Funny, I ended up accidentally on the first page of this thread from 2016

When a certain JamDav was trying to argue that VVD is not something special.

How well did that age, huh?

All his takes tend to age like shit, lol.

That's why I always say, time will prove you wrong as always.

What has Van Dijk shown? What relevance do Stones and Laporte have to Van Dijk?

Tell me what you think Van Dijk brings to be good enough for Barca.

Not even sure why you mentioned Pique.
:facepalm:

Relevance is Stones or Laporte are on Barca wish list.

I mentioned Pique (when signed) because it was you who introduced random metric (as per usual) "show in their careers"




Loooool guys this is epic, the fight has already started in 2016 🤣🔥

Aye got it wrong early on Van Dijk in EPL due to how he played in Scotland.. in retrospect it was too easy for him and his mistakes in Europe etc were due to not being challenged enough.

Was same reason big clubs didnt move for him initially.

Best ever EPL defender no doubt.

Like your take Yamal 'looks shite'.

'Cubarsi not good enough and Faye is better'

'Be La Masia midfielder through soon that is better than Pedri'

'Fati will be back this season' etc.

'Gundogan has to stay he is the bestest player in the team and legs are fine'

'Romeu will be a good siging. The DM everyone has been moaning about asking for'

'Kessie is Barcas best midfielder as he won Serie A'

Start going on about Diaz at Liverpool AFTER he signs and have such little clue claim he is a RW etc.

Top stuff.

He truly has the eye for the great player :lol:
the whole first pages are gold

Jammy simply saves face by the fact that most of us don't have time/patience to go through old pages of threads one by one to expose his shit

Calma.. you argued for years about likes of Dest, Arthur, Braithwaite and Puig.

You take Capology as a 'source' etc.

Was def swayed by VVD for how he looked in Scotland more so than just looking at how well was doing in first season at Southampton at that point. Great shout Bojan.

Good diplomatic statement to save face now.

But posts stay forever and they will always be coming back to haunt you

Haha no need to save face.. literally said got it wrong and was too impacted by how he looked at Celtic than how was doing at Soton in first few months.

Posts stay forever indeed...

Same reason top clubs didnt move for him then did once proved himself in EPL and actually improved.

Posts on Dest being World Class and arguing for duds like Braithwaite and Arthur 'be there to haunt you' as are discussions when make a twat of yourself trying to use Capology.

Who can forget Birdy claims of 'Puig is better than Busi' and 'Braithwaite brings more than Messi'.

Happens to us all chief.

You did chief.. argued at length how Braithwaite was better finisher and offered more than Messi and claimed Puig better than Busi etc.

Also who can forget the biggest self cuntery of all Barcaforum and your endless posts about how past it Messi cant win the World Cup.

Will always haunt you that one.

Nothing will ever come close to 'being found out' more than..

Braithwaite better finisher than Messi
Puig better than Busi
Messi has no chance at 2022 WC.

I can live with an opinion on VVD a few months after moved from Scotland being wrong quite easily... I have actually discussed VVD and why big clubs passed on him back then with those who are among the very very top analytical minds in EPL

Was interesting conversation.

Very quiet on Capology these days since you made a cunt of yourself with the 'Frenkie salary is 27m' nonsense.

You are not even strawmaning now, you are straight-out lying....

- I never claimed that 'Braithwaite is better finisher than Messi' .
The argument was Braithwate had better xG + xA per 90min at some point in 20/21 season compared to Griezmann Coutinho and a few others. And the argument was to show how poor Griezman was, rather than how good Braithwate was

- I never wrote that 'Puig is better than Busi' or actually anything positive about Puig in here.
That one you pulled out of your arse, like many other claims

- About Messi: my criticism of him is known about his last years here.
Nothing more nothing less.

- Capology is an accurate source on contracts. They have over 90% of their info correct, and they update it when they get it wrong.

You are so butthurt that your idol is the 2nd highest earner in the squad behind Lewa.
Swallow it and move on

PS: Yes, keep being a cunt.
You will always be the one who thought in 2017 that Laporte and Stones are better than VVD.
This can't be surpassed
Take you huge L and STFU moron
