    9 - Samuel Eto'o

    Yeah that is a fair point too. Just think overall he was at his best at Arsenal. He was getting older (about 30) when he came to Barcelona and seemed to have lost a bit of pace.

    9 - Samuel Eto'o

    Fair enough. I am more judging Henry by his Arsenal days than his Barca. When he came to Barca he was still good but in decline - he peaked around 2002-2006 for Arsenal and France I think.

    Brazil

    I won't talk about the rest of their team, but on paper they have some good attackers - Pedro, Estevao, Neymar, Vinicius, Raphinha, Endrick, Rodrygo, Cunha. Probably missing some. But dig deeper and plenty of those players have issues with something. Neymar is getting older and his body is...

    Manchester United

    Yeah they are good, solid PL players, but obviously not superstars. Still a big upgrade on the likes of Hojlund, Zirkzee, Garnacho though, who I really think are poor. Also, I guess they'll convert Amad to wing-back now. I actually think he is better as one of the two attacking midfielders. I...

    Yeah I am gonna try to watch tonight's game. Looking forward to watching Spain's passing game. Will see if the Swiss can keep them out.

    Manchester United

    Signed Mbeumo apparently - deal more or less done with medical to come. Paid more than they thought they'd have to and they're loading more on their massive debt via amortising over I believe it is four payments. On the football side, It could work out well for them - as said I do rate he and...

    9 - Samuel Eto'o

    Henry was a fantastic player, but most of his best work came at Arsenal and within the confines of the PL. Eto'o did more on bigger stages but Henry was the more gifted footballer technically for me. He was a better dribbler for me, slicker and perfected that opening the body up and curling into...

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    Fair enough. If he goes I hope he does well at Barca. They need a good backup for Raphinha (if he is content to be backup).

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    Am sure he missed a similar (closer in) FK when it mattered in the QF against France, late on lol. But I digress. Maybe he will do well there. But I don't wanna see Barca burned by this guy.

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    I don't think he had many great matches for England. Other than one game against Wales I can't remember him doing anything at a tournament. Most of the time he's a sub. Fair enough. I respect your opinion and that of the others here. He might do well at Barca in a different environment (if he...

    Lol backed Norway last night and England tonight. Can tell I am much worse at this than the men's games on Superbru :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    Aye true (although in Di Maria's case he downed tools and didn't wanna be there, he also had a previous good CV, unlike Rashy) but Rashford been there for ages and never changed. I mean just because one of their players had a successful loan spell, doesn't mean all their players are great and...

    Ademola Lookman

    Fair enough. Obviously he's a good player but just feel people go a bit OTT about a few things about him. And to be fair, I rate you as a poster and you have given me food for thought. Night.

    @DonAK I do believe what I said and supported some of what i said with evidence, but you're right that my tone was unnecessarily condescending and hostile. Pogba obviously has some degree of talent, but I feel people go over the top about it. And some try to alleviate him of responsibility for...

    Ademola Lookman

    In fact (and not to antagonise you) it gets worse 7 assists in 4 games. That leaves 6 for the rest of the season. Looks like a burst of statistical form more than anything. And doesn't take into account how often he lost the ball and let other teams counter in dangerous spaces. Bruno...

    Ademola Lookman

    I remember him making the team of the year and many people saying it was a laughable joke, as they did when it was Ronaldo. Man United hype I would suggest - he should have been nowhere near the team of the year, which is generally a shitshow anyway. I don't rate him or Rashford in the...

    Ademola Lookman

    Here it is - four assists in the first game of the season against the mighty Leeds. If that is the 13 assists season, that is 1/3 of his total in one game :lol: more context needed...
