i’m glad to see debruyne is doing well, i was a big fan of his during his bundesliga years, while you guys only had bad memories of his chelsea days
im not glad for pep, he’s more interesting when he suffers— but i read this morning (old news) that the man city payroll had gone up 25% under him. so— it’d better work.
not suprised that liverpool’s defence is floundering— it’s kloppo after all! same trajectory as in dortmund. o well. it’s nietzsche’s eternal return.

I don't really have any memories of DeBruyne at Chelsea as he hardly played. I never followed him in Germany either so, tbh, my real introduction to him was at Man City. Either way he's on fire there now and Pep seems to have found a system where him and other key players can now really shine. That clip H8kurdt linked is what they're doing to teams time and time again this season. Plus Pep seems to have tightened things up at the back too.
As for Klopp, talk at the moment is about how (shock horror) he appears to have made a tactical change (!!!) - from a possession based 4-3-3 to what's being described as a more counterattacking 4-4-2/4-2-2-2 hybrid. We've yet to see how successful it is (especially in terms of bolstering the defence) or if he even sticks with it, but it does at least show he's not completely stuck in his ways.
In other news, Hope Solo has accused Sep Blatter of squeezing her bum at some award ceremony. It's being described as a sexual assault. I'm not sure about that but it does look like the fallout post-Weinstein is just gonna build and build.
