Lille, absolute pricks.

@Gnidrologist bucking the trends again mate

He pulls the strings all the time.

Predicted 2-1 Lille so I am happy for now.

98 percent predicted them to win, including me. Bastards.

It's annoying when people you like join clubs you dislike I find. I am not even 'individual over team', but if Messi went there it would be horrible to see him running the show and scoring goals at OT.

It's amazing someone gets such amazing credit for winning a play-off game (yes I know Messi did too against Ecuador). The perverse thing is if Portugal had qualified automatically - as they should have, them not was a failure - the guy would never have won the BD. Ridiculous when you think about it.

He looks promising but we have heard it before. Best to reserve judgement and wait and see.

In fairness, I was complimenting Ronaldo.

Watching this before going to play myself - I always play better after watching this genius beforehand.

Have a good day my friend.

Yes to be honest with you Porque, I am not convinced myself. I think he can do well, but the jury is very much out. It wouldn't be a surprise if it all goes tits up again.

Exactly. In the World Cup Final, only one non-clasico player started for Spain (Joan Capdevila of Villarreal, at LB). Three were from Real Madrid. The other seven were from Barcelona - six youth products, plus David Villa who had signed the month before. Fabregas (another Barca product) also...

I never said some Messi fans aren't a bit unhinged too. I was just discussing Ronaldo. To be fair from what I have seen he does have the most extreme fans. By the way, I do NOT mean you, at all. I mean there are some who are very toxic and horrible and insulting, from my reading of other...

I think they're being more careful now - especially with their financial woes. They don't wanna be stuck with him if it turns out terrible. Starts officially on the 11th, apparently. I wonder when his first game will be. Probably Ipswich away on the 24th after the interlull.

Amorim confirmed.

Was he as good as Zidane at his peak? His standing in the game isn't as high, but he had a similar amount of technical ability, genius, magic moments etc. I loved Zidane but I loved Rivaldo too. Also (taking away bias), do you prefer Zidane's winner at Hampden or Rivaldo's overhead kick? Maybe...

He's been a fantastic player - just feel comparing him to Messi is too much, he can't compete there, and causes people to slag him off because they feel that is overrating him (as I do too). He has weaknesses in his game, but he has always been an amazing goalscorer and a passable/decent...

Thinking about things, it's rare I dislike a kit or a colour. I guess something like green and whire stripes is something I don't like, just don't think it looks good. Red and white stripes are very common for many reasons in Spain.
