Luka Modrić
Misplaced a few passes, but still oozes class. Tried to dictate play from deep as his team failed to create anything, made a few great surging dribbles. This guy was made to play for Barca. Shame.- Ekul

Gareth Bale
He's becoming the new Cristiano. Possibly the most overrated player in World Football, perhaps even more than CR7. Maybe not. He just runs fast and shoots hard. There's no pausa, no intelligence, no craft, no guile, no elegance. Football is being hijacked by athletes. And, for a Football purist...- Ekul

10 - Lionel Messi - v4
I don't. I watch matches. That's how I know that Messi's the best. -
Cristiano Ronaldo - v1
Yeah, that's exactly what I mean. When you actually watch him play, and then take into account that he is widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time... it's simply absurd. Makes me sick. -
Cristiano Ronaldo - v1
I genuinely think this guy is the most overrated Footballer of all time. Doesn't even belong in the conversation with the true greats. Doesn't belong in the same paragraph as Messi. Honestly, he's everything that's wrong with modern Football; people don't watch matches and form their own... -
Pedro Rodriguez
Pedro is not more involved in the build-up play than Neymar! No way!- Ekul

10 - Lionel Messi - v4
He was saying that the quality of Ronaldo's goals are ordinary, not the quantity. -
10 - Lionel Messi - v4
At Napoli, Maradona would literally speak to the president and say "I want us to sign X, Y and Z players and for us to play in this system" and that's what would happen. That team was tailor made to Maradona's requirements... His achievements there were still impressive, though. -
Arda Turan
Which is what I think, too. I'm just saying that I can see how other people may think otherwise.- Ekul

Arda Turan
No doubt he does, but he doesn't have the guile and craft that I associate with typically 'technical' players. Don't get me wrong, Rakitic is excellent technically but, for me, Arda just fits MY definition of a technical player perfectly. Completely my opinion though, I can see how others would...- Ekul

Arda Turan
I guess it depends on someone's perception of a technical player. For me it is someone like Arda, Iniesta, Xavi, Isco, etc. players who have great ball mastery and are intelligent, with good vision and decision making. Someone else may define technical excellence as someone like Rakitic...- Ekul

Barça's Transfers and Rumors
For me, we shouldn't go anywhere near Pogba. Arda is a great technician, a great team player and a hard worker and will be a fantastic signing for the short term. When he declines we have Busquets, Roberto, Rafinha, Samper, Suarez all to play in midfield for the next decade, as Iniesta and... -
10 - Lionel Messi - v4
Neymar had issues with his form, not the colour of his boots. And I highly doubt his boots were tighter than normal, as they were the same boots, just a different colour. He (briefly) reverted back to his old boots because he had been wearing them for a while, they were stretched and... -
10 - Lionel Messi - v4
I can't believe people actually think that a new pair of boots are the reason for him not scoring... How much more do they weigh than his old ones, an ounce!? -
11 - Neymar Jr. - v4
It's ludicrous now! Neymar could never do a step over again, pass to Iniesta 30 times a game, play in a Pedro mask and eradicate world poverty, and you'd still find a reason to criticise him. I think if we won the treble and Neymar played a huge part you'd still undermine his contribution. Oh... -
10 - Lionel Messi - v4
You can see for Argentina that he gets annoyed with his teammates, must be so frustrating for him that they just aren't on his wavelength. -
11 - Neymar Jr. - v4
But it's largely true. As much as the rest of the team did so well, MSN were the difference. So the same can be said for Suarez, and (of course) Messi. -
11 - Neymar Jr. - v4
For me, Neymar's the better player, especially when you factor in that he is yet to reach his potential. But both of them are completely irreplacable and I wouldn't swap them for anyone in the world. Neymar is the best left sided forward in the world and Suarez is the best centre forward in the... -
10 - Lionel Messi - v4
I've tried that but it doesn't seem to be working for me. Could somebody maybe post it for me if it's working for them?
