it was paid to the parents and some other shenanigans as they're not supposed pay transfer for kids.

I will take a picture at training later this evening to give you a sense of how it plays out here.
Brilliant stuff boss. Thanks for the specifics and would appreciate if you are able to share the pictures. This is part of what I am looking for.

Our "TD" here is adamant that kids u9 - u11 in the local academy should train 3 times per week (including public and school holidays) and then a game on weekends and it is not cheap. The parents foot the bill all the way for everything. We are talking thousands of dollars.
I've had parents come to me complaining that there kids no longer want to play football, drop out completely because the training sessions are either boring or repetitive and leaves no time for them to take part in other recreational activities.

A kid recently dropped out to focus on dancing and singing. I am not kidding.

I have watched some of the trainings and it seems they are turning them into robots, dulling their instincts.
E.g., They play from the back even when it is obvious they are struggling, imo their instincts should take over and try something different but nah, they keep doing the same thing over and over again.

My opinion is that kids of this age should train no more than twice per week plus a game and also develop their instinctive part of the game. The training sessions should be structured in such as way that they are able to play as a team and at the same time develop individually. A fun filled scenario where the kids want more.

What I am seeing at the moment is just some robotic display and I wanted to know how it is done is other countries, say, in Europe to make some comparisons. Thanks

Does Barca or Bayern still play Pep football (whatever that is) and do you think they will be playing like this when he leaves City?

I really need you to explain the "foundation" that you are talking about. Coaches are employed for project/s and you are supposed to know this.
