Manchester United, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain are the three front-runners for Darwin Nunez's signature. Benfica are open to a sale, with his price anticipated to be around €70 million.

that is his opinion based on politics. is Russia in Europe or Asia? just like Turkey, they fall on both so they can choose where they want to participate.

this has to do with power and the influence Turkey will have in the EU given how many seats they will secure because of their size and population. religion is not a factor. what will happen in the EU is what the issue is. Turkey is a large country, and their, economy and military will change a lot in the EU. its not because of religion
The Turkic people fall 90% in Asia. Only the Bosphourus side of Istanbul is in Europe. Turkic people include Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgystan, Tajikistan etc. They are migrants from that area to Constantinople area in the 12th century. Europeans won't easily let people whose history, culture, language and religion lies in Asia into Europe. That's opening the door to Asia.

Sakozy may have made such a claim in a member state where islamophobia wins votes for Le Pen, but most European leaders can not claim Turkey can't join Europe because they are Muslims and Islam never stopped them joining EU groups in the past.

In fact, Europe would be glad to have them inside.
I doubt that highly. You can't join the EU without the agreement of France and Germany and I don't see the Eastern Europeans or Greece being favourable to it. What France and Germany says goes in the EU. He who pays the piper dictates the tune. And Sarkozy was a moderate leader but he said plainly what they will never write down. EU is a Caucasian club. Russia has more chance of joining EU than Turkey if Russia choose to go that route.

I don't see Ukraine joining as well, it took some countries at least 14 years to get in. Ukraine is just starting. you know how polish citizens full UK? that's what the EU is trying to avoid. mass exodus from their country to other EU member states instead of settling in their own country.

a lot is playing against Turkey, Ukraine has similar issues too.

Ukraine's Destruction today is because The west always destabilizes countries and region with opposing powers. their Democracy destroys. you believe in democracy so instead of a coup to a democratically elected government, they should have waited and voted and not fallen for American influence when they were deciding who will lead the country.

at the end of the day, Ukraine has become another tool destroyed by the West. No be today this kind of struggle started between the west and the east. the Korean war is one. the vietnam war is another, Ukraine is another.
The Maidan revolution was a case of the parliament voting for free trade with EU but the President cancelling it to try to sign free trade with Russia. Once you sign these agreements you are bound by it for decades even if you vote out the President. The parliament has voted and the people have spoken. That is democracy, not one man undoing the will of the people. I don't know what provisions their democracy has for checkmating such a situation, but in the UK, Parliament will simply vote no confidence in the Prime Minister and fresh election will be called. I guess they don't have such recall provision in their constitution which is why they went the way of protest

Mount plays as the AM while Havertz play as the striker. What are you talking about?
I thought you said Mount was a winger not long ago

Both Mount and Havertz have been playing winger in a 3-4-3 for well over a year now with Havertz dipping in and out to the striker role. And what precludes Havertz from making assists like other strikers or false 9s

When will we see Havertz fumbling his assists and shots like Mount, and if not why is he not topping the goals and assists column?

This is conspiracy, Ib. The reason Turkey has not joined EU is because they have not fully complied with EU Regulations. They've been let into other European associations in the past despite being Muslims and will be let in this one soon as they comply.

For Europe, Erdogan is probably the obstacle, with his erratic economic policies and what seems like illegality.
I'll take your point but leave you with Nicolas Sarkozys statement. That's from France, the second power player in EU that you need to convince.

“Turkey may enjoy a privileged relationship with the EU, but full membership is excluded. Turkey is not European”.

"I do not believe that Turkey belongs in Europe, and for a simple reason, which is that it is in Asia minor,"

Note that Cyprus is in Asia minor too and is an EU member. Difference is religion.

But you tied Religion to it and then confuse religion for a race.
Forget that one. I was referring to your point that Turkey will join first before Ukraine

Turkey has been there for decades trying to join and Eastern Europeans seem to come along and get ticket in just a few years

That is simply because he doesn't have it in him to be creative. I saw him messing up good chances to create a goal from open play against very weak Southampton because he doesn't have the skill. Most people are bamboozled by his work rate, but eagled-eyed fans like us can easily set aside work rate from technique, which should be essentially the best quality of an attacking midfielder.

