  1. He’s lived off Pirlo and Juve’s rep at club level and his teammates at international level. Has a good game every 10 games or so. Makes a worldie pass every now and again. Contributions fuck. Has shit haircuts. Fergie knew he was a cunt as a teenager. Should have remained fucked off.

  2. Yeah it's mostly for "cosmetic" reasons to make them look meaner and more intimidating. I've heard reasoning that cropping ears helps avoid ear infections and docking tails similarly helps avoid painful tail injuries, but that just sounds nonsensical to me. Think it's thankfully banned mostly everywhere in the EU.

  3. Exactly, sick of hearing people say he doesn't perform like this for France. France have elite level players in every position around him, imagine knowing you have Kante running through brick walls next to you. Vidal and Pirlo next to him at Juve also, absolute incredible players. The term Luxury player was made for Pogba.

  4. Just realised Pogba is 29 years old now!… wow, was always under the impression he was like 25 at the most. Horrible club level career, absolute flop. Lucky he has that French passport, otherwise the state of affairs would be even worse.

  5. Yeah Andy Carroll was terrible, definitely makes my top 10 list of worst signings in the league. Definitely the worst LFC signing in my lifetime. Wan Bissaka's ended up a poor signing and maybe it was too early for him to make a big move after just one top flight season where he looked brilliant. Honestly, I think he's just a bit unfortunate that modern football seems to call for these really well rounded fullbacks and he's more of a "traditional" fullback that's less well rounded. I think there's a case to be made that United in recent years is not a good place for promising young players to develop & I also think there's a case to be made that he wasn't really the right sort of fullback that United needed to sign. Honestly, I think Maguire and AWB could yet salvage their United careers. I think it'd be harder for Maguire, because he'd have to accept he's not a leader and isn't fit to be captain - and I'm not sure he'd agree with that. But I don't think it's a coincidence he's looked best when paired next to Johnny Evans. But put them in a back 4 where they've got actual defensive organisation and a midfield that helps them out... I doubt they look as shit. Or go full Southgate and just have the most basic defensive tactics you can think of But I do think they'll always be viewed as players that failed to live up to initial expectations. I'm also not sure this dysfunctional United side was the best place for AWB to develop after his brilliant breakout season at Palace - maybe he made his move to a big club too early like Zaha did before him? Cos Zaha was a flop earlier on in his career, but now that he's back at Palace he's ended up kicking on pretty massively - I think if United had signed Zaha as good as he is today (or last year) he'd have ended up being considered a really good signing. But Pogba's definitely my #1 pick for absolute worst signing in the league. He's got the talent, he's just not arsed more often than not. A few world class passes every once in a while doesn't make up for the fact he's basically the opposite of what United fans were promised when it was announced he re-signed with you lot. Even though I fucking hate United, whenever I watch him play like dogshit (which tbh is 95% or more of the time I see him play) I can't help but think "I am so fucking glad he doesn't play for Liverpool" - I'd absolutely hate watching him play. And @DeadLinesmanis already angry enough already, can't be good for his heart having to watch Pogba act like he's god's gift to football despite the state of your midfield.

  6. In 2014 when Lewis won his first title with Merc. That season he had more poles than Lewis, 12-7 it was.

  11. Yeah that's the one I tried to post . Vettel and Verstappen have taken some excellent wins in that car but as they've tended to dominate those races as it was the best car, they're not as fond memories. Germany 2019 which was won by Verstappen was probably the most fun of his wins as a neutral. Ricciardo got 6(?) wins for them in that era which was more dominated by Mercedes with Ferrari in 2nd so usually something interesting happened for his wins. See also Baku that time when Lewis and Seb hit the joint self destruct button behind the safety car .

  12. Just starting Capri's 2ne book in the HUNT FOR JACK REACHER series, JACK IN A BOX, @Waylander, you read the Reacher books and you might just might like this, it took me a little while to get into the book and the 2 main characters in FBI agents Otto & Gasper but once I read a few chapters I got hooked, they will never beat Reacher or Capri will never be a Lee Child though.

  13. Robertson and McGuire once hull prospects, one cost 8m and made one team better, the other cost 80m and made 19 teams better. this is why McGuire cost 10x more.
