Not so much bottling as very indecisive - apparently it's a big part of my personality type :lol: I will give an opinion then: Salah, Robben (I have a personal liking for Arjen as a player), Ribery, Hazard, Bale. I would expand more but I am honestly trying to post less and gonna go offline...

You are worrying over nothing mate - everyone here knows you haven't got a bad bone in your body and wouldn't harm a fly. Just some think you are trolling and get a little bored of it (not saying me, but others). But I get you love Ronaldo a lot. Anyway just relax mate - let's not take the...

Agree, this is the one for me. He's a good player to a point, but simply gets far more credit than he deserves from plenty.

Lol much too hard, all brilliant players. My list today would be different from tomorrow. Good idea for a thread, though.

He won't permaban you - he knows you are a good lad who is fun to have around the forum because of your happiness and bubbliness. You make the forum a better place (in all threads but this one when you troll, lol).

Don't be upset mate. It's just banter and none of those guys who mock you mean any real ill-will against you - it's just a forum. Now and then you do make a trolling post. It doesn't bother me much but there are other people who it does, so I would say maybe just don't provoke at those moments.

To be fair, I think he did genuinely believe Ronaldo was a midfielder then. Other times he has been trolling but this time I think he was being serious. I know it seems like a very simple thing to get wrong (a classic winger being a midfielder) but some people don't know as much about tactics...

Fati is a nice guy to be fair - he never insults or attacks anyone. I know he can post some stuff that seems just for trolling (like this here) but he doesn't mean anything nasty by it. He's a good kid.

Yeah he switched from being a right winger to an inverted cutting inside winger on his left foot. He did both jobs at Man United but he became a permantent 'left wing forward' at Real. At Man United he was a classic winger from 2003 to 2006 but had already become a 'false winger' by 2007.

I have said before that being short is an advantage for a footballer, in all areas other than GK and CB (and striker if playing as a target man). I am short and I don't think I would be as good a dribbler as I have been, and have the ability to twist and turn on a dime, if I was taller and less...

Just a few quick posts then back to my tidying, washing clothes, going out walks and films, lol.

Thanks for the info mate - I have always liked them too as far back as 1986, when I was 4. Great video too -love your passion and knowledge for the team.

A traditional winger in a 4-4-2 isn't a midfielder - he didn't have many defensive duties, he didn't play like Beckham for example, hugging the touchline, delivering crosses etc, and Ferguson used him as the main goalscorer even in his 4-4-2, as he often went higher while forwards came deeper...

Yeah football is by a mile my favourite sport. Then track and field in second place. Tennis and swimming after that. Just posting very very infrequently for a while so you won't see much of me on the forum for a while. Enjoy the chatting lads.

Don't worry, scoring too many goals will never be a problem for Scotland.

I have heard of him, will check him out. Going offline now to watch this game, tidy, then sleep. Look out for reviews of three or four films watched today from me tomorrow (though likely nothing you are interested in: Red One and two Paddington films). Goodnight m8.

We are actually winning, fucking hell.

I get what you mean - he is called the atomic flea. He moves with quick little legs. I get what you mean that he doesn't glide. I can definitely see the difference in his dribbling style to the players you mention. They all seem like they're moving like a tornado is behind them, with large...

Fair enough. Those are all very intelligent points. Only thing I would respectfully MAYBE disagree with is the idea that Messi isn't graceful or elegant. I can see why someone would hold that opinion as he's a lot muscle memory too, but he makes it look effortless to me. In a different way to...

Craig Gordon in goal for Scotland - he is still ok but was born in the same year as me ffs. Clark and Kelly are poor goalkeepers. Some people rate Angus Gunn - more like water pistol for me. Grant Hanley and John Souttar is a desperate CB pairing. Ralston at RB is very poor. Front 6 is better...