On the side, can you imagine Mount as a coach after he retires? grin grin grin
When will Havertz start messing up assists so we can criticise?

With 3 assists in the EPL and no evidence of him messing up assists, what could be the problem?

she may try, from what you posted it seems Ukraine won't be a candidate to join the EU but as Russia invade, everyone is acting like they love Ukraine. she is playing her part. tomorrow the Grammy or BET awards will call Ukraine to speak.

if they want to help Ukraine they should do better.
their laughable sanctions failed. they need to do better and make sure they pressure countries like India and China to make sure their sanctions are effective. they should look at themselves too. how do they still pump billions into russia.

all this talk or screengrab you are posting still does not change the fact that you say stupid things sometimes.

TURKEY IS NOT PART OF THE EUROPEAN UNION BECAUSE THEY ARE MUSLIMS - you say.

Those where stats mostly garnered in inconsequential games. My problem with Mount is his inability to make those penetrative passes at least at an average level. He consistently messes it up over and over again and that is the difference between average players and elite ones.
Where are the other ones assists

Infact where are the instances of the other ones having the opportunity to make assists and failing. That's more troubling

Another chance for Mount to create a goal and he blew it. I will continue pointing it out so you guys won't act surprised against Madrid.
Why always Mount?

Always Mount messing up goalscoring chances and opportunities to assist

Yet same Mount is top scorer and top assister

How I wish the others run as relentlessly and as diligently to get the chances to be criticised for missing goals and assists like Mount.

turkey wants to join EU so why are they not letting them?
why is the EU rejecting Ukraine?

Do they meet European standards?
you think they want to join means they can join? ask turkey how far
Turkey is not joining any EU cos they are Muslims and are not European, simple. Don't let NATO membership deceive you, which is simply a matter of military convenience. Turkey has been begging to join EU for 30 years. Soviet era countries that left Russia's orbit in 1990 were already in EU within 14 years. Let's not forget Cyprus affair with Greece.

EU already offered Ukraine a free trade deal which is practically a welcome, same as what Switzerland and co are on.

you don't understand choices. whoever they voted for is a plant. that's not democracy. understand that.
Turkey will join the EU before Ukraine. open your eyes.

Ukraine is just a tool used against Russia.
Rubbish propaganda.

The poorest country in Europe want to join the 2nd largest trading bloc and eat like their neighbours are doing, you say it's a plant.

Is there any mass movement toward Western ideals that won't be supported by the West, or any movement toward socialism that won't be supported by Russia and China. What counts is what the people want which is the opportunity to chop belleful and their pursuit of happiness. If it was not the will of the people, there would be a counter-movement to overthrow their leadership.

The plant was the President who wanted to keep them as the poorest country in Europe by rejecting closer ties with EU and the will of the people prevailed.

Imagine suffering in Nigeria and Buhari is rejecting chance to sign a deal with USA or even China which will allow every Nigerian to live la vida loca, because Britain told him not to, and you say people protesting that are plants.

Turkey is not joining any EU. Turkey is only in NATO because they fought 400 years wars intermittently with Russia and they control the Soviet Union's access to Southern Seas. The Northern Barents sea is frozen half the year. Russia literally cannot trade or move ships in the winter unless Turkey allows them. Turkey is just a convenient ally, not a friend. An enemy of my enemy is my friend scenario who have great geopolitical advantage over Russia.

Anyway Soros wants a new world order. The dollar has to be weakened so that China becomes dominant and America a drag to the world economy. His words not mine.
What do you think he meant by that?
He is responsible for what he said, not what you understand.

World order was a phrase used after 2nd world war to prevent authoritarianism and another war, so as far as anyone from the West saying New World Order, it must be to prevent another war caused by authoritarians, not the conspiracy definition
