as an american, i agree. (my bias toward american players wouldn’t even put lindsey in the top 10)

hot take? i legitimately would have gone with anyone all the way to alyssa naeher before lindsey horan.

lindsay horan ranking higher than alexia? (compare their world cup performance at the very least)

the way i’m invested in believing that klumpig is frido’s daughter that i think she’s become my new favorite to read about

Klumpig's Halloween:

Fridolina Rolfö x Teen!Reader

Summary: The fourth of my Halloween-centric fics

Frido sighs as Aitana approaches.

"Don't," She says.

"I haven't even said anything."

"And yet, I knew what you were going to say. So, please, don't."

It seems that everyone in Frido's life has decided to ignore her though because Aitana still speaks.

"She dressed up as you, huh? That's kind of funny."

"It's really not."

"I thought it was funny."

"That's because you've got the same sense of humour as her."

Frido takes a swig of her wine, looks at the glass for a moment before downing the rest like a shot, already reaching for the bottle to refill it again.

You're across the room from her with Vicky and Salma. They're gone the more traditional Halloween route, Salma as a vampire and Vicky as a werewolf.

You've decided against that even though you used to love it.

Frido's whole camera role is filled with pictures of you from your childhood in your cute little Halloween costumes. She can still remember dressing up like a ghost with you and helping you go around town trick-or-treating while your parents got the family Halloween party started.

Somewhere along the way, at some point during those years when Frido left the country and you got older, you'd decided against all the traditional Halloween stuff.

No more masks and cute costumes and insisting that you're 'a unicorn-princess-witch, Frido! Obviously!' in favour of more chilled out costumes that you didn't have to buy and could just scrounge up from your wardrobe.

Maybe you'd even throw on some gory makeup to really sell it but gone are the days of you in a little white sheet with eye holes cut out and fake, oversized teeth.

You were a teenager now and after last year's fiasco of you just dressed as a 'first dead girl' from a horror movie, Frido's done arguing - though she does make sure to take your picture in front of the wall to add to her Halloween collection.

This time though, you've really outdone yourself, deciding to forgo your wardrobe entirely in favour of Frido's.

You're in her Barcelona kit, her shorts, her shirt and her socks. You've taken her favourite pair of football boots and even her shin guards. It was cold when you left the house so you grabbed her Sweden warm up jacket even though your own was perfectly capable of being worn.

"Oh," Ingrid says over the top of her own glass of wine," Here we go."

She glances meaningfully back over at you as Alexia walks over.

"The point of a Halloween party," Alexia says," Is to dress up, Frido. If you don't dress up then the younger players won't dress up."

"I am dressed up."

"You're wearing your football kit. You're hardly dressed up."

"But I am!"

"You're not."

You turn around, relishing in the brief look of surprise that crosses your captain's face. It always takes people a few seconds to realise which Rolfö they're talking to.

"But I am!" You say triumphantly," I'm Frido! I should have brought a wine glass with me but I didn't want to push it."

From across the room, Frido sighs.

"I don't always have a wine glass on me!" She yells.

You look pointedly at her hand and she hastily puts it down.

"You should tell her off, capi," You say to Alexia with a cheeky grin," A glass of wine after every big match to unwind. Isn't that so bad? I mean, you don't even drink during the season. Surely, Frido should follow your lead, right? I mean, you don't want me thinking that what Frido's doing is acceptable?"

"Stop trying to set Alexia on me!" Frido yells back," If I want a glass of wine for putting up with your craziness then I'll have a glass of wine."

You ignore her in favour of laying it on thick with your captain.

"Alexia, are you listening to her? First she's drinking and now she's calling me crazy! You should really bench her!"

"Funny," Alexia says dryly," You must be really getting into character because she asked me to bench you a few weeks ago as well."

You grin. "Well, at least she can't ask you to do that now, seeing as...you know..."

You gesture to your bandaged leg. Most of it is hidden under Frido's shorts and socks but a bit of it peaks out.

Frido sighs, clicking her fingers and pointing in front of her.

On any other day, you'd probably argue a bit about it but you're with the team right now and you know they can only take so much Rolfö cousin bickering.

You hobble over on crutches to stop in front of her.

Frido stands fluidly, placing her glass down on the side table.

"You know I don't like it when you poke fun at your injury," She says, cupping your cheek in one of her hands," It's serious."

"I know," You huff," But it was just a joke. Just trying to keep it light."

