Yeah some shockers there by Muller. At least he got Ribery vs Ronaldo right, though.

Yeah they capitalised when football was entering the satellite TV era, when the CL and PL were formed/rebranded (I have some conspiracy theories that the PL were in bed with United, Scudamore even said the PL brand needs a strong United) and then they solidified that in the 2000s with the...

Plus the general level of football knowledge on reddit is appalling. Especially r/soccer and r/PremierLeague. And unlike King Leo, who is American but comes across as European in talking and understanding, these guys talk like Americans constantly using phrases like 'this guy is beast, bro'

It shows how bad football fandom has become when 'most supported club on Reddit' (full of 12 year old Americans who have followed football for 10 minutes) and 'biggest online forum' are considerations in the real world for which club is a bigger club. Biggest fanbase also means nothing - just...

Or how about this, in the 80s and early 90s remember 'Liverpool's spending during the 1980s was substantial, with notable signings like Peter Beardsley (£1.9 million in 1987) and Dean Saunders (£2.9 million in 1991). '

Just because I can't be bothered typing it and reading it myself. Bear in mind how much these fees would be now. ' In the 1990s, Liverpool's transfer spending was considered significant for the time, with notable signings like Stan Collymore (£8.5m), Paul Stewart (£2.3m), Nigel Clough (£2.75m)...

Liverpool have never spent big? :lol:

Was always partial to watching wee Insigne myself.

Read someone say that on Redcafe. Now you're plagiarising ideas on one forum and passing them off as your own on another :lol:

The thing is I like him still - he was good friend and showed me his kind side when I was mentally down. But now he holds a grudge he cannot get over because I called him a plastic Liverpool fan. I apologised but he has thus far refused to let it drop, for over a month at least now. So what do...

Not enough to not pretend Cristiano Ronaldo and Lewandowski are better than him though :lol: @KingLeo10

PSG are probably the better and more entertaining team so in that sense it's ok. But I get ur point.

Yeah well done to Napoli, the club of Diego. Good to see them win it (again).

They were woeful in between too - even got relegated 6 years after winning the European Cup and in the 80s were mostly a cup team, like they are now. Ferguson struggled for years too and could easily have been sacked too had things turned out slightly differently. fair play to Busby for...

Nobody is denying any of that. The point is that he - nor many players - is nowhere near good enough to transform them on their own. He'd help a bit but if United ever wanna be a top PL team again they need better than him. I know that sounds mad when he's just won Serie A, but it's different...

Also, he's obviously good enough to start for United - their team is wank. The point is he doesn't improve them much and certainly wouldn't help them get anywhere near top 6.

Yeah that's just them being knee-jerk like they always are. Quite a few sensible ones telling you he'd never have fit in to their system anyway, and they never deployed him right. Like I say, he's the difference between 16th and 11th at best. Their problems run infinitely deeper than selling...

Yeah but they're a great team as a collective. The coach has them in their proper roles, doing what gets the best out of them. Spinazzola was a good player a few years ago though.

Anyway, it's not to slag off McSauce. He has done very well in his goalscoring role. Hats off. Just all the wankery about United selling him being a huge mistake is bollocks. Had he stayed they might be a bit better but they'd still be well in the bottom half. His 7-12 goals won't make much...

I expect Inter to win the league next season. They have the best squad by far. They should really have won it this season as Napoli slipped up plenty of times, but Inter fucked up. Napoli are the sort of club who can win the odd title (like they did a few seasons ago) but they aren't a...
