Football

An interesting analysis of Chelsea's difficulties and especially about the role of Enzo Maresca. What I found particularly interesting was this piece of analysis:

"It is perhaps instructive that Chelsea have the second-highest xG in the league, according to Opta, and have underperformed it by 3.72 goals, which suggests their chance creation is on the right track. Against that, the dynamism of their football has regressed since the first half of the season."

"6.Each kicker can kick the ball only once. Once kicked, the kicker may not play the ball again. The decision on a re-kick is solely at the referee's discretion."

Sanfrecce Hiroshima won the first leg 6-1, but were found to have fielded a player who was serving a suspension in Asian competition due to his actions at his previous club. It was turned into a 3-0 win for Lion City Sailors, who managed a 1-1 draw at home in the second leg. Just AFC things.

Alternate angle: https://fmkorea.com/8125223116

While the tie already felt decided after the 3:0 win in the first leg, a win on aggregate of 5:0 for Bayern really cements the German pecking order that had been disturbed last season. Obviously missing Florian Wirtz is not ideal, but Leverkusen really did not look like turning the tie around at any point, in my opinion.

I don't think there's ever been a manager who described his team as: "We are the worst team maybe in the history of Manchester United."

While I'm unsure about his long term future at United, he certainly is entertaining with his honesty.

Oh my fucking god! Are you stupid? Does Samir Shah even like football? WTF?

Jonathan Wilson elegantly describes why many, myself included, have been falling out of love with modern football, little by little. The best part of the article describes it really well, in my opinion:

"Those traditional fans have gradually seen the sport their families have perhaps supported for generations change. (...) Lip service is paid to fans and their devotion, but increasingly they are exploited and marginalised and their importance to the club is diminished."

Although this is most likely not at all a political decision, it's great to see Liverpool go for a European kit provider. It's only fitting that Europe's (arguably) currently strongest team will play in outfits designed and provided by a European company.

This is the weekly discussion thread for all things loosely related to football that may not warrant its own post.

United unexpectedly managed to get a draw from their match against Arsenal. Ruben Amorim had announced that his team "just need to survive" before the match, following Arsenal's thrashing of PSV in the Champions League earlier in the week. Surprisingly, survive they did and even took a point from the currently second best team in the League.
