    Son Heung-Min

    I've seen it said that Son doesn't want to be involved in football after he retires, but wants to play as long as possible. I think it was pretty clear he was leaving, but they needed him to play on tour. Could he still play against PSG? I think club legend is appropriate. He not only had the...

    2025 Women's European Championship

    They can get the same international payments as the men, who usually (or used to) give it to charity anyway. The women's team must get decent gate money. Obviously, it's a different matter with club football. P.S. The Nigerian government is giving all their women's team a three-bedroom flat for...

    Cheatski are still scum

    If it gets built. With questions over Stamford Bridge redevelopment or the Earl Court site, plus the pitch owners situation, they seem to have plenty of convenient reasons to delay the development that they committed to as condition of the sale. If they don't build the stadium they will be...

    2025 Women's European Championship

    Wiegman seems to have responded to criticism that she makes substitutions too late by making them even later. She did finally make a change to the starters. In 2022 she started the same team every game, so it will be interesting to see what she does with Kelly. Agyemang is extremely...

    Former Player Appreciation Thread

    I always worry when I see his name in a headline. No indication of the cause. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2025/07/20/paul-gascoigne-rushed-hospital-collapse/

    2025 Women's European Championship

    I thought it interesting that the commentators mentioned Berger's notes on where the ball would go before the two penalties she saved. Fantastic save to prevent the own goal, which would have been an incredibly cruel way for German resistance to end. While France were the better team, they can't...

    2025 Women's European Championship

    Isn't the rule now something about keeping the goalkeeper keeping their feet (or just one) on the line? The goalkeeper can move but can't step forward or take both feet off the ground. The goalie being able to move is balanced by allowing stutter steps by the penalty taker. If they stop going...

    Liverpool thread

    Terrible news. It's always tragic when a young person dies, but there is something particularly poignant when it's a sportsman at the peak of his powers.

    FIFA: Destroying Football Since 1904

    City may have found a solution. I suspect the lack of summer rest will be a factor. The league champions in England, Spain and Italy were not involved and their major challengers were, so we'll see if it helps their title defences.

    FIFA: Destroying Football Since 1904

    Yes, it is failing rather nicely. However, there is a lot of money for the winners and both Real and PSG are serious about winning. Their parading the world club champions title may help it gain acceptance over the next few years. FIFA don't give up on bad ideas easily.

    FIFA: Destroying Football Since 1904

    Can't blame Channel 5 for trying to promote it. Unfortunately, if they are successful, they won't get to show the next one.
