I’d hire you as my personal chef

Same. The time difference is too hard for me to be a functioning adult and also watch them. US matches are probably the only ones where I need to worry about friends spoiling the results so may watch tonight live and then put my phone on DND for the 3amEST game.

The fact they have that kind of money to blow on one player is wild and scary

Just curious, are we sure the numbers reported are “net gain” and not “number of new subscribers”? Distinction being “number of new subscribers” would be all the people that signed up, and “net gain” would be all the people that signed up & subtract those that canceled?

Earnings reports are always full of word tricks to paint the prettiest picture so I’m just curious if we know the net number?

For example, all those articles that came out a week after the change went into effect were bullshit bc they didn’t take into account people who canceled and still had days left til their end of month, instead they only captured the 3 days after the policy change and Netflix got all the media to report this awesome stat for them.

With Europa Conf League games as well, I’m unsure what to expect honestly. We’ve never had to deal with such a busy schedule so it could hurt our chances in the league.

This signing and others are not only about improving our 11, but moreso our depth to handle the increase in games

I’m watching, but on dvr. I’m in the US and have 2 young kids so only way to watch for me is to watch on dvr during the workday.

Other than US matches, I should be able to avoid spoilers from friends which is only way I’d get spoiled

Damn I didn’t realize he went exclusive to Spotify. I listen to his podcast but very much on my own time and have like 50+ episodes in my queue I want to listen to someday so didn’t notice.

I tend to really only stay up to date with Conan, Smartless and sports pods

Was hoping Coby would escape Chicago for a team where he’d get more opportunities

Thank you for this, one part I'm still struggling with and would appreciate help...

How do I subscribe to a community that is on another instance and have it show up on my account? Example - I have an account here at lemmy.world, but there's https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy community and I'd love to see their posts in one place on my lemmy.world account. How do I do this? If I navigate to that link, it asks me to create a lemmy.dbzer0 account to subscribe so i dont think i'm following the correct pathway

eta - nevermind i figured it out. going to leave my comment here for others though

so what you have to do is search for that community on your own instance and then select it and subscribe that way. Can't follow the link directly to the instance, but rather have to search using lemmy.world's search and follow the link from there. So for instance: https://lemmy.world/c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

(if there's a more straightforward way, i'd still appreciate tips)

maybe they dont want to sell him at all and he himself hasn't expressed a desire to move on

Think from their perspective - Osimhen led the club to their first Serie A title since 1990 and led them further in the Champions League than ever before. What's the price tag for that type of club success? Selling him for 100m gets you like 2, maybe 3 solid players but you're still likely short of his goal production.

As an example- Jack Grealish and Villa. They bought Ings, Bailey, and Buendia with the 100mil and none of those 3 have been worth a damn really and Ings was already sold off at a loss. Recruitment is hard and when you have a bonafide star and he's not actively asking to be transferred, put whatever damn price he's actually worth to you on his head versus what all the big clubs want to actually pay. There's zero obligation that you HAVE to sell to bigger clubs.

fwiw though - i saw their new contract they're offering him has a 160mil release clause, not 180
