    Jude Bellingham

    Yeah never denied he is good at popping up with them moments. That's not the issue. The issue is if those moments would be needed if they had fewer players who were moments players in the first place. If you get me. It's a hypothetical thing. I agree with your second para - I have never said he...

    Jude Bellingham

    Also, your wording is an insight into our difference in what we consider important - you think he's a great player because he is 'successful' , whereas I rate him on his football attributes, not what he wins or how many goals he scores. You are talking about trophies and stats, I am talking...

    Jude Bellingham

    I am not a 'scouser' - I am Scottish and hate Gerrard for a start. I prefer Liverpool to plenty of the big English clubs but I don't exactly like them - I would and have supprted Barca against them, and would much rather someone like Brighton beat the cunts to the league. I just like Salah and...

    Jude Bellingham

    Anyway (sorry for multiple posts) - maybe I am being way too harsh on him. He just does not seem like my type of footballer, that is all.

    Jude Bellingham

    What I am really trying to say is he just doesn't seem like the type of guy who is brilliant at link-up, one and two touch passing in tight areas, wriggling away from people in tight areas, he doesn't have great speed on the half-turn or dexterity and seems quite cumbersome (he could never in a...

    Jamal Musiala

    Lamine is more talented than Musiala for me (by a good amount) but Musiala is more talented than Bellingham I would say. Palmer vs Musiala is a good showdown talent-wise. I'd give it to Palmer though. More importantly Palmer has better decision making despite only being about 9 months older...

    Jude Bellingham

    That's only part of it. But you cannot deny that it plays a part. For the record I don't think he's 'handsome' at all, but a lot of people do, and pretty privilege is very real even within football. It's more to do with the fact that he's more of a stats guy. He doesn't have the dribbling...

    Jude Bellingham

    I do believe there's a concerted effort to build this guy up into something he isn't (new Zidane, best in the world bollocks) because of making money through clicks and manufacturing a new 'superstar'. The same way the media profited from the Messi v Ronaldo debate, which is a farce really, but...

    Jamal Musiala

    That's a fair point too actually. You'd hope it will come with age, he's still only 21 I think.

    Cole Palmer

    Great video, some brilliant skills and goals. The goal at 3.46 is ridiculous. He's out wide at the edge of the box, gets fronted up by the defender, turns him so well and comes inside and finishes from a tight angle. The video is full of quality like that. He's one of my favourite players right...

    Jesús Navas

    Yeah have liked him as a player ever since the late 00s. He's been solid and reliable for years, mostly for Sevilla, but he did an ok job at times for Man City too. Won three medals for Spain. He was involved in the move that led to Iniesta's winning goal in South Africa, too. He showed his...

    Emiliano Martínez 'Dibu'

    Agree, goalkeeper and defensive midfielder are probably the most important positions on the pitch. Not in terms of glory, but in terms of the heartbeat of the team. Anyway, Martinez can be brilliant when he is up for it. Like you say he makes big saves when it matters, and is actually quite...

    Jamal Musiala

    Yeah he's a brilliant young player. Have always liked him. His close control, dribbling are very good. He's excellent in tight spaces too, something that always is highlighted about him. Plus he just seems to glide across the pitch, very beautiful and aesthetic style of play. He will be a...

    Enzo Fernández

    He's been excellent in recent weeks.

    Ademola Lookman

    He's a quality player but not good enough for CL winning teams in my opinion. Maybe Atalanta will surprise us. Still, he's very good, but already 27 and would cost a fortune. There are younger, cheaper, better options (I don't know who, but scouts will).

    7 - Ferran Torres

    To be fair other guys mentioned Grealish in here, then someone brought up his looks - I was just compelled to say I thought his looks were overrated. There's been loads of football discussion too.

    20 - Dani Olmo

    Thanks mate, will soon look into it. I have some of his stuff downloaded.

    Premier League 24/25

    Ahhh yeah, I haven't actually watched it but have seen screenshots. It's been on my list for a long time. I will hopefully get to it soon - hear it's one of the GOAT anime. Ty.
