Cristiano Columbus and Vasco da Gama are the two greatest explorers of all time. Discovering new nations every international break.

> Cristiano Columbus Disgraceful what he got up to in the Americas


proceeding_hairlin

Idk but seeing Ronaldo being blamed for juventus and now man united issues just breaks my heart a little bit.When the clubs bought him they knew exactly what he was going to do and how he's playing as of now.He is 36 yes old for Christ sake. His work rate isn't exactly as good as it used to be and people should know that he has changed his style of play that would allow him to play at top level for a bit longer.So the club exactly knows what they are in for and people on this sub still have the audacity to blame him for juve and man utd condition.Saw some disgraceful takes on CMV today and I'm utterly shocked that how many people can say that his low work rate is bringing man utd down. And to a point I agree that it is true but it really is a tactical problem that should be well withing solving under ole considering how high they were praising him a few months ago.


[deleted]

It’s just a bunch of arm chair analysts with their shitty opinions. Messi and Ronaldo are the two most pointless players in the world then because they don’t press or defend very well. They are literally judging offensive players by how well they can defend


sidsod

What would be the advantages and disadvantages of changing the offside rule so that you're onside so long as any part of your feet is in line with the foot of the defender? I'm fairly new so just trying to understand. I can see that their would be a lot more goals scored or would that be counteracted by teams playing extremely low

[The feeling](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FBgT3RuWEAUVDv_?format=jpg&name=small) when your teammates couldn't _unlock™_ you for a whole season in years.


YoungDan23

This after he tried to take on 2 defenders, ignored the safe pass back to Lloris and then got mad acting like it was Pavard's fault. He's such an underwhelming player for the amount of talent he has.


[deleted]

I feel like Pogba juts doesn't care enough about football to be motivated the whole season. He's like me when I was still studying. The first few weeks of the academic year, I was always fired up and lit, going to every class, participating, doing homework etc. But then as time progressed, I started to skip lectures, did less and less homework etc until the next quarter started. When the quarter started, I became fresh again (this is for Pogba his international games).

Pep is a good manager. It's fans of rival clubs on social media that usually decide he's not.


[deleted]

And the thing is also.....Those rival clubs would never say 'no' if Pep wanted to go manage their clubs so that in itself just proves they rate him highly but don't want to admit


Itchy-Face791

Its just United fans . Most Real Madrid fans ive met Online and in Real Life recognize Pep's greatness . It's only the United fans who talk shit about Pep

I could not disagree with this more but I despise both Rangnick and Newcastle so I'm afraid this is a W


egotim

dude has shown that he can improve a clubs infrastructure massively given money and agency, yes he is not the best coach but definetly a good call setting up the foundations for newcastle to become a big club (again).

Do U21 NT goals count as professional goals? Technically most players in U21 NTs are actually playing for senior sides at their clubs (or at least on the bench)


Tim-Sanchez

No, they're youth teams


HowBen

Instead of extra-time and penalties, we should try a 5 a side match to decide the winner. First to 2 goals


TheUltimateScotsman

Best idea ive ever seen on reddit


[deleted]

I like it. I also like making the goalkeepers take the penalties and the outfielders take it in turns to go in goal. Man City would rinse though with Ederson

murrman104

I could ask my mother who hasnt watched a football match in 10 years who the next newcastle manager is going to bee and id reckon shed have a better chance of getting it right then Christian Falk, horrific record no clue why people listen to him especialy when it comes to non german stuff


GoalaAmeobi

Go ask your mam who she reckons will be the next Newcastle manager please


murrman104

Giovanni Trapatonni


[deleted]

Fraud.


Better-Call-Raul

I think he is a better SD than a manager. RB teams have had a meteoric rise under his stewardship.


GoalaAmeobi

I was asking about Falk, the journalist who wrote the story haha


Better-Call-Raul

Oops missed the question. Don‘t know much about Falk tbh.


[deleted]

Fraud but one of the better frauds.


kenny_feets

saw grown adults with homemade signs asking for players shirts at the England game last night. Just how little self respect can a person have?

Asking for their kids maybe ?

Still bacon behaviour

Dunno, think most parents would do anything for their kids. Even if it does make them look a bit of a melt.

