Count Doku.

Maybe just me but been a pretty boring game. Still on for my France 1-0 Mbappe prediction though.

Yeah people talk about Saka like he's as good as Salah or will be. He's miles off in natural talent and stats too. He's really a bit overhyped. He doesn't impress me that much.

In the top 24,000 out of nearly 2 million on uefa.com predictor. In the top 3 percent on Superbru (about 150,000-200,000 players). Not sure if I can keep this going - been very lucky with last minute goals and misses.

Football isn't just stats. You can see by his first touch, his dribbling, his crossing, his game intelligence, that he is significantly more talented than Saka. Of course he won't have lots of goals and assists yet - he's not even hit his 17th birthday. Now whether he fulfils this potential is...

Gone for 1-0 France. Might be a cagey game. Or could be open, who knows.

No, I am talking about the 9 seasons he was there. In those seasons, some teams were better than others, due to coaching and player turnover. However, the common denominator - Ronaldo - won 2 titles in 9 seasons with all those different teams. He had most European success in the second half of...

Yes, and I am still right - 2 Ligas in 9 seasons. However, Ronaldo's time at Real Madrid is not a monolith - obviously SOME OF THE TEAMS in that 9 year timeframe will be better than others. He's the common denominator but the team around him (other than the likes of Benzema and Ramos) changed...

I never said 11/12, did I? I was talking about under Zidane. More reading comprehension issues for you. Yes you were excellent in 11/12 (though not my style of football, too much counter-attack). You clearly do though - as you said I don't rate Real Madrid under Zidane, when what I implied is...

Anyway, fuck this. I have better things to do than have such a pedantic debate about Real Madrid and Ronaldo of all clubs and people. They're not worth the fingers I use to type with. Cya later.

Well they weren't in my opinion. In my opinion Barca were comfortably better, and in 17-18 Man City were easily better. Therefore, even if they were the second best team, they weren't close. I saw you get outplayed loads by Barca and in the CL under Zidane. I don't think you were the best team...

Well capable of reading apparently, yet interpet me saying Real Madrid weren't close to the best team in Europe as me saying I don't rate them at all (your words). Me thinks you're taking extra offence and not reading it properly, jumping the gun, because I am criticising the club you support...

Again, tell me where me thinking that RM weren't as good as Barca (despite winning 2017 La Liga), or close, and weren't as good as Man City in 2017-2018, implies I don't rate them? I'd love for you to explain how I said I don't rate them at all. I will give you the benefit of the doubt as...

Also, why are do many absolute dickheads find it difficult to read on here? Or have comprehension problems? Apparently me saying Real Madrid 'weren't close to the best team in Europe' means I don't rate them. They were a top team, they just weren't as good as Barca and then Man City under Pep...

Harder as in it's harder to run 20 steps than 10. And even if it was super duper absolutely hard, they clearly failed domestically by winning 2 titles in 9 seasons while rapist was there (y) So it is irrelevant anyway.

Yeah joining Real Madrid, the biggest club in the world, when they're on a massive rebuild, is not an easy path. Get real mate, they were clearly gonna be successful with how much they were getting serious. Either way, whichever is easier - staying at United or going to RM - you can't call...

It doesn't matter. It was clear that Perez was serious about building a super team and trying to compete with Barcelona. The signings of guys like Ronaldo, Kaka and Benzema prove that. It was clear that change was on the horizon. And they failed. They won 2 ligas to Barca's 6 in the 9 seasons...

Fair enough on all that. I am willing to reserve judgement too - he's still so young. The point about the last paragraph is he (and the team) were abysmal the entire game. he scores a wonderful goal, sure, but his classless rubbing it into the opposition and screaming 'who else' like they'd...

PR7 The media keep trying to force him into the Messi, Maradona, Pele level. They know he is big controversy and generates clicks, so why would they be against him? It's in their vested interests to suck up to him. A serious, professional media that didn't care about clicks would never elevate...

Yeah he got away with it big time. He only made two subs in normal time I believe, and would have been crucified had they not scored.
