The hopeful football/soccer thread

[Sir Darius the Clairvoyent]

I realize this is below many of you (  ) but I’d like to chat a little if it’s of interrelated to you. Some topics could be: mbappes form, what on earth is happening to City and will united ever get its s together? But as all good convos it is open format: bring up whatever you’d like.

I’m a Chelsea fan but there’s nothing hopeful about that

I’m a Spurs fan and this brings nothing but false hope and despair 😀

Amorim was very good at Sporting Lisbon but the problems he faces at United I think may well be too much ( but I hope not).

I acknowledge I'm posting about the wrong football but I'm really excited to see the Baltimore Ravens win the AFC North division and finish the season as 3rd seed moving in to the NFL playoffs. Tomorrow evening they play their longstanding rival, the Pittsburgh Steelers, in Baltimore for the first elimination round. While I think we have a better team overall than Pittsburgh, we always struggle with them so tomorrow is likely to be a nail biter.

 

Go Ravens!

Always dug The Ravens and their defensive minded culture.  Probably because I'm a life long Viking fan raised on the Purple People Eaters with Carl and Alan back in 'the day'.

 

While I haven't watched but a handful of games in the last 14 years... My Son has recently brought me back and after seeing Jackson and Henry having their literal way with the Steelers defense today... wow!   That was a clinic in running schemes mixed with play action.  A Ravens Vikings superbowl would be a really fun win win day.

My wife is more of a fan than me but it was a great game and well deserved win. I’ve been a bit of a Vikings fan since childhood and agree a Ravens - Vikings superbowl would be a blast.
