Probably not drawing the right conclusions out of my post but yes, I seriously do not have the time to respond to ignirance.

Yep, issues that are dealt with in different papers and/or journals, but generally I understand your skepticism.

Haha, the good thing is, they are not anecdotes in those studies but good data to try to do some social science that is generalizable. If you are interested, I can send you some stuff on domestic violence and the NFL, career choices of footballers, etc. etc.

Yes no research is fully perfect. As for the Impact Factor, that is not the only metric that is important for journals and researchers. General journals have higher impact factors than specific ones etc. There is little chance a football (sports) related study will be published in Nature...

This is a more recent paper: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ecin.12280 The authors also summarize lots of previous papers, check them out on Google Scholar: No Effects: Poulsen, R. “Should He Stay or Should He Go? Estimating the Effect of Firing the Manager in Soccer.”...

Contrary to what people post here, I didn't think the game was that bad. It was high intensity, almost as every clasico and we played at Bernabeu. Given our squads average age, stamina, the inconsistent performances we show, I was not expecting to win there. It was, however, unfortunate, that RM...

At least he teaches the ignorant EPL fans one or two things about football. Depending on how City get penalized for cooking their books, I expect him to stay there for a couple of more challenging seasons. Let's see whether he goes to Italy then or whether we can convince him to return.

In my book, there is no award where anybody can compete with Messi, but why should I try to convince a child? I'd rather want Messi to win a couple more CLs and La Liga trophies, but ok, have fun with your Ballon D'Or. Wait, an award that says close to nothing about a player.

Him going to Madrid is more likely. For any French player to play for their idol Zidane must be a great thing. I don't see us getting him if RM is in the market too, which they clearly are.

We should have a new board rule to ban anyone that even comes close to mentioning Messi winning or loosing the Ballon d'Or. I have never seen more pathetic and outright idiotic comments than those ones.

I think it would help if people calmed down here. He'll finish the season and most probably he will leave. Business and management, thank god, doesn't work like fans want it to.

Mostly it's done that way, they part ways in "agreement".

Thank god for some people loyalty still means something. Even a hypothetical Messi-Exit would have destroyed any dreams of achieving anything within the last years. But I usually don't give much shit about these rumours. We will probably read more about it when his official biography is out...

Yes Atletico's style would be different, so better suited to play against Liverpool, also more physical.

Seems like one is jealous his dick is not getting sucked by beautiful women, work on it, you might have success too. Honestly, the way you and your likes post here, I doubt you feel anything beyond your own ignorance. Even if you, somehow, made it out of high school. So no need to continue this...

Don't be that person. If people on this forum are throwing tantrums like this, you can certainly believe they have emotions and feelings too including feeling like idiots. But my comment was not about being compassionate, more like the fucked up situation. It will be hard for this team to forget...

The utter ignorance of a lot of users on this forum for any feelings beyond their own personal one speaks volumes.

Still devastated, can't imagine how the players must feel.

The melt-down in the second half really hurt. In the first, at least we looked like we could easily find chances to score, and we did find them.
