🇺🇸 The US football season is vastly different to what we're used to in Europe.

Here's everything you need to know about the MLS and all other competitions Messi can play in for Inter Miami!

[MEGA THREAD] 🧵

The Qatar World Cup has been mired in controversy since the day it was announced.

Obviously I will be covering the tournament - and I can’t deny my excitement for what is my favourite thing in all of sport - but I’ve felt uncomfortable about it. I subsequently decided to take a deep dive into these controversies so that I can cement my opinions, highlight the problems, dispel some myths, and just do my bit to ensure the spotlight is being shone in the right places.

Let's get stuck in! 👇 In La Masia and the Barcelona B team, Lionel Messi played mostly on the left wing or as a number 10.

Messi said he saw himself as a typical Argentine Enganche; a playmaking number 10 who sits in the hole between the midfield and attack.

I've seen lots of confusion about Cristiano Ronaldo's position/role in his early career. I often forget that there are actual adults who are still too young to have witnessed his EPL years!

In this huge thread (30+ tweets), we'll analyse how his position evolved. Cristiano Ronaldo began his career in midfield as a traditional winger, using his blistering pace and immense trickery to run at and beat defenders, before looking to provide for the striker(s).
