yeah, betis will sink with atletico and barca regaining form. best result for us would have been a betis win.

tbf there might be some truth to it. possibly because riqui is a smug teenager from a rich family? don't know. otherwise the likes of denis, alena or rafinha had more chances when we had a more mature team than this one. theoretically all the young guys should be getting minutes in our...

some on here are starting to clutch at straws with this guy. calling his movement 'amazing' and pointing out his dribbling output vs elche. i understand we have to be patient and look for positives with ferran, but let's not fall into overrating some of the things he does well.

Not talking about not making top 4 as we'll clearly do. But remains to be seen how we do as 2nd place is not a given as you make it out to be.

This tbf. Would wager he would have done better in the EPL as less physical. Most teams in Ligue 1 are playing like in the EPL 20 years ago in therms of physicality.

Liga is less physical and an environment he knows all too well. JamDav with some poor comparisons.

Closer to 4th than 2nd right now. I think those 3 games after the Galatasaray return leg will be decisive on where we finish - A Real + H Sevilla + A Levante.

Put Norwich vs Bordeaux and you wouldn't bet your house against the French winning. Or St Ettiene vs Leeds. Or Watford vs Lorient. At the bottom the difference is not there, if any.

They don't buy it man. That's their agenda since years ago even if some are not even CR fans. But makes for a great story to put them at the same level, when in fact they never where.

I'm not trying to make out as if Ligue 1 is better. Just saying that there is no excuse for him to be very poor, even a burden for his team against some sides that are not much better than some French ones. Simple logic for a simple brain. CR plays as lone striker for United and Messi plays...

Dross that supply lots of players to small and medium teams in the EPL. And somehow those players coming from dross teams in France do very well in the mighty EPL. CR not being able to do shit against Leeds or Brentford is no testament to the league quality. Even more so when he literally...

Yeah, forgot about the likes of Leeds, Watford, or Burnley. Those sides may have better players and higher wages, but they don't play better than most teams in France when it comes to defending, pressing or tackling.

Playing against Brentford is not different to playing against any side in France. I'm not talking about the top 6 here. So yeah, can spin it both ways.

Another shit take as to make out Messi is shit because CR is shit. All the while CR barely influences games these days. No goals, no assists, no pressing, shit passing etc. But whatever makes the haters sleep well at night I guess.

OG still foaming at the mouth because his boy CR warms the bench at a club that can't even get top 4. What a deranged individual. :lol:

As long as we win or someone else brings in the goals people will be easy on him. Otherwise he will be criticized and rightly so.

And that's the kind of performance that clearly shows he isn't world class yet. He'll get there eventually but let's be reasonable.

Different level my ass. Never had a shot at an angle. We were shooting at him all game. Probably best one was that from Adama when he had to get down quickly. Otherwise nothing impressive but I guess it goes hand in hand with shiting mindlessly on Stegen.

At what? Genuinely liked his contribution when coming on late in the game

At least he is good at something. Wonderful penalty
