Or Vinicius - Haaland swap?

Much worse team compared to what? Current LL teams are worse than back then and we had Tata Martino as manager. It's not about being a fan or loving a player. Neymar was the closest thing to Messi as far as talent goes. Fucking up his career because of bad decisions and injuries is a different...

Mbappe's preferred position won't change. Same with Vinicius. How does a new manager fix that?

Real needed a target man but got a player similar to Vinicius. They'll have to take a big decision for next season.

Tru! Lacks the bronca. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2008/jun/19/barcelona.brazil Most of all, however, he had bronca, the word used repeatedly in Diego Maradona's autobiography to refer to "anger, fury, hatred, resentment, bitter discontent ... [it was] his motivator, his fuel, his...

1. League quality and tbf overall football level across Europe was better back then. 2. Neymar had to adapt to a new country/league While comparisons are easy to make, I still feel Yamal is not yet a Neymar/Messi type player. Those two where carrying their respective teams and were the...

You just know this guy would have thrown a tantrum on the pitch directed at his teammates, if he didn't miss that pen but they still lost. Now he acts the philosopher on Instagram. :lol:

Carvajal being in contention is madness. I think football is on a downward trajectory and will never recover.

Going strictly by numbers Mbappe, Kane and Haaland dwarf him. A mediocre season for a forward, with some abysmal displays at NT level.

Well at least Rodri was clearly the best midfielder in the world over the past year. Clownicius will never win it.

Savinho still can't believe it :lol:

Is that bum Receba still a thing?

Rassvet spitting facts. What is the world coming to?

Bellend robbed Vinicius of a Ballon?

Who cares? Madrid meltdown in full swing? Great!

Bellend at third doesn't feel right.

I'd say peak form has been already reached. Smashing both Bayern and Real can be toppled only by smashing City and Liverpool I guess. From here on I would expect an evolution, considering that we have starters returning. A refinement of the style, with different elements being implemented. But...

Well, at some point the two philosophies will have to merge. I remember everyone was screaming for more control in first half vs Madrid. And we got that with FDJ being brought in. There will be times when you want to control games instead of doing boxing matches, trading blows with the other...

Pipe down, you dribbling parakeet. It's a fair question to ask. Game dynamics in a high stakes game like that can be heavily influenced by chances taken at the right time. We took them at 100% vs Bayern and managed to not concede in first half vs Madrid. Is Barca suddenly some God like team that...

We also had the luck on our side I must say that I find it mighty impressive how our attack converted against Bayern and Real. We got a goal for nearly every shot on target, while the adversaries were missing left and right. Once we get them in they crumble, but will all opponents miss like...
