Yes. Maybe I am being very harsh. These things happen in fast football. I just feel that we have to judge him by the standards of the players he is compared to. Messi, Pele, Maradona et al likely make that pass.

Chance for Bruno at the end sums up his limitations as a footballer. Bruno is travelling at top speed and Ronaldo plays it behind him and doesn't get his angles right in the sense of playing it into his path. Bruno then misses as a result.

' "When Cristiano Ronaldo played at United, Rooney did all the work but Cristiano took all the glory," he said. "He was the one who was getting the goals. Rooney ran, fought and made far more of a team sacrifice than the player from Madeira."' Zlatan comments. Zlatan doesn't seem to like...

Yep Cucurella Jr looks a really talented lad.

Yeah that is a fair point. Plus Haaland is much younger. I would suggest as I said above though that Lewa is only playing for Poland out of love for the nation, as well as to keep his profile up. He knows he can't really do anything to make them too much better.

Fair point. He is 36 still though so we have to watch if he can maintain his level at Barca in particular. But I generally agree with you, good post.

He obviously feels a lot of pride in playing for his country too. Obviously Poland will never win anything but that doesn't stop Salah, Haaland and others playing for their national teams. Unless you are playing for a superpower nation most players (of all levels) accept they're playing...

Yeah he's very good, it's weird how no one mentions his name. Inter have been one of the top six or seven teams in Europe you could say too.

Brilliant, a little un-Italy like though. You expect that sort of build up from Spain. What a pass from di Marco.

Fair enough, and would concur. Spain have other options at RB. It would still be good if he can improve his game for the NT though and give them even more choices.

In the past. Re-quoting since you fixed your typo. Hope you have been ok btw mate.

Porro normally looks one of Tottenham's better players. Might be one of those where he just plays well for club but not country. Like Ronaldo @Fati_Future_BallonDor :lol: ;)

Spain have never replaced the cutting edge that Villa and Torres (pre-decline) gave them,. Nico, Olmo and Yamal started showing signs they can do it and helped them win the Euros, so hopefully now they can maintain that. I agree that they look more predictable usually but I think it goes for...

Hasn't he only been on YouTube less time than it took Boris Becker to impregnate that slut in a restaurant closet?

Yeah we are pish so they don't need his goalscoring ability to beat us. They could probably play Ronaldo JR in his place and still hammer us.

Tbh mate Fernandes is normally poor for Portugal. He only performs against minnows and moderate at best teams in qualifying. Come the tournaments he's pretty average and that's being nice. Fair play on them sharing free-kicks though. Fernandes did hit the bar with a beauty against Villa.

I bet he gets all the credit too LOL. Less impressive than leao, but it's like how Mendes produced a magnificent cross last month for Ronaldo's winner against Scotland but Ronald takes all the credit, lol. Noone will ever remember what Mendes and Leao did.

Yeah he might be a decent lad, tbh I don't know as I only know about him as a footballer.

Haven't even seen the goal or any game tonight, but thumbs upping this as I have saw that so many times from him - stealing team-mates' goals lol.

That's Leao's main trick, running and beating people with pace. He's not very good at most other things.
