Endrick's mistakes

Young J Swagger of sportsburstfans asked a question

What do you guys think Endrick should do?

My reply…

I said he sould had never came to Real Madrid in the first place… Young… he came to Real Madrid because of alot of media feces. He got game, come on young, you know how it goes, It might feel good, it might sound a little sumin but damn the game, if it ain't sayin nothin

Real Madrid Atletico Madrid FC Barcelona Atletico Bilbao … ALL CLUBS ARE THE SAME… feces. I can imagine, Endrick's girlfriend , mom , dad, cousin geb, the best friend in the oyuth ranks, all supporting the move, players are human, hey , what do you think? is an even question for a human being to ask anther human being whom they trust. The problem is, sports teams have long since mastered the ability of getting everyone around a player to support them . Finding you new friends to support them. Players are money, and clubs wants players to aid that club, but all clubs are worthless at heart feces. The key for ALL players is looking out for yourself and that means you want three things THE MOST MONEY cause you never know when your career is over, and no fan or club looks out for you A COMPETITIVE SQUAD ACROSS ALL COMPETITIONS TO JOIN that the team can pay for, cause you never win anything alone, so you need the best teammates and they are rarely cheap and never cheap to hold AN HONEST ROLE FOR YOU IN THE SQUAD you need a spot to start, if you have to battle, it is no good. The second any player earns a starting position on a mature side, A18 Above 18 then they should never ever transfer to the bench.

When Endrick left Palmeiras as a Starter from their youth system, did Real Madrid pass the three test? No. Real Madrid could do 1+2. But Real Madrid couldn't do 3. No go.

IN AMENDMENT Frederico Pena is the agent to Vini + Endrick… I am starting to comprehend what is going on here. An agent who isn't the biggest has two stars at Real Madrid, and doesn't want them to leave and has a network around each to keep the convincing going. Real Madrid led by Perez want as many stars as possible while also wanting said stars to accept less than market value for their labor time. The club and agents aren't interested in what is best for Vini or Endrick and neither player is a Zlatan type who is very vocal and adamant their way or the highway. hmmm Articles https://www.sportbible.com/football/football-news/endrick-real-madrid-transfer-premier-league-chelsea-brazil-007622-20240726

Millonarios v Palmeiras, Copa Suramericana, Bogotá, 23rd October 2012.

It was a tough decision to go to this game - watching a team in blue and white is against my religion, unless I'm spending 90 minutes screaming abuse at them.

However, Brazilian football doesn't generally come knocking on your door when you're a Sheffield United fan. Also, after the last 2 Postobon League games had the play quality of a Sunday league hungover kickabout, I thought this fixture might be a bit more promising - you can't get much better than the equivalent of a Champions League fixture over here, so I went for it.

'Barras Bravas' before kick off.

Millos are the most successful team in Colombia, according to some infomercial I read on the public transport system here, but I'd describe them more as a Chelsea than a Man U. Atletico Nacional are more the Man U of Colombia, as they seem to have fans in every city regardless of the fact the fans have no connection to Medellín or the club.

Shockingly, I was speaking to a friend in the south, and he said that both his parents were Santa Fe fans, but him and his brother were Millos. This is apparently quite common here - I can't imagine 2 Manchester United fans having 2 City fans for children - It simply wouldn't happen, but here it does.

The game kicked off with the Ultras displays:

I have no idea the significance of the chicken, but 'Gallinas Patio Bonito' is very common on the Millos Banners.

The standard of play first half was OK. Not Champions League standard, but I was grateful the midfield kept the ball down on the pitch, instead of in the air. The finishing in the first half was incredibly poor, and the forwards of both Millos and Palmeiras would have been better off on a rugby pitch, blasting chance after chance way over the goal mouth.

One thing that was instantly noticeable was the height difference between the Colombians and the Brazilians, had the ball had been in the air in midfield like the last few games, rather than on the pitch, the Brazilians would have won it every time.

Towards the end of the second half, Millos had a few chances, but it was becoming clear the man of the match at this point was the Palmeiras keeper, although shortly before half time Millos went 1-0 up. They were still losing 3-2 on aggregate, but had the important away goal from the first leg in Brazil.

Matchday catering at the Campin Stadium, Bogotá.

The second half was an improvement, shots began to land on target, and the Palmeiras number 9, the captain, made his presence felt. After about 10 minutes in, I started to lose count of the number of cards being dished out, as the match got much more physical 2nd half.

After a short lull, things got quite tense - time was ticking on, and the fans went comparatively quiet for Colombians - it was 3-2, and with the opposition keepers form, looked like it would stay that way.

A penalty was awarded to Millos, they converted, and the tempo of the match increased. There were chances at both ends, a 10 man brawls resulted in a few cards being flashed at various players - the trouble is, they don't announce the sendings off, but I think Palmeiras were down to 10 at this point - it was hard to tell in the brawl, and play was moving a bit too fast to count all the players correctly.

Penalty and taller Brazilian defence.

About 10 minutes before the end, Millos put the final nail in the coffin, I couldn't see 10 man Palmeiras coming back from this - and now the classic Postobon Liga tactic of players falling over stopped any consistent play. There was another brawl at this point, which involved approximately 20 players on the pitch, so it was clear that with Millos third goal, came the end of any quality football. Millos won 4-3 on aggregate and progressed to the next round of the Copa Suramericana.

Over here, over there...empty seats; and a small group of Brazilian fans.

All in all, it was a good match - maybe not quite worth double the price of a normal league tie which had obviously priced a lot of fans out of the stadium. Apart from the initial finishing in the first half, the second half was pretty thrilling with 2 solid goals and a penalty, I couldn't really have asked for much more.

It's still against my religion to support blue and white shite, however.

Umbrellas, giant ones. They confiscate all men's belts, cigarettes (depends if the officer searching you smokes, it seems, as you can smoke in the ground), perfume, booze (no booze is sold in the stadium) etc they find before you go into the match (although you can leave them with a 'minder' outside the ground who will stick a cloakroom ticket to your stuff and return it to you from the bus stop near CL57 for 2000 pesos. Seriously.) You are searched twice by police, once before the turnstile, once after - Yet you can take a giant brolly in which you can beat someone savagely with.

Row of police searching people outside the ground at a Santa Fe game - I'm not just talking about 2 token bobbies here.
