Did anyone notice the gleeful smile CR had when Leo had that awful FK at the end?

Shocking? ballon d'Or voting coming up- he's scoring more but people are talking about Messi's amazing playmaking and assisting? years gone by after Leo scores an amazing dribble, or amazing strike, or gets a hattrick, the RM game after we all used to laugh as CR would go crazy trying to out...

I don't mind players having a bad day, being sloppy, messing something up. It happens. But Ronaldo pisses me the fuck off. Every game, every fucking game, at least once- he'll mess something up, be it a pass, a trick or his most common; playing a ball without looking- and then he'll point at a...

My son leaned over me, read your comment and said "Nobodies gonna miss Tata? thats a messed up thing to say, considering...you know..." Me: "Eeeh, what?" Son: "R.I.P" :shakeshead::rolleyes::angry: Needless to say, I hit him a smack for being rude, clueless and ignorant.

I may get eyerolls or cries of 'yeah right' at what I'm about to post but whatever. I am probbaly much older than most here, and have had an entire life involved in football (from playing, to coaching)- I'm Brazilian by birth. Its in my blood I guess- and what I'm seeing right now in Spain is...

Legally? Except diving is very clearly agasint the rules of the game. If a shitty judge in a jurisdiction was repeatedly lenient on punishment for murderers, does that mean its ok to murder since you'll get away with it?

A lot of people would make hypocrites outta themselves if they don't say yes. CRs goalrate has been the number 1 factor in judging him, regardless of how he plays overall. (In other words a brace of tap ins after playing poor= performing well, no goals but plays really well over all= Ronaldo...

After all these years worrying about defence.... Think of Jeremy and whoever at CB, and Mascherano & Busquets as a double pivot in front of them when we need it. Alba at WingBack to cut in with piece should the centre need such help. For the first time in a long time... I am very comfortable...

He'll also score more with Suarez. That will be too late to influence ballon d'or but who cares. Its not like 1 good performace in 1 game will decide it, is it? :pep:

Oh and just to be clear- what I meant was that just because he's good at X (striking, heading, pace etc) doesn't mean we have to pretend or convince ourselves he's amazing at Y as well. This isnt specific to him of course, just a general point. His overall play (so imagine he wasn't a...

Yup. When I say so many of CRs goals are tap-ins- its not a complete insult. It takes a lot to do that. Firstly, the hunger and obession to score. Second, the fitness to get into those spaces. Third, the knowledge on what spaces to get into, and when (though he's less skilled at the 'when' than...

great stuff

Have always thought least penalites should be a thing too. I hate 2 penalites scored getting someone a goalscoring award over someone else tbh.

Ronaldos passing is not underrated. Jesus. Lol He's an average passer who can produce a good moment here and there. Nothing more.

Fixed that for you.

I have no idea what the cuts about; I assume it was for that 2 finger V celebration thing he does sometimes.

This this this this this. It's stupid, its unsportsmanlike, it does deserve punishment. But I want the whole world to act as they are with Suarez now, about players like Pepe and their even more vile, shocking and disgusting behavior.

I genuinely think he has issues. He looked so ashamed and upset with himself after the game, like he knew what was coming and that he'd let the team down. It's so... weird and crazy and random.

Sorry, to clarify, I meant a fuss FROM referees, governing bodies etc

If this was referring to me (I'm unsure) I'm not referring to tackles. Pepe does engage in acts of violence, such as kicking players while they're on the floor, kicking players in the ribs, heads, legs etc. It's just that he often uses tackles as a cover for what he's doing.
