@iiamShinji @FrankEra_ @ihatemyclub No, but kids wanted to be like him at that in point in time, because he was a big young talent.

@FrankEra_ @ihatemyclub Walcott was on the cover of FIFA 10. Was he ever a world class player?

Seven FIFA covers in a row featuring Wayne Rooney. Everybody wanted to be like him. Fool.

@KenZ0oooo @TheArsenalTom @user007321 Now why do you think they chose Rooney to be the cover star for so long? You don't get chosen to share the cover of a massive football game with Ronaldinho for no reason

@TheArsenalTom @user007321 Been on FIFA cover is about contract agreement not players ability

No one grows up and says I want to become like Wayne Rooney.

📣COACH WELCOME - 3:25pm📣 Saturday’s coach greeting v Chelsea is a trial run, as it will be the first time we are testing this setup. The route the coach will take is quite restricted. It will travel down Walter Street, turn right onto Regent Road, and then proceed into Nelson Dock. The route is very similar to the one we took at Goodison down City Road, onto Goodison Road 🔵⚪️The coach is expected to arrive at approximately 3:25pm.🔵⚪️ We are encouraging all fans who wish to attend to line Regent Road - where this is marked blue on the map - ensuring there is sufficient space for the coach to pass through safely (please refer to the attached map). As this is a trial, your cooperation and support are greatly appreciated and will help shape any future coach greetings. Please note that the club will be hosting a welcome event on the plaza, with further details from the club to be announced later this evening. UP THE TOFFEES

@atoloos @traitorrightsss @Nasir_04__ @taiwoalabiho2 @biolakazeem They don't apply later, as they only apply IF the ref calls the match abandoned, which never happened. The match resume meaning Senegal never forfeited.

@traitorrightsss @Nasir_04__ @taiwoalabiho2 @biolakazeem The regulations apply instantly or later, it doesn't matter if the the Moroccan team accepted to continue the match or not, You don’t get to break the rules, come back when it suits you, and then complain when the law is enforced. That’s not how football works.

A team walks off the pitch in a AFCON Final for 10 minutes & you support that because of misplaced sense of victimhood? The referee got BOTH calls right & Senegal walking off the pitch was a profane insult to all African football stands for. Well done to CAF!

@sana8163 @Gideoomatic Only the rule that was broken would require the ref to have called the game abandoned, which never happened. The ref let the match play on, therefore they never forfeited.

@Gideoomatic They deadass stated the fucking rules that were broken by senegal but ofc you'll just play the victim card because that's what you were raised to do

So basically, they ignored the rules and just pulled a 'win' out of nowhere to give to Morocco. This is next level

@Crylulz @z18babymenks @KuleK39462 @MezahiMaher And yet, the ref gave them permission to play on when they came back out. The ref didn't call the match abandoned, therefore they never forfeited the match

@z18babymenks @KuleK39462 @MezahiMaher Yes, the Senegalese left the field without the referee's permission, so they lost.

The precedent the CAF Appeals Board tried to set tonight is that refereeing errors during a match can be overturned after the match by disciplinary committees and appeals boards It's too much of a slippery slope for CAS not to annul their ruling

@YOW_MCG @MezahiMaher @YacineBabouche Only it wasn't, as the match continued on into extra time. It wasn't a forfeit as the ref never called the match abandoned

@MezahiMaher @YacineBabouche Except this was a forfeit - not a goal. There are clear rules. This isn't subjective.

Senegal midfielder Idrissa Gueye has responded to the news that their AFCON 2025 title has been awarded to Morocco.

🇸🇳💙

@perxy29 @chrisJS03_ @footballontnt Not if Senegal appeal it, which they can and should. The referee allowed the game to continue, therefore the match was never forfeited.

@chrisJS03_ @footballontnt It is clearly how it works and they clearly can just change the result Looks like your whole tweet is incorrect

🚨 Morocco have been declared AFCON champions! CAF have overturned the final result and award a 3-0 win, with Senegal ruled to have forfeited.

@OllyBausor The why is Senegal walked off after the penalty was given, so they're classing that as violating Article 82 (refusing to play/leaving the ground without the refs authorisation). They've then added Article 84, which is that violating A82 results in a 3-0 Forfeit. It's corruption

They've not even made it clear why, it's that dodgy! There's more in there about the conduct of a Morrocan player than the Senegalese! Might be the actual most corrupt thing I've heard in my lifetime... 🤣🤣🤣 Senegal are the real champions 👍🏻👍🏻

Whilst we’re at it…

Kills me everytime

@davidm176 @Iancroll1 You mean the away fans with their inflatable dinosaurs? 😂

@Iancroll1 Which bit? The idiot tied to the goalpost or the away fans getting stripped of bottle tops but the home fans lending knives to stewards AND GETTING IT BACK?

🗓️ Four years ago today. One of the maddest nights Goodison Park has ever witnessed.

@CharlC1878 @Iancroll1 The fucking bolt cutters 😂😭

@Iancroll1 Couldn’t believe my eyes
