Of that list I'd keep Bernardo and I don't mind Gundo being a squad player. There are multiple players there that deserve proper goodbyes if they leave.

Yeah the main argument against VAR for me is being able to celebrate a goal instantly, bring more of the emotion back.
Being on the end of a goal like that would be tough to stomach though.
That goal is great evidence for it though, no idea how the ref and linesman missed the flick on.

Not convinced Wirtz was ever a realistic option. All the early noises were that he wanted Bayern.

Seems to be fitting all the press releases from FIFA regarding kits. Not using the colour associated with the club in an international tournament is mental.

I think from an entertainment perspective it was. It was boring, that's one of the worst criticisms I can give about the team.

Needs more than just a revision. There isn't enough action to justify those ticket prices. The lack of field events is embarrassing for the sport too, they not only provide competition but brings the atmosphere between track events. TV viewers lose out too, field events replaced with adverts. 🤦♂️

3 days and 8 races a night is a bad decision. I get that it's so the athletes can run 2 races but should be 2 nights and 12 races. No field events makes it look emptier too. Diamond League is usually a later start time as well, which must help on a 'work' day.

Yeah I'm hoping the next 3 meets show the appetite is there but this isn't a good start. I like the attempted innovation but the Diamond League is going nowhere on this showing.
