RM Interviewer

Top tier publicity in #UEFA womens leagues - #FAWSL matches will be all streamed live globally. september 2nd 2019 on this new application called the F.A. player. While I comprehend Arianna's query to Division 1 , I come to realize the culture in France to soccer is very much a local concept. England has a culture of selling soccer, advertising media campaigning is very strong in england. Sell sell sell, I think the french are just not enthralled with selling their leagues like that. I comprehend part of it. If a player wants to leave let them leave. If people want to know what goes on , France have many sources to keep people updated. But I think france is honest about another true factor, the market for french speakers is just not large in the monied places. Let's be honest, how many french or german speakers exist among the populace in north america, that has money. Not many. England plays on the fact that the usa is an english speaking country too. That is why england advertises the way it does, to relate to the usa. Yes, the globe will have access but lets be honest, will south american/east asian/francophone african look at english womens soccer, i doubt it, for various reasons. The question is, is the investment really worth it. As a fan of french soccer I wish someone with money made the investment but if I am honest, it doesn't have any gains short term.

#Intermilan women transfers #Maximim- thanks @OffsideBeet @Don_Nerazzurri @GFFN @sempreintercom Inter Milan have made some transaction, many seem from the central european zone. Not household names but inter have many players from center to west continental europe and I imagine those players or interista <not spelled correctly> helped make these happen. article https://sempreinter.com/2019/08/02/inter-women-add-five-ahead-of-the-new-season/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter tweet https://twitter.com/SempreIntercom/status/1157087401350615041 On a side note Allan Saint-Maximin has left OGCNice for newcastle. Considering the usual way players from france who go to newcastle fit, maximin will be back in france in three to four seasons. From Nicolas Pepe who left UEFA champions league play for no champions league play to maximin who left a youthful program that fit his style of play to the lower quality francophone galacticos that is newcastle, I continue to have problems in the moves players make from france ligue1 to the english premier league, the moves are rarely to competitive teams in england, more minnows in england who have tons of money through sponsorship that can afford high priced talent but not enough to their betters domestically. ahh well, good luck maximim, à bientôt article https://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2019/official-newcastle-united-sign-allan-saint-maximin/ tweet https://twitter.com/GFFN/status/1157387398684270592

#Iwobi #ZAha at #Arsenal - both players need to leave Arsenal for a club in the chinese super league. IF they want money then remain in the EPL. But if they want to lead teams then they need to go where they will be offered the chance to lead and resettle their playing styles. Currently both are used to utilitarian. As I said earlier about germany 2014 squad. Some players big problem is they need to be used in a way they are not and it is killing their game.

Finance in womens sport - Julia Wanjeri < @jwanjeri > has spoken very truthfully about the false fiscal statement from many that promotion into the womens world cup will generate fiscal investment from football associations to their womens program. To be honest, the USA/BRasil/Nigeria each prove this true. Brasil in conmebol side Nigeria in caf dominate their regional competition in the womens game like the usa in concacaf, but CBF in brasil or NFF in nigeria have not replied to their female flag teams success in their confederation with finding investors to support above living wage salaried athletic activity in either country. In the USA, the uswnt players are aided by USSoccer through salaries, but the nwsl absent USWNT players is no other than the Nigerian or Brasilian womens leagues. While Julia is correct in calling out lies the problem of financing in countries is very simple. Male dominance. I find many, including myself, when we speak of financing to always use neutral terms concerning race. We use the words: them, the group, community. I rarely publicly say: whites or males when it comes to fiscal utilization from the have's to the have nots being blacks or women. Male communities is the simple pure reason: why Ivory Coast banned womens soccer or other CAF countries have no womens program, why in every soccer mad Conmebol country womens soccer program is beneath amateur or unpaid, why the same can be said for most in AFC, why JApan won its only world cup and yet the nadeshiko league was not embraced by japanese financial communities more. I am a man but the truth is, in most countries, the male community dominates the financial ownership often in the ninety percent range. Sequentially, if the male community has a bias towards the parallel female community living in the same geograph, then growing/potent/positive fiscal investment will be denied by that bias.

