As Khaled says, 20m is just a number put out there by his team most likely. He would never find this in Europe, 12m-15m is a very good estimation for his best case scenario. Also correct to say he is being underrated. A lot of people calling him average, but the reality is the...

Birdy always gets bullied here for his takes, but the reality is he took a mega W here, and he has a unique perspective worth listening to on certain things. I respect his view on tactics specifically a lot and I think his opinion on tactical matters is one of the best here. Everyone has their...

Massive Birdy W, hope people let him claim it, guy has better insight than people admit :)

Commensurate to the quality of the respective Barca teams... we have Raphinha, Lewa and Yamal, and that one had Messi, Suarez and Neymar.

You make a good point. Things change constantly in football, and maybe we drop this tactic later and then there's a place for him.

I don't think he is going to have a future here for much longer, which is something I could never had even imagined saying last season. Our defensive tactic and particularly the offside trap/high line requires very precise coordination and I don't think he's capable of it over the much more...

It had always been the other way around. Bayern stint was the truth, and his Germany stint was an anomaly. It's clear he is the guy he was at Bayern, and we got very lucky that he was available. His short managerial career so far could go on to be extremely illustrious and we are witnessing...

I actually heard this some months before, there was a famous case of Robert Helenius (maybe @Porque will remember as he likes boxing) Helenius was a decent heavyweight boxer who said the exact same thing as you did, that doping in Nordic countries is shameful and really disgraceful to athletes...

So I will make a deal with you, you said different era means my example is not valid. I'll give you fifty current athletes from major sports who were caught doping (they all have to be first division or world level). If I can't come up with the list I delete my account, if you are wrong you...

The best cyclist of all time risked his career on that. Debunked in one sentence.

I am not saying for sure that there is something suspicious about it, but the thing that makes me ponder it is the fact that his best attribute is his endless running and incredible stamina and speed.

This is Gyokeres : From what this graph is saying, this guy literally suddenly became one of the best strikers in the world in the space of a year.

Quite rudimentary way of analysis, but I will show their market value graphs as a rough estimate of their improvement : Sorloth : Seems quite normal, some ups and downs, peaks and troughs, and eventually gradual increase :

I am a regular watcher of the Championship and I saw this player play many times for Swansea and Coventry. He was alright but nothing special. He also was contracted with Brighton (before they became a top half team) and never managed to make a single Premier League appearance for them. For...

:oops::oops::oops:

Ruins the fun for fans, quite unprofessional from Madrid and Vini, at least maintain the pretense if you already know the winner so the fans can enjoy the ceremony.

Tbf Xavi's signings here were much better than Ten Hag's signings at United. However, the question is, how much of United's transfer business issues are because of the wrong targets, or a lack of pull? Here, Xavi brought Raphinha, Lewa, Kounde, Gundogan etc, but at United, I really doubt they...

Maybe not so weird? Even 37 year old Messi will instantly elevate their team massively. I guess the only problem is that he might unnecessarily hurt his legacy if he goes there and happens to have a bad season with United, he might not have the desire to play top level football anymore. Where...

It will be interesting to see what he will do with players who really do not fit his preferred style of football, if it happens. With the type of positional play football he likes, he will be trying to teach that to a squad full of players who spent the last 4 years playing counter hoof ball...

He was key when he came on against Madrid and I think he will play a very important part in Flick's team. I doubt either him or the club will want an exit by the end of this season. In particular he is a very good athlete with great ballcarrying skills, and the vertical scheme will suit him...
