    Ballon d'Or 2025

    That was indeed pathetic, especially given that Rodri really deserved it.

    Ballon d'Or 2025

    I actually like EEAAO lol, but yeah I agree with the general sentiment. It's a politically and marketing charged award and individual awards in football don't make much sense to me - never have. Some great films there by the way - most well-known but Strangelove is one that the younger...

    Ballon d'Or 2025

    Actually I remember watching that season the whole way through, and the general consensus was that Keane and Beckham outperformed Giggs and Scholes across the whole season in that midfield (though most agreed Giggs and Scholes were very good too). I believe you are seriously under-crediting...

    Ballon d'Or 2025

    Beckham was an excellent, world-class player, but Rivaldo was a comfortably better player and I agree he was better that season (and most if not all seasons he was at Barca). If you go back and watch United's treble season, Beckham was great in many games, but it was actually Keane who drove...

    Ballon d'Or 2025

    Always respect Birdy's opinion as he's a good poster, but disagree heavily that Beckham, Iniesta and Lewy (2021) were robbed. Rivaldo and Messi were sensational in 1999 and 2010 respectively, certainly Beckham and Iniesta weren't so amazing that you can call it a robbery. Beckham was excellent...

    Sevilla

    Hahaah was just playing. Just wanted to give you an excuse to post that again, lol.

    Sevilla

    They seem to have had a whole host of problems in recent years - jumping from coach to coach. Hopefully they can get back to being a top 4-7 team in La Liga. Will always remember fondly their many EL trophy wins.

    Sevilla

    He scored another big penalty in a shootout too - maybe you can refresh my memory? ;)

    I wonder if they'll start calling him Old Trafford when he gets past 35.

    You're more late than Ronaldo's first World Cup knockout goal.

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    True, they wanna sell him but are stuck with him after giving him that mammoth contract. But continuing loaning him out is like putting a band aid on a gaping wound. Maybe they'd be better just keeping him and trying to get something out of him again and trying to offset his 'toxic' attitude...

    Inter Milan

    @Horatio Btw is that Gon from Hunter x Hunter in your avatar? Great show, seen up to Greed Island and restarted it after that as left it too long to continue on from there.

    Inter Milan

    He's a big Serie A fan (not Inter specifically), and is on record as saying he prefers Milan to Inter as his dad likes Milan. He wanted Napoli to win the league. Unfair to make him out to be an Inter liker.

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    I don't think United will go for that. He's already had one loan and they want him out for good apparently.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    He's great but think some people reckon he only looks good cos of VVD. I disagree with that. He's tall, extremely strong, good in the air, quick, reads the game well. I like him.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Yeah liked him since the World Cup. Gone from strength to strength since then.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Yeah. They'd have been better off taking the transfer fee. Hindsight is a wonderful thing I guess. But you should never turn down 80m for a CB - especially one who's only 'decent' like him.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    That's mental of Inter isn't it. Not saying this out of hindsight but was never much of a fan of Skriniar in the first place. Seemed to fit Inter and Serie A like a glove but he could never play in this more dynamic PSG team.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    I forgot Skriniar - seems like he was a total flop for them.

    14 - Marcus Rashford

    I have watched him extensively for almost a decade - don't be fooled by YouTube videos that can make anyone seem brilliant, his general play is poor and he can only play in counter-attack systems. Most of the time Barca have to break down defences. There are counter attacking moments too, of...