#Atleti defeat the #MLS all stars - many will say Atleti's pre season goals and electricity is a measure of new signings or changes but this is Atleti's slow patient planning. Atletico MAdrid is a team that has sold many a player, some legends like a godin, some greats like torres, some failures like a martinez, some journeyman like Turan, but Atleti kept it going and kept a defensive first setup while picked players willing to play that way for season after season. Atleti saved and invested in sure players mostly, if you consider most of the players into atleti, very few were duds in the simeone era. yes, some but most were successful and you can argue the biggest failures were center forwards , whose goal needs out the atleti bunker is a unique desire. https://www.weibo.com/7030963893/I0be6t6KL?from=page_1005057030963893_profile&wvr=6&mod=weibotime

#Copalibertadores night 7312019 Internacional vs Nacional- Paulo Guerrero I watched for years. I recall him best when the Timao, Corinthians , he led , coached by Tite, with PAulinho in midfield, defeated my Drogbaless Chelsea. From that match onward, I saw and see him as a true number 9 and a top goal getter... yet he has never had or accepted a call away to fiscally green pastures in Chian or the usa. I can comprehend if no one called then he had no reason to leave. I don't know why teams in the usa or china haven't presented Guerrero , the soldier, with money and whatever else to leave. Now if they called and he said no, then I respect he has enjoyed his conmebol career, a peruvian in the brasilian waters. oh and Internacional defeated Nacional Paulo Guerrero goal https://www.weibo.com/7030963893/I0aFs0PWc?from=page_1005057030963893_profile&wvr=6&mod=weibotime Flamengo vs Emelec- when the match started Gabriel Barbosa missed a sitter and I tweeted his name is gabriel barbosa not gabigol. Then Mengao earned a penalty that G. Barbosa scored, through trickery from Rafinha. Then B. henrique's wide play led to a cross that was tipped by Everton Riberio to G Barbosa who slotted it in.

The fall of Die #Mannschaft- 2014 I recall. A team that embarrassed a neymarless brazil in brazil. A team full of players coming off a great period for Bayern, others journeymen regarded as excellent. I concur to MAtt Pearson that players from Neuer to Muller are variant in the reasons to their club decline. Some it is based on change of life <captain lahm,klose>. Some have been injured too much or in one way extremely < Goetze/Boateng/Hummels>. But I think Schweinsteiger showed the way forward for Ozil/Muller/Schurrle/Kroos. No I don't mean joining Major League Soccer as much as join or go to teams that will build around you, through your skills or experience. I recall Ozil at REal madrid then arsenal or Schurrle at Leverkusen then chelsea then a little hazy to dortmund. Ozil or Schurrle were never on a team that went through them or centered on them. The last team whose attack was somewhat built through Schurrle was at Leverkusen. After that he was always a side man. Ozil was never built around a central midfield role. At Arsenal CArzola was the one people loved in the midfield. When cazorla got hurt, Ozil was given the role but the team didn't seem built around him, even now. Kroos won three straight uefa champions leagues but Kroos was never deemed the center of the midfield, always an attache. Modric or casemiro are thought of in that key midfielder role more than kroos. But, kroos like marcelo/bale love real madrid money and media and comfort, even when booed, in my opinion. Muller is another player, like Kroos, who is comfortable at a club he was part to a lot of success but has become an attache player, quietly. Ozil need to make a move to a turkish superlig team, but the English premier league money is probably what stalled a move. Schurrle should had made a move to a team in the chinese super league or major league soccer in the usa to be the center of an attack instead of going back to germany. TOni KRoos is complicated in that his personal media pages show a thoughtful man who sticks to contentment. He has won it all outside of the Over 21 Euros or Copa del Rey for club or flag but I am truly uncertain he will continue playing when his real madrid time is up. I hope so, but if he does he must go to the east of uefa or leave uefa all together and get more playing time in a central role. If that means on a lesser team, which he is not used to, so be it. Muller is another hard one. Historically,a one club man, at a great club who won it all outside the UEFA European championship. But, like Kroos I am uncertain he is interested in having a late career outside top clubs but if he does, he must do like Bastian and move away from UEFA or to the UEFA east as I suggest tOni Kroos do. Muller to me is still a very good player, so is Kroos, but they are caught on teams with so much talent they seem less than. If money is what they want, that makes the choice simple, a club in usa or china, but like BAstian Kroos or Muller can get in a good situation if they plan it right... maybe even join bastian in Chicago. article https://www.dw.com/en/whats-happened-to-germanys-world-class-players/a-49834810 tweet https://twitter.com/thisismpearson/status/1156652573941796866 referrer https://twitter.com/Ahema6

