it should be said, already deserves to be in the conversation as one of the world’s best strikers of the ball

Nope. Billy made it seem like he was the playmaker alongside Kante last season, but that’s not the case at all. In any case, he’s gone.

Chelsea’s not running a 3-4-3 exclusively this year, it’ll be a fair amount of the 3-5-2. It’s not Bakayako or Kante with Fabregas, it’s both with him. Not sure how you can say we’ve strengthened the back line with young center backs when we loaned out Zouma (our best young center back). Matic is not much of a passer,…

And somehow that’s the least-concerning thing Billy got wrong about Chelsea.

Dembele’s the one who might actually move, Coutinho isn’t leaving.

Deadspin please get someone better than Billy to write for you about soccer. I’ll do it and I’m not even a good writer. He just doesn’t understand the sport or how things work. Coutinho isn’t moving.

You do remember that Liverpool held onto Suarez for an extra year in basically the same circumstances, right? Post-World Cup sale for him, same for Coutinho.

Billy, two weeks ago: There’s no way Neymar leaves

Good Lifehacker posts are when you give us interesting and unique perspectives on how we can improve something in our lives.

Luis Suarez would like a word with you

This is dumb on so many levels

Nope. Barca isn’t the second-best team in the world either. This is the same Barcelona that needed a miracle to get past PSG last year.

Me: Billy wrote a new article on soccer, let’s see if he’s actually got anything interesting or at least factual to say

Meaningless as in because Barcelona won, Real’s now under a tremendous amount of pressure and the La Liga race is going to be incredibly exciting, right? Even before they lost Ramos to what’s likely a multiple match suspension, RM now needs a result in their game in hand to retake the lead and then has to outplay…

Billy’s post about soccer is the top post on the soccer subreddit again? This is SHOCKING.

I don’t actually care who’s cool or not on the internet, I just find it funny that there’s a lot of good, interesting soccer content on Deadspin but Billy’s articles are consistently things that get posted to the soccer subreddit a few hours before his articles go up. Even smaller stories that aren’t related to big…

Wouldn’t it be easier to just link directly to /r/soccer instead? Billy lifts 90% of his articles, videos and other things he posts directly from there.

Uhhhhh I don’t think you got that joke...

“From an accounting standpoint, you are wrong. The mere filing of a lawsuit does not in and of itself create a liability.”

That’s not a Power Clean, that’s just a Clean. Power Cleans land in a quarter squat, he landed full squat. Not that it’s any less impressive, but a 390lb Power Clean would be insane - world class lifters max out around 500lbs on that lift. A Clean involves greater movement of the body, less movement of the bar.
