With a 10:3 ratio in support for migrating the community off of lemmy.world as suggested by [@[email protected]](https://sopuli.xyz/u/Blaze) in this [post](https://lemmy.world/post/22907596), we will run a trial period of migrating the community over to [[email protected]](https://lemm.ee/c/football) ### Trial period We will run a trial period of 2 months on lemm.ee to see how stable the instance is. Since all of you who discussed potential instances only had good things to say about the instance, expect the trial period to just be formality though. ### Locking down [email protected] The FootballAutoMod has been configured to automatically lock down any new posts and tell the posters to repost in the new community. While I could lock the community completely, I think this solution might help inform those of you who maybe don't check in on the community regularly. ### Why lemm.ee It's a moderately large EU-based instance with little to no drama as far as I know. The admin team seems to be competent and maintains a neutral stance with few defederations across the fediverse. The instance also got multiple recommendations amongst our users.

Deal subject to further details and also medical tests — as Chelsea are careful after twists with PSG and Al Nassr.

This is the weekly discussion thread for all things loosely related to football that may not warrant its own post.

Suleiman al-Obeid was killed on Wednesday when Israeli forces attacked civilians waiting for humanitarian aid, the PFA said. ‘‘During his long career, al-Obeid, 41, scored more than 100 goals, making him one of the brightest stars of Palestinian football,” it said. His talent on the pitch earned him the nickname of “the Palestinian Pelé” – a nod to the legendary Brazilian widely hailed as one of the greatest players of all time. Born in Gaza on 24 March 1984, Obeid began his footballing career with Khadamat al-Shati, later playing for Markaz Shabab al-Am’ari in the occupied West Bank, and Gaza Sport. A fixture in the Palestinian national side after his debut in 2007, Obeid gained 24 caps and scored twice, the PFA said, most memorably with a scissor-kick against Yemen during the 2010 West Asian Football Federation championship.

Between Postecoglou, Maddison, and Vicario, it looks like Spurs are actually cooking for a change. They also just properly signed Kulusevski. During the managerial mess, I was super on board the Nagelsmann train, and when that fell through, I really got on board the Slot train the more I read about him. I never took the Big Ange possibility seriously. Over the few weeks since Postecoglou’s announcement, I’m actually optimistic about this cursed club again. All the players and coaching staff gushing over him, all the trophy photos. The man’s mentality and passion are incredible, especially when contrasted with the negative associations that come with the club. I’m also excited to see what that means for Ryan Mason. I want to see fun football, and I want to see it done by teams that aren’t a feel-good propaganda arm of an oil kingdom. I’d usually turn to /r/coys to have (or rather, to skim) this discussion, but I don’t plan on visiting any /r/ for a while

Y'all better take care of him and play him properly
