it hit me that it’s like...my four year anniversary as a football fan? i started actively watching club football in june 2019 after so many years of people wanting me to get into it. i wandered into the pre-season so so confused, with nothing but faithful watching of the 2018 and 2019 world cups and a very solid primer on Gerlonso lore/the miracle of Istanbul by my side. why were players coming to preseason trainings and then signing for a new club the next day? why were there huge summer games (i briefly had tickets to the madrid friendly derby in nyc before i had to sell them bc i was the brokest of the broke) that didn’t actually mean anything? i remember an insta story of barça’s trip to japan of ivan rakitić hugging andres iniesta emotionally and i was like who tf is this random bald dude? and why am i supposed to care about him? i thought the premier league seemed boring, that chelsea manager frank lampard was french (????) and that dude mikel arteta was the “hot goth manager” (okay, so one thing i got right from the get go). my family friends were OBSESSED with arsenal and i was like “lol dorks who would skip going out into the city to stay home and watch arsenal?” but that granit xhaka dude seemed hot, scary, and a badass. my first footballer ship was rakidrić and my first favorite fanfic author was @protect-daniel-james (i won’t mention which fic was the first of hers that i read, but...it involved french people 😈). so some things haven’t changed. but overall, my friends, i knew NOTHING. i only even watched one club! i remember watching an atleti game to see šime and it felt like. scandalous. now i am one of those multiclub heaux who everyone on tumblr hates and i’ve seen the beauty of the premier league, ligue 1, and so much more. i’ll never have a childhood or geographic loyalty, but can i count as a real football fan yet?
#ihc watches futbol#NOSTALGIA#man i thot the grizi transfer drama was a whole lot#but that was just an average day at barça lol

Andres Iniesta retires and ESPN made it about the Golden Child: his PR, paint by number farewell message is the important information (not suggesting they didn’t have private heartfelt conversations), not one of the best midfielders of his generation retiring.
Couldn’t find a picture of Iniesta alone in his long career, gotta hit the keywords for that sweet sweet clickbait money. Breaking news? Really?

Thank saint garrincha for alex song. It is rare to find an honest player. 1st, he left to Barca for MONEY!!! so many players talk about how they loved the team they followed him. Get out of here. You left for the money. And there is nothing wrong with leaving for the money , but it should be nothing wrong leaving for the money anywhere, any confederation, any league. Second, all of these agents and entourages and "family" members, never help guide these players spent their money better... ahhhh
THE ARTiCLE
'I left Arsenal for the money – I knew I wouldn’t play but I didn’t think twice about leaving' Alex Song had only one thing in mind when Barcelona came in to sign him from Arsenal - and it certainly wasn't how many minutes he'd be playing in their star-studded side
Arsene Wenger the Arsenal manager chats to Alex Song during an Arsenal pre season training session on July 20, 2005
ByDan Burnham Senior Sports Reporter 13:09, 9 Sep 2024
Regular game time at Arsenal wasn't enough for Alex Song - who "didn't give a f***" about warming Barcelona's bench to become a millionaire.
Song, who celebrates his 37th birthday today (September 9), had been with the Gunners since 2005, first signing on loan aged just 17 and going on to make 205 appearances across all competitions under Arsene Wenger. He was a reliable defensive midfielder for their French boss, making him one of the first names on the teamsheet.
His Premier League form attracted attention from the Catalan giants, who made a £15million offer for his services in the summer of 2012. At the time, Barca boasted their star-studded midfield of Sergio Busquets, Andres Iniesta and Xavi.
So Song was under no illusions he'd be anything but a back-up option used primarily from the bench and in cup competitions. But that was of no concern to him, "not thinking twice" before putting pen to paper on a five-year deal which earned him a reported pay rise from £55,000-a-week to £70k.
Recalling the moment while on an Instagram live with fellow Cameroonian and NBA star Pascal Siakam in 2020, he said: “When Barcelona offered me a contract, and I saw how much I would earn, I didn't think twice.
"I felt my wife and children should have comfortable lives once my career is over. I met Barca's sporting director, and he told me I would not get to play many games, but I didn't give a f*** – I knew that now I would become a millionaire."
Song had been on good money at Arsenal, earning £15k-a-week in just his first contract. But the lavish lifestyle he led in the English capital drained his earnings.
He detailed one costly purchase in particular - buying the same car as Arsenal legend Thierry Henry, which he returned within two months due to how much it was costing him in petrol.
"Most footballers live beyond their means. I was at Arsenal for eight years but only began to earn a good living in the last four," Song admitted.
"That was because my salary went up a lot -- but also because I came to realise what a waster I was. During my entire time at Arsenal, I couldn't even save £100,000, while people thought I must be a millionaire."
He'd spend just two seasons playing for Barca before returning to London for two loan spells with West Ham, departing permanently in 2016 to join Russian club Rubin Kazan. Song went on to also represent Swiss side Sion and Arta Solar 7 in Djibouti before retiring last November.

