well either he's REALLY looking forward to taking a year off, vacationing and just playing in the national team and/or he REALLY hates PSG and do not want them to get anything

i like the latter choice, more room for drama for the upcoming year

So either he doesn't want to play for PSG, or he doesn't want to go to Saudi Arabia... he can't have both...

Because???

Also is there actually a public statement where he said that he doesn't want to play for PSG? From what I have seen he indeed wants to play for PSG, but just for one more year, before he leaves on a free

Yeah, he's been quite vocal about wanting to play out his contract at PSG, it's PSG that is intent on either selling him or getting him to re-sign (for obvious reasons).

Clubs need to realise that contracts have to be fulfilled. They decided to give him a 2 years contract. That doesnt mean play 1 year, sell the other year.

So do players. Honour your contract and do your job properly, dont go negotiating your future more than one year in advance and create issues inside and publicly for the club.

Uhm... It was PSG who started raging about him not extending. It was PSG who published the rumours about discussions between Mbappe and Real.
If he has come to the conclusion to not extend, what else should he have done to "do his job properly".

I really dislike Mbappe generally, but I think his behaviour in this situation is pretty much the most professional high caliber transfer in a while.

i think the only part that applies to mbappe is the middle part of what you said.

he is honoring his contact, he wants to play it out. its PSG who doesnt want that to happen, they're mad cause they never thought this would be the reality, that they'd lose him for free. i believe they've already threatened mbappe w benchings, for wanting to honor the contract he signed. they've already not included him in their preseaon tour.

*im not sure what the legal precedent is (apparently there are some), but PSG cant just shut mbappe out for not wanting to sign an extension. there are labour laws in france against that kind of stuff, so PSG can be taken to court if that happened.

now the negotiating ahead of time thing, PSG thinks he's already agreed w RM, i mean if u could prove it, would there be any punishment for mbappe or RM (would they even care? unless its like a transfer ban)

Who cares if he already agreed with RM? Why wouldn't he be allowed to negotiate a deal for the time after his contract ends? I fail to see any wrongdoing on the players part in this case.

His contract is valid for 2024 right? Whatever he negotiates after this period is up to him and no business with PSG. They are acting butthurt because he is not going to extend ...

theres a such thing as the bosman ruling. the whole reason psg is throwing accusations around about mbappe having agreed to a transfer with rm already is because they are basically saying (unofficially) rm and mbappe are in breach of regulations and should be sanctioned. if there was indeed any agreement by mbappe and rm it could only be made when mbappe has 6 months or less left on his contract, not the 1 year that is left now.
psg is crying about tampering without officially making a claim. at least thats the way i understand it.

otherwise i still think mbappe has been remarkably professional throughout the whole thing. whatever he said about letting psg make money off a sale wasnt binding, and he otherwise wishes to fulfil the terms of his contract before he moves on to other things. hasnt said anything negative or something that would compromise psg's position further either

I'm really really tired of mbapé drama. You can't even image how tiresome is the Spanish media press with Mbapé here in Spain. All the last 4 summers have been focused on Real Madrid trying to buy Mbapé. 4 years in a row with the same topic...

Went to watch Panama vs Jamaica at the women's world cup last night, was a fun time. They both gave it a red hot go. Plenty of biff, plenty of shots, maybe lacking a little bit of finesse.

Jamaica's centre back pairing of the Swaby sisters were dominant aerially and difficult to crack overall, no surprises they managed to hold France goalless in their first game. Drew Spence in central midfield completely ran the show and Deneisha Blackwood at left back was frequently dangerous going forward. Their star forward and captain Shaw was suspended and they lacked a cutting edge up front without her. I expect them to give Brazil a very tough match to see who goes through.

Panama were very clearly underdogs but they fought hard and defended well. They played out from the back very well initially but unfortunately they tended to lose the ball in midfield a lot. Emily Cedeno on the wing looked dangerous on the counter.

Otherwise, 16k fans was about 90% capacity for the ground, decent turnout considering the shit weather and the less glamorous teams. Was a good vibe, almost entirely neutrals who got into it. FIFA merchandise is shit. The coffee trucks were the best idea I have seen at a sports ground.

When will it be time for us to move to the new thread?

Or are we hitting the 150 before doing that? :p

On another note, not sure why but im not really hyped for this season so far.
