La Liga's official coverage has had statistic about distance covered for each player for years. It used to be shown after games when highlights were shown and stats. I think I recall such data from as far as 10+ years ago. My memory might be playing with me but in any case the "distance covered...

Can someone please tell me how it is possible that our utterly useless board and Valverde have allowed for such an absurd overbooking in the midfield to occur? Do our board members and Valverde not talk with our players? De Jong was signed in January. How hard can it be to sit down with the...

Decided to quickly translate all the quotes of his from Sport's front page for today/tomorrow. "This is my home and I don't want to leave, but I want to win". "I would have loved for Neymar to have come. To be honest, I do not know if Barça did everything possible for him to return but it is...

Messi2140 answered your question. BTW as a curiosity that feature has been adopted (during games even) by La Liga's official coverage of all La Liga games. Pretty cool for those of us who like the tactical aspect of the game.

November being the month where he will be back to what resembles optimal form. For starters have in mind that we don't really know when he will be back and that Messi has had no pre-season at all. So he will need to be declared fit and gain momentum and become match-fit before we can talk about...

Won 0-2 against Juve away from home. One foot in the Round of 16 in other words. The CL system is a bit different in the women's version as can be seen below. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019–20_UEFA_Women%27s_Champions_League Full match: 7kYyAxMPyps

Won the fifth (obviously an all-time record) IHF Super Globe (the equivalent of the FIFA Club World Cup in football) against Kiel in Saudi Arabia. The Supercopa ASOBAL as well as expected. We are 99.99% going to win the league, Copa del Rey and COPA ASOBAL as well. So once again the CL will...

Just confirms what most of us already knew, namely that the financial state of the club is really, really strong. One of the few things that this otherwise useless board has not destroyed after touching it. In any case it would take a special kind of retard to destroy one of the most successful...

We definitely should but Valencia has been one of our main bogey teams at the Camp Nou in recent seasons. A manager being fired shortly before a game can have very different consequences. Either teams tend to collapse or the players tend to unite and fight even harder in order to impress the new...

Incredibly sad indeed. Especially us letting Bernardo Silva go pisses me off to this day. He was basically the next D. Silva. The one that got away from Pep (in his own words). Much like D. Silva, I cannot think of many players who would be better fits for us than Bernardo Silva. Obviously if...

One can only laugh at such a cringeworthy post. You put forward a lot of nonsense claims that nobody uttered in this thread later to "pick those claims that you invented apart" by bombastic claims boiled down to RM's teams between 2014-2018 being scrubs (lol) and C. Ronaldo doing all the work...

As I wrote earlier in post 982, I think that the likely/possible relapse that Messi suffered from before the Osasuna game, occurred (mainly) due to his non-existent pre-season. A pre-season is a crucial thing. Even more so for players Messi's age that are coming off a very long season and tiring...

Hence why I wrote that there should be different GOAT categories depending on individual talent, impact, success (number of titles won and personal records) as well as position on the pitch. For instance how are you going to compare the legacy of players like Maldini, Baresi etc. with the likes...

When he first appeared on the scene in Spain (roughly 2 years ago) and had those amazing first weeks/months, I thought for a while that he could turn into something special. After a somewhat underwhelming second season for Valencia, I am much less convinced. The question the sporting direction...

He lacks a final product. He is approaching 23 years of age and has just 14 goals in 76 games to his name while being one of the most prolific offensive outlets at Valencia. Granted, Marcelino is not exactly an offensive-minded manager but his stats for Portugal are not overly impressive either...

If you had bothered to quote the entire post and took a look at what I was replying to, I was replying to not only the "GOAT discussion" but likewise the claim of C. Ronaldo being a top 3 player of all-time. This might be shocking for you, but people have their own GOATS in each generation...

Using the logic of some users here, Gerd Müller must be one of the GOAT contenders. 68 goals for West Germany in 62 games. 1 World Cup and 1 European Championship. 14 World Cup goals in 13 World Cup games. Only behind Ronaldo (15 goals in 19 games) and Klose (16 goals in 24 games). 1970 World...

Huge upset although France are no pushovers. IMO, France are slight favorites. Argentina-France in the first semifinal and Spain-Australia in the other. Australia will not be a walkover at all. Could see us going out against them. They have all their best players available except for Ben...

I do miss Súper Dépor. They were part of my earliest football memories when I started watching football as a small kid who did not yet fully understand all the nuisances of the game. What a story that was for Spanish football as well. A modest team with no remarkable results in their history...

Valencia has been sabotaging themselves in the past 10+ years. The reason why Atlético de Madrid were able to take their position. It is not more than 15-20 years ago that Valencia was actually a better and more successful (at least league wise) version of Atlético de Madrid. Reaching 2...
