Tragedy of a player.

All the talk about Haaland but just recently following 2 or 3 matches of Salzburg, I've been more impressed by Minamino and Hwang. Haaland is usually banging them in but these 2 guys create havoc all across the front line, they're everywhere. There was another guy last night against Liverpool...

I don't think he is the right fit for us. While he is fast I don't think his control in tight spaces or his ability on the ball is anything to brag about. He's still young and can improve but at this point it would be another pointless purchase imo. He wouldn't develop here worth a lick. The...

Yeah, all this forum loves Bartomeu, the whole board and hates Valverde. You can see all the posters gushing over how good of a sporting project these guys have or how good the transfers have been. The fact that Valverde is a mediocre coach has nothing to do with it. :rolleyes:

https://streamable.com/wwthq Well, if you look at the play you can see that Rakitic has Lukaku in front of him watching him begin his run. What does he do? He still barely gives a fuck. Absolutely infuriating. It's him and Lenglet that fucked up the most here. Edit: hell, he isn't even that...

I get what you're saying, however I disagree. That space in front of the defence is for the DM to cover. Maybe the CB needed to do a better job of blocking Martinez in the first place, but leaving that much space for Lukaku to exploit is a big mistake for a DM. The fact that he casually jogs...

Best player on the pitch tonight. Sell Dembele and Coutinho and get this guy. Should cover his fee while saving money on wages.

I don't know what were people watching. The goal scored by Lukaku was mostly on him. Caught ball watching, casually jogging back as usual while Lukaku was running unimpeded at our back line. And everything else was so damn average. For all the unwarranted shit he takes, the opposite is also...

Then they'll be fast to slander Busquets for the same kind of performances or even better than the one Rakitic just had. They're both past it against the top level teams, praising them after good matches against the likes of Mallorca scream of desperation.

That run by Frenkie in the second half and how Mallorca's players were positioned before his run reminded me of a famous play from last year, but only in reverse. :redbeard:

So can we talk about Pique and Lenglet? I know we won last night but this pair is disaster waiting to happen once again. Nonexistent man marking at times, utter lack of pace, getting dribbled like nobody's business and in Lenglet's case, soft as hell. The only quality that they still have is...

200m for De Jong and it would be better business than getting this guy for free.

Well, I don't want to see new players specifically for resting other players, I want to see more unused players have a chance against a lower level LA Liga team where the result won't be that hard to achieve. When will these younger players have a chance to contribute if not for matches like...

Came here to suggest something similar but a bit different. Something like: Stegen Roberto Todibo Lenglet/Umtiti Firpo Arthur Frenkie Alena Griezmann Messi Fati If it doesn't work, even if we play against a lower half team because Valverde doesn't coach worth a shit, we can always change at...

Found out who Copperpot is. One of CRonaldo's sisters. :crbust:

Pretty much. Just to add to the list of players who had a better season than the Portuguese, Allison was also more influential in the success of his teams. He should've been 9th at best.

Surprised is not the word I'd use since Mendes and R7 do have the media in their pocket. But yeah, there are at least 5 guys that were clearly better than him. Messi, VVD, Mane, Lewa, Salah. This not even including the likes of Bernardo Silva and Sterling who both have won the PL which is vastly...

I would gladly lend him a gun. :redbeard:

I wouldn't have any problems if some Liverpool fan came and argued that VVD or Mane deserved the award more than Messi or that they were better. Even though I'd disagree, I could still see arguments in their favor. But to come here and say that CRonaldo had more of a shout to Ballon d'Or than...

Truly baffling.
