    “Granit Xhaka | Between the Lines” is a deep-dive into him as a player, leader & coach. It’s a project I’ve produced, edited & interviewed for as part of my drive to tell stories that matter & can provide a unique insight into footballers’ stories. @PFA youtu.be/8-phZ6ECPAw?si…

    Granit Xhaka on the tactical difference between Arteta and Alonso🧠 Arguably, one of the most impactful signings this season, and it’s clear how highly he rates Alonso🤝 youtu.be/8-phZ6ECPAw?si…

    I would like to share that I am officially retiring from professional football. It’s a decision I’ve made on my own terms, and while I certainly will miss the camaraderie and the euphoria of playing the game I love, I am highly motivated to pursue other challenges.

    I’m amazed by how much people revel in people’s failures. Today: timeline flooded with even “proper” journalists/outlets relishing Ronaldo’s mishaps like trolling teenagers. Do better. But I suppose I’m just on the wrong platform🤷‍♂️

    Imo the worst take in football: “Ronaldo makes @ManUtd worse.” Then it continues: “Ralf Ragnick likes to press high - trouble for Ronaldo.” I can’t wait for (1) Ragnick finding solutions that work for the team and Ronaldo, (2) Ronaldo continuing to score goals.

    I’m not sure what is more absurd - Real Madrid bidding €220m for someone with one year left of his contract or PSG rejecting it…

    In March 2019, I left New Zealand for a trial in Scotland. Three years and three clubs later, I’ve decided to conclude my chapter here🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Thankful for the highs, the lows, and fantastic people I’ve met along the way. Some people🙌🏼 Time to prioritize and explore new challenges.

    I’m delighted to have scored my first professional goal, in a game we should have won! Proud of the team’s performance, and then there’s hopefully more goals to come too😉

    Arnautović in that elite “casual swagger - magical technique - slightly heavy - the streets will never forget” category along with Adel Taarabt and Niko Kranjcar

    Det er så rått @Glimt! Viktig å merke seg følgende: • Celtic var ubeseiret på 17 kamper (siste tap mot Leverkusen i November) • Serieleder og 3-0 seier mot Rangers to uker siden • Europeisk kveld på Celtic Park RESPEKT.

    Thank you for all the kind and supportive words, it’s been an exciting few hours! And thank you to @SoundersFC for believing in me and giving me this chance! I’m very humble about the opportunity given! #seattlesounders
