    Argentina

    @soul24rage Hi mate, what is the team likely to be tonight against Paraguay? 23.30 kick off here so may try to give some of it a watch (currently 21.25).

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    Just looked - even more laughable is 'best men's club: Al Ahly' :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Cristiano Ronaldo

    Henry was absolutely brilliant himself. He knows a lethal, talented, entertaining forward when he sees one, hence R9.

    Premier League 24/25

    It's a player in his 30s, and 5 women have accused him of rape or sexual assault/misconduct. Five women is a lot. Sounds like whoever it is is a proper cunt.

    Ansu Fati (loaned to Monaco)

    Poor lad. Nothing goes right for him fitness wise. He must be gutted.

    Manchester United

    Thank you for the info. A lot of what I have said about their squad, with added details about Sporting players and personnel used there. I don't think you mentioned Diallo there. He's probably one of their best and most technical players (no world beater though), so he definitely fits in much...

    Argentina

    Thanks, really good reply as always and I will monitor him and keep an eye out for the other players you mentioned. I know most of them but not all. I noticed his lack of physicality too, not that quick and doesn't seem overly strong for his height either.

    Manchester United

    Still not a Flick fan I see, lol.

    8 - Pedri

    Fair enough. I know what you mean - Iniesta might be a lazy comparison just because of body type and nationality, and club allegiance. Like you say, Pedri doesn't have Zidane's physicality or strength. And yeah, Zidane was much more than just a final third player - he played everywhere in the...

    Cristiano Ronaldo

    Yeah I would agree. I think 06/07 was a bit of an outlier for his six seasons at United, because he did take on more playmaking duties there and was good at it to a point. Like you say, his best amalgamation between end product and entertainment/flair/tricks was likely his first year at Real...

    8 - Pedri

    Fair enough. That's mostly true on Zidane. He generally had a better shot than Pedri though, but yeah he wasn't a G/A merchant or obsessed with productivity. I just feel Pedri is better deeper as some here do. Some feel he's better in attacking areas but he just doesn't look right there to me...

    Boxing

    I am not into it either, but I get the appeal - two gladiators sparring and trying to beat each other. Violence but also sometimes respect as competitors. In saying that, it might be nostalgia but it seemed a lot better years ago. Guys like Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, Jake La Motta, Evander...

    F1

    Weird - I haven't watched F1 in many years though always liked the sport. I came in here out of interest to see what people were saying. I had no idea who Lando was so I googled him after reading about him here, and it's apparently his birthday today. What a freaky coincidence that I read about...

    Omar Marmoush

    I was gonna say that too - I am surprised he's 'officially' a CF as he looks more of a wide forward to me.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    Just been watching videos of the Real Madrid 5-0 and some other games. He's one of the only attackers who can still be the best player on the pitch without scoring or assisting. It's what you see when you watch him - regardless of goals and assists - that makes him so special. The intelligent...

    Argentina

    @soul24rage Thoughts on Buonanotte in terms of attributes? I know you have referred to him a few times recently. He looked a real talent at Brighton alongside Enciso (it's a shame this guy isn't Argentine too as he'd fit like a glove) and now he's on loan at Leicester as you will be well aware...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Think there's some fair points there for sure, about other teams being fitness or physical monsters and that overcoming the talent deficit to the likes of Barca sometimes.

    Omar Marmoush

    I need to watch him, and the Bundesliga in general. I don't wanna rely on the old misleading YouTube videos. But I did indeed watch one of those videos, and this guy looks absolutely class from that. Very fast, fantastic right foot both when dribbling and passing - can play through balls along...

    Cristiano Ronaldo

    I know - you are preaching to the choir if you have seen my posts lol. He's nowhere near those players in flair. I am simply saying that THAT version of C Ronaldo was fairly entertaining (nowhere near those players' levels) but far more entertaining than his later self.

    21 - Frenkie de Jong

    Yeah true. You'd think he'd have fit in at Barca like a glove though. Fair point that he hasn't had many great head coaches to learn from. I don't really know where he goes from here. I am expecting he will go to United when his contract runs out, as they seem to be the popular destination for...
