No problem mate. and on the other post thanks, yeah I am torn on the barca and athletic games. They're the hardest to call. Might change but will kick myself if my original prediction ends up correct. It's happened before.

@fergus90 Just continuing what I said in the Palmer thread mate, keeping threads on topic. Strong chance of beating Celtic at end of January. How about winning in Monaco, that could happen too. You might finish with 19/24 points. That would likely get you top four at worst.

Iniesta when Spain came to play Scotland in October 2010 at Hampden in a Euros qualifier. Could say the same for most of their team - I believe Xavi wasn't fit but Alonso was. They won 3-2, though. I was at the game. Also, good to see you online mate. Congrats for last night, good chance of...

Yeah I like most people here.

I understand. I just don't think about it like that. You do and fair enough, just a difference in mentality there.

Yeah but his hormones are fucked due to decades of Propecia.

Nah not one mate. They're all strangers to me and just entertainers. I don't see them as people I get an attachment to or bond with - they're just people in the stadium or TV. Same with actors and stuff - usually when you meet these people it's a big let down - It's like that saying: 'never...

Fair enough mate. Don't see anything wrong with it really. If someone loves Lewy, or Ronaldo, or Puig, more power to them. Just for me I don't get attached to individual players like that. I have defended Messi a lot as a player but don't care about him as a person. Same with other players - I...

Dortmund away tonight, then Benfica away, then finish with Atalanta at home. That's a tough schedule to finish. I am confident that Barca can win at least two though. With this new predetermined draw and 'four sections' thing though - the theory is the higher you finish, the better. So 8th is...

Thanks for the clarification. I have now escaped the dark side.

2-2 Malen, Sabitzer Lewy (I have always called him Lewa which is apparently the feminine version of his name), Raphinha

Left wing with the rest of their attackers :lol:

Surprised the Olympics is so low. Thought it would be top three with the two football events. Could be because it is on for half the time those are. I expect the Copa is so popular because of Messi - can't imagine it beating Olympics and Euros any year he isn't playing in it and winning it. I...

I did mate, altered to 2-1, got an exact, thanks son. Kept Atalanta one tho

I think that is true of a lot of football fans though - we have natural biases in how we like to see the game played and gravitate to those who fulfil those wishes, and rail against those who don't. I have my biases too in terms of players I like. But I acknowledge (mostly) that the players who...

Every player has those clown moments though. Lewa has had them too. I have saw plenty of disasterclass Ronaldo compliations. I think those clown moments were overblown too - missing chances doesn't make someone a clown. I like Benzema more than Lewa because I think his all-round game is...

I agree, but like I said, Neymar and other great talents did do the business to a high degree. So they have both. It isn't a Ben Arfa situation where there's loads of talent but nothing was accomplished. Thiago did well at Bayern too, so again, he didn't fulfil potential but still showed a good...

Also, it works both ways - people slag off Benzema in the past to elevate what Ronaldo was doing and excuse any poor Ronaldo performances. It's called people having a thing for one player over another. Maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle. I feel though that Benzema has been a world-class...

Tbh I don't care what Madrid fans think, don't usually rate their opinions on football, either the online fans or the real life fans. I watched Madrid loads back then and I don't agree, he missed chances yes but he did a lot of great work for years for Real Madrid. Otherwise they'd have got rid...

To be fair to Tempt, there's nothing wrong with being a big fan of a player. I don't wanna gang up on tempt here. It's more a curiosity thing why he is drawn more to Lewa than the rest. I suppose Lewa just plays a way he really loves. Plus he seems a cool and fashionable guy off the park. He...