#FIFAWWC expansion- It is amazing how the womens world cup just ended and while people criminalized the usa womens national team success against Thailand I don't see how an expanded womens world cup will breed better results in the group stage. The problem I have to womens flag soccer is how imbalanced many arguments are. People who support womens soccer for over ten years , like myself, or people who only cognize womens soccer during world cups say they want better competition, oppose blowouts, but then pronounce overjoy at expansion. It took mens soccer a long time to expand the mens world cup to the current format. Who is fiscally profiting through these expansions? It clearly isn't most womens soccer flag programs. In my mind, I thought the point of world cup qualification was to make the competition to places in the world cup appropriate. Then the world cup will have the best. The expansion is undoing the role of world cup qualification. Let the Vietnam's and similar flag programs battle against their betters in their region. Pushing this expansion quicker than the mens world cup is not serving the time it takes for these projects to grow. And, failure can have a negative financial reaction to those willing to finance the womens game in any country. Jamaica made it into the womens world cup in france 2019 but their program was lucky to be financed, aided by Bob Marley's descendant. Vietnam was clearly unprepared for the level of competition in the world cup. As someone who follows various womens soccer news, most football association's womens programs are not in any way prepared for a world cup competition. Why give more entries? Let the world cup qualifiers be more competitive then open more entries. Nigeria has won every single womens cup of nations in CAF? doesn't that show C.A.F. competition has not grown enough. I am happy for some womens flag teams to get their first entry into the world cup, during the next iteration. But it is clearly for sponsorship or advertisers or various fiscal concerns but not to reflect athletic quality or adjust the competition based on leveling or measuring athletic quality... and that to me is unfortunate. SOUTH AFRICA HOSTING the next world cup I support south africa getting the next world cup over other options but I do worry about stadiums and seats. Again, the media reality, the tweet likes and the reality offline are not congruent. In FRance, turnout was low from many countries. What are the stadiums south africa plans to utilize. I hope not huge ones that have current female fan bases making the turnout seem bad, when the turnout is good, the stadium is too big. How is south africa prepared to invite foreigners into south africa in huge quantities and fiscally given cost breaks to fill up stadiums? Yes, the usa womens national team and south africa may have no problem. But, some stadiums in south africa look hard to fill for the fanbases many womens flag teams have. Second, will south africa figure out a way to connect financing to the womens world cup to sponsorship for SASOL league teams? In the end, if sponsors are willing to support a sasol league team or the sasol league for some years, then give them advantage over other sponsors. Demand every male club in south africa that wants their stadium used to support a womens team in SASO at a certain financial minimum, which includes mamalodi sundowns, who have a womens team.

