True, it is unnecessary, especially for a player on your own team. But think it is just a bit of banter. Happens with other footballers too. 'CR150' for example, allowing for the fact he is a Barca enemy rather than ally.

Also, I would like you to acknowledge that 'even Messi makes the odd bad pass' was a silly point in trying to defend Lewy's bad passing ability. You have kept ignoring my point there. I know you're better than that.

What are you talking about, acrobatic goals lol? What the fuck? I am saying there might be a moment or two in a match where he has the chance to slide someone in, and he fucks it up and the chance is gone. Or he has a chance himself and misses, like he did last night. As I just said, I might...

I don't hate him, he's a good lad and very attractive (probably accounts for much of his popularity). Would I get on with him and wanna hang out with him if I knew him? Most likely. Would I expect anything of him in a CL Final aged 36? No. They are separate matters. I understand why he is...

Anyway, can't be bothered anymore. As I said in the Dembele thread, life is way too short to talk about prima donna footballers who are irrelevant to us. Especially when I am not even a Barca fan, unlike most on here. I am gonna go have a wank and go for a walk. Get out in the fresh air rather...

This is like saying he is lethal and finishes everything that comes his way, lol. He has missed loads of easy chances this season. He just gets so so many that he has still scored a lot.

Always comes back to goals with you. When will you finally get it? In a big, tight game against equal opposition, the chances and situations will be much fewer far between. In that scenario his racking up goals (mostly against cannon fodder) won't help him. He won't stand up to be counted when...

You debate in bad faith. Trying to excuse Lewy's poor passing with 'well, Messi makes the odd bad pass too'. Like saying 'well Ribery might be ugly, but Brad Pitt has bad hair days too'. I refuse to debate with someone who makes such poor faith arguments, whether unintentional or deliberate.

Exactly, it is about perception and hype. The same way some clowns act like Cristiano Ronaldo 'led' real Madrid to all those CLs, when actually what he was was the tip of the spear while the other players set him up with loads of chances. He was also poor in most finals and bailed out by his...

Anyway, my contention is that Lewy is an extremely well-liked individual and people overrate him because they like him and it feels awful to them to say anything negative about him. Brilliant player in his prime but not as exceptional as he is claimed to be. For instance, if Lionel Messi...

Yeah it is different on here. But this is the only place he is criticised, as I have noted before. This place is an outlier - in the wider world people lick his arsehole. Only here where people watch him every week we see the truth of how bad his all round game is. Everywhere else people make...

I mean seriously, defending Lewy's generally horrendously poor passing ability by saying 'even prime Messi makes the odd poor pass'. Like saying 'Jordan Henderson makes a lot of poor passes but even Maradona made the odd poor pass, get off his case'. Just sheer disingenuous, ultra bias towards...

Because it is a theme with Lewy. Is this how ridiculous the arguments are getting in this thread? Implications that Raphinha and Yamal are not better passers than him, or more creative, because they fuck up some passes too? Equating Lewy's passing with Messi's because 'once in a while even...

Sheer lies. He fucked up a very crucial pass which you have wholly omitted from your assessment. Missing that pass in a bigger game is the difference between progression and elimination. Acting like he shouldn't play a part in build-up is ridiculous. You know what you are doing. Stop being so...

Anyway can't be bothered arguing anymore. Life is far too fucking short to waste debating about PSG and fucking Ousmane Dembele, or football in general. That goes for the rest of you here too - we all need to get lives, rather than spending all our days on here talking about a game where the...

Nobody has denied that. What people (Monte and me) are baffled by are claims they're a top 2 team in Europe, the best PSG team ever, would destroy Bayern, and that Dembele is leading them to CL glory, lol.

This reminds me of last season when Arsenal were the media darlings and everyone's best team in Europe. Look at them now. And don't use the injuries excuse - they were struggling prior to that.

Never said they aren't a good team, but top 2 team in Europe lol? Did anyone say that before they played Liverpool off the park last week? It is just sheer reactionary bollocks. Yeah they can beat anyone, they can also lose to anyone. That's football. I honestly think some of you guys are...

You're the one lacking nuance. Thinking that Dembele is 'leading PSG'. Black and white thinking lad.

What have they done to show they are the 'best PSG team of all time'? Maybe they are, but they have done and won fuck all so far.
