People are so determined to break the spirit of young people, particularly black people, who are achieving success and itβs very much rooted in jealousy.
People are so desperate to have a gotcha moment for Jude that they are forcing a negative narrative about him. They are so desperate to see him fail just so they can sit in their local pub and say I told you so.
They built him up from Dortmund to Madrid but when they saw wait, this little black boy might actually do incredible things they decided they need to humble him because they donβt want him to have βto much powerβ. They have to remind him who wields the whip.
They canβt stand to see a young man and particularly a young black man who is eloquent, focused, showing his talent & reaping the rewards of it. It irks them to not have something about him that they can feel is negative so they can feel better about themselves.
Pure βmean girlβ energy.
One of the things that is pitiful to watch is persons harping on βheβs so PR trainedβ because he speaks clearly and directly. As if itβs so offensive for a young man, particularly a black young man to be able to formulate an idea in his brain and speak in fluid sentences. Itβs another branch of they need to have something to humble him - he canβt be talented and intelligent because how will they, the people who are drowning in their own insecurities, feel better about themselves ?
Then we come to βforcing itβ ; Imagine complaining that he gave a disabled child a jacket in the rain. Are we sure Jude is the villain in this story Ryan? But I know how this script goes, once you become their target - just like Raheem, Sterling & Saka there is nothing you can do right. If Jude didnβt give that child his jacket, theyβd say he is cruel, when he does give the child - heβs a PR merchant.
βHasnβt had a good game in 2024β meanwhile by the end of the 2024 season Jude while playing majority games has - won la liga, won the champions league, won la liga player of the year and was real Madridβs top goal scorer. But hey, clearly since youβre so smart Ryan, Iβm sure weβll be seeing your above the rest punditry on sky sports tonight.
The people like that arenβt trying to give any real opinions on football they just want to break a man who is achieving unimaginable heights. They want to see him crack and if it were to happen they will toss him aside and move along. Then every once in a while say hmm you remember Jude? He had so much potential.
It is especially hurtful to see English people behave this way. Why are you trying to tear down your own local talent? Why do you want to destroy the potential legacy and English man can make ?
Itβs truly all disgusting and itβs ludicrous at this point to believe this level of bullying is warranted for any performance Jude could have had in a season with the results he has attainted.
βYeah, [he told me] just keep your head high. You know, he- I think he knows what tough times are, and I think he sees a rookie putting it in the wall on lap 1- not even lap 1, I thinkβ¦ he knows how tough it feels, and he came through to comfort me. It was a really nice gesture from him.β
Isack on Anthony Hamilton coming to comfort him.

Realistically I could never get rid of tumblr because it gives me the illusion of a community of strange young women all around my same age, all slowly figuring out how to live too
and yes you have to be black, this isnβt an all access typa club
tumblr is like a psych ward except no one gets better

the careful messiness of brunette curls has been charlesβs signature hairstyle for ages. it suits him, and when paired with his dimples and green eyesβitβs no wonder why every italian and monegasque prays for his success on sundays. well, maybe bleeding rosso corsa and winning two championships driving the famed red car are the proper reasons.
if only they knew that the artful styling of his curls is nowhere to be found after he sleeps. when he wakes, his hair is in absolute disarrayβthe deep brown ringlets are clumped together as they stick straight upwards and yet they manage to point in every direction possible.
when you first moved in with charles, you convinced him to buy a satin pillowcase to combat the bed head. it didnβt help, and neither did the bonnets you tried to have him wear. no matter if the ties were knotted, buttoned, or even velcro-strapped tightly, the bonnet would end up by the foot of the bed and his hair was in itβs usual disordered state by the early morning hours.
so, your morning routine begins with taming charlesβs severe case of bed head. he awakens slowly as your fingertips gently untangle the deep brown ringlets, moaning lowly and nudging his head into your hand like a large cat when your nails glide along his scalp. you carefully guide each curl back into their assigned positions, tutting disapprovingly at the one strand that never seems to stay in itβs place.
charlesβs chest shakes with a chuckle at your slight irritation and he shifts to meet your eyes, tenderly directing your hands away from his now orderly hair to his lips, pressing kisses to your fingertips before pulling you forward to cuddle into his chest.
you didnβt expect to have to deal with more than one head of messy hair. unfortunately, it seems like your daughter inherited her fatherβs bed head.
your mornings now consist of charles climbing out of bed at the first crackle of noise through the baby monitor, rushing to scoop the 9-month-old from her nursery and have her join the two of you in bed. he crosses the doorway with your daughter cradled to his bare chest and leo yipping at his feetβshe stares up at at him, a perfect reflection of the sea green pools of his eyes, the absence of a bonnet, and the chaotic sprawl of his brunette curls. youβve never been bothered with the fact that sheβs an exact replica of her father, as some tried to tease that your genes didnβt do more than deepen her complexion. however, you always joke back that it means that sheβs been blessed to be as beautiful as charles is.
she coos and babbles up at her father and he dutifully responds in french as if he understands her baby gibberish. he sits in bed with her on his lap and she beams, her little arms and grabby hands reaching towards you. you smile back widely, stealing her from his lap and greeting your babygirl with a flurry of kisses pressed all over her cute little face. her giggles ring through the air as you pull backwards to watch her laugh and, thereβs another trait she shares with her father; deep dimples decorate her chubby cheeks and you canβt help but press your thumb into them with adoration.
charles picks up his first baby, plopping the mini dachshund in bed, and leo bounds forward to press his own kisses to your daughterβs socked feet.
addressing charlesβs wild bed head will have to wait as you settle her back in his lap. you rest your head on his shoulder, apologizing for interrupting the clearly important conversation the two were having. you start fixing the jumbled ringlets on her scalp with the softest touch of your digits and she nuzzles up into your hand the same way her father does. he continues from were he left off, asking your daughter if she thinks a one-stop strategy is too ambitious for the next race and she babbles back to him in reply.
charles nods in agreement, promising her that regardless of a one-stop or two-stop, heβll bring back his third championship trophy for her.

I still cannot get over the fact that Oscar kept going. Like this man. he was fully stuck in the grass after his team had prevented him from going for the win before with fucking papaya rules, and yet he grit his teeth reversed out and actually scored two points. I cannot imagine what he was feeling that moment in the grass. they had literally marked him as out of the grand prix and he said actually no, fuck that. he is my driver of the day cause he should've won that.