"I know but-"

"It is Halloween after all."

Frido rolls her eyes fondly. "You don't think dressing up as me is joke enough?"

She recognises the cheeky grin on your face the moment it curls upwards at the corner of your mouth.

"Oh man," You pretend to groan," But I haven't even gotten to the best part."

"And what exactly is the best part?"

"The part when I do my impression of you when you found out that Brick was coming to stay."

"No! Don't you-"

"She screamed so loud," You tell the group assembled near Frido's seat," And stomped her feet like a little girl. She said something like- Hey! Put me down! Frido!"

Frido easily lifts you over her shoulder.

"I think we're going to call a cab and go home. It's past this one's bedtime."

"I don't have a bedtime! Stop telling people I have a bedtime!"

okay, so the uswnt game tonight was the first pro soccer game i got to see in person and it was amazing tbh. the first half had me stressed but i got a ton of amazing pictures and it was a great one to go to

sorry to be negative on the dash but..... y'all need to be nicer to fanfic writers. we all know interactions are decreasing, and even during the nine months i've been on here, i've noticed a decrease.

tell writers you like their works. comment on their works, reblog their works.

some of you act so entitled, and idk if you've noticed but you're literally making writers miserable. it makes me so sad to see my mutuals deactivate because the joy of writing has been taken away from them by ungrateful readers who are constantly demanding more, more, more, to the point where people are experiencing burnout and anxiety because they can't keep up with the constant unrealistic demands.

reminder that even though it takes you five minutes to read 1k words it might've taken the writer hours to get the words down, proofread, edit, and make the perfect fic layout.

some of you complain that there are no "good" fics anymore, yet you do nothing for the fandom, do nothing to support writers and just hide behind anon and blank blogs, complaining about every little thing till you've driven all writers off this site.

it's so tiring. please be kinder. we're all trying our best here.

i second this. owala’s are amazing and my target hasn’t been getting new ones for so long that i’m about to have to order one for my second job

wait i was going to buy an owala…is there a different water bottle you like??? i need a new one desperately

i love my hydroflask for the gym and my YETI for work!

[wosoimagines]

a lot of it is this.

also they kinda suck? like they’re usually decent but they’re not? they’ve only won 4 playoff games since i was born in 2000. and the fans definitely always have this “it’s our year” mentality when we all know they won’t make it to the superbowl.

My most darling, favorite writer who happens to be located in the USA 🇺🇸, can you please explain to us plebs why the whole country hates the Dallas Cowboys?

Thank you, and RAAAAH 🦅🔫🦅🔫

HAHAAA

i'm not super well versed in football [the american kind] mostly because i live in bears territory and the bears are... so, so bad.

BUT i think people hate the cowboys because their fans are obnoxious, generally the rest of america has a strong disdain for texas, and they also started calling themselves "america's team" even though no one outside of dallas decided to give them that distinction.

I'm literally dying at the contrast between the dogs (and their medals)

[wosoimagines]

Everyone said the rest of the world had caught up. That it was going to take years for the USWNT to win a major tournament again.

They won anyway.

Everyone said that USSF was writing off this Olympic tournament. That they couldn’t possibly win with Emma Hayes only having 4 games before their plane left for Paris.

They won it anyway.

Everyone said the USWNT couldn’t win with this young of a roster. That they were going to miss the veteran presences left off this roster.

They won anyway.

Everyone said constantly depending on a front three who had never gotten consistent minutes together before the Olympics was going to be a disaster.

They won anyway.

They did it. They proved every doubter wrong. They made everyone who celebrated their downfall last year look like a fucking joke. They played hard. They played together. They played for each other. They’re Olympic champions and nobody can take that away.

[wosoimagines]

I could understand if it was like the men’s side with the U-23 team, but these are the senior teams? But not only that but the Olympic medals are considered a major medal. That honestly felt like a highlight point going into the Olympics and probably with the USWNT taking gold since they’ve never went a 4 year cycle without a World Cup or Olympic gold medal. So it feels weird not to take them into consideration.

Olympics don’t count for FIFA rankings

I’m answering this since it’s the nicest ask I’ve gotten on the topic. I got called dumb and the ‘c’ word in different asks. So thanks for that.

And if the rankings don’t shift, at least I know in my heart that we are great.

[wosoimagines]

Also that’s kinda bogus tbh. They definitely should change. Like this is still a tournament and we are still playing other top teams.
