1193922259355865088 Hopefully this will provide some much needed perspective to the muppets calling Valverde a terrorist. Why would EV help De Jong? Does Frenkie have his nudes? Valverde is multitudes greater of a human being and football intellectual than any of you cretins will ever be...

CR was a magnificent free-kick taker in the early days of his career. Only since 2013 or 2014 did he really turn into shite at them. In fact he was so good at them in early part of his career he still has more total free-kick goals than Messi to this day despite Leo dominating in this area as of...

Declining at a rapid rate, but Sarri has shown himself to be a fraud and is unable to get his team to create chances despite it being his signature trait. Job is too big for him. CR would have been better off moving to PSG and pumping his stats against farmers with Neymar, Mbappe and Di Maria...

Aye. Just a week ago you were trying to pass off Arthur's pass to Semedo as an actual assist and added it to his tally of verifiable assists. Caught with your pants down now and forced to retreat. Remember the own goal Suarez caused at Old Trafford in the CL Quarters via a deflected header...

Yes, but that is not "textbook direct contribution" to a goal. That only applies to goals and actual assists. I would have no problem with the lad stating Arthur brings more to the game than basic statistics and citing those instances as examples, but attempting to pass them off as actual stats...

Rodri just needs a different manager to unleash his true potential.

Yes, but same thing happened to us at Anfield as well. We made stupid individual errors and Liverpool scored all their chances while we struggled to score our opportunities. But I have a feeling the two matches will not be judged similarly.

Pep would never allow his team to get humiliated at Anfield...

Being directly involved in a goal means scoring or assisting, not getting fouled in a dangerous area let alone passing to a player that wins a penalty or foul. :lol: Love how any touch he has before a goal eventually gets scored is counted as an assist or goal involvement. Pathetic. Fudge the...

City are so quick to switch off mentally. No surprises that they struggle in the CL.

Almost certain he scored 4 against Eibar in 2017.

His main attributes which are his link-up play and mobility are severely limited by the presence of Messi. He needs touches and must be the focal point of the attack to shine. Question is what else does he have to offer? Pace? No. Strength? No. Aerial ability? No. Dribbling? No. Long-range...

Guillermo Amor (director of institutional and sporting relations) "Valverde is a great guy, a great professional and everyone is delighted with him; I think there isn't much else to say." Boss is going nowhere this season. May as well cheer the team on and hope for victories.

He is still far and away the best no.9 in the squad. Griezmann cannot compete.

Not ready, not sure why we are so eager to turn the lad into another Bojan. Stop it with this mad bollocks. He is 17.

I feel bad for the bloke. Don't have any negative feeling towards him like I did with Dembele and Coutinho. He simply found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. Attitude and work rate is excellent. Not much else unfortunately.

Mostly awful like usual, but his flashes of magic produce a greater impact in the final third than anything Griezmann is able to do the entire match.

His technique is a joy to watch.

Manager certainly plays a role in a player's adaptation, but the system and natural fit with teammates is more important. Firmino would flop here under any manager as long as Messi continues to play his current free role. Wouldn't have what it takes to cut it as a 9 either. He plays with two...

120m "generational talent" officially benched by a 17 year old academy product. The absolute state of this player. :lol:
