Squads change sometimes depending on injuries/rests, all the same 25 player squads though.. And finally someone else who likes Drogba, i love the guy :D

you are not alone :D ive been fan of drogba since 2004/2005 when he started at chelsea :D the man is a monster

Referee Claus Bo Larsen has named Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo his 'most annoying player'.

Claus Bo Larsen took charge of Milan's defeat to Ajax on Wednesday

The FIFA Top Class Referee, who took charge of his final Champions League game on Wednesday, claims Ronaldo is always looking to buy free-kicks and that they have to be prepared for his behaviour ahead of Champions League games.

"He's always out to get a cheap free-kick, especially at home," he told Ekstra Bladet. "We tended to talk before games about how he'd go down easily.

"We know not to be biased, but we have to be prepared. He has a clean slate at the start of every game. When he would lie down after failing to win a free-kick, he smiled at me because he knew I didn't fall for his theatrics."

So they know... huh.gif

Am I the only one quite worried about referees going into games with preconcieved opinions?

Obviously we all know that certain players (Ronaldo and Drogba to name two) are more inclined to fall over rather than stay on their feet, but is it really fair that refs go into games expecting this? I know you could say its just a case of the boy who cried wolf (and he does say that players get a "clean slate" for every match, but its still a bit worrying IMO.

It is inevitable, until the day when robots start refereeing

Or FIFA/UEFA and all continental organisations finally enter the 21st century and accept the change technology can bring to the game.. does it make rugby, Cricket, Tennis, American football or any other game boring or any less interesting? No! It brings fairness to the game.. it's very easy for Fifa to write.. Fair play on their ads but they are doing absolutely nothing to ensure it.. more refs will not do anything.. they are also human.. what if one lines man says its a goal and other says its not? The only way to eliminate doubt is technology.. atleast have a certain number of challenges per game that the team captain or manager can make when he feels they are being cheated..

Gattuso is a joke. He should have see red in about every game I've seen him play. Flamini deserved red too for a stupid and dangerous tackle.

Great win for Totenham, and trully deserved.

I couldn't agree more. Officials were far too lenient, but at least they got the right call in injury time. I can't wait for the sideshow at White Hart Lane.

    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.
    • How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.
    • 🤦🏻‍♂️ No, expected because 10 EOL
    • Dude, it's a .reg away from a permanent modification. If you're a power user, look it up and keep the .reg and stop being a crybaby expecting MS to include customization for everything on a generalist OS. The default is what's the best UX for the majority of the userbase, non techie people.
