    11 - Raphinha

    Anyway not in the mood to argue - just looking here quicky before I head out. But having Rashford instead of Raphinha is just swapping one set of problems for another and exactly the type of thing Barca's board shouldn't be doing but likely would if they had the chance.

    11 - Raphinha

    LOL is he fuck. You're getting carried away with the hype - I notice you seem to have a positive spin on anything Man United often. Even at his 'best' his all-round game, first touch is an abomination, and he's at his 'best' one season out of five. Even at his best his general play is abysmal...

    11 - Raphinha

    Rashford is pish in my very humble opinion. Has one good game in 15, even when he scores his general game is rubbish, and can't play against low blocks. One of the most overrated players I have seen in almost 40 years watching football. Total bluffer. Not that I rate Raphinha either.

    That's true. Hope all is well anyway mate.

    No problem. Just you're usually one of the go to guys for watching different leagues and knowing a variety of players and that. Plus you were in the Ligue 1 thread so figured you might have some knowledge. but it is cool. Let's see how they do this season.

    He's come a long way since leaving ER.

    Yeah, Fort is talked up a lot, apparently a good prospect. I hear he's impenetrable :) Jokes aside, I have heard good things about him.

    Let's hope the poor guy never finds Barca forum. He will be on suicide watch reading these posts. At least he has nice hair.

    Erling Haaland

    He's easier on the eye too. I'll get my coat.

    Manchester United

    No it's the other way about. They massively underperfomed ie they missed a lot of chances. They also finished lower than they should have based on 'metrics'. Same the season before. Edit: actually the season before last was way worse. Birdy doesn't like Understat but according to it Chelsea...

    They've already got Donatello and now they want Blade.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Final posts to wind down. What do you all think was the moment of the Olympics? This for me. Watched it live and the crowd went wild. Duplantis had the entire crowd to himself as everyone else had finished their session and it was late in the evening. Marchand's endeavours were excellent...

    Manchester United

    Fair enough, it was just the first one I saw. Tbh it did seem to tally up with a lot of patterns I had seen over the last two seasons, not just with United, but trends in other teams too. Chelsea missing chances, Villa overperforming, United overperforming, City and Arsenal getting more points...

    Manchester United

    @Birdy I don't know if you have had the chance to read the posts as of yet, but thoughts on the underlying metrics of United in 22/23? And observations on other teams? Do you agree?

    Manchester United

    Scholes and ferdinand with 'concerns over De Ligt' and implying he's gonna be a colossal failure. Fucking hell, for a change those two clowns aren't hyping up everything Man United and might be right about something

    2024/25 Preseason

    Stuff like 'he is a role model for the kid players' when talking about veterans, is generally utterly bollocks pseudo psychology analysis. People said that about Ronaldo while he was throwing players under the bus. Most old players are far too concerned with their own wage packets and pending...

    Thanks, meant to tag you too but too lazy to edit. It looks like they can be a surprise package. Still a dreadful result tonight though.

    @soul24rage Are Monaco any good these days? Have they been making moves in the transfer market? They finished 2nd last season, that's pretty good. They play CL football this season. But still, it's pre-season, so don't get too despondent. Though it is a bad result.
