    Nations League 24/25

    Actually it's 7 years I think haha. Isn't he born in 1992? CR in 1985. Unless he's older and they exaggerated his youth as Yamal's dad.

    Nations League 24/25

    Boy is only three years older than CR's son, lol. It's well past time to retire old man.

    8 - Pedri

    He never changes his mind about a player. He gets something in his head about a player - good or bad, fanboy or disliker - and then looks for all sorts of mental gymnastics to justify it. Much of the time it has very little to do with how good they are at football (even if they are good) and is...

    8 - Pedri

    Was browsing around on Redcafe and seen these pearls of wisdom from early 2024 from Tempt. Pedri has sure proven him wrong since then (though it was stupid at the time too). What a clown. And of course crushing on his Polish boyfriend too. This is what happens when you know absolutely nothing...

    Ballon d'Or 2025

    Ball recoveries and tackles and interceptions is quite surprising given people seem to think Lamine isn't as defensively good as Dembele and that Dembele presses better and works harder.

    India supports Portugal at the World Cup anyway so most of their population will watch @KingLeo10

    The buzz will get bigger in 6 months when the draw is done. We will know the placings of 42 of the 48 teams in their groups (won't know the four UEFA play-off qualifiers and two interconfederation qualifiers yet). I am not a big fan of this new thing in recent years of some teams' identities...

    Franck Ribéry

    True. He's a scumbag and a rapist, but then so is Ronaldo so let them fight it out lol.

    'Fewer than half of all World Cup tournaments have been won by the highest-scoring team.' Interesting. Also, there have been 2,720 goals scored in total in the World Cup, 280 away from 3,000. We might see that milestone goal in the upcoming tournament, as we could definitely see 280 goals in...

    @soul24rage Assuming no injuries or either being dropped, if Argentina are eliminated in the group phase and Portugal reach the final, Ronaldo will overtake Messi in the all-time appearance list. Would be 30 to 29. Ronaldo would also become the oldest player ever to play in a World Cup Final...

    Been reading the World Cup records and statistics page on wikipedia, some interesting stuff - some I knew, some I didn't. This lot should just give up though Most consecutive failed qualification attempts [edit] Luxembourg – 21 (all 1934–2022)

    Meant to say, with the tournament being co-hosted by three nations, and the logistics etc, Argentina if they finish first could very well be playing a third place team (8 of the twelve group winners will be), and that could be from about five groups. So it's not that simple that you will have a...

    Good point - if not first or second you will almost surely be in the play-offs, as most teams above you will qualify automatically. Only need to be in top four of it.

    Austria beat Romania. Only 3 points from 9 for Romania, after doing well to qualify for the Euros Thoughts @serghei @CatalinR10 ?

    You heard this one? This really happened. In a more light-hearted incident, Antti Niemi was also famously during his time at Hearts the subject of a call during a phone-in on radio channel talkSPORT, in which a Scottish fan queried why Niemi had not been called up to the Scotland national team...

    Just saw Malta got a 0-0 draw with Lithuania. That's a really good result for a minnow like the Maltese. Someof these minnows have been improving a bit in recent years.

    @Messigician You should be able to finish above us in the qualifying group bud, we are terrible. Just if you can finish above Denmark. Games start in September.
