Sydney Leroux was a star for the US womens team in the 2010s and after joining Orlando married our English striker, Dom Dwyer. He got a couple of caps with the US after naturalizing but he’s back in league one now so wasnt exactly holding up his end of the elite genetics bargain.

What pseudo genetic engineering science that Adolf was a fan of doesn’t work?

I have to say that the little turn to eugenics in this thread has made me a bit queasy.

Just the idea of breeding elite athletes like they were racehorses.

As you may know, I follow horse racing closely. People have been breeding the best to the best for centuries; very rarely do the offspring match the lofty expectations.
Given advancements in gene editing and sequencing, however, it’s only a matter of time until “superbabies” are created.

Well I know from dogs, that when their family tree is more like a stick, the brain goes down the toilet.

I think the footballing offspring should tell you enough about it to suggest it’s pseudo claptrap.
There are very few sons who reached the level of their fathers or grandfathers. You have examples of course.

I think Sergio Aguero’s father in law was Maradonna. I hope Hughes is on it!

No idea how reliable they are but a local Stuttgart rag claiming we’re interested in Angelo Stiller

We were interested in him last summer after Zubimendi decided to stay in Spain.
Stiller recently extended his contract.
Think a move could still happen if Stuttgart fails to beat 2nd tier side Bielefeld in the Cup final which would mean they miss out on Europe.
Wouldn’t rule out Stuttgart being interested in bringing Endo back by the way.

We’ve been here before the lad had a cleft lip/palate.
Though his nose is big to be fair.

Rude! Looks like a Dominik Szoboszlai doppelganger.
Looks like he has a cleft palate, so not Ideal to poke fun, I know it is said without malice though.
And he is still better looking than Cole Palmer, that haircut just NO!!!

That controlled left foot of his and vision reminds me of Redondo. He’s one reason I like watching Stuttgart
He has been discussed here before. And crass comments on his appearance have been addressed.
Imagine if he signs for us? Will you still be a cunt about how he looks?
