Why isn’t Casemiro the captain in Ancelotti’s team? Marquinhos is a fraud

So far, Ancelotti has done everything correct.
Started Estêvão without stressing him.
Set Bruno further forward.
If anything, he should drop Casemiro and bed in a more progressive player. Idk, Pablo Maia.

I now think there's a good chance he whips a team into shape for the WC, and the hue meltdown will be very funny if he wins the WC.

>Le Mans
Utter shite, horrible, burn them down
>t. turo-angevin in exile
In all seriousness, the club was actually part of an interesting project that has been completely memoryholed. Insurance company MMA, historically from Le Mans, had plans with the city to expand on the reputation of the area based on the 24h race and turn Le Mans into an event epicenter for the west of the country, between Paris and Nantes, to compete with the scene-heavy Angers and Tours. A lot was invested into building a new huge stadium and increasing the club's scope. The stadium had France's first naming contract for a sport venue, calling it the MMArena. IIRC it was not the first in Europe but not that far. And now naming contracts for stadiums are all over the place. The full project did not pan out that well : Le Mans played 6 seasons in Ligue 1 IIRC, dropped and kept dropping. They're back in Ligue 2 for the first time in years and plays in a mostly empty oversized stadium.
>Montpellier
One of the last family-owned clubs though that is now starting to be an issue. Had a miracle run just as PSG was bought up by the qatari and then firmly stood in the middle of the table. hings eroded over time and they just got relegated to Ligue 2. Have a stadium in notoriousy bad shape.
>Nancy-Lorraine
Wenth through the whole gauntlet recently : historical club in its area, had some good times in the past decades. Got bought up and things went south, DNCG made things worse... And somehow they are now bouncing and regenerating. Not that long ago, a lot of the owners sold their shares leaving the club with only two owners who decided to invest more. The club called back historical coach Pablo Correa and they are climbing their way back to the top, who know where they will stop? Just a few seasons abo with Pedretti as their coach it looked like they would be a fallen giant but things are looking up now.

>Pau FC
Another historical rugby town. Except the project to make Pau a football town too is a lot older. in the 90s, there were big plans and huge spendings to try and brute-force promotion. It did not work, the club went through several insolvencies and had to start all over. RIght now, they are somewhat stable in Ligue 2. They've changed stadium a lot and right now play in the smallest venue in pro french football, one of the smallest in the pro circuits in Europe with just 4000 seats. They call it the Nouste Camp. Cheeky.
>Red Star
Historically the workers' club of the parisian area. So historical infact that its name and imagery actually predate the use of the red star as a symbol by communists.It has had a lot of ups and downs in its long history and right now it's in a weird spot. It is a historically blue collar club that is owned by an american corporation but it's still struggling as a yo-yo club between Ligue 2 and National. Some oldheads have been complaining about the club becoming gentrified with some detached "supporters" coming towards it for political reasons more than anything. They climbed back up to Ligue 2 last season and spent most of it in a relegation battle.
>Reims
One of the fallen giants of french football. They were THE dominant club in the 50s with five titles between 1949 and 1960 and two cups and they made the final of the first edition of the champion's league in 56. Bad financial decisions in the 80s led to insolvancy in 91 and the club has been rebuilding ever since. They used to have the oldest supporter organizations in France IIRC the Allez Reims group started in the 1930s, but was dissolved after the club went bankrupt. It was retooled into the still existing Ultrem group.
>>
>Rodez
We've talked about them with Annecy. They are pretty stable in the mid to lower part of the Ligue 2 table, having been there for 6 seasons or so. It's nice to see them here because Rodez is a small town in a part of the south-south-west that is more of a rugby territory. Still very much a small-town club and happy to be one, known for its cordial supporters : they are not even trying to grow any sort of ultra movement, it's just not going to work in a place that has more of a rugby influence and it's more fun to have a beer with the visiting team's kop. Constantly on a shoestring budget even on the Ligue 2 scale. Fun fact : Zidane is one of the clube's shareholder.
>ASSE
The eternal question is : will they be able to climb up this season? And if not, how hard will we laugh at them?
>Troyes/ESTAC
The city of Troyes has had several pro clubs to do fairly well and then explode or be forced to merge. The current club, ESTAC, started in the late 80s and had some good days in the early 2000s going so far as to win an Intertoto cup. And then it's been changes in ownership, ups and downs between Ligue 1 and 2 with some catastrophic relegations followed by complete domination over the second division. They've been bought up by the City Group and contrary to what one might think, it did not help the club get better, if anything it's been throwing it into a bad downward spiral. They were supposed to be relegated in 23 but stayed up because Bordeaux was administratively relegated instead. They gave Jean-Marc Furlan his first pro gig as a coach. If you know, you know.

>>150619268
comfy stadium
>>
>>150619701
I've been there for an event and it's a pretty nice stadium.
It's just really, REALLY oversized for the club.
Even in Ligue 1, they averaged at 10k in their 25k capacity venue. They've almost filled it for their promotion playoff game and that was the first time they got close to full capacity.

>>
Impressed to see you know who they are which can only mean one thing. You have to go back.

What went wrong?

Has a SINGLE 90m+ transfer ever even come close to being as justified as Ronaldo's? Which, by the way, was already seen as crazy absurd for a player at the time, even though he had just won the BdO, CL, PL and golden boot and was entering his prime at 24 years old. Now clubs are paying 100m+ for unproven talents less than 22yo. Is it all money laundering?

Ronaldo waited 22 months before winning his first trophy with madrid (copa del meme vs barca in 2011).
The GOAT debate might have settled in his favor had he stayed in the Prem, but instead he chose to farm eibar and Messi was just better at it.

There was definitely something dodgy about that Felix transfer. Atletico never spend anything near that kind of money but the only time they do is for a Mendes shitter..

after like 10 threads about this guy finally caved in and watched some compilations and checked the stats of this guy who i had never heard of before and yeah and stuttgard can sleep tight and comfy, it's not like they've been forced to sell a young ibra or anything, he's just another average striker.
just pocket the money, find someone similar for like 15 million and let bongs paypiggy your cheap match day tickets

There's no global market for Barcelona vs GreasyDiveDago FC or Bayern vs Commieblockslautern FC.

The spending doesn't matter either. Nottingham Forest could play Everton just with British & Irish players, and be more of a spectacle than some random game in Spain or Germany with all the Latin American superstars.

"It was an indirect free kick, the ball had to be touched twice for the goal to be valid, the kicker shot it directly and since the ball didn’t touch anyone, it couldn’t be counted as a goal, the goalkeeper knows the rules better than 80% of the players."
