Yup Weigman has shown how to get the best out of them.

He was atrocious

FC Sion on the verge of relegation 2-0 down after their playoff first leg, mind you the manager had made Balotelli captain at one point :joy:

I think this was the last straw

What most of the stories miss is that he had been flustered by questions relating to the fact the fans booed his son when he came on as a substitute - because the fans donā€™t think Harry has any business playing at that level

Does anybody know if any UK channels ever show Serie B matches?

Iā€™m guessing the answer is no they donā€™t, but thought Iā€™d check.

Mola the App does, noticed when I was looking for some Dutch games.

They also have Belgium league.

Their scouting/recruitment teamā€¦ :100:

Those prices say a lot about the buying clubs.

Looks like a soap opera opener for Benfica.

Di MarĆ­a puts them ahead on his return debut. Musa is sent off early in the second half. BoženĆ­k equalizes shortly after. Rafa Silva makes it 2-1 for Benfica in the 77th. LourenƧo scores a pen in the 90th to make it 2-2, only to get sent off himself 8 minutes later, and BoženĆ­k then gets the winner in the 103rd.

That is a really ill-spirited derby. Something like this happens all the time, though more often to fans than players.

Shameful. An actual president of a FC. I wait to see what the punishment will be.

I bet a fair few managers wouldnā€™t object to taking a swing at Howard Webb

Cowards assaulting him while heā€™s on the ground.

That is the sort of thing that needs a draconian response. Relegation down the pyramid to their League 3 (4th tier), not just to a level they might have earned on the pitch.

My question, is why did this happen. Context

97th minute equalizer, I suspect that says it all.

Hospitalised for decking a ref.

Was just reading an article on this when I came across the fact that Shelvey was on the pitch at the time. He is on loan at Rizesport from Forest. Sounds like he burned his bridges with Cooper at Forest.

Turns out it was Kloppā€™s fault.
