    Kevin De Bruyne

    Martinez is a good NT coach. People always fell in the mistake of judging international football the same way they do with club football, and then they have essentially rule everyone as mediocre. Martinez arrived after 2016 failure, made thema cohesive unit and done well tbh, before the usual...

    Kevin De Bruyne

    2016 was the golden generation only real failure, 2014 they were too young and in 2022 it wasn't their generation anymore, they should have been just the old survival of old guard who support new guns. Sort like Argentina, it wasn't the Aguero, Higuin, Mascherano gen anymore but the De Paul and...

    Kevin De Bruyne

    Belgium had awful managers before Martinez, in that they have failed. But in 2018 when they were still at their prime, and 2021 when some of them were still there at good level, they were narrowly defeated by the eventual champions. In both times they gave it their all and wasn't some...

    Kevin De Bruyne

    Palmeiri is a terrible journalist, a wanna be Romano but 100 times worse, and no one still understands why he is hired. Look at the comments, the fans are all hating on the guy, even other journalists.

    My respect to KDB has just doubled

    Nico Williams

    To add to this: -Nico was under no obligation to make his release clause a standard Spanisg one, he could have made same amount but with clause that it is for any club to pay, and may even agree on it being in installments. Release clause is to protect players, so you can always soften it...

    You realise that this will be due to financial issues, rather than by choice

    Euro 2024

    Last two editions of the WC were some of the best tbh. Way better than ones prior. International football is very defensive, and that is probably why FIFA is generous with penalties in the WC, they don't need a goal per 90 minutes in 3 consecutive WC finals. This has improved the product a lot...

    Euro 2024

    True, barely had any influence and his hand was on a natural position. It isn't normal for players to be defending while having their hands behind their back to avoid such a call.

    Basketball/NBA

    He was selected as 2nd round pick for the Lakers. He is Lebron James oldest son, went to a bad college team, had cardiac arrest, became back up point guard and averaged 4 points per game, shooting a terrible 36% from the field. He had no business entering the draft, but it fit his Dad timeline...

    FC Barcelona: Win of the youth system

    There is no equation for buyout, at least to my knowledge. This leaves a lot for interpretation. We can increase buyout clauses and force anyone who wants to leave to go to court, which few will dare to do. It's Real Madrid strategy that actually works despite not being entirely legal or ethical.

    Marc Guiu

    At his age? Absolutely Maybe if he is 21 years old who proved to belong to top level. But 18 years old reserve players fails more often than not, one injury and they are screwed. Get a life changing money abd then be picky.

    So, if we sell Eric it is all good then? :rolleyes: How is that a bad deal? In January offers were 9M, now it is 15M + buyback that we wouldn't have if he went to France. Even outright sale it would have been good. If it was RM most of the forum will be singing praise for Perez shrewd business...

    Mikayil Faye

    He is signing for their U-21 team, and he is a carbon copy of their current biggest prospect (Hato) as they are both 1.82M tall left footed, ball playing & athletic CB. Unless Hato is sold no way Mokio is counted as full time first team player. With that said, Ajax always have a better path to...

    Ok mate, keep the forum safe. Next time remember that I was also correct for both Araujo and Todibo, so track record is actually positive

    So, why are you even quoting me if this is the case :ROFLMAO: You could have just ignored it if this is all what you are going to say

    Mikayil Faye

    Positioning can be improved, but it is pretty rare tbh, at least in short term. Short term is key because I can't see Barca keeping Faye until he is 24 or 25 if this is what it takes for him to reach a top level. If you read from the start, I've been one of the few critics of Cubarsi here, it...

    Mikayil Faye

    This is the only argument of substance you are making, other than "I don't trust your opinion" but are those enough for someone to succeed? His ball playing isn't elite by any mean, he is weak in the air, his positioning and reading of the game is below average, so again do you think that...

    I am not the only one pointing to those things though, you will see many of those who watches Barca B consistently talking about Fall being the better player, both on reddit or twitter, so no I am not alone. You are mixing opinions of those who watches with hype, Fall has no hype because he is...
