    Rodrygo

    Brilliant news. They will continue to try to shoehorn these four overrated players into their team/squad while getting little in return (Vini, Mbappe, Bellend, Rodrygo). The juice really isn't worth the squeeze with these lads. In my view it is better to pick one (my choice is Mbappe), let him...

    Vinícius Júnior

    Interesting. I think it's the other way about - Mbappe is a better player and they've upgraded on Vinicius by signing him, but they're making Mbappe worse by not punting Vini who's currently useless in spaces Mbappe can thrive in if Vini isn't there. Somehow people are saying they should get...

    Yeah that was a bit harsh. Obviously you overrate Ronaldo, but I know you aren't the type to defend him if it was proved it's true. Others would but not you as you are a decent guy. It doesn't change though that those 5 Ronaldos against those players wouldn't be a contest. Also because the 5...

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    That isn't even a debate :lol: The technical ability and genius of those players is infinitely greater than all the Cristiano Ronaldo versions. And he's never even been impressive for Portugal, Juve, and his time as a kid at Sporting is meaningless. But I know you're just trolling lol. Might...

    Vinícius Júnior

    I admit I used to rate him highly, when he was a bit better than now and I wasn't paying full attention, but watching him more closely... He's just a one-dimensional pace merchant. Cut in and shoot...cut in and shoot...cut in and shoot. That basically sums up his entire game. Mbappe is a bit...

    Skipped through that interview (with English subtitles as unlike you I don't speak German, lol) - pretty good. Seems a level headed lass.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    That's true mate. Just mean that Ronaldo takes a lot more shots than Messi, even if Messi takes a lot himself. True Ronaldo is one of the best headers ever, if not the best. It's his biggest GOAT trait for me.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    Fair enough. I can take the banter. Either way, we agree. I guess it was just a bit eyebrow-raising that you thought I was praising Ronaldo over Messi for this when you know I hate Ronaldo, probably even more than you do, and wouldn't go out my way to say anything good about him. I am away to...

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    Tbh, with the way you talk down to myself and other people, and the total lack of need for it, it's abundantly apparent you are younger and immature. And I wouldn't call 43 particularly 'old' either. It's middle aged but most guys on here are about late 30s anyway. There's plenty older guys on...

    Women's football

    Yes it was a silly challenge, but these things happen in football. Switzerland did have the better chances and more of the game, but as the penny dropped that Finland needed a goal, the Finns started to cause them more problems with about half an hour to go. Switzerland got out of jail a bit...

    Feel bad for the Finns. But that was a dumb challenge by the Swiss girl to give away the penalty. The equaliser was a nice goal. They were both likely playing for the privilege of losing to Spain anyway. But Swiss won't care about that at the moment.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    Some reading comprehension issues here me thinks, or taking too much offence as if I said something negative about Messi (when I actually quoted that to praise him and slag Penaldo)... I never said that Ronaldo was better outside the box - I said he tries far too many shots from distance...

    Women's football

    She looked good in the first half - nice cross for the flick, and good shot before that too. Generally decent link up. Switzerland should probably be winning, but of course they only need a draw. They can't think that way though - they have to go for the win.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    Ronaldo is a volume shooter. He takes a lot of shots to score one goal, usually. He was always near or at the top of most shots taken in Europe. Messi is far more clinical. I think I read somewhere that he scored a similar amount of goals in like 1,000 fewer shots than Ronaldo over career. And...

    Ever heard of a stadium/town swap? @Porque Two of my more local clubs, Clyde (based in Cumbernauld, which wasn't their original area anyway, it was Glasgow) and Hamilton Accies, separated by about 17 miles, are now playing in each others' stadiums. Clyde left Broadwood (where they had been...

    How do you know so much about women's football? I didn't realise you followed it.

    Just cos you talked about Alex Morgan looks above (well actually I referenced that first, sorry). But yeah, I don't know that woman player. But I will look her up soon. Canadian right? Do you rate her a lot as a player?
