Palfy Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 I had a couple of goes at Spainish lessons and failed miserably, as British we are so lucky that English is spoken by so many people in countries around the world, or maybe not has it made us lazy because when we visit other countries we rely on them to speak to us in English.

That's for when you're traveling sort of near Spain but not quite Spain. Spain-ish Formby, Romey 1878, Palfy and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spain-ish Been there, very southern tip of France on the Med coast, Pyrénées-Orientales; they identify very much as Catalan rather than French (have bull fighting as well). But then Catalans want independence from Spain so maybe a bit of a stretch Bloody lovely area though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Catalan region banned bull fighting in 2011 for cultural reasons, believing it to be a Spanish tradition, and as you said they don’t class themselves as Spanish. Bull fighting is still widely practiced in mainland Spain where some matador’s enjoy hero status. Where I had my first Villa the traveling bull fighting rink use to come to the town once a year during the town’s biggest fiesta, a huge round high walled wooden structure. I was always curious to see what it was like inside but never felt at ease with the practice so didn’t go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Arsenal supposedly interested in him. Even if it's true I don't see him wanting to go there, he'll have his eyes on a much bigger move than that. London Blue and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madrid actually aren't, they're in a pretty healthy financial position. He'd suit them far better than Barca as well, I don't see Xavi viewing Richarlison as suitable for the game he'll want them to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know that, we were there in 2006; looked round the bullring in Céret but wouldn't have gone to an actual fight. My dad was taken by a client once and he said it was sickening. (Actually reading up on it it still happens in France despite the Catalonia ban, you'd think they'd have fallen in line. Also the Catalan ban was overturned by the Spanish government in 2016) Palfy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Just watched an 'on the ball' focus of him on the Everton YouTube channel. He really did battle yesterday more than I've seen him do for a long time. What a performance. He also seemed more team oriented than in previous month's. That goal meant the world to him and I think he really enjoyed it. But also hats off to Demari for the brilliant shot to set him up. He's really got a good range of shooting on him and shifts the ball beautifully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiggytop Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 I enjoyed that ! His second goal was very cooly taken, shame it was scratched off. Easy to see why Arsenal were linked with him, albeit lazy journalism once again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
