Iniesta's a flawed player in some ways and obviously not better than Messi, but to say Messi is undeniably better in every single way because of statistical proof over game-specific performance isn't right. I'm never going to bash Messi to praise Iniesta and vice versa. They're two brilliant...

It's sad to see Villa leave, but I wish him all the best at Atletico.

The guy is simply too emotional and lets that affect his form. If (when) he gets unhappy, he complains that he wants to leave and then dips down in quality. He's been unfit this season and yes he's had a decent output for his amount of playing time but he hasn't been the player he was before. It...

Kind of a stupid comparison. Silva's easily the more established and assured player and would be a massive upgrade to our defense which is our weakest link, but that just undermines Thiago's long term talent and strengthening our midfield which won't be that great for much longer. They're...

Yeah I know that, I'm not condemning him for it :p :lol:

Is that him??? He got fat again

Maybe by some to a certain extent, but easily not the most overrated on the squad

The deal has "gone through" about 7 times already according to the media, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

So now we're taking the position that we should buy anyone just because we can? Are we going in a galactico phase now? Buy Marcos now, develop him well, and we will be better off long term than buying Silva because apparently that'll win us the CL (far from it, Bayern are way ahead right now and...

Oliver is a more versatile, mobile, younger, and well rounded version of Xavi. He doesn't always play at CAM, often dropping deep to set up attacks. He's more box to box in a sense but a pinpoint accurate passer, whether it be long or short.

He has analogies for everything :lol:

Statistically yes, but even though Marcos is a huge talent, Silva looks more assured in his play. It's impressive to see how good he is at barely 19 years old in comparison and gaining experience and maturity with every single game.

He's better than Marquinhos in pretty much every aspect, I agree on that. However the only thing he offers that is insanely better than Marquinhos is leadership and maybe a sense of calm to paranoid fans who don't trust young players. Marcos isn't yet at his level but whatever he's shown points...

I think too much blame is going on Oliver and Suso, who actually dominated the games very well and showed great technical ability. It's just the lack of linking up well with the forwards that made them seem less impressive. I actually found them to be a slightly better pairing than Isco-Thiago...

That was absolutely perfect form on the bicycle, like the Rivaldo one

I really doubt his image would be harmed in the eyes of any football fan that doesn't talk out of their ass. It's a trial for some financial mishaps created by a misunderstanding, not a scandalous crime he committed that changes the way his personality was thought to be viewed. These things blow...

Overall poor performance in terms of finalizing attacks, but he was involved.

Lol both Madrid and United were built around him. Lalas is quite a dumbass.

Landon Donovan probably

Messi's off. I predict Elliason to get 4 goals and become known as the best player in the world.
