quote:

Real Madrid were aware that Kubo's contract with the Japanese club ended on June 1, while his rivals thought that his contract with Tokyo lasted until January 31, 2020, as shown in the Transfermarkt portal. All this has caused Madrid to throw itself at him without the need to talk to the Japanese club, while Barça and PSG have been undecided when it comes to making a decision, whether to talk to Tokyo thinking he has a contract or wait until next year when he'll be free.


That is translated from the article printed from Marca.

the anti-PSG bias in the english media really has taken hold at this point.

Tell me, how many Ligue 1 games have you watched in the last 5 years?

I’ve probably watched in the neighborhood of 50 or 60. Many a lazy Saturday’s with Bein on the tube. I’m not anti PSG at all. I think Ligue 1 is closer to the Eredivisie than it is to England or Spain though. He’s leaving a club that as of a month ago had a better team than PSG.

My point is he’s an elite player and he’s 19 years old. I don’t think Ligue 1 will be much more of a challenge to him than the Dutch league. From a development perspective I thought he’d be better off taking a step up to England or Spain. He’s ready for that and it would push him to be a better player because he’d have to be. He can just continue dominating ligue1 like he did the Eredivisie. It’s no secret in athletics that you grow as a player by competing against the best

Not sure I believe that but okay fine

I’d say they’re at least equidistant

They had a better run in the Champions League for 1 year, that’s really all you can say.

Plenty of young players have come to PSG and developed well. Plenty. Do I really have to run off a list of them?

Further the idea that simply going to England or Spain will make you a better player than going to PSG is silly. Sure, you will generally speaking face better completion but the gap isn’t out of control.

It’s the difference between the SEC and ACC yet many (including you) act like it’s the difference between the SEC and Sun Belt. It’s tiresome and just not accurate. Funnily enough these are often the same people who then turn around and try to prop up MLS of all things.

Lol I do agree the hate for PSG is odd to me. You get a lot more hate than City do but I think it’s because of the Qatar/World Cup and Nasser is a loud mouth.

It’s that plus it’s also the English hate the French so they go out of their way to poo poo L1 and PSG. The American soccer media and fans take their cues from the English soccer media so people here and on r/soccer regurgitate the talking points even though 95% have no idea what they are talking about & never watch L1.

He's in the market, and Brahim was added to the list of those for sale.

That, plus PSG having several count-ish players doesn't help either.

I personally don't have a long list of PSG players I dislike. Dani Alves is super easy to root against. I can see how someone would've really hated Zlatan because he's arrogant. I think he's great, but I could see some saying they don't like him.

I just don't think it's outrageous to hear someone say they hated/hate a handful of PSG guys.

Rabiot is barely a PSG player

What is dislikeable about ADM unless you’re ManU fan?

No but it is outrageous to pretend like PSG has a higher rate of unlikeable players than other top level clubs