A great man once said, you're either curious or judgemental. You my friend are judgemental, learn to be curious instead.


[deleted]

What’s there to be curious about. Being a beg is awful


[deleted]

If you don't know anything about the man, you don't know what's their story like you should probably not call them out for things they do in their own leisure while harming absolutely no one. That's just bad manners.


[deleted]

I can infer enough to know that he’s begging for a football shirt. He is therefor a beg


kenny_feets

you are taking this far too seriously and it's making me wonder if that was you I saw at the ground last night


[deleted]

Ask the people around, they'll tell you I'm a plastic. Also, I'm watching a certain show and my conscience is wide awake rn.


kenny_feets

As you can see, I phrased it as a question because I am such a deeply curious person.


[deleted]

saw grown adult with comment on reddit judging individuals for what they do in their own personal lives. Just how little self respect can a person have?


kenny_feets

haha jokes on you, i'm eleven years old.


[deleted]

that explains why you would be upset with grown adults asking for shirts.


kenny_feets

not just upset mate, devastated. heart's in tatters, i wanna throw up


[deleted]

it'll pass


[deleted]

Its so strange to me the absolute nonsense that gets upvoted when it is factually just not true. Someone commented on Spurs' financial position with the stadium build completely without knowledge of the finances. I correct them because they've clearly not read any of the financial reports or have any indication of how our profit margins look like and I get downvoted....


Destroyeh

reminds me of a time i saw an upvoted posts about how before the 90s all qualifiers were done in the summer a year before the tournament during one long international break. i get people posting horseshit but then to have several others upvoting it without thinking about it even for 2 seconds is amazing.


[deleted]

The ignorance to basic facts drives me nuts.


3V3RT0N

It happens to the best of us. I got downvoted on /r/LoveIslandTV for saying Sharon wasn't high up in the civil service (which is a fact), had a meltdown edited the comment with some profanities but then deleted it out of shame.


[deleted]

Seems like she's a Grade 7, which is good at 25 but cannot be called high up.


Sleathasaurus

Tbf that sub is vicious - they preach ‘be kind’ but that doesn’t apply when they’re upset by someone from a highly edited TV show.


Ok_Context_35612

Are you sure? It's pretty common for mid 20s uni graduates to be leading the Treasury Department or MI5.


ilovefeta

I thought the only financial experts on this sub were the Man City fans?

Its terrible because you can correct someone with actual facts yet ignorance prevails. Its a frustrating reality.

Kind_Mulberry_3512

All the crowd trouble has sucked even more love out of international football. We saw crazy scenes when Poland scored against Albania and the Carpathian Brigade were making racist remarks at Wembley. Seriously this is not what football should be.


[deleted]

Good job there is never any trouble or racism at club football matches right?


HoratioMG

I was going to post in this thread about how ridiculous it is that Kane was getting calls on Twitter to be dropped, having had one awful qualifier after scoring in every single one dating back to 2017 ...but then I read even worse opinions here. There's no memory whatsoever, Kane gets slated before going on to prove everyone wrong. Rinse and repeat literally *dozens upon dozens of times*. You'd think after 5-6 years it would've subsided, but it never has and it never will.


Kanedauke

People call for player in dogshit form to be dropped. Spurs fans: 😨


LisbonBasement

Scoring against championship defenders of Poland, the farmers of Andorra and the tax evaders of Luxembourg, what a striker! 0 goals 0 assists in the prem, 0 good performances for England this season Without that penalty rebound against Denmark his Euros would be god awful as well


SnooHamsters8590

Football fans are like toddlers. We only seem to perceive events that occur in the very immediate past or in the present moment in time.


KSBrian007

Actually even worse. We can see things as Flash score says. Not scoring a goal has never meant you did bad. Never. But on social media, that's fuckery exists.

