In Conversation With: Astorré Cerebróne

We sat with, Astorre Cerebrone a passionate Valencianista to discuss what it's like being a Valencia CF Fan, and how the trophy drought, the ups, and downs that come with supporting a not-so-top performing club.

Cerebrone is no stranger to the stan side of the football community and his football opinions have gotten him both positive and negative reactions.

We discuss a bit on the bullying he has endured over the years as a reaction from other football fans on his football opinions, how he has been able to deal with the triggers that come with being racially abused, and if he sees a way out of the toxic stanship that has become a part of the football community.

🍿Football is the only drama series that never stops giving.
Even as one season is drawing to a close, there is already chatter about what to expect from the next one.

Ronaldo, Messi, Haaland, Neymar, Mbappe...

Who knows what will happen next? Haaland is at Manchester City’s doorstep but will he even complete the move? Will his signing change the face of the EPL forever?
What fate do you think awaits the remaining characters? Mbappe's move to Real Madrid has more twists and turns than most reality tv shows, but is Ronaldo set to smash more records and phones if he remains with this Manchester United side no matter how many Hags they get?

Messi...well Messi has had players leave clubs because they wanted to get out of his shadow only to find himself in another’s shadow. But if the Prince of Paris leaves for Madrid, under whose Shadow will he hide on his off days? Neymar? Di Maria or someone else?🍿

Every time we critic strikers in the Super Eagles, we do so with the mindset that a “Number 9” for Nigeria must be strong, resilient, and a lethal goalscorer. We have this mindset because we had Rashidi Yekini as a reference for what a striker should be.

Read about the life and times of the best to ever do it for the Super Eagles; The Goalsfather.

Liverpool should have enough to see off Villarreal, but so did Juventus and the mighty Bayern Munich!

EL Submarino Amarillo always prove to have more depth.
I wonder if it's complacency on their opponent's part or pure brilliance from Emery but either way, I'm definitely on the fence for this.
