We will have to agree to disagree. I am not a fan of giving players 'time' when it's abundantly obvious to me it won't change. You'd probably have advocated giving Schneiderlin, Fred, Herrera 'time' in the past. Zirkzee is a good example - I think you rate him so much because he's a...

Also, you don't need to 'wait until the third season ends' to do an analysis. Football isn't about letting things get worse and then finally making a decision - use some foresight. It's obvious they're fucked with him there (and without him to be fair) and it doesn't take a full season to know...

It isn't knee-jerk ffs. They've been wank for 18 months! Look at them getting outplayed most games and their record over the last 16-17 games in the league. Nothing is changing. I and others have predicted this, have predicted the poorness of their signings etc - look what I said about de Ligt...

Yeah, 'love' was a bad comment, fair. But you rate him higher than many, that's what I meant. His first season flattered him a little on the metrics, but yes, of course it was far better than last season and this season. There were still signs there in my opinion though that it was ready to...

Either way, to reiterate, I do not agree with attacking people on here for their football opinions in general unless they're trolling, whether it's people attacking Birdy or Birdy replying in kind. Someone like Rassvet is different as his only aim is to instigate and he has zero interest in...

I don't feel bad for their fans either - MOST of them are deluded cunts who overrate their players, underrate those of other teams, and are wrong about absolutely everything. They deserve this too.

You could see progress with Klopp and Arteta; you can only see regression and absolute amateur hour with Ten Hag.

Also, birdy IT ISN'T KNEE-JERK or an 'agenda' (the most abused word on football forums). United have been wank for donkey's years, and have looked abysmal under Ten Hag for at least 18 months now. It's not like they've been dominating teams and today is a result out of nowhere. That's a bad...

I don't agree with the mobbing, and I think your heart is in the right place. I do like you and think you add better than just saying 'he's shit/he's good' or the likes. But I do stand by my belief that you put way too much stock in the metrics, when you need a balance of metrics and trusting...

Also, to whoever wrote that it's heartbreaking that United are struggling. Why is it heartbreaking? They're a cunt of a club who ruled through the terror of a classless bully in the 90s and 2000s, and never showed any grace or humility whatseover. Arrogance and hubris runs through that club and...

@Birdy mate, I like you, think you're a nice guy and articulate, fairly intelligent. But the problem you have is you're far too much of an idealistic 'theory man;. Now don't get me wrong, I am like that to an extent too. But you're like it to a destructive extent. You don't need to analyse...

Anyway, it doesn't really matter to me who won what, who played for who etc. It's just obvious to me as a long-time football fan and player and from watching them, that Van Dijk or Ramos or even Pique have more ability than Varane. It's just something that's very obvious to me - even if Varane...

It's Ronaldo fanboys like you who do that. Claim Ronaldo was playing with pub players and did everything by himself. When actually, Real Madrid achieved most success when he stopped being more of an all-round player and being the tip of the spear. Highlighting the importance of his team-mates.

Fair enough. I also never said he was lucky - I said he wasn't as talented as other defenders playing at the same time and was a contributor but not one of the most important players at Real Madrid. Which I stand by.

I don't even like Liverpool. I don't like any of the top English teams. But it's obvious than Van Dijk was better than Varane. Forget what they have won and WATCH THEM over the last 10 years. Van Dijk was so much more dominant and the main defender for Liverpool. Varane was always Ramos's...

I love it personally. Guess they can console themselves with being 'the most popular sports team on the planet' eh? Appealing to lemmings is more important than being good at your job, right?

Terrible team aren't they. No idea how they keep fooling people into thinking they have hope. Also, their fans seem to love Dalot for some reason. He was an absolute abomination in that half. Seen their fans say they're scared Real Madrid will come for him. What fucking planet do they live on.

Fair enough

Really need Raphinha to come inside Young Boys and shoot/finish.

Fati - you're wowing me but it's true isn't it? He's so one-dimensional. All he ever does is get it wide and try to cut inside the full-back to shoot if on the left, or cut in on his left to shoot if on the right. He tries the same tricks and moves over and over and over again. He's like a mini...
