    Ousmane Dembélé

    I respect your opinion, just remain unconvinced. I guess time will tell. What I will admit is that my original post in here was unnecessarily inflammatory. Thank you for the discussion.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Also, this. Obviously if he 'falls out of form' I was right about him all along. That's the essence of my argument, surely - that he's in a period of form where he's playing way above himself. He will revert to being a good, but not excellent player. He didn't even play that well last night to...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Fair enough. I always rated Dembele but to me it is clear he won't maintain this level. I have seen it many times before - football fans love to be reactionary based on form. The point about the standards being lower now though is fair. There aren't many great wingers around really compared to...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Not sure where I said he is a poor player. He's always been a good, talented player. But he has flattered to deceive for many years. Also, a player can 100 percent have a good season which is surrounded by mediocrity throughout his career generally. The fact you think all it takes to prove...

    You really are a clown. Watching it again it is obvious it may well have been a skewed shot, might have been intended too. It can be debated, is reasonable to say either way, and acting like it's 100 percent intended and anyone who thinks it isn't is a moron is disingenuous. End yourself you MK...

    Fair enough. I think he was shooting but looking back maybe he meant it. I might be wrong, might be right, hard to say. Also, I said the goal was intended.

    As a white Northern European man, Ramadan knowledge isn't my forte.

    The goal is 100 percent intended, for me. But the assist is a skewed shot.

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Whatever fanboy, he doesn't even have the sense to angle that pass tonight, hence now he clearly lacks brain cells. I see him fail to spot passes all the time due to his poor vision. Kane definitely has a better all-round game and better passing game, denying that just makes you sound like an...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    I never doubted he has an amazing propensity for scoring. I am also not saying his all-round game was hopeless (it's miles better than Haaland's or Rashford's ever was). What I claim is that his all-round game is not the level needed of a player considered one of the best strikers of all time...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    I never claimed he wasn't an excellent player or one of the best strikers of recent decades. The problem is you and Tempt and others keep going on about goal records, stats and achievements. I rate players by their all-round game and eye test. I know I am in the minority in that in this...

    Great chop and assist (even if it was a shot). But that goal is something special. He has that thing the true geniuses have of making it look like he's moving in slow motion or at a different pace to everyone else. It seemed when watching that that time stood still as he grazed across the grass...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Fair enough if you didn't mean me, assumed you meant me as I have been prevalent on recent pages. Either way, I think you care far too much about Lewy. Who cares if some people don't rate him as much as you do? They're entitled to think that, it's not an echo chamber, is it?

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Nobody said Lewa was never good, that is just a strawman point proving you have no argument. Saying I envy him is laughable when I like him and find him very handsome, and when I defend objectively far better players over him eg Messi, Maradona, R9. If I was envious of someone being better at...

    Champions League 2024-25

    The decline of number 9s would appear to be a by-product of wing forwards being the in thing since Messi, Ronaldo, Robben, Salah, Bale etc all came about. Tactically, it is easier to score and create goals from these positions in the modern game, rather than through the centre.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Seen it so many times. A 'good' player playing like Maradona for a prolonged period, maybe even a whole season. Then reverts to type.

    Purple patch. He will be wank again this time next year.
