La Liga president says 'I'm a Real Madrid fan'...hmmm. I assume he means it as he rates the club rather being a fan literally in the sense of a supporter, lol. Edit: just seen he is outed as a supporter. That is very fucked up.

They're even worse on grass.

Mainly first teamers big Ruud has put out. Makes sense - he clearly wants to make an impression in his first game.

Yep. Never rated him as my posts on here show. He is just good at running in big spaces. Sometimes he's ok at taking on a full-back 1 v 1 but he's a poor crosser too. He's 25 now so he can no longer claim to be a raw talent. He will flatter to deceive until he retires, in my opinion. It's...

Two excellent results for me last night in this - especially looking at the percentage of people who predicted the right outcome (plus one is an exact). I predicted 1-1 Milan Napoli though which was wrong - 39 percent did back Napoli. All three games were tough to call last night and very split.

Here's an example, it gives info in terms of odds and form guide. Obviously we can look these up ourselves but it's handy in one place. As a Premium Member I also have access to PL and CL match previews, which are handy. I sometimes read them but I make the decision myself. They're a nice...

I don't follow them all in the sense of watching them etc. But generally you know the best teams in leagues, who plays for them etc. They also post odds for most games that give you an idea of the favourites etc. Even if you don't follow the leagues, it is worth playing. It is free (though I pay...

Thanks. Yeah in PL especially. I have a fair amount of top 1,2,3 4, 5 percent finishes over the last several seasons in various leagues. Got a top 3 percent finish for the Euros and top 7 percent for Copa America. Some a bit lower too. I did post my entire career on that page 98 of the Premier...

Here are tonight and tomorrow's predictions, for various leagues. Also have Venezia 1-2 Udinese and Empoli 0-2 Inter just started. Might change to Aberdeen win - they're doing well this season.

Fair examples, but I would say it's not a 100 percent success rate. I admit I am surprised that Xavi has not turned out to be an exceptional coach (so far), but I would say Rassvet's point stands in that midfielders are more likely to know about the game tactically because of spatial awareness...

That's a nice kit Neymar is wearing there. I like that shade of blue, and I am always partial to kits where the colours are the same in every item (eg Liverpool all-red).

So the ladies say.

I had one a few months ago but wasn't happy with that photo of Maradona and took it down. I quite like his expression and the fact he's not looking directly at the camera in this one. The goatee is a bit Jeffrey Dean Morgan though, lol.

Yeah I like him, even if he does troll. He seems fair when he isn't trolling. He gives due props to good posts.

I'd like to tell you, but not rising to your attempts to bait me. Don't think I haven't noticed it ;) I am sure you are a nice enough guy, but it does seem a bit like you're trying to wind me up at times. No offence intended. Edit: you have highlighted what I recognise myself, though. That I...

Yeah the goal against Belgium was beautiful. I love the assist in the final for the goal that made it 3-2 to win the trophy, too. The Belgians, as you correctly say, had a golden generation then and he pissed all over them.

I agree with your post fully. Btw that photo looks amazing. But I am sure I read that it is after the Belgian wall split after blocking a free-kick. It wasn't actually 6 players marking him. Though he destroyed them so they probably should have put 6 players on him at all times :lol: The...

Yes. He's a good lad. He did troll though in the Messi and Ronaldo threads and bring on some of the negativity himself lol. But in general I hope he knows it's just banter and most people don't dislike him (I don't think).

To be fair to Fati, he told me he was gonna take a break from the forum. And that was even before the Bayern game. I think he's maybe a bit bored of it all right now. Nothing wrong with taking some time away.

Just received an email with a link to this article. I am unsure where to post it but it's relevant to Messi both in terms of the debate and the article itself. I have always said it's an advantage to be shorter in football, if you are not a goalkeeper or central defender (or target man...
