He's actually quite decent at them when he catches them well. I have no idea of his ratio but I have seen him score a few belters. He's missed plenty too but that's par for the course. He could score a few if given opportunity to take them. I might write out a list of Rashford pros and cons on...

Good list - I'd personally put Barca under Enrique a bit higher and maybe move them around with United of 07-09. I feel the Bayern treble season was sensational too, though they didn't sustain that (relatively speaking). Overall though it is a good list and well thought out, and I salute the...

Fair enough. I don't agree with you on Rashford that much (though I acknowledge he could do well under Flick) but I respect that nobody is right and nobody is wrong and it's a matter of opinion. I am not sure which way it will go for him at Barca, in all honesty. Could honestly see him doing...

Lol I do feel bad now. I slagged you off a lot because I thought you were slagging me. Tbh, I do strongly disagree with you on various football things, but was only being a dick cos I thought you were being a dick to me first. I do feel bad now. But overall, you have gone back up in my...

True, but they're rubbish now too and a big reason for that is Fernandes (and Rashford in the past). These guys force the team to play counter-attack football with their one dimensional need space styles of play, Hollywood ball spamming. It is never going to be successful. A smart club would...

Part of the reason they're a hopeless club on the pitch is building around moments players like he and Fernandes, forcing them to play outdated counter-attack style in the 2020s.

Nope.

Yeah that was a strawman by Catta. Not wanting Rashford doesn't make someone a transfer muppet who thinks only pie in the sky deals like Isak, Barcola and Konate are preferable. It's obvious you meant you're better off with no signing rather than Rashford, and I tend to agree. He tried to put...

It's very clear (from someone who watches every United game, me) that certain people in here haven't watched him play much and are going by out of context stats, his hype in the English media, and highlights videos. His all-round game is absymal, even when he does score. He's also much better...

Amad does look a talent, though a lot to prove still, good player though. I actually think Cunha would play left and Amad right in the two, so it's more Mbeumo that is in his way (alluded to that above). So Amad might be repurposed as a RWB (and looks like we agree he would be wasted there). Of...

Yeah that is a fair point too. Just think overall he was at his best at Arsenal. He was getting older (about 30) when he came to Barcelona and seemed to have lost a bit of pace.

Fair enough. I am more judging Henry by his Arsenal days than his Barca. When he came to Barca he was still good but in decline - he peaked around 2002-2006 for Arsenal and France I think.

I won't talk about the rest of their team, but on paper they have some good attackers - Pedro, Estevao, Neymar, Vinicius, Raphinha, Endrick, Rodrygo, Cunha. Probably missing some. But dig deeper and plenty of those players have issues with something. Neymar is getting older and his body is...

Yeah they are good, solid PL players, but obviously not superstars. Still a big upgrade on the likes of Hojlund, Zirkzee, Garnacho though, who I really think are poor. Also, I guess they'll convert Amad to wing-back now. I actually think he is better as one of the two attacking midfielders. I...

Yeah I am gonna try to watch tonight's game. Looking forward to watching Spain's passing game. Will see if the Swiss can keep them out.

Signed Mbeumo apparently - deal more or less done with medical to come. Paid more than they thought they'd have to and they're loading more on their massive debt via amortising over I believe it is four payments. On the football side, It could work out well for them - as said I do rate he and...

Henry was a fantastic player, but most of his best work came at Arsenal and within the confines of the PL. Eto'o did more on bigger stages but Henry was the more gifted footballer technically for me. He was a better dribbler for me, slicker and perfected that opening the body up and curling into...

Yeah good shout.

Love that shade of purple.

Anyone But England :kounde:
