Yeah Williams has played well and scored a gorgeous goal against Georgia, but it's always risky to base buying players on international tournaments. How's he getting on at Athletic, has he been good there? That would be more of an indicator of his level and consistency. Like I say not watched La Liga in one or two years.

In Romania they hype up Yamal like crazy. Must be some latin thing. Like a predisposition to make a wedding out of any success and a funeral from every bad moment. We even have a famous proverb about that.

Yes. Lost all respect for afellay after he called Nico player of the tournament so far.

I think in general NL “pundits” have stopped watching la liga. That’s how it seems. Van Basten situation few weeks ago was funny. He was outed for giving contradictory statements about players and then admitted he hasn’t watch NL play and said at times you just have to “bluff your way through”

Easiest money to make these days.

Reminds me of some users in this forum tbh.

Easy to spot who are the ones who don't watch matches and rely on stats, highlights and tweets.

That's true - pundits rarely do their research in most countries.

I find that some journalists are better pundits than actual pundits. Guys like James Horncastle, Raphael Honigstein. Maybe it's a superior grasp of language and less bias towards and against players due to club or national team allegiances.

You can't watch that many matches tbh. Especially if you like other sports. Was a great F1 race recently, Wimbledon started... time is limited.
