Who is supposed is the presence in the box? Certainly won't be Messi, and Griezmann is not suited to that role. We were able to play without a true no.9 during the Pep days because that team was the best ever at penetrative passing and clever link-up play to exploit the spaces. This squad is...

I don't think he will ever regain his dynamism. It has been declining for years now, but these latest strings of injuries have probably knocked out any of it he had left for good. He will still produce best in the world, otherworldly magic once he regains form, but his style of play is not...

But, but I though he had proven himself after two good matches against relegation fodder? All he needed to do was get away from Valverde I was told...

How is your mental health holding up? Am really worried for you after reading some of your recent posts. Maybe take a day off mate?

Good at sprinting in a straight line when the other team is pushing forward. Unfortunately for the lad he doesn't know how to play football.

He's playing like an old man. His class is still undeniable though.

What an insecure bunch. Ronaldo is almost 35 now. Even the best forwards who age exceptionally tend to start declining at a rapid rate around this point. Taking cheap shots at him now just comes off as very petty. I don't see the appeal in revelling in the natural decline of a player.

Nobody will remember or care about this if we go crashing out of the CL again like everyone on here predicts and in many cases are hoping for. Barto will be in the last year of his presidency. Messi will be 33. Fans will grow impatient. The board, the dressing room and fans will all be...

It is normal. Especially considering the fact he was never all that obsessive to begin with and has likely come to the realization that the better part of his career is done with. That does not mean he is going to stop being the best in the world anytime soon, but just look at the bloke: He...

It does not matter what the media are spouting. Look at the betting odds where actual money is on the line. VVD is the clear favourite.

Van Dijk won the media voting for The Best award in a landslide. I don't think Messi has or will have done enough come December 2nd to sway the journalists to his side. The Clasico being moved to mid-December also hurts the bloke tremendously. That was the marquee match where an iconic...

:lol: And the unravelling begins. Find one post of mine where I wish death on any player. Just one. I dare you. I also advise you stop pretending to be a thug on the internet. No you are not cool you twat, it makes you look more insecure than anything else.

Imagine gassing up Atleti and Real like they were any real threats to us in the league all throughout the summer, fear mongering, speaking as if we would be lucky to make the top 4 this season and still having to watch us sit at the top of the table 9 matches into the season despite a...

Toxic because I don't wet the bed about Rakitic getting 10 minutes in a decided match. I guess I am also toxic for simply not considering Puig a gem. Love to see it. That's a low bar of toxicity if I've ever seen one. I also take this piss out of and am brutally honest about objectively one of...

Aye. You really got me this time. Truth is I only reply to posts when I want to make a point or engage in further debate. I read his post in the Suarez thread and to be honest I agree with many of his criticisms of Valverde to a certain extent. I obviously do not agree with it all...

I agree that Puig is quite a talented player. Fati is a cut above everyone else for me, while Todibo and Puig are the other two talents I can see maybe carving out a role in the first team in the future if things go right for them. I wouldn't consider Puig a "gem" by any strech of the...

There always needs to be something to piss and moan about. Winning 3-0 with Valverde playing the forum favourite Busi-Frenkie-Arthur midfield is not enough. Rakitic played 10 minutes? How dare he! #ValverdeOut :lol::lol::lol: The bloke thinks Alena and Puig are "gems." No more needs to be...

Fair enough. I think the lad has an exceptional mentality for his age as well, but mentality alone does not make a player. He will surely improve, but I am not convinced it will be at the magnitude to ever reach the zenith of CBs in world football. His leadership, mentality and physique have...

:lol::lol::lol: Have you seen the state of this forum? You are simply parroting the same shite said by 95% of the other users. Valverde says or does literally anything at all and you sheep screech at the top your lungs in unison without any critical thought whatsoever. You are no...
