Last week, Genk teammate Tolu Arokodare while speaking to Tribalfootball said about Penders: “He is a good person, a good professional and he is very hardworking. We should expect the best from him. “I must admit that it is difficult to score against him in training and we do our best to help one another improve. “We should expect nothing but the best from him and talking about our reaction when Chelsea signed him. Well, we were not really surprised because we know the qualities he possesses.”

He said from Italy: “It’s already better than last year. “Jokes aside, I understand Mister Inzaghi and that’s why I’ve never tried to bother anyone about it. “There are four of us and we’re all top-level players, it’s not easy.

Schuster: Real Madrid suffering for not replacing Kroos

October 13, 2024 1 Comment

Ex- Real Madrid player and coach Bernd Schuster says Kylian Mbappe should not be blamed solely for Real’s inconsistent start to the year. Instead he feels that the team not replacing Toni Kroos is part of the reason for their recent struggles. Mbappe has played well since joining from Paris Saint-Germain over the summer, although many people have expected more from him. Schuster while speaking at a golf event on Saturday said: “Sometimes people like him come in with a lot of quality. Normally it’s easier for them, but sometimes it’s a bit difficult. I think it’s a question of matches. He knows what he has to do, it’s a question of time. The whole team has to change a bit, not just him. “In the team, right now there is no one there (to replace Toni Kroos). He was the last one. He has marked 10 years at Real Madrid with the way of playing. His solidity was only his and that cannot be replaced. There is no one there now and we have to find a formula for things to work the same way. “There will not be another like him because he has marked an era and this cannot be changed in two months.”

Thanks to Tyler, Atlanta can steal an Eastern Conference Wild Card spot with a Decision Day victory at Orlando City SC, including other good results they have. “For me, it was just trying to focus on the task that the coaches are giving me before I go in, you know, kind of see how the game’s playing out,” Wolff said post-match of his heroic substitute appearance. “But obviously, chaos and it’s part of the game and just stay calm and when you get your chance, just take it.” Whatever role Wolff plays on Decision Day, he is excited to be a contributor to his team’s late playoff qualification. “I kept telling myself let’s just finish this season strong and then when you get your opportunity to take a chance,” he said. “And yeah, happy to help the team get the three points in the end.”
