Gareth Bale remains one of the biggest enigmas in the history of football. In some ways, he had it all. Pace, power, heading, freekicks, long-distance-shooting, passing, crossing, even dribbling... he could do it all. I would say that talent-wise, he was on bar with Cristiano Ronaldo. He could...

He has been completely washed-up for so long now.... Yet Lewy and Benz are still flying high. Messi too. His knee injury did him in? I dont think Luis is in any way a heavy drinker/partier. Even when people were saying he is far, he really wasnt. He has always been bulky and endomorphic...

They still need a striker. Choupo-Mouting has played well but he is not a striker of Bayerns calibre. They should sign that fella who scored that goal against Spain.

I apologize. That was uncalled for. For anyone who was offended by my remarks, I apologize.

Instead of talent/technical ability? Yes.

KingLeo is right as usual. Lewy is one of the best strikers of his generation but many people do overrate him. For me, the best strikers of the past 10-15 years are: 1. Luis Suarez 2. Karim Benzema 3. Robert Lewandowski 4. Edinson Cavani 5. Gonzalo Higuain 6. Sergio Aguero 7. Radamel Falcao 8...

Which version of Ronaldo was the best? For me, it was something like 2009-2013 during the Mourinho vs Guardiola battles. Ironically, Ronaldo (and Real) started to achieve that now-famous CL-domination when Ronaldo was already declining. Until about 2014 he was still technically a winger with so...

An excellent point about CR and yes, Lewy seemed to have thought about that as well. If you look at all those CLs that Madrid won, CR was rarely the culprit.

Exactly. Bayern fans always knew this. Scores week-in, week-out in Bundesliga against cannon fodder opposition. In the CL knock-out stages against half-decent (doesnt even have to be Real or Barca caliber) sides he chokes. Scores the odd penalty or consolation goal but nothing decisive. Is 100%...

When Mbappe eventually retires, his legacy will be bigger than Ronaldos.

Should have gone to Real Madrid straight after that Monaco season or at least last summer. There he would be just a player amongst others. Not above their club or their fans. With their mentality and coaching, he would be even better now. More disciplined.

Just imagine in 2014... he was just 23 and had won one Champions League, a World Cup Bronze medal + the 2014 World Cup. He had 10 goals at World cup at 23. Now, more than eight years and two World Cups later.... he has achieved one more Champions League and nothing at those two World Cups. He...

Fuck longevity. Luca Toni won the Serie A golden boot at 38. So did Quadriwhatshisname. CR is a top-20 of all-time, maybe top-10 but no more. R9 miles ahead, kid.

Headers and freekicks aside, he is far more complete than CR ever was.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-11554809/Forget-emotions-Lionel-Messi-isnt-Greatest-Time-hes-Pele-Maradona.html Still 3rd on the list, according to this fella. And CR as 9th, with no R9 or Zizou at top 10. Thoughts? Just provocative hack trying to be controversial?

Does the team travel to Argentina now and celebrate with the fans?

The second best winger of the last 15 years. Better than Bale but not quite as good as Robben.

The greatest of all time. No doubts. Of course, would have been way before this World Cup. Ever since 2015 or so, Messi has been the best ever. But this is his crown jewel. Messi, Maradona, Pele, R9, Zidane. In that order.

Mbappe is only good after 70 minutes against tired opposition. Against fresh, mobile legs he isnt that great.
