كرة القدم بالسبعينات قبل لا يخربها جوارديولا 🕊️

This is why nothing beats English football.

• I like your takes on life. How do you handle failure? I think future generations can learn from you, most of them are scared to fail. 🚨🗣️ 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Kompany: "The truth is, you need to be surrounded by good people when you are in difficult times. There are people around you that can help you. And you must also realize that everyone in life fails, the things that you are doing right now is your priority, but you have to remind yourself that life will go on whether you fail or succeed. Don't be afraid of failing and you will receive real power."

Hey Jude 🎶 Take a sad song & make it better. FULL STORY: FC Cincinnati’s Nick Hagglund promised to dedicate a goal celebration to a local kid fighting cancer — Jude Simmons. 9+ months later, Nick made true on his promise ⚽️ And Jude is now cancer free 🔔 #FCCincinnati @WCPO

Why the heck are players swapping shirts before the end of the match. Liverpool are 4-0 down, have some pride in your performance and for the badge. Some pro players don’t set good examples anymore

Praise from Head Coach Pat Noonan. 🔸🔹

Salah, Firmino and Mané were UNSTOPPABLE when they played together at Anfield.

“Stop judging talent; start observing character” This is where I think traditional Talent ID gets it so, so wrong. Obsessed with the here and now, neglecting understanding the soft skills, the unseen, the potential.

“You can be the best manager in the world with the best coaching set-ups, but if you do not have a relationship with players in this day and age, you will get found out." Phil Jones | @Rovers First Team Coach 🔗trainingground.guru/phil-jones-lee…

I was flying Southwest from Dallas to New York. Three rows ahead of me, there was a young soldier in uniform. He looked barely 18. He was staring straight ahead, gripping the armrests. He looked nervous. When the drink cart came around, the flight attendant asked him what he wanted. 'Coke, please,' he said. 'Heading home?' she asked kindly. 'No, ma'am,' he said. 'Deploying. First time.' The whole row went quiet. The flight attendant didn't say a word. she handed him his Coke. Then, she got on the PA system. 'Ladies and gentlemen, we have a very special guest in Row 8 today. Private Miller is on his first deployment to serve our country. Since I can't buy him a drink, I’m going to ask a favor. If you want to write him a note of encouragement, pass it forward.' I grabbed a napkin. I wrote: 'You got this. Stay safe. - A dad from Row 12.' I watched as napkins traveled up the aisle. Napkins, receipts, pages torn from books. By the time we landed, the soldier had a pile of paper on his tray table three inches high. He stood up to get his bag, and he was wiping his eyes. He carefully packed every single scrap of paper into his rucksack. 'Thank you,' he told the flight attendant. 'No,' she said. 'Thank you.' We all walked off that plane a little quieter, reminded that freedom is just a word until you meet the kid who is defending it. Credit: Margie Lee

Tony Pulis spent almost a year filming a documentary series for Sky Sports called "Chasing the Dream," investigating the academy system in English football. What he found should concern every coach and parent involved in youth football. 91% of young players in academies never play a professional game, but it's what happens to them after they're released that he thinks needs urgent attention. I've broken down his key points in the comments 👇

Rute Cardoso paid a heartfelt tribute to Diogo Jota by running a 10km Father’s Day race in Porto, proudly wearing his No.20 🏃‍♀️❤️ A beautiful way to remember him 🔴

Called Up 🇺🇸 FCC Academy forward, Ryan Schlotterbeck heads to training camp, where the U15 US National Team will face Cyprus and England in the coming week.

I feel like I’ve been living under a rock and in case anyone else has been living there with me, you REALLY have to watch the Limitless with Chris Hemsworth documentary series.

Nine days after Ibrahima Konate's father sadly passed away, the Liverpool centre-back was in tears following his goal vs Newcastle. 😢💔 Alisson ran the length of the pitch to hug Konate, having also lost his father back in 2021. 🫂 A truly beautiful moment. ❤️

Harsh words to create a culture. And you know he will drop any player who doesn’t meet this standard.

Pep Guardiola says he learned an important lesson in England: the more days off he can give his players, the better. In a congested calendar, training more isn’t always the answer. Sometimes, the real work is recovery. • Tight schedules demand freshness • Players need to disconnect • Time with family matters • Mental rest improves physical performance “Forget football for a moment. I’ll work for them.” Because players don’t need to be tired in training. They need to arrive fresh on matchday. Rest isn’t weakness. It’s preparation.
