When Brecel (the young Belgian you refer to) won his first ranking event (2017 China Open) he barely got a mention at the end of the sports segment of the evening news. I love it though, been watching since I was a teenager. This years Championship was spectacular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he needs to get someone like Terry Griffiths on his coaching team to get his shot selection sorted. He does have a tendency to take on high risk shots at the wrong time. Very talented and I'm surprised he hasn't won more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 Tuchel takes the PSG job. I didn't see that coming, i am not convinced he can deal with the massive ego's in that dressing room. Also his CL/EL record is a lot worse than Emery's, so i'm not sure what they are thinking in terms of what he brings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Chelsea owner Abramovich has an expired Visa. Filed his paperwork on time, UK just holding it up, couldn't go to the Final because he was in Russia and can't enter the country. Could be due to that russian agent getting attacked they are fighting back? http://www.espn.com/soccer/club/chelsea/363/blog/post/3506137/chelsea-owner-roman-abramovichs-visa-issues-explained-should-fans-be-worried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only issue is at Sevilla monchi stacked the team full of talent, he just managed. At PSG they already had the talent. At arsenal he will need to be involved in the transfers and who to bring in, I’m not sure if he has skill there. it will be interesting to say the least.

Elston Gunnn Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 Don’t want to start separate thread, but I just saw something that surprised and troubled me. Was checking ESPN3 to see if I’d be able to get tonight’s friendly between France and RoI. They were showing an international youth cup (U-14) from California. One team - repeat: U-14 - was sponsored by ....... Bud Light. Huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
