Holy fuck a former Wave employee has released a statement about her treatment at the club.

Ellis should’ve never been allowed near this league after the Yates report. This just underscores it even more.

I saw some people saying that the Vietnam Football Federation should learn from RFEF about investing in women's football and not being gender-biased. VFF has its own problems, but RFEF is on a completely different level of bad.

Jorge Vilda went into the players' rooms while they were sleeping and asked to talk at night. Mai Duc Chung said that his principle is that if he has something to say, he will meet the players on the field, in a public place, where everyone can see, never meet the players in the room. The Vietnamese players have a great coach who loves them, respects them, takes care of them. Spanish players have never had a coach like that. I wish they have a really good coach, but I don't have much hope for the RFEF 😅

I'm not writing this to praise my country's football as the best. Obviously we have a big gap in level compared to many other teams. But not everything in Europe is perfect, they have their own serious problems

thanks for sharing information about the vietnam women's team. i am not as familiar with that program. 🙏

and every federation, no matter how big or small, has its problems. but at the minimum we should not tolerate an environment in any federation where the coach abuses the players. zero tolerance. and just because a team has won a tournament doesn't automatically mean you should emulate that program in every aspect. aside from rfef, let's not forget that jill ellis won two world cups and she seems to be an absolutely horrible person.

and it's a good thing that vietnam has a good coach who respects the players and treats them fairly. that's hopefully makes for a good foundation and they can grow from there.

so one thing that rfef did that i have not seen reports that us soccer did was employ a strategy of divide and conquer. there was a lot more player unity at first, especially after the euros. but the federation completely tore it apart. it's one thing to have players with different backgrounds and ideas (lloyd vs. rapinoe) but it's another situation where the federation is exploiting that divide and causing players to second guess their decisions. that's what happened that led to 'las 15.'

and the other major difference is that in spain, we have the sports law that requires players to attend a call-up otherwise they risk losing their license to play football at all. usa does not have any such law and so, there isn't that risk of exploitation of younger players as replacements that spain dealt with.

so a super corrupt and divisive federation that blocked all unity efforts and a draconian law. plus, the uswnt were able to successfully use us labour laws to mount a legal challenge based on discrimination and violation of federal law. unfortunately, we do not have the same set of facts or laws to take advantage of in spain's situation.

After watching the preview episode of the re-cap show, my first thought is actually a confirmation of something I believe for awhile now, and it's that in my opinion Tobin & Christen truly are in a different phase of their life now. They've changed, right in front of our eyes, they have built this whole other work reality that no longer NEEDS to be connected with the field, they are beyond. I'm not saying they're retiring tomorrow (even though I think they WILL do it very soon), I just feel they have found their dimension elsewhere. And it's deeply beautiful.

I noticed just how GOOD they are despite this being their first experience in this kind of projects. I remember Tobin's first videos for the company, about her art, and she didn't even look at the camera. Since becoming co-ceo, and maybe since stepping up after Pinoe's silent exit, she kinda found this new confidence. She joins events and promotional works by herself that before she would have attended only with Christen, or not attended at all.

Now she produces and hosts a show, and she's funny, charming, thoughtful, wonderfully loud when she laughs and freely honest when she speaks.

Even the choice of their first guest is pretty revealing. It actually tells how little we know about their lives and their relationships. That's why I usually talk about opinions and impressions, because that's all we have.

And exactly about my opinion about their new phase of their life, I think Ellis and Christen probably might have talked about things at some point. And not about her tactical choices but about her silence when Christen tried to expose Dames' toxic behaviour. It's not something you just ignore and sit together to joke, laugh and talk Football.

The interview was actually really brilliant and honest. I think Tobin took the lead because anyway she had a different relationship with Ellis but also it really seemed more her space, she has always had a complete vision of football, tactically and strategically. That's why it seemed she really talked Ellis' language. And it was deeply fascinating, curious and educative.

I'm not gonna deny that listening to Ellis actually talking about football and about her choices was truly interesting. Despite all her personal mistakes, I think she really knows her job, and she knows how to do it. I never heard Vlatko having such professional insights and I really admired him before, when I still had not realized he has no idea how to manage team and players and he doesn't really care about them either.

Ellis was pretty honest about her tactical decisions, I don't know if she would do exactly the same now, especially with Christen. But I still love how equally honest Christen was with her. The quote "I'd let you babysit my daughter but I don't think I'll play you in this game" is not really a joke and both of them know it. But it was a moment of Truth.

I think Ellis appreciated and appreciates Christen both as person and player, she made a choice, a debatable one, but still hers. And Christen faced her for it. But in the end I liked to see that she still considered her time playing for Ellis as a learning experience, it puts everything in perspective.

I always thought Christen was way much more than the sweet and zen person we often see. She did make a few interesting remarks to Ellis among the lines of jokes, she knows how to tease Tobin (probably her favourite pastime), she can be snarky and witty, and it's pretty awesome.

That's why I was in love with the blunt confrontation between Tobin & Christen. It was actually what I expected, Tobin always so free and direct, Christen so smart, witty and a little biting! The Daily Debate was just amazing but what I noticed is that every time Tobin talked, with Jill or simply telling something, she always included Christen in her moments, in her thoughts, her memories, her experiences, she looked at her, waited for her reaction.

The most technical part of the conversation was so intriguing for a football fan. I loved the Marginal Gain philosophy, it's the success in the details.

Also, about the USWNT, I think Tobin doesn't have much admiration for Vlatko, as coach and person. At one point she said something like "talking about chewing and spitting …" and she went on saying she and Christen wouldn't be at the World Cup, it says something.

In the end, I think they really nailed this first episode. I wanna see Christen take the lead in the next episodes and I can't wait for them!

did jill just confirm 2019ish era preath?! go watch re cap show!

on the re inc wwc show w preath jill starts talking about being out and all that and then she says something about being asked if it was a distraction in the locker room and then to preath was like i dont think and i think it does help being authentic. anyways could be nothing and just about being out and whatnot but also maybe preath :)

[jmd1027sd]

Finally watched the first re-cap episode and it just made me feel some sort of way. Listening to Jill Ellis speak just highlights Vlatko's deficiencies. How did this happen?

[coachtfd]

“I remember when Jill Ellis came in and tried tinkering with the squad, playing players out of their best position, weird formations, trying to put “her stamp” on the team. She learned real quick to cut that out if she wants to win games. This team is like a Ferrari: you don’t need to modify it or try to upgrade it with new features, all you have to do is steer it…it does the rest.”

Jill Ellis trying to figure out why San Diego Wave didn't win and isn't at the top of the table one game after firing Casey Stoney:

[planetburp1]

Lol 😂😂😂 Preaths will fall in line like the weird sheep that they are!!!!! 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑

[myusernameistrashfr]

Jilllll😁 babbyyyyyy🤭🤭, I was joking all those times I shat on you🫣🥴🥴. Come back for me, huh😝 just like🤭 for a minuteee😫. Huh, what do ya say?😚🥰😚😏🤭

I am free

[hardtchill]

She should have been investigated, but she was never a coach associated with a scandal, so your idea (as usual) is wrong.

hey you fried watermelon pit, she was the national team coach who ignored Christen and didn't do jack shit when she knew she was being mistreated.

so yeah, go fuck a landmine
