What team is the >Schalke of >your league? Is there some team that's more >Schalke than >Schalke themselves?
For Americans: >your """"""""""""""""sport""""""""""""""""
For Poortuguese: Nobody cares about ur league
Until last year it was Feyenoord for sure and might still be despite their title
Leverkusen is the >Schalke of the Bundesliga
What does it mean to be >schalke?
Poor managment?
Shit players?
>>77235623
Vizekusen automatically comes second in terms of >schalke-ness. It's in their nature.
Valencia
>>77235307
Arsenal is the bong version of >Schalke.
>>77235651
good players, infuriating results, embarrasing media coverage, deluded fans, memes
>>77235307
it was feyenoord but they actually won the league last season
>>77235651
I don't think there is a word in the Englisch language that properly describes what it means to be >Schalke. I recommend you add it to your language as a loan word.
>Schalke is not a concept, a feeling, a situation or a way of life, it's its own plane of existence.

>Bordeaux 2009
>Marseille 2010
>Lille 2011
>Montpellier 2012

Hard to have a >Schalke when 7 (seven) teams win championships
>>77235689
huh, I somehow lately felt that Tottenham might develop into a bong >Schalke, but Arselel is way too >Schalke to ignore
>>77235767
Actually, post-2005 Liverpool up to last year was the most >Schalke. Arsenal also doesn't fit because they don't fire their manager every year and promise an Umbruch.

It's an issue of Translating a non-latin name into a latin language. Arabic has 3 vowels (o, I, A) compared to latin (A, I, E, O, U)
>>77236331
But are the names actually different in Arabic?
please watch our league

>2 (two) league titles
>a lot of literal gypsy fans
>claim they are the biggest club in the country
Hibs
hibs'd it in scotland now means to fuck up something/choke.
>>77236429
If we transcribe the name letter for letter in latin it would be MHMD. But Arabic has diacritics (symbols on top of letters) which dictates the pronunciation. Why it's Mohammed and Muhammed? Their parent is a pretentious fuck who thinks his spelling is the correct one
>>77235671
Nah, it's clearly Atlético. They are the butt of every joke and they are known for their legendary bad luck.