#Maia and the corporate #JogoBonito - Rodrigo Maia wants to open fiscal investment from groups outside brazil , not single individuals, into clubs in brazil through forcing clubs into forming into corporations and by initiating that process be given five years tax free from Brazil. I paraphrase Maia concerning how most clubs in Brazil are administered, they are :"primary, primitive, backward". Maia also stated three clubs are fiscally feasible in the future using the current model: Flamengo, Corinthians, Palmeiras. I advocated various concepts or ideas into funding Brazilian clubs outside the socio model. Sequentially, you may think I am overjoyed at Maia. ... I am not. The first problem is his own statements. What is it about Flamengo/Corinthians/Palmeiras that make them fiscally feasible in the current model? He doesn't say or the article doesn't divulge if he ever said. Second problem is the fiscal environment, an aspect of privacy exist in the fiscal activity in the socio model that is liked by the majority of the fiscal investors in the current system. Forcing clubs to become corporations functionally will filter out any fiscal investors into the clubs in Brazil that can not afford a paper trail back to their own activities. While some will suggest this is definitely good, I am not so certain. Third is large money groups, Maia likes the ownership groups of Liverpool/Paris Saint Germain/Manchester City. But each of those groups is not domestic, Liverpool is from the usa, MCFC or PSG is from a seperate entity in Dubai. Said groups were not able to use their administrative greatness to make legendary teams in their domestic leagues that won their regional competitions. The red sox ownership group knows of the new england revolution, why haven't they tried to take it from kraft and make it a great brand? Either group from dubai hasn't led to an asian footbal confederation champions league winner from dubai? I will continue, the head coach or most players in Paris Saint Germain/Liverpool/Manchester City are not domestic. The top Brazilian teams offer opportunity to Brazilian youth more than any western UEFA top team to their own youth. Top Brazilian teams hire Brazilian coaches. Maia's plan ignores focusing on how the teams he admits are doing the best in the current environment work. While he denies through not speaking, his desire to eliminate not only the administration but the fiscal activity that has supported Brazilian soccer for a very long time, which is domestic based. And lastly, ignores the history to foreign groups from dubai or the usa, in how they manipulate the common practices of clubs, which is in stark contrast to how most Brazilian clubs operate. Now, I imagine you are thinking, he has changed his position toward foreign investment in Brasil. I have not, and I concur to Maia's ideas but not how he implements them. Maia wants to offer a tax free period after forcing clubs to change. I concur to allowing foreign fiscal investing groups, moreover individuals. But forcing a change or a tax free zone after a forcing is not needed. My plan is to allow new clubs to be made in Brazil starting at the third or fourth tier, owned by foreign investor groups or individuals,and they can have a three to four year tax break. Instead of forcing Brazilian clubs to change and eradicating the system in brazil, which produced neymar, ronaldhino, won copa libertadores, has made successes. Why not allow competition between the socio and the corporate. But, do it in the context of relegation and promotion, in the context of history. Socios have a long history in brazil, why hand corporations everything and make pay their way. If anyone wants to invest in anything seriously, they are in it for the long term. Sequentially, any serious investment group from outside brazil will want to invest long term in a club in Brazil. Let them start one, from the ground up, make history/succeed/fail just like all the socios did and do. In the end, if the corporations administration is as Maia claims, if the administration of the socio clubs is as primitive or backward as he claim, then in ten years, corporate clubs will have all the spots in the brazil serie a. I say , let competition force changes, don't force changes absent competition. Real madrid/Barcelona/Juventus/Bayern munich prove you don't need to have a non domestic ownership group to make a successful soccer team. referral https://twitter.com/Cynegeticus/status/1156321484341727232 Article in original portuguese https://globoesporte.globo.com/futebol/noticia/rodrigo-maia-quer-abrir-futebol-brasileiro-para-investidores-nos-moldes-dos-clubes-europeus.ghtml in google translate english https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=pt&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fgloboesporte.globo.com%2Ffutebol%2Fnoticia%2Frodrigo-maia-quer-abrir-futebol-brasileiro-para-investidores-nos-moldes-dos-clubes-europeus.ghtml

