    Luis Enrique

    The league is a somewhat valid point, however it does go both ways. It is a major benefit having an uncompetitive league that you don't prioritise during your season. It is certain that if we had Liga wrapped up months early like they did we would have likely won the CL. But we had to...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    I don't think this season for him is that unthinkable, when you consider that his numbers here were not bad either if you analyse on a minutes basis. He just never played a full season or even close to it and had major injuries in every season. If he had been playing full uninterrupted seasons...

    Ousmane Dembélé

    I am still bitter the club and fans tried so hard to push him out. I guess him leaving opened up a spot for Yamal, every cloud has a silver lining. It was obvious injuries are holding him back. He was never as bad for us as people claimed.

    Champions League 2024-25

    It's hugely disappointing we didn't take out Inter because I feel we would have won this final despite how good PSG is. We have the X-factor that no other team has right now. We really let ourselves down in all accounts, the team but also Flick. Nonetheless an amazing season but it could have...

    Champions League 2024-25

    PSG were clearly the best team in the world this season in all metrics, they didn't knock out Pool for no reason, who were flying super high at that time. I guess this isn't surprising in hindsight.

    Yea, we are so happy that the sportswashing moneybags Qataris are rewarded with a CL, yay!

    Champions League 2024-25

    Well, Dembele now has a very serious chance to win Ballon Dor. Probably the most disappointing transfer for us, all things considered, of modern history. We had a superstar in our hands and 6 years of injuries meant it never worked out. As soon as he leaves he is completely fit for 2 seasons.

    Champions League 2024-25

    Based on what? Inter and PSG are two of the most exciting teams this season. It seems like fans are arbitrarily deciding they won't watch any final without EPL teams or Madrid/Barca in it without any justification.

    24 - Eric García

    They both stuck it out and grinded their way through their bad starts, props to both of them, they are mentally strong players.

    6 - Gavi

    I would bet real money as long as the two are here Gavi would never take De Jong's spot. Just won't happen. The image of De Jong as some kind of placeholder is not aligned with reality. He's top percentile in long balls and final third passes. His main weakness is defense, but on the ball he is...

    6 - Gavi

    The captain needs to be a starter first, he won't be one. Reliable enough to be part of the rotation though. No major mistakes recently and recycles possession fairly well.

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    I am surprised we are receiving any kind of fee like that considering his wages. I wonder how much percentage we are paying in this case, or if Fati agreed to drop his current wage significantly (many thanks to him, in that case). But I don't believe that is true. I think we will be paying...

    Emiliano Martínez 'Dibu'

    Szceszny was Arsenal's number 1 whilst Martinez was getting loaned to random clubs several years in a row. And Szczesny won the FA Cup with Arsenal as well as Premier League golden glove. Martinez made 38 appearances in 8 years for Arsenal. He was getting loaned out forever and struggling to...

    Mason Greenwood

    She believes in his wallet, sure. That doesn't convince anyone of much. We know rich people get away with way more than regular citizens simply by way of their wealth and status. She was under pressure from her family to retract her accusation, under huge public spotlight, and decided she will...

    Emiliano Martínez 'Dibu'

    This is his whole club CV? If we did a similar list for Ter Stegen or Szczesny, it will make that look amateur. If the best thing on his CV is winning the FA Cup with Arsenal, who he wasn't any good with, at 33, that's not convincing to play for any top club. His international career is the...

    Mason Greenwood

    Everyone already knew he was an incredible player. Before his scandal he would have cost minimum 80-90m, and perhaps United's fortunes would have changed completely had that incident never happened. Greenwood would be up front instead of Hojlund (perhaps worst United starting striker in history...

    Emiliano Martínez 'Dibu'

    What makes you think he can reach that level though? His career isn't standout other than the World Cup, and there are lots of players who had good performances internationally too. Some of the goals he lets in for Villa regularly would make our fans put his head on a platter. He isn't any less...

    Emiliano Martínez 'Dibu'

    No thanks. Every other time I watch Villa I see shots going right through him. Big personality but if we're going to sign a keeper let's look for someone long-term. I don't think he is much of an improvement over Stegen or Szczesny if at al.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    He beats Madrid for the 4th time this season. Have some perspective. That goes for all of the moaners here. Goodness me.
