    Premier League 25/26

    Not athletic enough to play in a midfield two and not got good enough passing range or positioning. He'd be a disaster paired with fernandes, who's bad enough himself in a midfield two. They have four absolutely dreadful midfield options. They need to play a midfield three.

    Champions League 25/26

    Yes mate I understand your point. I see what you are saying. I do think Frank is a very good manager, but yeah it's not a case where every manager can make the step up to elite level just with more resources - the same as not every player can be Messi or Ronaldo just because they go to Barca or...

    Champions League 25/26

    You're both arguing your case well. Both sides have some merit. Just my 10 pence.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Says a lot about modern football, because he SHOULD have lost it due to being inferior to Rodri in performances and importance and general footballing ability.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    I don't really agree with the racism, lol. But there is an element of more athletic (faster, stronger) players being liked more these days. And black people tend to be better athletically. Vini is faster and flashier than Kev. That appeals to a lot of fans, even if his game is extremely basic...

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    Just a bit of banter from some boys. But yeah, it's extremely early. I think he can be a contributor over the season but I'd be surprised if he's a key, integral player. That's just my opinion, though.

    Champions League 25/26

    I don't agree with everything, but some good points and well thought out. Great pertinent point that you hint at with transfer fees not being the signifier of success, but wage bill.

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    Well, I certainly agree on that I should clarify my position. I think Rashford can contribute and help the team. But I get the feeling some people here are hoping for big moments in massive games, and I am not sure that will happen. But he can contribute across a season. But it's very doubtful...

    Farmer's league without Brazil 70 and the local dog and duck team.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Yeah it's a good record. But he's the sort of player who stats favours in these things. He's an end product player. No doubt his overall performances were wank in a lot of those games, the Bellingham, Haaland and Cristiano Ronaldo special. And not to be a cunt, but it looks like three games...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Anyway @serghei mate, you are a good lad, I just take issue with some stuff you say and the way you phrase it at times. I accept the difference in opinion.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Ok fair enough. But Salah has been great in plenty of big games too. And there's more to football than 'big games' - it's a modern fan thing to go only by that. I accept your opinion. We will just have to disagree as we clearly think different on certain aspects of football. 'Many games'? It's...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    I don't mean to be harsh, but as someone who's followed football and played football since the 80s, it absolutely flabbergasts me that people could watch peak De Bruyne play and watch peak Vinicius play and go 'yep,. Vinicius is better' It's mental. And I am not even as big a De Bruyne fan as...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Circumstances dictate a lot in football. That's what you are overlooking. And no, talent does not always step up.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Proving my point as Messi would still have been miles more talented. I contend that Salah and De Bruyne are both much more talented than Mbappe and Vinicius. That's not the same as saying the RM men cannot have bigger moments in bigger games. Possession of talent v application of what talent...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Vinicius is doing really well now, isn't he? He's 25 and already looks finished. Whereas Salah has been brilliant for at least 8 years. And reached a level Vinicius isn't capable of. Vinicius is just a one-dimensional cut in and shoot merchant. He has nothing else to his game, which is why he's...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Clutch is a horrible Americanised term that nobody who is a proper football fan cares about. Salah played equally well in the 2022 CL Final, the difference is Courtois saved his shots (even when placed in the corner) and Vinicius scored his. Fine margins and says absolutely fuck all about who...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Aye cos he plays for France. Two were penalties and he was invisible until the 80th minute. Vinicius scored the winner twice while doing fuck all the rest of the game. Moments player. Circumstances don't change my opinion that Salah and especially De Bruyne have a good degree more football...
