De Vrij’s agent took a commission on his transfer to Inter that he didn’t tell him about. De Vrij was awarded half of that commission and now the agent is appealing that.
There is one maxim of /r/soccer.
If a headline has “How” in the title, there will be at least one snarky comment in the replies oversimplifying the point of the article.
Depth isn’t only a matter of numbers, it’s also a matter of quality.
I see this repeated a lot but it’s not true in reality. Pep and Klopp rotate more than anyone. Having deep benches allow you to do that. Clubs with shallower benches are forced to play their best XI more often.
It sounds like the update is that he’s been left out of the England squad, meaning he’s for sure out a couple weeks. Not a lot of details beyond that.
It is funny that the club tries to dunk on Spurs over the Willian transfer with pieces like this when they apparently had to fudge their accounts to land him.
That is fucking wild. Thankfully both are safe.
I don’t really get the point of combining Post-Shot xG with Save % when the former was meant to be a better indicator of good goalkeeping than the latter.
It was sort of part of the whole package that he came off as a bit of a “Brit Returning from Abroad” type.
Good interview as always from Sid Lowe. Brendan Rodgers and his Spanish became a bit of a meme but clearly, it was a nice touch for some players like Suso, particularly since he was signed by Rafa.

All those working class girls need is a desire to play football which they obviously don’t have
I’m getting strong “Look at the Lobster, for example” vibes here.
Reddit gets very testy whenever the topic of diversity in the workforce comes up, even when the context is as tame as “We’d like to make sure that everyone feels there’s a possibility of finding successful employment here”.
A bit mad that Villa can bring a player like him off the bench.
so it cannot tarnish the success of the albiceleste in Qatar.
I mean, that’s not really up to you to decide.
This means the Final will likely be held on the east coast and we will thankfully avoid a World Cup final being played at noon.
? I’m not saying that it’s only Italian players who bet on football, I was just wondering if he was caught by being flagged by the regular system, or if the betting houses were tipped off by the same guy who’s allegedly ratted out the other three.
It’s not really another way though is it? Or rather, or it’s not adding more decisions to be made. Previously it was “Do I give this person a a yellow or nothing for saying that to me” and now it’s “Do I give this person an orange or nothing for saying that to me”.
