Yeah, it's the Chernobyl syndrome actually. The "workers" know there's a big problem and they will eventually die. The fans are given a stupid explanation why they have to watch the situation with closed eyes and be happy while being infected. The boss only cares for himself, his money and his...

If I am a fanboy than how about the hordes of avid haters here? Do they represent the minimal objectivity that should be required to write down those heavily worded half-sentences in order to express their well established opinion, which similar like to the hopper who under the compulsion always...

Awful like usual??? Did you watch the game or you were just slowly looking up these four words in a dictionary - regardless what happens on the pitch?

What an absolutely and anciently outdated garbage is that? Do you think X player will more successfully dribble is he is scared of the coach??? Do you think Y player will more successfully aim a long-ball is he is scared of the coach??? Do you think Z player will more successfully finish is he...

Athleticism - specially in football - can be achieved by zealous hard-work. Talent is a gift, specially on Messi's level. Comparing these 'artists' with the body-builders is not favorable for the game itself. Just as you cannot compare Bobby Fischer to 'Deep Blue' - which is a machine, a...

That is close to an amoeba actually, but could be worse.

This is the maximum unpredictability that Valverde is capable of. And people asking why does the team play as they play? It is Valverde and ONLY him.

Indeed looked and sounded like that. What is incredible that SPORT came out with an article that bashes Dembele (and only him) saying he was "horrible", which is far from being the truth. It seems the Castalan press is as much anti-Dembele as most users in this absolutely jesting forum.

You may laugh around as much as you are capable to, but it won't change facts. Dembele wasn't good at all, he is capable of much more, but compare his performance to the other's - apart from Messi - and you get the result that he did the most dangerous passes. It's not his fault that Roberto...

Pretty sad that very few seem to know how to objectively watch a game or even a single player. Dembele did not play well, but was the only one who gave three key-passes, 2 for Semedo and the brilliant one for Roberto, who actually should have scored from it. He clearly lost one ball -...

Lack of understanding of all, mainly visual, aspects of the game, which cannot be expressed by numbers. Although 'game-systems' can be expressed by numeric or math expressions and equations and can be modeled (to a certain extent), the most frequently quoted numbers in football do not...

Those people obsessed with numbers, related to something that is visual, thus can be also seen, are usually either autistic or they simply substitute their lack of understanding of what they actually see, with something that can be expressed numerically. They are the ones who can't really enjoy...

These are just results that could have happened under different circumstances. What is ten times more important, he completely ruined the strategically attacking game at Barca.

At least you not one of the silent haters. You're like a legendary Swiss-watch, always appearing like a time-keeper when some dastardliness has to be said about Dembele.

This is an exceptionally true sentence. Football experts and historians often say the game changes every 7 years or so, so much, that comparisons are almost meaningless. Pele only played at WCs on the international scene and 50 years ago a result of 8:6 wasn't very seldom. How could one...

Perhaps there are no de facto Messi haters here, just yet, but you won't deny that there are haters, regardless whom they actually pick, and even an average performance by Messi gives a good reason and opportunity to start an ill discussion about his "problems". Criticizing Messi would be...

Oh, great show by Messi today. Nice to see he is getting back to shape after his injury. But please also mind that this opponent was a very very weak one, who actually gave up after 2:1 Just visualize the team without Messi and the picture will not be as good as it seems.

Sorry to state but you as a balancing factor is perhaps the best joke in this place. Maybe you are not the most biased towards some footballers in the forum, but you're definitely not lower than 3rd or 2nd on the ranking-list. When you like a player, you come to the limelight and try to...

It's not EV again but it's still EV. Problems with Valverde are continuous since he stepped his foot in and will only be solved when he is out. Nitpicking on Messi, who is a seldom-born genius in the sports history, is not just stupid but it's turning against the basic logic surrounding the...

I think he does. "Midfielder" is a very broad term nowadays and there are at least 10-12 varieties of midfielders. Originally, before the 70's the midfielder was called: half-back, specially that most teams played 3-2-5 rarely 4-2-4. If you say "half-back" it means a very different thing...
