So club football returns soon. Brest are front and centre on Friday night (y) What a club.

It was a joke. Boris lol.

The guy is 56 years old, to be fair.

Great video, watched it before. The first piece of football of Maradona at what looks like Boca shows the problem with rating everything by stats. He runs half the length of the pitch running past everybody, but his shot is cleared off the line. Highlights his brilliance but will never shows in...

Just watching some more videos of him, such an incredible genius.

Fair points mate, and thanks, yeah it was a nice winning goal. Hope fortunes improves for the Poles.

Fair post. I would simply suggest that Salah is the only non-European here and - reading his story - had to make a lot of personal sacrifices as a kid to get to the top of European football. I think he had to work up to the top not because of lack of talent (relatively speaking), but because of...

Respect your opinion as always mate. I must say though I am surprised to see Salah bottom on talent - I thought he'd at least be above Bale. Although obviously even the lowest is a 9 at least in talent. Also, clutch, x factor and on their day all seem similar to me. Talk soon mate.

What a wonderful player he was, and that second goal is the one I referenced, at OT. I find he is forgotten a bit these days when he discuss the best wingers/wing forwards of the last two decades. Everyone talks about Bale, Salah, Ribery, Hazard, Neymar, Mbappe more.

Ok Well, I should acknowledge like The Stig, they're all on a similar level and amongst the best players of their generation, so being bottom is no insult. Salah - love how he's like a mini Messi, with his passing and dribbling (even though a poor man's Messi). He also shows a lot of...

Not so much bottling as very indecisive - apparently it's a big part of my personality type :lol: I will give an opinion then: Salah, Robben (I have a personal liking for Arjen as a player), Ribery, Hazard, Bale. I would expand more but I am honestly trying to post less and gonna go offline...

You are worrying over nothing mate - everyone here knows you haven't got a bad bone in your body and wouldn't harm a fly. Just some think you are trolling and get a little bored of it (not saying me, but others). But I get you love Ronaldo a lot. Anyway just relax mate - let's not take the...

Agree, this is the one for me. He's a good player to a point, but simply gets far more credit than he deserves from plenty.

Lol much too hard, all brilliant players. My list today would be different from tomorrow. Good idea for a thread, though.

He won't permaban you - he knows you are a good lad who is fun to have around the forum because of your happiness and bubbliness. You make the forum a better place (in all threads but this one when you troll, lol).

Don't be upset mate. It's just banter and none of those guys who mock you mean any real ill-will against you - it's just a forum. Now and then you do make a trolling post. It doesn't bother me much but there are other people who it does, so I would say maybe just don't provoke at those moments.

To be fair, I think he did genuinely believe Ronaldo was a midfielder then. Other times he has been trolling but this time I think he was being serious. I know it seems like a very simple thing to get wrong (a classic winger being a midfielder) but some people don't know as much about tactics...

Fati is a nice guy to be fair - he never insults or attacks anyone. I know he can post some stuff that seems just for trolling (like this here) but he doesn't mean anything nasty by it. He's a good kid.

Yeah he switched from being a right winger to an inverted cutting inside winger on his left foot. He did both jobs at Man United but he became a permantent 'left wing forward' at Real. At Man United he was a classic winger from 2003 to 2006 but had already become a 'false winger' by 2007.

I have said before that being short is an advantage for a footballer, in all areas other than GK and CB (and striker if playing as a target man). I am short and I don't think I would be as good a dribbler as I have been, and have the ability to twist and turn on a dime, if I was taller and less...
