I’ve invented a new training aid and I am in the process of getting agreement from the fa to allow my invention to be worn during matches. It’s the Magno Vest, each vest has the same polarity as other teammates vests which will repel them from each other when they get too close to each other. The polarity can can be switched allowing slower defenders to keep tighter to quicker strikers. It’s endorsed by a former City legend, Brian Carey, who says “if I had this when I was playing It would have been very scary for the strikers, I’d have been in their face for 90 minutes, the shower, bar and trip home”.

There’s just something about his style and positions he takes up that looks like they’d get in each other’s way. Anyone got a more informed view if he’d be a partner to either, replacement, alternative, etc be up top on his own?? Who has he worked best with at Celtic and what role did he play? Or maybe it means he can replace either of them, if he’s doing the same things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prelim squad is 80 (includes players like mbappe ) will be cut to 18 by the end of june its U23 so inconceivable that little wes and soumare aren’t on it. clubs can withdraw players if they have a valid reason. I guess it depends how much the player wants to go and play - you would think France have a good chance of winning it so perhaps we won’t see the three in preseason.

(Wherever they are ) Leeds have stopped their keeper Meslier from going to the Olympics for France, with Wes not even starting often for the u23s I think there might be a chance he doesn’t go They also get to take 3 over 23 players so every chance Soumare might get pushed out the squad as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 9 June 2021 Share Posted 9 June 2021 Weirdly France have a real lack of strikers through the ages compared to the abundance of players in other positions, so Edouard is bound to be wanted. I think with the upheaval in the French league and a lot of players changing clubs this summer there will be many who won't want to play in it.

I can't find online anywhere who is actually on the pre-list although I know Edouard is on it. The pre-list has 80 players and that'll be whittled down to a final squad of 22 I guess so thre's a chance Edouard may not make the cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it could depend on what over 23 players they take I saw Mbappe is rumoured to be going, so possible Edouard may go as back up to him, or maybe they want to take someone more experienced? Lil Wes might not go as they have Upamecano, Konate, Kounde, Badiashile, maybe an over 23 player? I can definitely see Soumare going I mean for all we know we could sign them and Leicester then come out saying none of them can go haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 9 June 2021 Share Posted 9 June 2021 Little Wes is injured currently though from the last game of the season, so I’d hardly imagine he’d be in a fit state to play in these crappy tournaments 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends on the player, from what I've read the club can deny them going if the player agrees but if the player wants to go and the club forbid him then it can get messy. That's what the stooshe around Mbappe going at the moment is around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
