    10 - Lamine Yamal

    That would be incredible. To have won La Liga, the CL, the Euros and the World Cup (and maybe the Nations League and CDR for more minor trophies) at the age of 18/just turned 19. It's a long road and there's a lot of work to do over the next 14 months for that happen, but it certainly is not...

    Premier League 24/25

    Something of a conspiracy theory, but could make sense. I'd be more inclined to get behind it fully though if they had done very well in the league and he was randomly sacked out of the blue. However, the politics amongst Israel and Palestine may have played its part, yes.

    Lionel "The Greatest of All Time" Messi V2

    Look how deep he is, he's in his own half, and then compare how Ronaldo plays on the shoulder all game for Portugal. And it's been like this for many years. Yet still some people compare them on 'goals scored', lol.

    Manchester United

    I did have (some) hair last time they won it, and when Ferguson was last there. I shaved my heid in November 2013.

    If that was the case why would they even hire him in the first place? Surely they would do due diligence and know most if not all things about staff, especially a head coach.

    Premier League 24/25

    Feel bad for the lad, I know they had a shocking league campaign but he did win the EL. Still, it could prove a good decision, IF they have someone competent lined up. Look at how Bournemouth improved when they went from O'Neil to Iraola.

    Thanks. Fair enough. Just that video shows a lot of long range strikes. But obviously it's a reasonable point that Mbappe might have better ball striking.

    Yeah obviously I agree as I have said on here before. The 'but still' was just me being nice.

    World Cup '26 qualifiers discussion

    I agree. While it is great for the players, coaches and fans of the nations who have more shot at qualifying now (mainly in Africa and Asia), it will certainly dilute the quality of the tournament. I feel 32 was already a struggle for quality teams so 48 is, ya know... Also, a 48 team World Cup...

    Better off signing Forrest Gump.

    Serie A

    Actually, I am fine with you these days. And hold no animosity. We traded some blows - sometimes it got very heated, but overall I bear no grudges or anything. I am not the type of guy to hold grudges and always willing to let bygones by bygones. It's you who will not bury the hatchet with me...

    @Fati_Future_BallonDor @MonteCuler Thoughts on Jordan and Uzbekistan reaching their first ever World Cup? Thanks to the expansion obviously, but still.

    Manchester City

    It was superb stuff. The games were all played at a frenetic pace and you could tell that Guardiola and Klopp respected each other highly, and the players of the opposite team. Even in that Man City All or Nothing, Pep talks quite a few times about being terrified of Mane, Salah and Firmino, lol.

    Manchester City

    I don't think that Pep-Klopp City-Liverpool era of battles in the league and that tie in the CL will be topped anytime soon in English football. That was mesmerising stuff.

    Kaká

    Aye he looks good. Healthy and fit also.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    Yeah Vinicius and Mbappe are both great players, but they're more reliant on speed, space, running in straight lines than Lamine is. Lamine is quick but doesn't need to be. The way he twists and turns, nutmegs people or turns them inside out in small areas is very key to his ability to then...

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    The whole video of his footage is fantastic, but I have said before that the goal at 1.42 is so so special. I watched that game live a few months ago and it's just the way he's going away from goal but just glides like a gazelle and effortlessly all in his stride curls the ball into the far...

    Managers rate poor players all the time.

    Ballon d'Or 2025

    So true about Beckham's international career too. I do think he was a top player but he was a major failure for England. 1998 - sent off, England eliminated 2000 - average at best like his team-mates as they go out in groups. 2002 - jumped out of tackle with Roberto Carlos that led to (of all...
