    Premier League 24/25

    I know those are all-time results, but plenty came recently as well. They tend to do not bad sometimes in big games (sometimes they get hammered) because of a tactical quirk - they're a counter-attacking and pace club that thrive on space. That's them through and through. Better teams play more...

    Alisson

    Is he injured that much? He seems to play a lot for them dating back to 2018. He's been out at times but I don't remember him being out often. Either way, great goalkeeper. Prefer him to Ederson.

    Erling Haaland

    Good post, especially bolded. They play so many games that even guys like Lukaku and others have scored more goals at international level (or will) than lads like Pele or G Muller. The separation of Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union into much smaller states (many of which are poor quality teams...

    FC Barcelona B (Barça Atlètic)

    Some of those twists and turns are brilliant for his age. Good lad.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    Amongst other things, he's the dribble master. I love dribbling, it's the most exciting thing in football, Maybe I am biased towards it too because I am diminutive and a very good dribbler myself (at my infinitely lower level). I just love watching dribblers - whether it's economical dribblers...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    I honestly cannot understand it. I know some smart guys do it and they do it with the caveat that Maradona had far less longevity and fucked his career a lot. However, surely anyone can see he was in a completely different stratosphere of talent? Maradona was an alien, as talented as Messi...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    Agree with plenty of that other than me not thinking that 'longevity and career' is enough to leapfrog so many players that he ends up in the big four. Other players (than the big three) have too much of a talent advantage for him to override. I'd say 7th or 8th is fair based on his level of...

    Cristiano Ronaldo

    6 then. To be honest i was just saying 7 to appease Rassvet and not go too far the other way. Tbh I think he's just a slightly above average playmaker in prime, and that he made a lot of technical mistakes. But his fans get angry if you say anything negative about him.

    Cristiano Ronaldo

    Says a lot about how dumb Ronaldo is and his mindset that he equates quality of player with 'goals and trophies'. What a dumb Portuguese guido.

    Cristiano Ronaldo

    He is underrated as a playmaker (in his prime) in that he was good at it, say a 7/10. The issue is he's being compared to all-time great 9.5/10 level playmakers. Other than that though, just wanted to say that assists have little correlation with playmaking ability - most forwards have more...

    Futsal World Cup

    Brasil beat Argentina 2-1 in the final. I had something to do though so could only watch the celebrations.

    Matthijs de Ligt

    He's poor, isn't he? Their fans were calling him better than van Dijk and Dias before he'd kicked a ball for them...

    Samu Aghehowa

    Like I said before - his surname sounds like the name of an antagonist from Lord of the Rings. No surprise people call him Samu.

    Europa League

    Also the commentator said that since ETH took over, United have conceded three goals or more 24 times. That is frankly an unreal stat.

    Samu Aghehowa

    The guy looks really good, haven't really seen him before. It wasn't just the goals (both fired into the roof of the net...impressive), his hold up play and strength with his back to goal was generally good too. Very quick too. He had to go off as he was fucked with injury or tiredness but...

    Europa League

    Nice call @Iniesta Ultra Disappointing end but they should have finished it by squaring that ball at 3-2.

    Europa League

    Ah right fair enough lol. As for this game - United struggling massively with crosses. Diogo Costa though - complete idiot. 0/10 performance.

    Manchester United

    Not covering my bases or anything but we all expect them to get hammered (well most of us) - they'll likely win lol. They always maggot a result when not expected.
