    Always believed women could give blowjobs standing up.

    Yeah that is so beautiful to see. You can tell they really respect each other. They both will really have wanted to win but are equally happy for their rival/friend.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Yeah maybe. Messi983 has clarified it for me anyway. I think I heard China talking their own language. I know I sound a total dick saying this as a native English speaker, but English is the universal language really so guess it makes sense that that is the most common language different...

    Ah right, fair enough - didn't know. Makes more sense then.

    Fair enough. True, the vast majority of them don't even run their own social media accounts. In a general sense though, there does seem to be more of a focus in general on athleticism than football technique and ability in football these days though. It does feel like the game is breeding...

    The Polish volleyball coach is talking to his players in English during the time-out. Bit weird.

    I didn't mean anything bad by saying that mate. I meant it more of a compliment - that you speak it well even though it isn't your first language. The odd misunderstanding happens even in first language speaking. Don't worry, your English is good.

    You can't know that mate. Villa was a better team player than Ronaldo or Ibra, for instance. Now obviously they were more dangerous attackers in general. But the point is sometimes you use a lesser player if he fits into the team well, and Villa and Pedro were perfect in the Barca system (Villa...

    Yeah true. That's a really good post by you. I am a bit of a contrarian myself at times (like with Bellingham for example). However, as you say, we have to be wary of being contrary for contrary's sake, and just so we can beat our chests about being 'free thinkers'. I know for me I don't like...

    True. That's a fair point. It could mean that is all we are seeing from him. But they're likely doing lots of work with the ball. I am referring more to their own attitude - more interested in showing off abs than showing their ball work. But you replied to me last night about it being for...

    Going off topic a bit as this isn't about the player, but... While that is true and I totally agree with you on the appeal to authority fallacy (in terms of better authorities and an abundance of them descreasing the likelihoold of it being a genuine fallacy), there is also the issue of group...

    Good post mate, agree with the majority. I will select two things you said about football: First, the control freak thing. I kinda feel similarly. Guardiola did start it in a way, but I have conflicted feelings. I love how tactical the game can be now, but as you say it leads to decreased...

    Don't worry mate, I expect English isn't your first language (y)

    It was already otherworldly without a number 9 and with Messi as a false 9. It was close to the perfect team, why would Guardiola have tried to alter it?

    I agree, Messi made the system work, just stating what I think he meant. Like I say though, I might have misinterpreted what he meant. It's hard to make out with how it is written.

    16 - Fermín López

    Maybe I am not reading that right, but I am interpreting it as even a lesser player than Messi could have made false 9 work to a point back then, because of the players and system around him. It's worded ambiguously and hard to make out but I think that's what draconifire meant. Not that it...

    You both make fair points to be honest. It's so difficult to foresee what will and won't work with players at a coach's disposal. That's why the best coaches are so good. Making tactical decisions like this is what Flick is being paid for and not us.

    He obviously believes he's some sort of football savant.

    Good points but it's still a good option to mix things up for your team. In most games Lewandowski will play because of his (albeit declined) physical presence and being a focal point, and ability to attack Yamal crosses. This would be even more true if Williams joined. A similar profile of...
