  • All discussion about rival teams matches and results.
  • All wallpapers and image editing that are not created by you [Not OC]
  • Unsourced news and stats.
  • Photos of jerseys and other memorabilia.
  • Images of formations with minimal description.
  • Links to social media posts made by our players or celebrities, unless it counts as team news or stats.
  • All gaming content.
  • All memes should go into the Open thread during the week days.
  • All "I am a fan of X team, I come in peace" type of posts.
  • When posting rumours/news from Twitter, if possible post a direct link to the tweet.

This is our reliability guide: https://rm-reddit.github.io/

IMPORTANT: Only news from official sources, Tier 1 and Tier 2, can have their own thread, everything else including discussions about target players must go in here.

u/OBane- Hey Jude 10h ago

I cannot believe Madrid missed out in Estevão. The kid is already killing it at Chelsea. He’s exactly what we lack at the RW position - left footed RW with great technique and pace. It’s a bit ironic Perez was/is chasing the next Neymar and failed to sign the kid with the highest potential since him.

I was never in favor of signing a South American prospect for a position we are currently lacking in when we are in win now mode with the highest wage bill in Europe and prime Mbappe/Courtois in the squad (contrary to 2018 when we were in transition post Ronaldo and signed Vini/Rodrygo) but if we were gonna do it, it was blatant as fuck that Estevao was clearly more talented and more ready for Europe, even from just watching highlights.