But has that star power ever reformed into a World Cup win? The Sporting News dives into their best at the blokes' FIFA contest. To date, the Netherlands has not ever won the World Cup but has come agonizingly near in the past. They have second place in three cases, behind the final in 1974, 1978, and 2010. Their last two finals both went to added time through the Dutch behind 3-1 to Argentina in 1978. Before Spain bounded past them 1-0 in 2010 graciousness of Andres Iniesta's box in the 116th minute.
The Netherlands have also fallen small at the semi-final stages twice pressuring. Their ability to go deep into the competition without final success. While they finished an extra three times, South Africa 2010 marks their best general drive. The Netherlands won all six of their sporting leading up to the final in the illogicality of Spain. Scoring 12 times and soft just five goals on their way to an additional ineffective final.
History of the Netherlands national football team
The Netherlands nationwide football team frolicked their first worldwide match in Antwerp in contradiction of Belgium on 30 April 1905. The players were designated by a five-member knowledge from the Dutch football connotation. After 90 notes, the notch was 1–1, but since the willing was for a cup (the "Coupe van den Abeele"). The game died into extra time, in which Eddy de Neve logged three periods. Created the groove 4–1 for the Dutch side.[5]
The Netherlands made their first arrival at the World Cup final competition in 1934. After another arrival in 1938, they did not look for additional World Cup until 1974. The 1970s saw the formation of Total Ball (Dutch: Totaalvoetbal). Originated by Feyenoord and Ajax then led by playmaker Johan Cruyff and nation-wide side coach Rinus Michels.

The Dutch whole huge paces, qualifying for two World Cup championships in the retro. The head of the Brazilian lateral that increased the 1970 FIFA World Cup. Carlos Alberto, died on to say. The only team I’ve tacit that did belongings then was Holland at the 1974 World Cup in Germany. Since then all appearances more or less alike to me. Their ‘carousel’ style of play was astonishing to wristwatch and delightful for the game.
In 1974, the Netherlands weary both Brazil and Argentina in the extra group stage. Accomplishing the final for the first time in their past. However, the lateral loss to West Germany in the final in Munich. Nevertheless overwhelming gone 1–0 up finished Johan Neeskens' early importance kick beforehand any German had even pretentious the ball. However, armor-plated by the crowd. transformed penalty by Paul Breitner and the champion from Gerd Müller led to a defeat for the Germans.
Netherlands' best finish at FIFA World Cup
By contrast, Euro '76 was a displeasure. The Netherlands lost in the semi-finals to Czechoslovakia, as much because of the aggression within the collection and the trainer George Knobel, as well as the aptitude of the final winners. In 1978, the Netherlands again affected the final of a World Cup, only to be beaten by the host, this period Argentina. This side played without Johan Cruijff, Willem van Hanged, and Jan van Beveren, who declined to donate to the World Cup.
It is still incomplete Johan Neeskens, Johnny Rep, Arie Haan, Ruud Krol, Wim Jansen, Jan Jongbloed, Wim Suurbier, and Attack Rensenbrink from the 1974 collection. The Netherlands was less impressive in the cluster phases. They talented as another place, after an inducement with Peru and a loss to Scotland. In the extra group phase, but, the Netherlands beat a group plus Italy and West Germany, location up a final through Argentina.

However, the Dutch over as contenders up for the supplementary World Cup in a racket as they eventually lost 3–1 after two added-time goals from Argentina. Unfortunately for the Dutch, Rensenbrink hit the Argentinian post in the last small of typical time, with the score 1–1. Euro '80 was the last competition for which the Total Ball team fit, nonetheless, they did not loan past the group stage, despite the competition format being long drawn out that year.
Veterans such as Krol and Rensenbrink retired soon later and the Netherlands missed the 1982 World Cup, Euro '84, and the 1986 World Cup in series. A precondition for Euro 1984 was inside reach, but the Dutch drive on the same quantity of opinions as rivals Spain, and the same goalmouth change (+16). Spain is broadminded having equaled two more goals.
The let-down to spread the 1986 World Cup was similarly very close. In a play-off with residents Belgium, the Netherlands lost 1–0 in Brussels but were significantly 2–0 in the home-based leg in Rotterdam with a few movements unresolved. Belgium logged to end the tie 2–1, and the whole play off 2–2. Belgium was liberal on the inattentive goal rule. Rinus Michels repaid to educator the team for the Euro '88 rivalry.
Netherlands World Cup history and results
After behindhand the first group match likened to the Soviet Union (1–0), the Netherlands went on to prosper for the semi-final by beating England 3–1 (with a hat-trick by the tournament's top scorer Marco van Basten), and National of Ireland (1–0). For many Dutch ball groups, the most significant match in the rivalry was the semi-final in the illogicality of West Germany, the host republic, careful a retaliation for the lost 1974 World Cup final (also in West Germany).
Despite high forecasts as the team inwards the 1990 World Cup, the competition was not an achievement. Van Basten was ineffective in scoring, as he was often noticeable by contradictory defenders, while Gullit was unproductive having not fully better quality from the wound. The Dutch managed to loan notwithstanding drawing all three group games, session their arch-rivals West Germany in the rotund of 16.
The match is most recalled for the spitting incident connecting Frank Rickards and Rudi Voller as the Netherlands lost 2–1. The team strained the semi-finals in the Euro '92, which was famous for the entrance of Dennis Bergkamp, but they were uninvolved by ultimate champs Denmark, with Van Basten's kick in the significant shootout being saved by Peter Schmeichel.
This continued to be van Basten's last major contest as he suffered a kind ankle injury soon after, finally elastic defeat and cagy at the age of 30 in 1995.
