I think a challenge system is a good idea, as well as getting rid of the clear and obvious error nonsense.

I remember thinking it was a nice little drag by Mazraoui too for the goal. Great by Hojlund but he was poor against Arsenal I thought.

Yeah I don't agree with scapegoating him when he has a bad game - but he obviously needs a lot of service too. Which is fine at his age, but he cannot go on forever.

I agree.

I haven’t read the posts, but I have thought about it and realised I overreacted and was being unfair to Thierry (in my now deleted rant). I guess I was in a bad mood at the time and venting my annoyance and he was my target. He was obviously an outstanding player, which I never disputed, he...

Definitely Eto'o. Premfaces think Eto'o is nowhere near Henry (I have seen a lot of them say it). Because they're clueless and don't watch other leagues.

The child who has never kicked a ball still talking bollocks I see. Back on ignore for the American, Drake worshipping kid with the attitude problem who talks down to everyone, despite offering absolutely no insight whatsoever. Nobody with sense takes you seriously. Your football takes are...

Yeah I have heard of Boniek and vaguely remember him, he is a legend. I think it was Beckenbauer who popularised the libero/sweeper role. Germany has a lot of history with it as he, Matthaus and Sammer, amongst others, have allplayed the role. Don't really remember enough of Boniek in it...

Yeah it's a combination of advancements in medicine, nutrition and sports science, and better balls, pitches and boots, less thuggish football (though some bad stuff can still happen now, but relatively speaking). I think it's also a mindset thing - a lot of players are much more serious about...

Fair enough, pretty good post and I agree with most of it. But the thing is - Lewa is praised here when he does well, and criticised when he doesn't, the same as any other player. The trolls who have posted here (and this is a good post by you) have made all sorts of excuses for his bad games...

I don't know how much you know about Liverpool's history, but if you haven't heard of him, google Tommy Smith. Bit of a hard nut. Smith used psychological ploys to threaten and intimidate opposition players.[43] That said, he certainly had the respect of his peers, with fellow professional Jack...

I meant the looks stuff.

Haven't heard it but probably decent. I am making one post on this as Andresito doesn't like this sort of talk or off-topic stuff - but Shearer is a good looking bald bloke. Good body too. I can imagine women thinking he's the rough and ready type. OTOH, Danny Murphy looks like a troll.

There were some guys from the 60s, 70s and 80s who were said to be hard. Dave McKay stands out as one. Chopper Harris as another. They might just have been on pitch hard men, though.

Aye Shearer was weirdly hard. You wouldn't really think he would be, but he was. Going bald toughened the lad up. By that logic Horatio is the toughest guy here.

Yeah i was gonna mention that story. I think it might have happened more than once. I think the first time was when he was up here at Rangers. I don't really care who is hard and who isn't - I myself am a placid guy who doesn't get into fights, and I don't care about a footballer's hardness. My...

Correct, Duncan is the real deal. Absolutely clueless about football too, but an actual hard guy. Not too sure on Vinnie. Probably back in the day but he's mellowed a lot it would appear.

Just seen Roy Keane offer a fan out in the cark park for the 'crime' of saying he is a better pundit than he is manager (missed it at the time). Was any lie told? All these ex-Ferguson players have a very-narrow minded 'United in the 90s and 2000s is the only way' mindset, from Keane to...

Horatio W Proves my point about fine margins - I go from green to red with almost the lack kick of the football.

Exactly, he clearly meant it. Their winning goal looked slightly offside too.
