There, with the EDS team, he won the club’s first Premier League 2 championship and got voted Player of the Season in a side flush with budding stars a year or two (or three, or four) his senior. But thanks to a “very strong character,” he wanted to make the jump.Īfter a handful of appearances for the U18’s, he quickly moved up to the U23 level. It was certainly understandable considering the difficulties of navigating such a stacked system. The 19-year-old is likely to leave Southampton after their relegation from the Premier League and is valued at £45m.Ĭhelsea have registered interest in the Belgian, who has also been watched by Manchester United and Liverpool, but there is growing belief he will end up at Arsenal.īack where our story began, reports suggested that there were ample voices, even from the City side, that recommended Lavia stay in Belgium at the time. Talks have been held over moving for Lavia. Reports have linked the midfielder with Arsenal : If we were to look for a similarly pithy way of describing the real subject of this article, it’d be this: Roméo Lavia bets on himself.
#Oh fuck i cant believe youve done this gif professional
Accepting Kevin de Bruyne’s invitation to attend the KDB Cup, an international youth event, he soon locked his eyes on a 15-year-old midfielder who was orchestrating play, keeping the ball, and eventually winning the tournament.Ī year later, that player - Roméo Lavia, as you’ve already surmised - signed his first professional contract with Man City. He did some noticing a year later in Belgium, too. The guy was like “uh, they play rugby here too.” Ah. He wanted to know, among other things, the strategy behind their pitch markings, and what tactical benefits they offer. Before long, the conversation turned to information-gathering. Pep invited their coaching staff to join him for a post-match meeting, showering them with his usual Peppy compliments. For now, I’ll be more obsequious, and say this: Pep Guardiola notices things.Īs a small, terrible example, I remember stumbling upon an anecdote from a Bristol City assistant after a Carabao Cup tie. If his outfit had successfully pulled off a late swoop of Declan Rice, I’d have a few more things to add. I was attempting to politely point out that it was because it was flinching and not because it was stressed or angry as you were implying by disagreeing with the original comment that started this, which stated the cat was relaxed.Much can be said about Pep Guardiola. I fucking know you didn't say it, I know the other guy didn't say it, but you're acting like the context you have for each comment only exists at the instant it was posted and are ignoring the context of the thread, including your own contributions. The cat's ears only moved back and down as a result of it flinching. I was saying you were wrong, though, tried to phrase it in a more diplomatic way. Sorry you got defensive but I'm dizzy from the circles you were trying to spin to follow a single concept. Stick to the subject matter if you want to actually make a point.
