Add Marcus Thuram, cross out Sesko. He just signed long-term contract

Simeone has been great, even though unlikeable, until circa 2016. Since then, he has turned into a big fraud. Highest paid coach in the world that constantly underachieves in both league and Europe Fraudcelotti once was a great coach (when he was at Milan) with ideas about football. After that...

Almost all serious analysts before the final said it's 50%-50%, one of the most hard to predict finals ever, etc. Same with betting companies and the odds they gave But you knew better than them :lol:

It's funny you are so ignorant of football that you think Xavi is better manager than Ange. Imagine Xavi at Celtic and Spurs. That would have been hilarious :lol:

That's you actually with 'IS' instead of 'ISN't'

Isak is, no matter what you say. Raphina isn't (yet), nor he was when he was at Leeds :lol:

That's actually you, who don't know how to read Xstats and fabricate narratives that we dominated all metrics :lol: We won that league because of the (around 15 or so) 1-0s against fodder LL teams that season. Eye-test is enough to tell you that Stegen and defense bailed Xavi But if you don't...

Frankfurt was actually the only period (Feb-Apr '22) in Xavi's stint that the team played decent football. Which makes the elimination even worse Yes, he was absolutely carried, because we did not deserve around 70% of those 1-0s that season, based on chances. Opponents created more big chances...

You are two guys that refuse to take a simple L of your shitty takes, and drag and tire the whole thread with strawmans and false narratives - 'Took us in the 9th' another common propagandist lie. Positions are not determined in October, and Koeman left us 3rd in the league (20/21) and Copa del...

You have the audacity to talk about selective understanding, when you purposefully omit to mention: - Xavi being humiliated in Europe by the likes of Eintracht Frankfurt, kicked out twice in the group stage of CL, kicked out by UTD in the R32 of Europa League, and receiving 10-0 in total by...

Yes, that's a fair point Micro-management has to get introduced at the right age, and not very early...

Can't believe the fuck I am reading here. Revisionism at its best! 'Xavi or Flick does not make any difference' :lol: You can't be so stupid really Xavi was a tactically inept dude who never understood the transition from tactical ideas to actual tactics. He created rigid systems of play that...

Are you sure we could not afford him? How much does he cost yearly in his total package (wages plus amortized fee)?

No team can succeed at the top top level nowadays without all 10 outfield players pressing with intensity. That is a fact by now, and should be understood by everyone watching this sport That prohibits a Kane transfer

So, after what we see at Bayern, was it a mistake or not to not get him last summer?

We should have gotten him instead of the Polish tractor back in 2022, but we had the dump-o who thought he is an SD to take transfer decisions Having said that, we should not be anywhere near him next summer. Not repeat the same mistake as with the tractor and pay him for his old days. We...

He should be no1 in our list for the LCB sport next summer. Good passer, super quick, anticipates and reads the game. He would fix hell lot of problems

Dude just trademarked 'Cold Palmer' and is about to also trademark his shivering celebration... https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6696334/2025/10/07/cole-palmer-cold-palmer-trademark-chelsea/

Another huge L for FAtporta The only real professional to be part of the structure of the club in his 2nd stint, helped us massively with all FFP restrictions in 21-23, only to be ditched for a NO ONE in the football industry, that happened to be Fatporta's buddy

When you stop reading G+A numbers, and start watching actual games and how players play, then maybe you will start understanding football
