    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    "Corner taken quickly.......Origi!" Barca had no answers for the clutch God Divock Origi. :boss:

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    One of the big reasons I knew we'd win against Barca was I never rated that team very highly to begin with. The 3 nil scoreline was pure luck and hugely flattering Barca. We were good even in Barcelona. The scoreline didn't represent shit. We missed Salah and Bobby in the second leg...

    Kevin De Bruyne

    Not in the final they lost in 2006. Spain had all these players at their absolute peak playing the perfect style of Football that suited them. Spain 2010>>>France 2006. That Spain team in the WC was one of the most boring teams I have seen though. They just passed the opponents to death. I...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    That day there was something special in the air at Anfield. I knew we'd win the moment we stepped onto the pitch. We were playing without 2 of our best players Salah and Bobby but we were playing like a team that was possessed. Nothing could stop us that night. I'm confident we'd have...

    Zidane vs Ronaldinho

    All different positions but I rate ZZ above R9 and R10 as a Football Legend. Maybe R9 had the better peak but overall it's Zidane for me. Still remember when everyone was talking about the great star studded, stacked Brazil team in the 2006 WC. Retirement Zidane just came in, smiled and...

    Kevin De Bruyne

    While Xavi and Iniesta were great players and one of the best in their teams they were also lucky that their peak coincided with some of the greatest club and national sides in history. That Spanish National Team had so many great players that even people like David Silva, Fabregas, Cazorla...

    Bayern München

    I ask the Football Gods for forgiveness in advance coz I'm allowing a Franz Beckenbauer topic to segue into an Eric Dierbolical discussion but here it goes: Dier to Bayern: Sometimes these big clubs have these strange signings for squad depth, cheap deals or whatever reason. Remember when Real...

    Kevin De Bruyne

    Xavi was absolutely amazing but ZZ is still at the top for me. Pretty easily. ZZ just had more magic, a larger skill set, more leadership, main man energy, aggression, way better in the air, clutch gene, entertainment value, better dead ball specialist, etc.... It's baffling that a player...

    Kevin De Bruyne

    Pirlo is interesting. He started his career as an attacking midfielder but shifted back as he matured and ended up playing as a Deep Lying Playmaker. I put Pirlo in this list because old Pirlo would still play alongside a proper DM. He never really played as the sole DM/number 6/destroyer...

    Kevin De Bruyne

    Current players aren't generally rated very highly in these conversations. Nostalgia bias. We'll have to wait till KDB retires or declines to determine his legacy properly. Anyways ranking the CMs(broadly classified, all types of CMs, players who'd fit in as an 8 in a 433).....not including...

    Kevin De Bruyne

    Let's decide his default position first. KDB's offense is his biggest strength but no number 10 defends as much as he has done in his peak under Pep. He mostly played as an 8 in City's attacking 433 drifting towards the right flank and crossing or freely roaming all around. I think he...

    Frenkie de Jong

    Amazing player. So talented and makes the toughest bits look so simple and effortless. Much much better than PedRi. FDJ is a proper world class mid.

    Kevin De Bruyne

    KDB is a better Footballer than Kroos. Very different roles though. Long passing is the only attribute Kroos has over KDB. Surprisingly, even in defensive duties and physicality, KDB is well above....despite his more advanced position. Truly a beast.

    Zidane vs Ronaldinho

    2 magicians. 2 icons. Both amazing to watch and won pretty much everything. Who was better, more influential and the bigger icon? Why?

    FDJ's hairstyle is really cool but he definitely doesn't have the best hair in the game lol. Not even the best hair in Barca.....

    Premier League 23/24

    Those are team trophies. Rating individuals solely based on team trophies is dumb lol. Not like KDB doesn't have trophies....... Pique will never be greater than Nesta/Stam. Giroud will never be greater than Totti/Kane.
