    Club World Cup

    Indeed. Having seen that team I was gonna go 3-1. But I already locked my pick as 2-1 PSG on Superbru before seeing the teams. I normally play conservatively when heavyweight sides meet. But yeah, wouldn't be surprised if Real Madrid get what is coming to them, the scabby cunts. What I like...

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    Another thing is that he's far better on the counter, in transition. I know Barca are brilliant and devastating when they get to counter under Flick, but they play against a lot of low blocks too. Rashford never does well in those games. That's why he has a great goalscoring record against big...

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    How many times have I said it, though? To let him have his moments you need to sacrifice a player as his all-round game is absolutely horrendous. United fans say this too. He's exactly the type of guy whose (decent, not even amazing) stats make him appear better than he is. When did he play...

    Club World Cup

    That Madrid midfield should get absolutely dominated. It's not often I rate every single player fairly highly in a team but I think I do with that PSG lineup. No weaknesses on paper at least.

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    Let's say for the sake of argument I am being harsh, and he did 'kill it' that season. Surely you can see it is an outlier? He never got near those stats before or after in his career. Michu once had an amazing goalscoring season too. You don't judge a player by their anomalous highs. You...

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    I covered this before many times. He scored 17 goals in the league, the rest of his goals came in cups (they were in EL, not CL) and was outscored by Callum Wilson in league (who played fewer minutes and got nowhere near the hype). 10 of his goals came in a 10 game spell and he scored 7 in the...

    They might have tried it the odd game, but no. He's wholly inadequate at that. He's a LW or nothing I think.

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    The point is for him to get those stats you have to play with a man down in general play. He gives the ball away for fun and blasts shots into the stands constantly, his decision making and maturity is horrendous for an almost 28 year old (on the park), never helps out the LB. You're falling...

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    He cannot do that at all. He has never played as a target man, or even been able to hold the ball up with his back to goal in central areas. Man United fans lament his inability to do this too. He's tall but his main trick is cutting in from the left and shooting. He is a very one-dimensional...

    Who you fancying to win this tournament @Messi983 @FCBarca? I will try and watch the 7 knockout games. Are Norway in with a shout? They seem a good team. But obviously Spain are the big favourites, and after those I would expect Germany, England and France (or Netherlands if they can get...

    Need a striker. Does Rasmus Hojlund count for impersonating a footballer?

    What a statement to make about murdering someone 'mistakes happen in life, dude' and appealing to religion 'What happened, happened. I made a mistake, a serious one, but mistakes happen in life -- I'm not a bad guy. People tried to bury my dreams because of one mistake, but I asked God for...

    This guy could start in goal for Brazil Prison Team https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruno_(footballer,_born_1984)

    Forgot that cunt - him too. United could have a prison squad as big as Chelsea have on the outside at this rate.

    Henry Winter (if you are referring to him) is an absolute hack. Totally clueless about football and I have no idea why anyone rates him. Some of the sycophantic pieces he has written about those INEOS clowns are laughable too. His track record is appalling.

    Man United have Ronaldo and Greenwood who have played there and should be in jail really. Van Persie was accused of rape too. And Brandon Williams was recently given a suspended sentence (not much of a player but better than your usual prison players). Antony had some accusations. He could play...

    Esteban Cambiasso

    The Germany game was absolutely disgusting. Watching Argentina totally unable to defend as Germany scored easy goal after easy goal. Germany had Argentina's number three tournaments in a row. In 2006 Argentina were the best team in the tournament shot themselves in the foot after Pekerman...

    Esteban Cambiasso

    Apologies for the long time bump Loved Maradona, but reading some old threads and this made me remember him leaving those three out back in the day. He truly cost Messi one of his World Cup shots in 2010. Zanetti, Cambiasso and Banega were at the height of their powers back then. Zanetti was...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    That was an awful lot in football money in 2005. Zidane was still the world record at about £46 million. But still a bargain for a player such as he was to become.
