    Darmian was considered a joke at United basically and they discarded him, but he reinvented himself when Inzaghi picked him up from Parma, playing at a better level than United now.

    Serie A

    If we're talking about who is working with the least resources at a top club it would be him. Basically all their business under him has been free and they're on a negative net spend. Yet they are dogwalking Serie A, made a CL final and have won 2 Coppa Italias under him already. A Scudetto...

    You guys know who is better than all the overrated coaches? Inzaghi...

    Xavi Hernández

    Winning CL by luck doesnt really exist. You have to beat at least 5-6 very good teams with good managers and big budgets and great players, in a row. That can never be just luck even if luck helps you. However CL is won it is a huge achievement.

    Xavi Hernández

    I think that most of the fans, the media and maybe the coaching staff themselves still havent really grappled just why the game is so different in Europe than in the league. We seem to approach the game the same way and when it doesn't work excuses are found and we go to the next one. A lot of...

    Xavi Hernández

    If Xavi wins CL/LL double he is easily 2nd best coach in the world and will be considered that by pretty much everyone.

    Same Raphinha that Xavi deemed not good enough to start over 'shite, big game bottler' Dembele...

    Joan Laporta

    You're forming an incomplete parallel. Yamal hasn't played enough games for you to make a 'big performances argument' yet. No an assist against Inter doesn't mean he's better.

    Joan Laporta

    They're all replaceable with better players. Lewa - Roque. Fati - wasn't playing much anyway and we have Ferran coming into his own. Nico available on a free and heavily linked. Raphinha - 16 year old is playing better.

    Joan Laporta

    A lot of the levers we pulled are still unpaid, no CL KOs, Montjuic, I can see it. But it should also suggest a radical improvement in 1-2 seasons.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    Yamal is one of the best talents that has ever emerged from this academy and that's saying something. Yamal, Gavi, Balde, all in 2 seasons or so... three 100m price talents basically. Golden generation.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    For now yes but he has a good athletic composition, he looks like he can put on a lot of size if he tries. The future offseasons will be crucial.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    Lamines physical condition is good. He's very very young and has a lot of muscular development to do on his frame, but has a decent pace baseline and great stamina and agility. He looks like he has good athletic potentials. Far more athletic than likes of Gavi who are held up as athletic beasts.

    Xavi Hernández

    He won a Champions League and you're basically discarding it as a fluke. I don't really have any opinions on him but the standard is funny. Same can really be done with any manager including Xavi by claiming Madrid weren't focused as you said so title was a mirage. Not many coaches are doing...

    Xavi Hernández

    Remember how Serghei said if Ten Hag doesn't challenge for the title in his second season he should get sacked. Apparently a manager who has a little more than a season in charge with Man United should be beating out Pep's City of 7 or 8 years that just won the treble and is on course for 4...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    This guy's record against big teams/in important games and his record against small teams is really notable. Of course any player is going to score more against worse teams naturally, but the difference here is obscene and extremely notable compared with other top strikers. He regularly scores...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Poland trailing in crucial game to qualify vs Albania... if they lose they dont qualify automatically... and of course this guy is ghosting again and has barely touched the ball. What a surprise.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    I dont know if 'scripted' is the right word. I would probably say lucky but idk about scripted, that's a strong word. The only pen I thought was pretty suspect was the one against Poland where the action had clearly ended and the contact wasn't affecting play at all. A lot of their opponents...
