Bukayo Saka and Lamine Yamal are executing the same dribble here. But Yamal's looks more aesthetically pleasing & is rated more
Why does Saka's dribble look less aesthetical?
It's because he's more of a stop-and-start athlete than Lamine.
A Master's Thread 🧵/
City cheated. Ridiculous. Unconscionable. People have not really understood what this means.
Them getting Guardiola, Yaya, KDB, Kompany, Fernandinho, Nasri, the two Silvas, Aguero and Kevin De Bryune was because they cheated.
A false history, a false glory, a false club.
PL shouldn’t destroy City as a brand asset.
They should be stripped of their titles posthumously, heavily fined for several years, with fines distributed to the most affected clubs in 4 UCL positions around them.
What does this mean for the legacy of Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp?
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Manchester City found guilty on virtually all charges relating to breaches of Premier League financial regulations. #MCFC expected to appeal against verdict issued by independent commission. Sanctions undecided, process ongoing @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/7049721…
People are not fungible resources to be used and discarded. So many fakers & climbers do not understand that.
Low Stakes Relationships: fine, mundane, no risks, easy friendship.
High Stakes Relationships: fundamental value differences become critical, ego plays, loyalty, brotherhood.
Most low stakes relationships do not survive transitions into high stakes relationships.
Given he is young, there is room for him to maybe fill out some more and add some bulk that can make him physically stable enough to play CF.
I’m not super sure, though. Alvarez has more motoring power so he can move his bulk a lot more. Kroupi also has a lean frame.
I believe that Brentford’s recruitment is superior to Brighton’s in every single area except wingers.
Evil.
My self-taught recruitment model is also what people at highest level are using.
Player Profiling to the stars.
People talk about how young players often need a lot of minutes to “improve” but I think it’s overstated.
What most of them need is physical maturity. People conflate the need for time with the need for minutes.
Arteta is proof that if you don’t back the right guy as a person, organization or company, you’re going to be the loser.
Rare talents always have options & will be fine; companies that want to be great do not have those options.
Every single PL attacker people think are ‘mid’ right now explode if you put them in La Liga.

I mean look at post back surgery Rashford at Barca. Look at Raphinha. Look at Gordon.
Defenders matter. Defending quality matters.
People just don’t want to admit that the levels of defenders, especially in the PL, has risen enormously.
Attackers cost a lot of money even for rich clubs. Where do you think all that PL money been going into at small sides?
What is the common ground between Spurs & Atletico Madrid that explains the Gyokeres performance?
The defenders. Go check it yourself.
Dragusin, Hancko, Palhinha, Pubill—all makeshift CBs.
