Rodri's strike comment

[Barcon]

Not very patriotic that though.

Maybe the orange weirdo would rather play for his own planet.

Rodri is 100 per cent correct. The football authorities are taking the piss. Too many meaningless internationals, too many CL games. Footballers are athletes and should be supported. They bring joy to billions of people. The top ones are the best of the best and worth every penny they are paid. Racehorses are treated better.

Successful clubs always play more games and at club level there are loads more players to choose from, I remember baconface pulling this shit and getting slated for it.

I don't agree with the CL format full stop I would go straight to the old knockout formula, either way fuck international friendlies there isn't anything exotic about them they are a nuisance in a season that has always been long for successful clubs.

They moan if they aren't playing and they moan if they are playing too much, just get your pants and jersey on and kick off FFS.

I completely agree and you have to get your priorities in order. I don't think anyone should quit international football, but in a long season when you've just won the Euro's do you need to roll out for Spain in the NL?? If it was a World Cup qualifier or a tournament then fine, but you have to be wise to what games are important. Pep will see the CL and league as vital and look to go as strong as possible in those games. The FA Cup he'll balance things as required and the league cup I'd expect him to go for youth and fringe players heavily this season. Then we'll see who is fucked by the time the Club World Cup comes along and pick a squad accordingly. But as I said before, we're likely to be getting to the latter stages with the other European times and could use younger players up to that point anyway.

The cretins complaining about them being overpaid primadonnas and about how they should work shifts down the mine etc are the first armchair weirdos to complain the standard is going to shit when all of the best players are knackered, injured or playing shite.

I thought you had to play for your country ?

You do

Not particularly, but apparently didn't like waistcoat very much, so make of that what you will

Footballers’ union should limit the number of matches a player can play. 50 a year should be enough. No reason why City can’t manage our squad around this number. I kind of hope we do as this season, more so than ever, we are going to need all our players fit and chomping at the bit when it’s time to hand out the trophies.

He’s just a weirdo full stop. He plays like he should play for Atletico Madrid. An anti-football wind up merchant.
