🇮🇹 Inter Milan on a pace for ~100 points [2nd best ever]
Currently:
Inter has won 63 pts from 24 games
2.65 points per game
They are on a pace for 99.75 pts
That would be the 2nd best ever tally, Juve with Conte won 102 (2013-14)
They conceded only 12 goals so far, fewest
🗣️ Roy Keane on the time he considered signing Robbie Savage for Sunderland:
“I rang Mark Hughes. Robbie [Savage] wasn’t in the Blackburn team and I asked Mark if we could try to arrange a deal. Sparky said: ‘Yeah, yeah, he’s lost his way here but he could still do a job for
Miroslav Klose:
🗣 “The football I grew up playing is no longer there. Today, all players care about their cars, their shoes with their name on it, and their image. While for me, the only thing that counted was football. Nothing else."
I'll be uploading my final World Cup tactical analysis in a few hours. Will start working on UEFA Super Cup right after. Then it's Chelsea vs Arsenal.
I know it took some time, that's my bad. But I'm back and I'm really excited for this season!
After corruption scandals involving his predecessor Michel Platini, current UEFA president Aleksander Čeferin introduced term limits in 2016, stating that you can only serve three terms as president. Eight years later, he now wants to get rid of that rule so he can stay in power
I'm working on a Tactical profile of Liverpool atm. I really wanted to be finished before the match, but it seems like it'll take more time. The video will be up around 10 am EST / 3 pm BST tomorrow.
I'll do Liverpool vs PSG tactical analysis following that.
🚨🚨 First talks between Bayern and Xabi Alonso have taken place; should he leave Leverkusen this summer he is more likely to join Bayern than Liverpool where he feels he could lose more than he could win.
A fee between 15 to 25 million euros would be due, depending on the
Wilfried Zaha:
➡️ He donates 10% of his salary to charity
➡️ He helped the Crystal Palace women's team financially so that they could continue to exist when they were having economic difficulties
➡️ He works extensively with charities, including helping underprivileged
🗣️ José Mourinho: “If I tell you that I consider one of the best achievements of my career was finishing second with Manchester United in the Premier League, you will say: 'this guy is crazy'. I say that because people don't know what's going on behind the scenes.”
🗣️ Benzema "People don't know this but in the 2014 UCL final, Cristiano and I had an adductor injury and Bale had a thigh injury. We played that match at 50%. All 3 of us. But we we all wanted to play"
Actually, just realized there's no way I can be done even if I skip the two games tomorrow. So I'll do France vs Argentina first. That should allow me to post a tactical profile type of video for England and Belgium before their match.
Congratulations to France 🇫🇷, the World Champions.
Huge respect to Croatia 🇭🇷 for their journey and what they accomplished.
What a tournament this has been

Di María says he will not play in the 2024 Olympics if Argentina qualifies: "I decided to end with the Copa América, it's the last. I had many years of suffering in the NT, but after winning the Copa América it was joy and happiness."
Jermain Defoe on his relationship with Bradley Lowery:
"It was really special. He gave me such a good feeling. Maybe because of all the stuff I'd been through, with people trying to take advantage & that pain. Then all of a sudden, I met Brads and it was so genuine. When he
🗣️ Erling Haaland responds to Trent Alexander-Arnold’s claims that winning a trophy with Liverpool is more valuable than Man City:
“If he means that, fine. I've been here for a year, I won the treble and it was quite nice. I don't think he knows this feeling..."
Saudia Arabia's tactics are awful. Going way too offensive from the start which is forcing them to get isolated at the back. Forced to go long vs a physically stronger (and taller) team.
Should ask midfielders and fullbacks to drop much deeper than before.

I'm really excited to share this analysis with you guys.
It's more detailed than my usual videos because I didn't want to leave much out, even if it takes a bit longer.
Trying my best to put it out before the match day starts tomorrow.
🗣️ Lothar Matthäus: "Uli Hoeneß said once 'Bayern Munich will no longer bring in players from clubs that are sitting on the bench or in the stands.' The last transfer looks different. That's not Bayern Munich for me. Bayern Munich should strengthen itself or build on the young
At the age of 20 years and 362 days, Rasmus Højlund becomes the club's youngest player to score and assist in consecutive Premier League games, surpassing Cristiano Ronaldo's record (21) set in 2007.