#USWNT the #NWSL and money- Rabeeta < @Offsidebeet > asked a question off an article from Rachel BAchman < @BAchscore > . Do any other WNTs have a structure like this? This being where a football association pays for the club salaries of players. Thus the NWSL is not like any other league, male or female on earth. the NWSL is literally a football association league designed for the female flag team of the u.s.a. Rabeeta is right to suggest shock at this uniqueness. But, I will focus on the financial aspects to this that Rachel Bachman didn't mention. USSoccer isn't paying female flag players equivalent to male flag players. Though results shouldn't matter in pay to men or women in my view, especially in athletic competitions. But, if USSoccer is forced to pay women equally to men then ussoccer has to stop paying the club salaries of women players, cause the men have to have the right to demand ussoccer pay their club salaries as well. And, if ussoccer stops paying the club salaries will the national womens soccer league in the usa survive? I don't think so. The NWSL is dead if USSoccer don't pay the salaries to the top uswnt athletes. Second, globally the comparatives are smaller. Brazil/Nigeria/Japan/China/Germany have womens teams and their female teams can not even remotely argue such a thing as equal pay. The USWNT is asking equal pay , like Hegerberg is asking equal pay from Norway. It is an idealistic request financially. But, the request holds no merit fiscally. No one can argue the mens world cup is a far larger financial attracter than the womens. And no one can argue that outside the usa, every male flag team attracts more sponsorship than their comparative female flag team. Sequentially, giving money equally to females side males while ideal is not fiscally proportional to their events. What happens when the womens team of the usa don't succeed , don't even place in the world cup. That time is coming sooner than many think. The media can't dictate the law, it can't dictate financial evaluation. People tweeting equal pay should not apply in a court of law. People tweeting equal pay can not apply on fiscal ledger sheets. I know the womens game, it is not an equivalent money maker to the mens, whether people want to believe it or not, giving female flag players equal pay is unwarranted financially, at this time. IT will not be unwarranted one day, but for now it is. Secondly, the issue of USSoccer paying the salaries to uswnt players in the nwsl is troublesome to me. People online say ussoccer is being unfair and they are correct, they are being unfair, to male flag players who play in M.L.S.. Why can't ussoccer pay male flag players salaries too? USSoccer financially makes the NWSL possible, a league that is the third reincarnation of a project the NCAA/NFL accept, and that lead to my last point. The National Collegiate Athletic Association <NCAA> side the National Football League <NFL> are under reported, underrated players in soccer in the usa. I remember being a boy who wanted to play the beautiful game and I had no clue as to who was behind the scenes, in the control room, in ussoccer. If I had known I would had chose another sport more than likely to be part of.. and by another sport i mean golf. Anyway, the NCAA model is simple. One tier league granted the label of top tier supported by the NCAA's colleges of amateur, meaning non paid, athletes. THe NFL as the most potent fiscal league in the usa is the prime example, but the national basketball association NBA/ national haockey league NHL/ Major league baseball MLB <even though they have minor leagues they threw their role or potential away> Major league soccer MLS/ WNBA womens national basketball association all fit the same model. One tier league, no competition with another league of paid athletes domestically, feeder system run by the NCAA. The NCAA/NFL model hurts MLS/NWSL/WNBA each were created relatively recently and each don't have the near one hundred year history the other leagues have to support their sport which allow for the NCAA/NFL model to work. When the first womens league started I didn't like it's structure but I gave it a go. The Western new york flash I even supported. But, it failed and I blogged my suggestion for the future. The second womens league in the usa eventually failed and I blogged my suggestion for the future. Now at the NWSL, the third attempt at a womens soccer league in the usa, I repeat the need to change the way it works. Throw away the NFL/NCAA model. Too many teams in the NWSL are on false financial footing. Now, I will speak to solutions. Let us say, ussoccer is legally forced to pay female players the same as male players. They will have to stop paying the female players club salaries correct? If they don't then what will stop male players from arguing ussoccer need to pay their club salaries? After USSoccer stops paying female flag team players club salaries in the NWSL, what will happen to the NWSL? will the owners be able to pay for these players, like alex morgan or rapinoe who offer shirt sales or us media exposure to clubs outside the usa? I don't think so. And the NWSL is already far from the top of the list for the best female soccer players for destinations, once uswnt players are forced to go outside the usa for their salary what high profile players will be in the nwsl? I am certain even sam kerr will accept a move away , probably to a chinese club, when this fall happens. Thus the NWSL needs a change. IT can not survive forever on USSoccer paying its salaries and NCAA providing new talent. The NWSL needs to be restructured into fifty state leagues, a league for each state in the union. Once that is done, the clus in each league will reflect the fiscal investment or environment capable or wanting in each state, which will be varied. That will allow some states, I am thinking the northwest states, to have great growth. While states in the south or midwest may be far less in fiscal quality or passion. But, each club will be in their own close knit environment which will lower traveling cost, raise local media profile. The champions to each state league will face off in a new US Open cup format, for women , that will pit the champions against each other, in single elimination tournament, till the final where a champion alone exist. This structure will delete the need for NCAA's involvement while it will invite fiscal investment from non white/non male/non christian peoples in the usa to invest in womens clubs at their financial level. USSoccer can not financially handle paying uswnt players their club salary and bonuses equivalent to the usmnt. the NWSL can't survive without USSoccer paying those salaries. Something has to give, money doesn't grow on trees.

#Pia #Sundhage is the coach of the #Selecao - Historically this has many historical points. In the mens game, the Brasil football federation, < C.B.F. > do not allow non brasilians or non men to coach the masculin selecao or any team in the brasil serie a. Now the feminin selecao will have a non male/non brasilian coach. Historical precedence now place womens soccer in a different place in the consciousness of Brasil. If Sundhage succeed in bringing a trophy to Brasil in the world cup, then her tenure will be a huge success. I find the timing of this coaching signing aside the fact that the womens team will not have the stars the male team earned on their shirt telling. Sundhage I hope comprehend how important her tenure is. Conembol is the heart of latin america, a region that culturally remembers failures far more than successes. If sundhage fail badly, she will close the door to many non conmebol or female coaches in the future , not merely in brasil but in other conmebol countries as well. good luck pia.

