Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

Cunha plays for Man Utd. Not many clubs bigger than that.

Paging Endrick - Brazil needs a free scoring No. 9.

There is also an ongoing theory about Endrick being excluded simply because he isnt sponsored by Nike.

IDK if it is true, but it is kinda bizarre the most controversion Ancelotti decidsion to the starting 11 to be sponsored by Nike or Adidas, while Endick is sponsored by "New Balance"

Ancelotti has never been a manager to let sponsors decide his lineup.

Closest it came was at Real Madrid when Bale *had* to play despite having just signed and not trained whole summer. He played him and Bale promptly got injured.

But Ancelotti is well used to managing big egos.

I have seen a video of Casemiro doing a ridiculous two footed tackle from behind on Endrick, which could have easily snapped his leg in two like a twig if his foot was not off the ground. That's the kind of tackle you get red carded for plus suspension. And he did it *in training*, against a teammate. Not something I ever thought I would see Casemiro do, and I've watched him play a lot while he was at Man Utd.

Anyway, while no one else is scoring Ancelotti simply can't afford to keep ignoring Endrick.

I'm too American for this conversation
