    When I first thing that popped into my mind when I saw him play as a youth was “ he is going to manage a third third middle eastern club someday”

    It a bit mad the level they are at. They are literally playing matches on a school sports field alot of thr time. The lower leagues over here seems to attract a mix of ex Prem and EFL players about to retire and a lot of younger african players. As you go through the league you start to see a lot of Brazilian players too.

    Jonjo Shelvey has retired from playing and will take over as manager of third-tier United Arab Emirates side Arabian Falcons FC.



    The 34-year-old had been playing for the Dubai club, who were formed in 2023, since September - alongside ex-Manchester United midfielder Ravel Morrison.

    Former Crystal Palace midfielder Jason Puncheon is the club's co-owner and head of football operations.

    Absolute nonsense. To be honest your post os more offensive than a thumbs up. In some arab countries? Like saying sosmething that may be offensive in luxemborg will be offensive in Europe. The two ae not the same,.also Dubai is a very International city no one os offended by a thumbs up here.

    To be fair you are both right.

    In some Middle eastern countries a 'thumbs up' gesture is seen as offensive. But absolutely no one in Dubai would be offended by it.
