The revisionist history is mad. It's like how Martial has apparently been at the club for almost 10 years for the past 3 seasons. Strawman arguments everywhere

Sure, but optics aren't reality. And he did actually come to watch some of our games during that time. I think the whole thing is just salty fans who needed a scapegoat as they thought he was pulling a fast one. So they exaggerated what's actually happening in order to intensify their rebuke...

I think he'd be a quality player for us. His speed alone opens up new tactical possibilities for ETH. https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/man-utd-fans-left-fuming-youtube-sensation-ishowspeed-fa-cup-semi-final-clash-coventry/blt3e98f4c3c83b98a8

Just because he's watching tennis every weekend doesn't mean he's not recovering from injury. Why do people think injured players must stay at home locked in a cryo chamber? Maybe he should have stuck around Carrington dishing out bibs in training :lol:.

Far from it you being a jerk. I appreciate the insight. I'm merely speaking on the surface levels how these funding are distributed. I'm fully aware that FIFA doesn't fund everything but they do give some money out. Thos provided by governments. All this to say I'm hoping FIFA will provide more...

True they do not pay every single country but Fifa gives all associations football development subsidies and I don't see how FIFA doesn't increase their budget to be in line with this annual tournament. Again it's up to each association how they distribute it. Fifa is a bit like Sport England in...

The women already play a crazy amount of international games. The number of players with 100+ international caps is insane compared to the men. Clearly the appetite to play internationals is there as these women are pretty much playing glorified friendlies throughout their calendars. Can cut all...

Which is fine as Kudus is having a better season than pretty much any United forward right now. People only still comparing him Antony due the similarities in their careers. Same position, same club, same manager. When in fact it's a disservice to Kudus to be even having a Kudus vs Antony...

Boring dumb posts from you in the whole thread. At least Kudus is scoring.

Refer to my previous post. I was speaking relatively and responding to a post about why don't we host the men's adult football annually. It's cost a lot more to host the senior men's tournaments than the women or juniors so financially and logistically impossible to host every year but the U-17...

In fact I'd argue for the Women's world cup to be held biennially. It's clearly the biggest money maker in women's football. Women's football needs momentum more than the prestige that you get with the mens. I know practically this won't be possible due to continental cups but I'd rather those...

To be fair to FIFA, they do take care of all travel, accommodation and logistics for teams who qualify for their tournaments. They also give all football associations enough money for football development in their countries. That's one of the things they are actually good at. As to what the...

When you think about it most other international sport federations host their World championships either annually or biennially. Football (+ Rugby, Cricket) World Cups being held every 4 years is atypical and has more to do with logistics and economics of the sport rather than anything. We could...

Precisely. Here we have 2 players from the same team, played for same manager. If one got purchased for almost twice the money wouldn't that player be rated as the bigger talent and therefore more expected of them? How's Kudus "stat padding"? I wish Antony or any of our players could stat pad...

So what's your ratio of desire to injury? Martial was by no means tearing it up before his injury woes but he was still a 1 goal in 3 winger/forward. Which is respectable for a player about to hit their peak years (24-25) and coming off his most productive season in 19/20. When it comes to...