In 2010, after a training session, a young Manchester City supporter asked Mario Balotelli for an autograph. The latter asks him why he is not at school, and the child explains that his absence is due to harassment from one of his classmates.
Immediately, the attacker puts the
🗣️ Mauricio Pochettino on Gary Neville's 'blue billion pound bottle jobs' comment:
"I have a good relationship with Gary. How I can take no his opinion, but i respect his opinion..."
🗣 Eden Hazard: "Chelsea is more familiar than Real Madrid, there we had to win. At Chelsea, we lost and the next day we laughed a little in the shower.
That didn't happen in Madrid. At Real Madrid, you could feel in training that people weren't entirely happy if we lost."
While we were busy with Article 13, Article 12a was passed quietly.
"No one but the organiser of a sports event should have the right to make available (share, present), reproduce or record. Merely a snapshot of anything going on in the stadium would be a copyright violation."
Probably won't have time to finish the Belgium video before it's match. I'll try but it seems unlikely.
If I'm not able to, I'll post it sometime after England vs Colombia (England video will still go up before the match as planned)
France vs Argentina should be out in 6/7 hours

🗣️ Memphis: "The Quincy Promes that you people read about, is not the Quincy Promes that I know. I don't know the Quincy Promes that is prosecuted. I don't come from an easy environment. If people read my book, they will understand. Dani Alves and Mendy are my friends too."
Had something unexpected come up these past few days. United vs Tottenham should be up by tomorrow (AT MOST) since more than half of the video is already done.
Not sure if I can do some videos during the international break, will try my best. Let me know JIC which match you want.
🗣️ Mario Balotelli: “Mino Raiola always told me that Ronaldo and Messi have a lot of Ballon d'Or because I play at 20% of my capacity. And if I played 100% I would already have one.
This sentence seems to be too big but knowing me and also knowing my qualities, it is true.
🗣️ Javier Tebas: "Barcelona has always had the habit of going to the maximum salary limit imposed by La Liga. Other clubs like, Real Madrid, for example, never reached the limit it could reach, it was more cautious and that gave them the room to control the situation when the
Should I make a shorter video and try to upload it before the match or a bit longer with more details (but it'll be up after match)?

Ole definitely got caught off guard. Even tho MU are creating chances, Ole needs to make a tactical change because ARS are focused on messing with their build up.
Very impressed with how Unai Emery set his team up. He's taking a lot of risk though, which can easily backfire 1/2

Longer video it is then.
I wanted to put more time into this video since I believe Belgium are going to be a top side for a long time to come, even if the result doesn't go their way in the quarter finals. So thanks for allowing me to do that :)
The next video is close to being ready. Tbh, that has been the case for some time now but I keep coming across new challenges since I've never done something like this before. I'm enjoying it a little, ngl.
Rest assured, for future videos the whole process will be much smoother.
🗣️ Cesc Fàbregas: "Arsène Wenger is the best coach for young players. I cannot see anyone better than him. He gives opportunities, he teaches you.
He never shakes under pressure and that’s not easy. He has this ability. I love the way he understands football."

🗣️ David Beckham: “One day, when I was at Manchester United, I made myself a Mohawk. I knew Sir Alex Ferguson wasn't going to like it, so the first days of training I put on a hat to hide in the locker room, on the pitch or at meals.
But on game day I had to take my hat off.
Neymar and his family have helped Dani Alves in his legal battle by paying the €150,000 in damages. The two men are very close friends in life and the Brazilian number 10 did everything to help his friend during his trial. [

🗣️ Pep Guardiola on Carabao Cup: "I still remember when I arrived at City, Brian Kidd told me: Carabao Cup, don’t pay attention! Play young players, nobody cares… Sir Alex Ferguson was always, eugh it doesn’t matter”. “Phwoar, I don’t know what happened in the last years!”.
🗣️ Zinédine Zidane: "One day in Italy? Why not. Anything can happen, at the moment I'm doing something else but I'm sure I'll be back on the bench, I'd love to."
