People think that about them all the time, don't worry. I am sure they will be back eventually. It could be soon as football changes quickly. However, there is so much competition in the PL now and they are left behind. They can't spend due to PSR, or sell because of the idiots putting their...

To be fair I haven't posted for weeks so I know that.

I have had this discussion with you before. It is worse than Aston Villa's squad. I have said this many times - people overrate their players simply because they wear a Man United shirt and because of United's past under Ferguson. For instance Morgan Rogers is miles more talented than Alejandro...

Very good player. A bit overrated but par for the course being English and playing for Man U. Still a top player in his day. Though all the talk that he could play in midfield when he got older was hilarious at the time and proved utterly clueless when he did get older. Inconsistent touch and...

You're the type of guy who thinks someone is 'great defensively' because they are tall, run about and have muscles and a six-pack.

That sums him up completely. Let the stats merchants on here who have never kicked a ball though lick his arsehole. It's also another example of someone finally coming back into form and the rats coming out from under their holes. They will disappear again when he goes on a statless run.

He's your type of player because of the 'glitz and glamour' around him - you see football as entertainment, not a sport, and you are obsessed with stats. Saying people are bitter because 'he's better than their club's midfielders' is silly and an extremely weak point as you could apply that to...

He's at Bournemouth not Palace, but he did look good in the games or two I seen him in.

Fair enough, thanks for the info. Aye I overlooked the height advantage despite watching it a bit in the Olympics (and prior Olympics). That all makes sense then about it being a game for giants like basketball is. It's interesting that Asian and African teams have got far here and there in...

Yeh and Rivaldo is away up at the top left out of sight lol.

I think he's a decent coach, but 'clear his name' made me laugh. It sounds like he's been on trial for theft or something lol.

True. I agree with you. Many people will boil it down to stats even though they shouldn't. I agree there. I just posted in Ronaldo's thread about it. Thinking Messi is Ronaldo's superior is a popular opinion, the general consensus. However, thinking he's much better, as I do, is less common...

I disagree about Ronaldo (both on his looks, i don't rate his looks and many women don't too and the other stuff, Messi was far better at football outside of just stats). I don't think Ronaldo comes close to Messi, but we can disagree there. Bellingham to me is a good player but more of an end...

Like I said in his thread, the striker market doesn't seem that great now. Is there a single striker in the world (other than Haaland) who measures up to Lewy himself in his prime, Suarez, Benzema, Aguero, Zlatan? I think as inverted forwards became popular maybe fewer young players wanted to...

I know nothing about how good most teams are other than what I gleaned from the Olympics. At the risk of sounding Eurocentric I expect the best teams are all in Europe? I could google it in seconds I guess. Looking at the wikipedia page Egypt are the only non-Euro team in the top pot so I guess...

Yeah it is a bit weird to discuss some players' looks but Tempt kept dragging me into it. I don't really care, other than Ronaldo who I never understood how any women liked him. But yeah, should stop outside of Caffe Catalonia.

Yes, Lewy seems a decent guy to me, and I would love for him to make me eat my words and help Barca to one or both of the two big trophies. It would be a nice ending to his career to top it off with a CL trophy for Barca then go somewhere else or retire. But it just looks miles away from...

Yeah they might be gambling that they can carry him in general play and hoping he will pop up and finish the chances in enough games to win the league, or enough big games to go deep in the Champions League. However, it is a very risky strategy given his age and his poor general play. In his...

It's one of those where it looks great in photoshopped pics but you know if he grew it in real life candid pics would look nowhere near as good as those. But yeah, it would definitely improve his creepy looks.

No opinion on his comments about Ronaldo as I didn't hear them, but yeah the stuff about Maguire and the Glazers is dumb,
