Don't think anyone uses them as a model. And how many teams throughout history can be used as models? Brazil '70, Milan' 90, Ajax '95, Barca' 09/10/11 etc But they are motivated as hell and never give up. Barca in transition - completely shit Madrid in transition - win titles and CLs(not in...

Yeah, gotta score through a philosophy. It has to be poetry in motion.

Come on man, those are kids. As a kid I would have killed to meet R9 or Rivaldo. And he is Messi after all. The phone picture thing is in line with the social media driven world that we live in. They surely got lots of likes and friend requests after that. And even in the past, a picture is the...

Shit old manager. Pochettino, Nagelsman or ETH are better.

Jesus, what a goal from Valverde.

Vinicius looked a bit offside. Oh well, classic Madrid win at the death.

Now watch Sevilia play long balls to Rafa Mir and win 1-2.

Of course it changes the whole thing. First off, they had to move the competition at the end of the season and games weren't influenced by league/cups fixtures. They were playing in mid August. Also, some results wouldn't be the same with double legged fixtures. City would have beaten Lyon over...

I'm not saying he's terrible. But the hype around him on this forum is unreal and unwarranted.

Sampaoli is a boss. If Sevilla back him in the market next season then he'll surprise many people.

He hasn't built shit. Basically got Kovac's team and won that lucky Covid CL, against a weak Barca, Lyon and barely got over PSG in the final. People rave about sextuple with Bayern like we don't know that only trophy that matters is the CL from that run. A broken CL that season. Bayern didn't...

So the others you mentioned are better because they haven't won shit. While old man Ancelotti won all 5 top leagues and CL last year(so not 10 years ago) beating Pep, Tuchel and Pochettino. I too like young managers, that come up with new styles or ideas. Even though there is lots of folklore...

Bielsa has more philosophy than all combined. Unfortunately for football he is a nutcase.

b as in bums

ETH, Nagelsman, Poch are better managers than LL and CL winner Ancelotti? These are hype standings for tweeter/reddit aficionados. Also, Bumsy Flick will gonna live forever on that lucky run with Bayern. If he'll have the courage to get back into top club management he'll get found out.

Probably smashed the TV at home after Casemiro's late equaliser

Anyway, good night once again. Food, drinks and football were top drawer. My liver wouldn't cope with all this if Barca would also be a top team right now. :lol:

You might have a point here. Messi always appreciated top players and wanted to be alongside the best. He and Neymar are not even friends outside the pitch, but probably that's more down to Neymar being a baller and Messi a family guy.

This. Even though, as much as I've said he is a bum even before joining, I wouldn't mind him pulling off this kind of performance as a rotation player.

Dunno tbf. This season he and Messi did good while Mbappe was missing. But I guess Messi usually gets on well with high quality players. Bernat turned into prime Alba for a second there.
