Tottenham are interested in Kurt Zouma as a 'Plan B' centre back option this summer.

I don't want Kurt Zouma to leave

� Chelsea are reportedly 'open' to selling Timo Werner - and have not given up hope of bringing Romelu Lukaku back to Stamford Bridge.
No no no,

Racism in the Mediterranean region (Which Italy is part of) is something else, they consider people in other regions as either too dark or too white therefore looking down upon such people, coupled with the fact that they've built great civilizations in the past they belittle those outside their group with little or no provocation.
Another area where racism is rife is Middle East even those who ascribe to Islam practice racism despite the opposition of the religion to racism.
Back to the topic, racism is a societal problem not a sporting one and gesturing in stadia won't solve the problem if people are not properly educated about the issue in their homes, schools and punished for being racists.
Racism in Italy is on an industrial level, to the point where pundits feel comfortable using racist terms on live TV, Sky Italia no less, and the Inter Milan fans told Lukaku(their own player) that monkey chants are actually a form of respect for him.The largest political party in their parliament got there on ultra-right wing rhetoric.

These guys really really really don't like black people, except for when it's time to fück, then they love us

Spain and Portugal are not as racist as Italy due to their colonial history. Italy is on another level

Amoto, thanks for this.
This was quite a powerful interview. I must say, I like rudigers literary prowess. And he's obviously insightful.
I'm surprised a powerful article like this didn't make waves when initially released. Systemic racism? Maybe. This was very insightful.

Systemic racism is the greatest obstacle to eliminating racism. Notice how rudigers continually called out the press for it's role in fuelling racist rethoric?

Actually it did especially in Chelsea circles on Twitter and reddit. I am not sure but I think I posted the link here. It was like 3 or 4 days before the final. Racism in Italy is just too overboard, probably only matched by that of those slavic Eastern europeans. Those ones are racist not just to blacks but to anyone not speaking their tongue.

Enough chances. Too much space to attack, too much time to shoot, comical errors and mistakes, etc. They were sluggish and slow both physically and mentally- and you could see that they were putting in all their strength. grin

Brazil just scored Zambia. The free kick wasn’t fast and it was a few inches away from the GK. It still went in grin

In almost all other sports you still see that the women are athletic and extremely fit.
It is only in football that even some of the best female footballers look sluggish and unathletic.
It is worse with the goalkeepers. Those ones usually dive as if they are pregnant.

Still reading but love the way he points out the press, and some of us here also act the same subtle way.

Media influence, calling players names, brutish, brainless, and it's like it is nothing, freedom of speech or abuse.

Look at people like Raumdeuter, Havertz10 that will keep hating a player even when they are on break cry especially the latter. Some would say I just hate English players shocked it comes so natural to them


cheesy

"Four months ago, social media said I was worthless. Kai was not good enough. Timo was not good enough. Never mind that Kai and Timo had moved to a new country in the middle of a pandemic. Never mind that we are human beings, not robots. It didn’t matter. We were all worthless.

Now here we are four months later, in a Champions League final.


Maybe this will be a good lesson for everyone. Maybe. But I’m not so sure about that. The thing about lessons is that you have to actually listen if you want to learn anything."

The defending is comical and the GKs are the worst. They react poorly to almost all kinds of shots.

What gets me is them prematurely coming out od their area to claim an aerial ball, realizing they miscalculated and then hurrying back to the line to concede the goal.

Chelsea officially in talks with Sevilla for Jules Kounde.

Do we really need a new CB?

"Chelsea have officially opened official talks with Sevilla for Jules Koundé. [@FabrizioRomano]

He’s Chelsea and Tuchel’s main target at centre back this summer. Koundé is open to the move.

Tottenham had an agreement with Sevilla for Kounde, but he rejected the move."
My concern is his height and lack of pace

He looks like he can be drafted to play DM. He looks too short as a CB for me.

The free kick was well executed.. I have seen worse free kick goals in men's football.

The two team are sluggish though. The Zambians footballers just booting the ball anywhere they like.

Netherland is one favourite for gold though.

shocked that your question get has e be. Zouma maybe leaving, Silva is 37years old and won't even start the season with us, that leaves us with Rudiger and Christensen who are yet to renew their contracts which they might.

Even with Ampadu and Sarr in a 3CBs, we need at least 6CBs with all the fixtures next season. If Chelsea don't sign Kounde, Madrid will

A lot of goals in women's football always look spectacular though because the goal keepers are awfully bad and the defending comical.
