    Is anyone of y'all from New Zealand?

    No I am not, but welcome to the site. Good to have you here.

    Liverpool

    In November. It might be a good game to watch.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    They hate Barcelona, and it's 100 percent PTSD from the two CL Finals under Pep. As for Messi - there are Messi fans there, but the ones who don't like him are the Ronaldo sycophants. After Ronaldo screwed United over before the World Cup a lot turned on him, but there were and are some who...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    I am not on Redcafe, Smiler - I have had the odd account just to make a post, and then leave, but I just lurk it. I have probably made ten posts there in 16 years over a few accounts. I will never make one again, though. I like to read different football forums, though a lot of the time it's...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Slot has got you more controlled and very settled down which I like. I did watch the Leipzig highlights and it looks like you conceded a lot of chances to them. It could have been the way the highlights were edited though to make it seem like Leipzig applied lots of pressure. How long is...

    Iñaki Peña (loaned to Elche)

    One of my favourite films. Both the short European cut and the longer American one. Half the time the guy handles the ball like he's playing in the snow.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Fair enough. I think Rodri is the best player in the world (when fit) and he is extremely important to them. I still think they might be able to do it without him though. But you may well be right. Time will tell. I wouldn't put my house on them winning it, that's for sure. Boring as fuck but...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Fair enough points on the first paragraph possibly yeah. Maybe myself and Smiler have a more pessimistic outlook. As for the second, I don't think you can overlook Man City. They are always there or thereabouts. I know they're in an average moment right now performance-wise but they tend to...

    Yes I agree La Liga is more likely. It's boring to say But Man City and Real Madrid are still the favourites for the CL based on recent seasons as well as how they get the job done, and the players they have. I feel Barca lack the experience as of yet. They could win the CL, but I agree that the...

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Yes it is still early days. But the signs are definitely good for Barcelona right now. Much work to be done though as you imply mate - the hard part of the season is yet to come. With the young profile of the team it is a while away from peaking, likely several years, and there's always turnover...

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    Yeah you make fair enough points there. I am not FULLY convinced, but definitely what you say is very reasonable to say and makes sense. Redcafe can be good when it's not about United or their rivals or anything like that, as it is brutally biased towards their own team. There are a lot of very...

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    So I read through this earlier - a lot of interesting stuff, good discussion points, and some hot takes I wasn't sure of too. But overall it was a good discussion that I liked reading. I notice you said Yamal is not on Neymar's level technically. I am not convinced about that and I am one of...

    Iñigo Martínez

    Yeah I usually like and agree with a good amount of what jamrock says too, Zeni. I have liked Kimmich for a long time, but he is getting older, has more injury issues, and does appear to be on the slide a bit. I also think his composure under pressure looks worse than it used to, whether he's...

    Manchester United

    They really should have lost again tonight, lol. They did make mistakes themselves though - Dalot has awful positioning and his decision to cross to Rash instead of Hojlund (latter was in a better position) in the second half was criminal.

    Europa League

    In hindight, should have stuck to 2-2. That's two Man United games in a row I have cost myself points by changing at last moment. Got Rangers-Steaua completely wrong too, lol. I believe I still have 5/9 correct outcomes tonight, which is ok.

    Europa League

    I don't rate him but to be fair he has done that fairly often this season, he is capable of a wonder save or two. It's not his first double save of the season. They needed that and the Ugarte block too because Fener have been the better team tbh. Eriksen is still very good technically - lovely...

    Europa League

    @Fati_Future_BallonDor Not a bad start with the early games - just a shame was unable to swing an exact with one of these five close It would have been 6/7, but PAOK equalised in the 93rd minute (the live now games are finished, just not been updated yet on the site).

    Europa League

    Tadic, Saint-Maximin and En-Nesyri is a pretty good front three to go up against United. The Moroccan is exactly the type of strong, annoying number 9 that United have struggled with in recent years. With Dzeko to come off the bench maybe too I think both defences could be shaky so I am going...

    Sergio Busquets

    Sneijder was a player I rated a lot. But he needs to stay off the pies rather than worrying about Busquets's personality or perceived lack of guts.

    Europa League

    I can't decide between 2-2 in this game or 3-2 Fener.
