    It's more to do with the fact that footballers (including full backs) seem to be prioritised for pace, athleticism, strength, stamina now, than football abilities. That's just the way the game has gone. It's also not to say those players lack football ability. It's more a reflection on the game...

    Aye that makes a lot of sense. They don't in international qualifiers either.

    Premier League 25/26

    Fernandes is nothing special and actually a very poor hit and hope merchant, one of the most overrated players I have seen since starting watching football. However, trying to hype up Mainoo is not the way to go either, for me. Saying he's their best midfielder is like saying Peter Dinklage is...

    Told you, they're terrible. I wish people would stop pretending they have good players too - they don't. Majority of their squad would never be rated if they were wearing Sunderland tops (no disrespect to Sunderland). It's not just the coaches as these players fail under multiple management...

    It depends who you ask. Full-back has always been an extremely coveted position in Brazil. Nilton Santos, Djalma Santos, Jorginho, Cafu, Robert Carlos, Davi Alves, Marcelo to name just a few. You can argue they are the exception, but especially in modern football with inverted wingers, much of...

    Thanks for making the effort mate. Lovely fed in cross and that was an amazing finish. Look how he cushions it on the volley over the keeper. That's excellent

    That's fine. I am sure the highlights will be in the usual places. I will look later. Perhaps describe the goal for now though, if you like.

    I didn't see their goal but will find it later, or you could be a good man and post a link.

    Read this on another forum :lol: :lol: :lol: 'A long distance trip to a barren country with weird food, barbarian natives constantly mocked by the media for incest and who speak an unintelligible language, yet despite all those obstacles Kairat still managed to win.'

    Why? Just being honest. I am not saying he cannot contribute, just that I am not personally a fan.

    62 penalties in four years (well five if you include the start year of 2021) is fucking ridiculous.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    I mean I do disguise passes where I fake to shoot and pass in a direction I wasn't looking as I already know player is there, but I don't consider that a no look pass.

    Premier League 25/26

    Yes but the average was 4.61 correct outcomes out of 10. So 6 is above average for a hard week. There's a few I was gonna predict the other way too so there's potential there. Let's be honest, it will be extremely difficult to replicate what I did last season. It was partly skill, but a lot of...
