Yeah, they mean that. And those positions should be earned, not given out to people because they have the "right" gender or ethnicity or whatever.

Which is what every normal person says all the time but government love their quotas. I'm sure a successful female coach would love to be the token female coach instead of having earned their place, right?



Hmm, pie.

80 mins since the goal, and not an attempt on target from Chelsea since. Hope they can get a late goal, don't want Man City getting back in the race



So I read Milan wants Lukaku and Sánchez

Meanwhile, Bayern Munich won in Ingolstadt, thanks to two very late goals. After 20 of 34 games, Bayern is a safe bet for the title, seven points ahead of Leipzig and already 15 points ahead of Frankfurt and Dortmund. Typical for Bayern, even when they don't play well, they win anyway.

Considering this is Germany we're talking about, weren't they already a safe bet for the title after 0 of 34 games?

THF, we should consider this is Bayern. They would probably end up like that in most leagues except La Liga haha

nah, I  don't think they would. The top English teams, Juventus and PSG would all be able to compete with them financially if they were in England, France or Italy. And if they were anywhere else then they wouldn't have the financial muscle to dominate so much anymore. The problem is that there's simply no other team in Germany that can compete with them on transfers, wages, or even chance of success so the best/most ambitious players there usually either want to go to Bayern or abroad.

That could be the case, but I still think they are half step above those clubs listed as of now. They would also benefit with even more money being on PL, but I'm not sure how it would affect. For me right now it's Real-Barca, then Bayern and then the rest.

would be a step down for Sanchez

if he wants domestic and CL titles, he won't be getting them at AC Milan any time soon