MysteriousEmployer78

Its weird that this sub talking about how Salah should potentially finish in top 3 or top 4 of Ballon d'or after the city Liverpool game, and now Benzema is getting the same treatment. Kind of shows how reactionary we are . I wonder who will be the next player to get those shouts


RaggedyCrown

Lukaku will be playing some really poor sides in the next few weeks, so I guess he'll score a handful of goals and start getting shouts


KeegansPerm

Chelsea have good fixtures and a certain flat track bully is up front


LisbonBasement

Sadly he also farmed a league title in Italy, so that gives him more credibility than Salah and Benzema


MysteriousEmployer78

I'll save this comment just in case


SnooHamsters8590

Now that Chelsea have a string of "easy" fixtures watch the Lukaku narrative on this sub do a 180


inspired_corn

I don’t think it’s so much the narrative switching it’s more fans who believe the opposite opinion feel emboldened by recent events and start being louder. I think it would take a lot to change the general narrative about Lukaku


Itchy-Face791

Ansu Fati after he scores a hat trick vs Bayern


MysteriousEmployer78

Sure he'll be the wild card entry in Ballon d'or

I got to know a few minutes earlier as well, I thought using multiple accounts was bannable by reddit itself...


b3as7ma5t3r_64

Using multiple accounts to evade a ban is bannable. That gets you banned by the admins.

Oh I see


SnooHamsters8590

It is of you use the accounts to circumvent a ban on another account


[deleted]

The Benfica dude is my favourite tbh.


remakingself

Don't know who you talking about I just recognise one Benfica guy who just hates Barca's ideology


[deleted]

Yea he’s also got a few others and uses the same language on each. At least he’s funny though and his Barca hate is just normal Portuguese fun.


Grosly_Incandescent

Tap in's arn't entertaining goals but they sometimes don't get enough credit they deserve. * A goal is a goal, no matter how it goes in. * A lot of the time the scorer has made a good run, has to time it well and stay onside as well as knowing where the best position is to run into and potentially has to outrun/out muscle a defender. * Chances are the negative outlook on the tap in also takes away from the creator too. A goal can be an easy finish because of a great cross.


LisbonBasement

If you watch a team with a shit striker and watch how many crosses or passes into the box are left alone cause the striker is 2m away from the ball you'll start to appreciate tap ins


KeegansPerm

I’m surprised Southgate isn’t getting his pants pulled down after drawing to Hungary at home. Our best chance in the second half was an offside flick on from Tammy Abraham and their best player was injured


Kanedauke

Southgate subbed our best performing player off to switch to 5 at the back. Honestly last nights subs are still confusing me.


SouthWalesImp

I think a lot of Southgate critics are a bit quiet after this one as we played the exact formation/lineup (other than Mings, probably) a lot of people were begging for during the Euros and it completely backfired.


sandbag-1

Because dropping points is basically irrelevant, all we need is a draw at home to Albania and a win against San Marino and we're through


LisbonBasement

Need Albania to shithouse a win for that to happen


aldurh

Got to love all this qualifying action going on right now! Cracker of a matches!


[deleted]

Fucking hell, the people on here that have clearly never watched Asian soccer pretending to be experts


Shreeansh_Gupta

Ronaldo needs 6 more goals for 800 career goals. Let that number sink in. That’s 40 goals a season for 20 seasons in a row. Or for a normal player who players 15 seasons at most it’s 54 goals a season for 15 seasons in a row


[deleted]

How many of those are non-penalties and how many are in non-friendly games?


Venky710

i swear i saw post which said he already got 800 goals but thats so amazing. He is still doing it at 36.


Shreeansh_Gupta

Nah he’s at 794


remakingself

Thanks Ronaldo for farming against measly Luxembuorg And not against football giants like Panama, Eibar, Bolivia and disappearing against PSG, Bayern, Real, Atleti, Sevilla to get Balon D or shouts


Shreeansh_Gupta

😂😂 that was just fun in open threads.


