    4 - Ronald Araújo

    I don't think he is going to have a future here for much longer, which is something I could never had even imagined saying last season. Our defensive tactic and particularly the offside trap/high line requires very precise coordination and I don't think he's capable of it over the much more...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    It had always been the other way around. Bayern stint was the truth, and his Germany stint was an anomaly. It's clear he is the guy he was at Bayern, and we got very lucky that he was available. His short managerial career so far could go on to be extremely illustrious and we are witnessing...

    Viktor Gyökeres

    I actually heard this some months before, there was a famous case of Robert Helenius (maybe @Porque will remember as he likes boxing) Helenius was a decent heavyweight boxer who said the exact same thing as you did, that doping in Nordic countries is shameful and really disgraceful to athletes...

    Viktor Gyökeres

    So I will make a deal with you, you said different era means my example is not valid. I'll give you fifty current athletes from major sports who were caught doping (they all have to be first division or world level). If I can't come up with the list I delete my account, if you are wrong you...

    Viktor Gyökeres

    The best cyclist of all time risked his career on that. Debunked in one sentence.

    Viktor Gyökeres

    I am not saying for sure that there is something suspicious about it, but the thing that makes me ponder it is the fact that his best attribute is his endless running and incredible stamina and speed.

    Viktor Gyökeres

    This is Gyokeres : From what this graph is saying, this guy literally suddenly became one of the best strikers in the world in the space of a year.

    Quite rudimentary way of analysis, but I will show their market value graphs as a rough estimate of their improvement : Sorloth : Seems quite normal, some ups and downs, peaks and troughs, and eventually gradual increase :

    Viktor Gyökeres

    I am a regular watcher of the Championship and I saw this player play many times for Swansea and Coventry. He was alright but nothing special. He also was contracted with Brighton (before they became a top half team) and never managed to make a single Premier League appearance for them. For...

    Vinícius Júnior

    Ruins the fun for fans, quite unprofessional from Madrid and Vini, at least maintain the pretense if you already know the winner so the fans can enjoy the ceremony.

    Xavi Hernández

    Tbf Xavi's signings here were much better than Ten Hag's signings at United. However, the question is, how much of United's transfer business issues are because of the wrong targets, or a lack of pull? Here, Xavi brought Raphinha, Lewa, Kounde, Gundogan etc, but at United, I really doubt they...

    Xavi Hernández

    Maybe not so weird? Even 37 year old Messi will instantly elevate their team massively. I guess the only problem is that he might unnecessarily hurt his legacy if he goes there and happens to have a bad season with United, he might not have the desire to play top level football anymore. Where...

    Xavi Hernández

    It will be interesting to see what he will do with players who really do not fit his preferred style of football, if it happens. With the type of positional play football he likes, he will be trying to teach that to a squad full of players who spent the last 4 years playing counter hoof ball...

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    He was key when he came on against Madrid and I think he will play a very important part in Flick's team. I doubt either him or the club will want an exit by the end of this season. In particular he is a very good athlete with great ballcarrying skills, and the vertical scheme will suit him...

    6 - Gavi

    That was some real nonsense. People are applauding that he came on and started pushing Vini for no reason, but what will that do? He is picking up a yellow card that will mean he gets suspended quicker now for literally nothing. That is the type of unprofessional that we really don't need, and...

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    I agree, I think Gavi is going to struggle for starts this season, I see De Jong, Casado, Pedri and Olmo ahead of him, he can compete with Fermin but they have different styles. As you very correctly pointed out Casado is a very similar type to Gavi in his tenacity and defensive work rate but...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    We need to arrange a long term replacement this season before this becomes a scramble, this same thing happened with Busquets where we did not plan who will replace him and we ended with Romeu. Hopefully, by the time he is done, our finances will be stable and we can go for Haaland after he is...

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    We will almost certainly renew him, we don't have the funds to let go of great players as long as they want to stay because replacing him will be far more expensive than keeping him is.

    La Liga Round 11: Real - Barca 0-4

    I think nobody expected Mbappe to be this disappointing frankly. That is one reason the title looks far more achievable. On paper, their squad is better, but I agree we also have fighting chances to win and I always said that over the last 2 years that we have the talent to compete for the...