#JeremyLin - It is an interesting feeling when you love what you do but you feel time will not allow you to fiscally benefit from doing it. The visual artists eventually losses vision. The dancer eventually losses flexibility. The athlete eventually losses firmness or reaction. Jeremy Lin has faced that place, I hope he did well with his finances. Though I will say the environment in the usa, sporting wise, goes against athletes long term career possibilities. Concerning his words or a reply from Real Life KAz stating, I paraphrase, "when it is done it is done" I commented "for all athletes that reached the making money stage, though the ny knicks as an organizations hinder all players that step through their doors" https://twitter.com/RealLifeKaz/status/1155515787966390280 LINKS https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/former-toronto-raptor-jeremy-lin-hits-new-rock-bottom-in-free-agency-144713809.html https://twitter.com/LFCFanClub3/status/1155505259260928003

#Fallonfox vs #TamikkaBrents and #Transgender in sports - The solution to the problem set by Fallon Fox side Tamikka Brents fight is simple. The problem with people considered or labeled transgender is the nature of thier physicality. An honest transformation into a woman is the question and in the world of athletics, that transformation has to be critiqued far more stricter than in other settings. If Fallon Fox worked in an office and Tamikka Brents did as well, then any competition they have will not have a disadvantage in physicality.But as two MMA fighters, the size of fallon fox compared to tamikka brents is not insignificant. PEople forget boxing allowed fighters of varying weight classes to fight each other originally but broke up into weight classes based on the damage brought on to smaller fighters by significantly larger ones. Brents is to small to fight Fox, plain or simple, that fight should not had been allowed. IN AMENDMENT My point is not to ban transgender as much as to demand strict weight class requirements, even with hormones, the modulation is not applicable to allow for equal weight or greater weight modulating gender athletes to face same weight or lesser weight unchanged gender athletes. MMA has to change its weight class rules or develop them. VIDEO

2019 German Grand Prix - #F1 @LEwisHamilton was leading then he had a bad turn off the slick turn that took out seven cars. Congratulations to Verstappen for winning the race and Vettel for ending second while starting 20th. I am happiest for Danil Kvyat a double victory, a father side a podium. It is a tough day for Mercedes especially at the home ground, but overall Hamilton is first, Bottas is second in the drivers championship. While Mercedes is undoubtedly the constructors leader with over 150 point lead. So, a bad day but in some way all the cars that had to exit the race from crashes, racing on a slick surface , prove why the german grand prix will not be in next season. Vietnam side Holland come in next season. Replacing two from Spain/Germany/Mexico with one from that trio possibly being unreplaced while not continuing for at least a season. The slick area is too much, some pundits said it is an unforgiving track but when ten of the twenty riders are influenced by the same curve, all varying in car strngth or riding quality, the issue is the track. I do not deny I am angered by Hamilton not winning, I think he was wrong to listen to the stewards when he was brought in the last time but the team will move on, learn from the lessons and be ready for Hungary. https://www.weibo.com/7030963893/HFBix6opd?from=page_1005057030963893_profile&wvr=6&mod=weibotime

#ATLETI later on and #Bale - ATLETI for me the great shame is this match is, can it happen during the regular season. The problem in the I.C.C. is those matches do not mean anything in the competitions that matter. Atleti in the past few seasons had a rough time against fc barcelona/real madrid in la liga. I hope Atleti can perform like this when it counts most against Real MAdrid. I hope :) WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED Felix is lucky:) Costa is the Aguja , the needle. Morata acts as a great partner to costa. Atleti's attack is sharper than ever. Now can it be consistent. Many smaller teams will bunker against Atleti. Real Madrid tend to put themselves in dangerous situations, sequentially, when they are down they tend to lose more not less. Atleti still have goals with costa out, a very important truth cause Costa will get card accumulation. His game stem from using that negative energy to boost his actions. IT lead to altercations. Courtois is learning how great Kaylor Navas is. Being a big man is cool but Courtois did not react, especially to that first goal from atleti, like courtois would had. He is too slow in reaction to be the keeper for a team that exposes itself defensively. BALE My problem isn't bale going to a chinese club, my problem is the club. Jiangsu Suning is a trap for Bale. Four clubs have won the chinese super league in the past 10 year from 2018- 2008 : Guangzhou evergrande with seven wins, Shanghai SIPG with one <the reigning champions>, Beijing Sinobo with one and Shandong Luneng with one. Jiangsu is the 11th biggest city in china? why is bale going to this provincial team. Jiangsu is like NApoli or Newcastle or Lille or Gladbach. A club that has some history, a decent fanbase, but isn't a big club especially in terms of lifting trophies. PEople say players go to chinese clubs for money but I disagree. Players dont choose the most effective chinese clubs and then complain when the adventure yields no result. Like Fekir going to Real BEtis, the reality is, Betis will win nothing so even though betis has the money and he accepts the deal, he is not going to a team that is a better bet to being top three in spain like Olympique Lyonnais is top three in france. Bale is leaving a sure top three club in spain for a team that only made the afc champions league three times in the past ten season and one from said time was through a cup run. People will say the move is money based but the money from Jiangsu isn't the issue. Bale need to figure how to get into Guangzhou or Shanghai. Jiangsu is like sevilla. YEah, good club. Fighting club. But not really that consistent top club. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OMtcsmrKkk

One Club Woman - Who is the most beloved one club woman to any club? @EtiennePic answered @offsidebeet lament that Olympique Lyonnais <O.L.> men don't have a one club man to place alongside the totti's or scholes with the fact that O.L. women have far more high quality one club women than any other womens team. I dont like greatest ever polls cause that is unachievable. No one is ever the greatest in all time at anything. But, someone can be the greatest in aa time frame. I say Wendie Renard @Wrenard is the most beloved one club woman in this era. She has won more than any other one club woman before her and is still going strong. If she can win the Euros she will have a complete career. She has won it all for a club, she needs to win something for a flag. What say you? https://twitter.com/OffsideBeet/status/1154822749073870849

#Blackstars of ghana - I agree with Akosua Addai Amoo < @akosuaamoo > that money is not the solution for The Black Stars. My Ghanaian connections ,including her, informed me many times over the many Ghanaian players that died fiscally absent. Akosua's article is a good read to comprehend how money became the sole factor in the Ghana football associations relationship to the Black Star team. Her solution is what I will speak on, domestic development. Youth development by default is the antithesis to fiscal profiteering in sport. Yes, a messi/pele/cruyff/maradona comes but any honest youth development system to youth from fiscally poor families is a fiscal loss long time, absent any doubt. In parallel, this is why in the USA, youth sports is structured the way it is. A structure designed to make the parents pay for the funding to have a youth development. This does two thing, it blocks out the fiscal poor kids in the USA, who are conveniently not white, while also covering the cost for the sports administrators organizing the system. To restate, those who control the sports system in the USA have an immovable position in the control room of the sports system in the USA while they push the cost of youth development in sport on parents. Ghana is a fiscally poor country, it doesn't have the populace to mirror the USA system. Sequentially those in charge of player development have to accept the fiscal drain of a positively structured youth development system in Ghana to mostly fiscally poor kids. Sadly, those in charge of the system in Ghana either are unwilling to change for their personal desire to make fiscal profit, or they don't have the imagination to modulate the system in Ghana to do it. I want to address another point she made, which is underrated in the relationship of modern sport to various governments around the earth. Ghana is not fiscally rich. And, the influence of being a fiscally poor country, in comparison to China/USA, is underrated. On the one hand being a fiscally poor country mean those who have control of the Ghana system are themselves fiscally poor or see in said control opportunity to make more profit. Media concerns or people in the USA talk about negative or wild fiscal capitalistic agenda's in the sports systems of countries like Ghana but I suggest it is totally unfair from those in the USA, a country whose fiscal history or modernity is rife with wild abuses, can look to those in Ghana as evil or sinners for trying to use what they can to make money. On the other hand, Ghana, like others, being a fiscally poor country mean they need to find ways to finance themselves that fiscally wealthy countries don't have to consider, thus are not advertised. Ghana administrators or clubs needs to use online crowdfunding. People from Ghana live all over the world, and can provide financing to projects, if the projects are designed in a fiscally open and no nonsense way. Sport crowdfunding can't work for salaries ofrcoffers but they can work to get fields or stadiums built, buy shoes/cleats or other materials. Ghana must be a Black Star and shine bright. article https://citisportsonline.com/2019/07/25/addai-amoo-writes-money-isnt-the-answer-for-the-black-stars/ referring tweet https://twitter.com/akosuaamoo/status/1154691726889619456
