So hilarious what y’all pick n choose matters. A certain somebody skipped the World Cup because he wouldn’t be full strength and everyone seemingly understood that decision. Why should Richards come at all?

And the whole denigrating cups for clubs thing lmao. Dude is a game away from being a palace legend but since the badge isn’t bright and shiny, club accomplishments don’t count anymore.

@KnowerOfBans The Cardoso thing is being blown of proportion we don’t know any details and those headlines are chasing clicks He could “play at the WC”? How? It required surgery, had torn ligaments, he’s gonna be out for months might not even be ready next season You think he’s fit for a WC?

@KnowerOfBans If u don’t understand the difference between a knee surgery and a sprained ankle u shouldn’t be talking abt sports

@KnowerOfBans Yes, the conference league is much more important than the World Cup. He’s had a great season at palace, it’s not like he’s sitting out weeks or months to save himself. It’s one game after a great season, while having an actual injury threatening his World Cup chances

@KnowerOfBans Bro said he’s gonna be a club legend for a conference league that was made up in recent years. He shouldn’t play in a game they’ll win without him which could cost him the World Cup. It’s not even close to deciding to have surgery, Richards is seemingly cleared to play.

@KnowerOfBans So disingenuous and almost have to be a retard to not understand one is a brittle fella and the other is not. I just can’t bring myself to judge a man who knows what potentially lies ahead if he risks it.

@KnowerOfBans I'm not getting what the argument is here? If all injuries were the same, then I guess I can see an argument but I'm not sure what is being argued here.

@KnowerOfBans If Richards was in Cardoso shoes he would probably not take the surgery and play in the WC. It just means more to guys that aren’t dual nats. Look at Marcel Ruiz. Dude has partial ACL tear and is playing hoping he still gets a spot.

@KnowerOfBans We know why. It all boils down to the group of fans upset Roldan and Berhalter will be on the roster. Cordoso was their golden child, never mind his habitually shit performances. They'll excuse the fact he CLEARLY puts club>country because anything otherwise hits their ego.

@KnowerOfBans 1 is an injury that doesnt seem serious (50/50 to play in a week) over an injury that was going to take 6 or more weeks to recover from

@KnowerOfBans If his ankle injury could threaten his career, I’d understand if he bowed out. But if not, and they think they can get him back in time…then that’s on him and his doctor. I’ve played on twisted ankles. Probably wasn’t the smartest thing tho especially if I had a cracked bone.

@KnowerOfBans Your inability to decipher between varying degrees of injuries is staggering

@KnowerOfBans funniest shit of all time, when will richards be able to play in a European final ever again? if he can play its up to him

@KnowerOfBans The only reason the conference league exists is to extract more money from people. I want palace to win. I hope Richards is fit for both the final and the World Cup. To even mention this competition in the same breath as a World Cup is the most nonsensical thing.

@KnowerOfBans I don’t think this is fair. I know you’re not Cardoso’s biggest fan, but he’s had recurring injuries all season. Getting surgery was the best option because he will fully recover from his discomfort and will be available for future important games.

@KnowerOfBans Cardoso injury seemed more intense

@KnowerOfBans The racism is wild in us soccer and doesn’t look like it’s going to change

@KnowerOfBans Does Richard’s need surgery?