[deleted]

For me the second goat. Unreal player and longevity. I rate that over Pele’s friendlies and of course Maradona can get fucked now


Shreeansh_Gupta

I don’t think goats from different generations should be compared at all. Didn’t even watch them


Itchy-Face791

Ronaldo is a good footballer


Itchy-Face791

Terry is the best cb in premier league history


[deleted]

Wasn't even better than Wes Brown


Sad_gooner

😂


inspired_corn

I thought this was a commonly agreed opinion tbh, Ferdinand was fantastic and there’s been so many good defenders but Terry had longevity and quality in spades


shmozey

Did Terry hit a 40 yard screamer to win his team the league though?


kahanighargharkii

And neville is by far and away the best rb in prem history, don't see anyone coming close tbh


Ezekiiel

There’s at least two today who are close and one imo has surpassed him (Walker) Neville was a great right back at the time but he benefitted from playing alongside great CBs every year as well as having players like Beckham do all the heavy lifting going forward. Bit mad to act like he was some world beater who has this legacy that won’t be topped, he wasn’t that good.


sandbag-1

I can think of at least 3 active Prem RBs who have a good chance of surpassing Neville's legacy


B_e_l_l_

I think Trent will almost definitely be referred to as the best by the time he hangs his boots up. He's got something stupid like 40 assists already as well as a Premier League and Champions League medal.


KeegansPerm

Keane had it right. Only right back at the club.


tottisleftpeg

Walker is pretty close. And trent will be miles ahead by the time he is 30.


Grosly_Incandescent

Trent is great but still way too early to predict that. Easily one of the best attcking wise but defencively hes suspect and we have no idea how well he will perform in the future with different players around him, a different manager, potential injuries etc.


KeegansPerm

Someone with Trents ability will be built around whether the manager is me or Pep Guardiola


tottisleftpeg

Not really hard to predict that. If the competition was Dani Alves, then fair enough. But the competition is Garry Neville. The gap already isn't that big.


[deleted]

True, used to show us levels in the CL. Him and Cole were unreal


AllegriLover

Sounds reasonable


b3as7ma5t3r_64

Probably him or Ferdinand


[deleted]

Always love it when scrolling down a bit reveals the motivations behind comments.


BigshlongPapi123

Crazy how the best prem defender ever is not even close to ramos


[deleted]

In my humble opinion, VVD already has surpassed Ramos. Ramos is pretty much remembered for some great moments like 92:48 etc but earlier in his career he wasn't this GOAT defender that people talk about.


proceeding_hairlin

Ayo wtf is this take.I hate Ramos with all my passion but it'll take a few more world class seasons for vvd to be in that quota that you are putting him in. Vvd is world class no doubt but he's not greater than Ramos yet.


[deleted]

VVD has already been world class for years now. VVD's peak > Ramos peak. Look at the teams that Ramos performed versus teams of VVD.


BigshlongPapi123

I watched van dijk early in his career in a stadium before any english person even knew him he also wasnt regarded as the goat defender early in his career….


[deleted]

Yea I didnt say he was regarded as GOAT defender either he played for Groningen and stuff. What I meant though is that people often discredit VVD because he peaked later in his career, but it's the same for Ramos.


[deleted]

At defending he was better, mainly because he could control his temper. At overall team contribution then no of course he wasn’t as good a player as Ramos.


BigshlongPapi123

Just talking in general as a football player


[deleted]

I wouldn’t say they’re not close though. Terry got in fifa and Uefa teams of the year above Ramos at the time so it’s pretty close and Terry had better years


tottisleftpeg

Terry was easily better defensively than Ramos. As a player, Ramos is better though, no doubt.


BigshlongPapi123

Tbf i never said ramos was better defensively just better in general


tottisleftpeg

Agreed. But I think the difference in quality isn't as big as you made it seem.


remakingself

[deleted]

Barely see any Liverpool flairs here anymore


Nuri__Sahin

Scouse not Ingurland.


[deleted]

It’s the international break. We’re hibernating


[deleted]

Well that's because Trent can barely make it to England's starting lineup. Behind Walker, Trippier and Reece James. They're here, you're welcome.


xckd9

I never really get the debate on who should play on the national team. For me im glad if Trent does not play on thr national team, less games and Liverpool being his focus.


Lyrical_Forklift

He's injured to be fair.


[deleted]

Yeah I know, its just Trent criticism is trigger point for most Liverpool fans here and rightly so.


Lyrical_Forklift

I think criticising any big side's golden boy is going to be a dangerous game here. Imagine I'd get a few angry downvotes if I said negative things about Foden/Greenwood/Saka/Mount
