I bet if he didn't make the tackle everyone would be like, "oh my god this just proves Alves isn't committed, he should have tried to win the ball, etc."
I didn't think it was a foul at all, by the way
Based on his decent few months in Serie A, maybe. Looked nowhere near good enough at Chelsea, sure they didn't really believe in him but why would it be any different at Barcelona?
Yes, I understand that Aston Villa and Newcastle were really good/decorated in the past. That has nothing to do with whether they deserve to be relegated; based on their current season's performances, they deserve to go down.
Not sure what history has to do with "deserving" to go down or not...
If you got all As in high school, do you not deserve to get fail things in college?
