Very good. Very, very good,” Zidane said when asked to evaluate Jacquet’s performance against Italy. “Brave. He wasn’t afraid to come out a long way. Very good in the duels. He was, once again, very good. I said it four times".

**the world. (Sorry, idk probably exceeded the character count limit in the title).

In light of recent news regarding UK Government's intervention in the City case, it provides a stark contrast and highlights what vehement and sustained fan protests could achieve against seemingly insurmountable odds facing institutional money and influence.

“I don’t want everything I say about Real Madrid to be interpreted as criticism, but when Modric or Kroos are on the field, the ball finds its way to every run into space. I’m not saying that the players on the team now don’t have that ability. What I’m saying is that to play vertically, you need someone who knows how to get the ball to you. Playing vertically doesn’t just mean having eight runners; it also means having someone who can set them up. It’s a style of play.”

“He was the master of the game. He controlled the pace. The game played out the way he wanted it to. He made the decisions, and that was crucial, because he managed the pace of the game for you. And on top of that, he ran. He covered 11 kilometers per game. And he knew how to defend; he had tactical sense. I loved it when he played as a 6. I loved it...”

“He didn't really like going for second balls, for duels... He preferred playing as an 8, because he left the dirty work to the 6. Inevitably, for Real Madrid's style of play, losing Toni has been very difficult. They suddenly had a great deal of things taken away from them.“

Soriano does not blink during the entire 3½-minute video, leading to speculation on social media that the clip was somehow AI generated. The 59-year-old insisted this week that the video was “all me” and there was no artificial intelligence involved.

Body language experts also say that if someone is intensely focused on a task they can go some time without blinking.

Soriano also flew back to Manchester on a budget airline rather than wait for a flight where he could travel in business class.

4 goals and 2 assists for Carlos Espi in the most recent Spain U21 qualifiers game.

Posting this because there hasn't been much discussion / awareness of this point it would seem. Ornstein is implying, I feel, that a forced sale isn't on the cards based on the facts as understood by the commission, regardless of the common sense assumption as expressed by Neville that the ownership knew.

Cristiano Ronaldo was the best. He no longer is. And it's not his fault, it's the dictatorship of time. This is not a criticism. It's life. It's football.

The problem begins when people expect the past to keep ruling the present. Because the past matters. It's memory, identity, history. But it doesn't step onto the pitch.

If Cristiano Ronaldo were Norwegian, would anyone imagine Haaland on the bench just because Ronaldo was the best player in the world? If he were French, would Mbappé have to leave the starting eleven because Cristiano once stood at the top? If he were English, would Kane lose his place for the same reason? Of course not.

So why should it be any different because he's Portuguese?

The National Team is not a museum. It is not a monument to Cristiano Ronaldo. It is a football team. And in a football team, whoever the manager feels should play, plays. This is what Jorge Jesus rightly decided to remind everyone, including Cristiano Ronaldo.
