    8 - Pedri

    Yeah, I made that mistake recently too, even though I already knew he was a signing. It's just that Barca produce so much talent and he seems exactly the type who would have come through La Masia. It's easy to forget.

    Champions League 2024-25

    Gave you a like for everything except the paragraph wanking over Jose lol. But yeah, they were a great team. Got lucky with decisions against Barca though (though all anyone remembers is the one Barca got with Busquets peeking). Sylvester Stallone gave me a chuckle about Milito. I never got...

    Champions League 2024-25

    I know you're just being sarcastic. Football doesn't work like that though - every game is different. Can just as easily point to their league slip ups recently.

    6 - Gavi

    I could never buy Gavi as a hard man - he has the face and hair of a model and is fairly slim/lean and slight. But then appearances can be deceiving.

    6 - Gavi

    Think that can do more harm than good - though depends on a player's personality. Being famous and googling yourself to see what anonymous people who don't even know you think about your skill at your job? I couldn't do it regularly, sir.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    You aren't really swearing unless you say 'fuck' (or one of its derivatives), 'cock' (or cocksucker, thanks Deadwood) or 'cunt', in my opinion. Arse/ass, shit, dick, pussy, piss, wanker, bastard are all very mild words for me.

    Fc Bayern vs Inter Mailand - who will win?

    You've jinxed them now, lol. Just kidding - I agree with all you said. Gun to me head I think they'll get past Bayern but it could go either way. When it gets to the quarter-finals games are often very tight.

    Champions League 2024-25

    Very tough to call these games, but I have gone: Arsenal 1-2 Real Madrid Bayern 1-1 Inter Barca 2-1 Dortmund PSG 3-1 Aston Villa Not sure about all of them but at the end of the day you have to make a choice.

    Kylian Muppet

    Said the same a few times recently on here. He's good, but I don't think he's rated this highly if he's not associated with Real Madrid. I don't see a great player there. Still FAIRLY young though so time to develop. I just don't see him ever being close to Vini or Mbappe's level. Which is the...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    There's just a few things - on and off the pitch - about Messi that make me think the 'humble guy' thing he has going is a bit of a mask. In truth, I think he has a massive ego - which I can understand with his talent. But then again, even though he is immensely talented, he's not curing cancer...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    True mate, it is easy to ignore. But then they seem to be everywhere too. In terms of actual ex player pundits, I find many of them tedious to listen to. I do the same thing you do, I don't watch the analysis at all generally. Sometimes I will leave it on afterwards as background noise but that...

    Premier League 24/25

    Other than CL, FA Cup and Serie A, it's not going badly at all this season (Paris was during the Olympics)

    Manchester United

    1 point from 6 so far. Very minimal improvement really, despite their fans coping by claiming 'progress'. Lyon next - if they can beat the convincingly while dominating the match I might start to believe their fans more.

    Premier League 24/25

    It was so obvious he'd be absolutely useless, just like all of Ferguson's ex players when they become coaches. Ferguson was poor tactically and couldn't pass stuff like that on. Look at how Keane, Ole and Neville talk 'passion, this is Man United, where is the desire?'. Imagine being a player...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    @TemporaryFan Lol @Messi983 is only replying here because that's where my novel about the issues with the modern game and celebrity worship (in response to Grande) was posted. I am also 110 percent sure that Messi's issues with football extent way way beyond Robert Lewandowski :lol:

    Champions League 2024-25

    Pretty good squad aye. Good to see love for Bastoni, Barella and Dimarco. Dimarco is the best left-back or left-wing back (as he more often plays) in the world imo.

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    @Messi983 I thought more about your post mate, and while you make many good points, the idea that quality is being diluted by quantity (as in just about every aspect of life) is so true. We see so many more games now because young kids who live on twitter need to see 'Bellingham and Vini's...

    Lol at Solskjaer and red cards Besiktas are getting.

    Champions League 2024-25

    I wasn't talking about McManaman though. Obvious Modric is bias. I just mean Valverde and Rice (see post I just made where they complement one another well). I wasn't having a go at you mate - I respect your opinion. Just saying I think it's closer (that's just my opinion).

    Champions League 2024-25

    Rice and Valverde are different players, and as you both say, would likely complement each other well, as in the combined XI of jamrock. Funny comparing them as actually think they'd do well together in a double pivot.
