    Premier League 2018/19

    In summer Pep should leave in Mancity back to Barca and bring Sterling, kevin de bruyne, or who ever fits in our team. Time to end this misery of EV who acts uninspiring & weak like an magistrate official 2 years before retirement.

    Premier League 2018/19

    it is astonishing how some people mis-interpret the club - they see that Liverpool has won the CL and is currently one if not the best club in - and thus 80% of their players must be outstanding/worldclass. I do not agree ... These players developed in Liverpool, they form together a great...

    Premier League 2018/19

    whenever I run into someone who is an active trainer of a real club or playing as a pro - I ask him how much (positive/negative) influence a trainer /manager can have.... I was getting mixed answers. Klopp shows that being on the extreme end, he can make all the difference. With dortmund he...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    found something here... maradona 1990 naked that was already rather at the end of his career ... however by the standards of 1990 that was not completely off - though it is clearly for today. Also because today there are dangerous medications that help you shrinking fat cells - were not that...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Very good point. Something that might be overelooked is that body-physics measurements, do not translate easily into benefits/cons in complex movements, like running, according to bio-mechanics. Usain Bolt (tall, long legs) bolt Michael Johnson (normal size, short legs for his size) johnson...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    I agree .... on photos - Maradonna was a bit heavier just the way he was built ... which also might play into his acceleration which was lower compared to messis prime... but in 30 years training methods have advanced so comparing is pretty useless...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    I agree with modern rules, referees, perfect pitches, all seems to be tailored for Messi. However, Maradona was way more athletic so the heavy ball, & dresses; he was rdy for this. He was more like a dwarf with enormous legs. :-) About the high level of defenders, I have doubts that back then...

    Lliga | Round 18: FC Barcelona - Deportivo Alaves 4-1

    IHO media /journalists/commentators are not free to say their opinion, but please the masses. Interchangeability of personnel and media being consumed through free streams does not help either. Many of these guys are just puppets. In Austria we had once a tennis journalist in the Austrian...

    Lliga | Round 18: FC Barcelona - Deportivo Alaves 4-1

    Alaves was no real challanger. In the first half, the amount of chances we created 2, despite the fact that we had 74% possesion, is a bad joke and shows how easy they took the match. It was more stand-by-mode than active doing...:rolleyes: Good to see that Melo, Demebele was in the camp nou ....

    Lliga | Round 18: FC Barcelona - Deportivo Alaves 4-1

    I fully agree. However, some people have a different approach - they either want something great in their life because their own situation sucks anyhow - so they become a "winner-joiner" - others can not deal with being helpless in watching things going bad. Those are the most typical situation...

    Lliga | Round 17: FC Barcelona - Real Madrid 0-0

    Barca was lucky to get a draw. Lenglet caused a penalty against Varane but not given. Thanks to the VAR the 10cm offside position was seen. If anyone can explain why Fati came on for Griezz - pls. tell ! Fati is too fragile for such a game - first touch and get checked into the ribs and he...

    Champions League

    You are right - they do not have players that have international experience. We DO HAVE them, galore! But experience cuts both ways; if you say the world "ROMA!" loudly, they collapse and start gasping. :unsure:
