    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Missed a bit of it as I was putting the shopping away :(

    Julián Álvarez

    I am fed up criticising Joao Felix on here. He's very talented but not built for modern football in terms of how to play the game.

    Why was Tata so bad?

    Good discussion going on. My point of view is sympathetic to both Birdy's view and soul24rage/Rory's view. I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Soul24rage is right that winning 11 or whatever leagues in a row would be an unrealistic standard in La Liga, even when you are the best...

    Looks like something from World War One. Or a historical dictator.

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    I haven't posted in his thread for ages :lol: I also didn't post on the forum at all for 9 days. Find me any other regular who goes that long without making a post (including you). Either way, your post is irrelevant. I certainly wouldn't chase down people to prove them wrong on Bellingham...

    Yeah I get you mate.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Yeah the set went back and forth but Japan had chances to win it. Hitting the net serving at match point must be devastating.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    There's loads of potentially interesting stuff on today, all clashing with each other. It's the same most days. As Loki says, we need three weeks to showcase more sports. How many handball/hockey/volleyball etc players aren't getting enough exposure because their sports are clashing too much...

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Volleyball is class to be fair, especially the indoor. It's very entertaining.

    Why was Tata so bad?

    That's the point I made. Real have quantity and Barca have quality - Barca's wins seem more special and deserved in the main, at least since 2006, but RM win a lot more even if it does seem more fluky and like they weren't always the best team. For most fans quantity will matter more than...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    Also, this doesn't matter and is called an appeal to authority. Hansi Flick is not infallible - he isn't right about everything, and has - in fact - been wrong about plenty in the past. You might as well shut down the forum or any forum if only people in positions of power opinions should be...

    9 - Robert Lewandowski

    You seem to care far too much about a footballer. If Lewandowski is indeed finished (as I have suspected he is for a while) then life will go on. It won't make your life any worse that a random footballer - who is a stranger to you - was finished at the grand old age of 35/36. You will still go...

    Why was Tata so bad?

    Yes, Real Madrid are (in my view) the only club who can compete with Barca for size of club. Barca indeed play the best football, have had the best club team ever, and have had so many of the world's best players ever. Clubs like Man United, who talk themselves up, are utter frauds in a debate...

    Why was Tata so bad?

    I will quote my post in the Real thread, adding context. Does this sound like a 'RM dickrider'? You really are a child "Madrid have won much more, but as someone who supports neither club, they have never had a team like Pep's 2009 or 2011 teams (not even the teams in the 50s). Furthermore, I...

    Why was Tata so bad?

    Not a dickrider. You're talking bollocks. I am not a Barca fan but always liked the club and VASTLY supported them over Real Madrid and still do. I always wanted them to beat Real. But Real are a bigger club to many. It's like how I'd call Man United a bigger club than Man City or Liverpool but...

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Yeah true, I shouldn't have referred to the status of the athlete. They should all be treated equally and have access to the same facilities, from the most famous to the most obscure.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    He is one of the more well-known swimmers too. Seen him in a few events and he won gold in something. It seems badly organised this event. From this to the food, to the facilities to the state of the river water for the distance swimmers.

    Pep Guardiola

    I didn't watch the friendly between you guys and Man City, so I don't know how you are looking in pre-season, but Guardiola talks some amount of bollocks at times. He loves to troll. He talks up players from opponents you know he doesn't genuinely rate. I am sure he's praised guys like Fred and...

    6 - Gavi

    Happy birthday, seems to be working hard and hope he can have an impressive season.

    Why was Tata so bad?

    It was a poor season for Barca indeed. Not sure why really. He just seemed totally out of his depth but then he did an ok job with Mexico and seemed a fairly competent manager before Barca. I think the job of (in my opinion) the second-biggest club in the world was just too big for him...
