“I’m Not Dissing Harry Maguire” Alphonso Davies Says As He Disses The Hell Out Of United’s Captain

Canada and Bayern Munich star Alphonso Davies is learning how one simple comment can create a media whirlwind. I hate to add onto the storm, but as someone who writes about soccer, I must answer the question people might be asking. That question being: what did Alphonso Davies say about Harry Maguire?

Dimitri Payet Just Hit The Volley Of Your Dreams

Ninety-nine percent of the time, this doesn’t work. No matter how many times you try it in practice, no matter how perfect your technique, the 20-yard-first-time-shot-off-a-corner-kick routine almost never comes off.
