Big praise coming from this site's number one Argentina fan.

I get your point, and they'll be the best midfield combo either way. But why not try to be the absolute maximum you can be, even when you're excellent? They'll be a brilliant midfield, but I feel they'd be less brilliant if Pedri plays AM and not CM (I know positions are fluid anyway). They...

I think that too. Ruiz would be most other nations' best midfielder in a double pivot, but for Spain he's third to them two geniuses.

Class defensive work rate and something that has been sorely missing in his game for many years. You can tell he likes playing for Barca more than he likes playing for Scum United. Then again, who wouldn't.

De La Fuente is beyond hope and redemption if he's watching Pedri right now and still think it's best to play him as AM. I know Spain have an embarrassment of riches in CM, but still. He and Rodri are the jewels in the crown.

He's despised by most on here. Feel bad for him that people don't like him as a goalkeeper.

I saw you say that above, just right now, and its a great way of putting it. His best is better than most others best, way above it. And his average, is above most other midfielders' very good. I forgot Rodri actually - he's maybe still second to him on form. But the fact that I am unsure of...

Michael Owen said that :lol::lol::lol:

Don't need to watch him every game to know what a special player and genius he is. He just is. @soul24rage says he needs to win more international trophies or boss a CL Final to be unanimously recognised as the best, and I get that. But for me, he's already the best midfielder (with Rodri) in...

They're trying to argue that Casemiro's second yellow wasn't a card, and not even a foul. The bias and delusion is ridiculous - it's as clear as a foul and yellow as you will ever seen. Santos is about to pass the ball wide into a dangerous position, but Casemiro stops him by dragging him back...

Agree, and I do respect you as a poster.

Don't wanna jinx it for you lads, but a banana skin of a game seems quite straightforward so far (in result, I am not watching). Someone wrote earlier that Barca had only scored more than one goal against Getafe once in the last 7 or 8 games.

Where would you rank Rivaldo? Tier 2? I would have him above Suarez, though Suarez was brill. But so was Rivaldo. As a teenager and younger man, Rivaldo was one of my favourite players. I rate him up there with Zidane - he was that good and underrated.

That's the arena in Arlington, Texas right? As a non American, is that any good? They have I think the most games for the World Cup next year - 9.

You're taking the piss, however some players do read fan forums lol. I would never do that if I was a player as many fans LOVE to complain.

Ok, fair enough. I will. I acknowledge he's a great striker in his prime, just think he's finished. But I will stop saying it, ok.

Didi was a great player by all accounts. I knew of him before. I didn't know he 'invented' the technique, though. He was far from a diddy.

He was scoring goals like that before Ronaldo joined him at United, to be fair. Unless by 'learnt' you mean by watching him at United first spell and Real Madrid and when Rashford was young etc.

Also (can't be bothered reading through the thread), I don't know much about this young player. Why did you sell him? Feel he would never make it in the first team?

Having read your post, you could be right looking the angle of his foot, the trajectory of the ball, and the power used.
