El Cholo managed to dismantle two European giants who have both took over Spain and are heavily influenced financially by unfair distributed TV Revenue in the league. What he accomplished last year, is on the same level as Mourinho's success with Porto in 04 imo.
. Messi's individual statistics and contributions for involvement of play during the World Cup reached numbers that haven't been seen since Maradona of 86' ironically, hence his player of the tournament award. Argentinas Defence played a critical role but Messi was blatantly the x factor as no other argentine forward wanted to show up
Yet Messi practically carried Argentina to the World Cup final, both have variables that could help them win but to openly state as if it were factual that Ronaldo would win it is a bit irrational.
How are we fucked? We had plenty of talented players before him and we moved on just fine when they left. Right now he is focused with us and is putting everything he has to help win us trophies. That is all we can ask of him. Since when were Man United linked with Messi btw?
We still need players? Christ some of you are never satisfied. We have one of the most complete and best squads in Europe and practically have a player capable of world class potential in every position.
Another game I have to miss due to work or Uni. Thankfully I didn't miss the Everton one as that will go down as a premier league classic. This weekend does have some tasty fixtures. Arsenal vs City The Madrid Derby Barca vs Bilbao And of course the East Midlands Derby
I find it laughable how a team that manages to get 4th place in the league year after year whilst having to qualify via playoff still manages a top seed spot.
It won't. He's been the best LB in the world for a couple years now and has played with a similar defence and playing style in Atletico. The only thing keeping him out is Ivanovic's supreme form and Azpilicueta's defensive resilience.
Makes me giggle when people say, especially those clueless scousers, when they claim United was Mourinho's preferred destination. Another variable where it would see me not bothered if Liverpool continue throughout the years in mediocrity.
