11Drogba 2,000 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Ah, are you guys still calling the Bundesliga a Mickey Mouse league? You do realize England was the only one of the top 8 leagues that didn't have a team in any European Quarter finals last year right? Even Belgium had one, and we pay our players in peanuts. I said it before. Your league is overrated. You have the broadest base in world football, which is great, but you haven't had a world beater team for years. When has an English team won a CL final without being the underdog? I guess the last time was Man Utd in 99 because their wonder generation was at the top of their game at the time (sorry guys, but you kinda were underdogs in 2012). How many true world class players moved to an English team in the past four or so years? Hazard maybe, Aguero maybe. All of the other ones are players that Barca, Real or Bayern didn't want. Ronaldo moved away, Suarez moved away, Bale didn't go to a Premier League team, Neymar moved straight to Barca. Fabregas moved away when he was considered world class. Neither him nor Pedro would be anywhere near Chelsea if they managed to keep a starting spot at Barca. It's harsh but true.The Premier League has all the money in the world but none of the vision. I hope Kevin will not become a victim of that mentality. If Real loses to a team like Crystal Palace at home, fans would follow the team bus to the training ground and protest there. We can't even criticize here without being called plastic or glory hunter. For players it is easy in England compared to other countries, that's why they don't have to push themselves to the limit.

simonez 69 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Lol, nice try pizza man.You said Oscar would have outperformed KDB in stats easily. i took you up on that. All the rest are things you want to put into my mouth. once again! Its about your statement Oscar would certainly do better. Again?Do I think is world class: no. Do I say this because I am belgian: no - I say it because I have seen him play a LOT, even live.So before you go all "macho man" on me - your post and the certainty with which you made that bold claim about Oscar was my focus.But I get it that your ego got a bit bruised. Why else all the reference to nationality, the NT, beers and what not. Grow up.Sorry mate, i might have missed the post where you kindly replied to my statement about Oscar potentially having better stats than De Bruyne in Bundes.My pc just showed me the one where you sounded offending and bullying. My answer was more a joke than pure serious.Anyway, i don't wanna get involved in arguing about De Bruyne while our team look dogshit and it seems like no real game changer player (besides Pedro) will join us at the moment. He's the smallest of our problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonez 69 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 ,Id rather have KDB back and Lukaku than any of your Italian world beaters,, Currently your NT is on par with England that is just below Scotland .. Good night enjoy your pasta So you might have a secret crush on overrated players. And It's a shame because Verratti would be the perfect signing for our cm spot.

I hope Kevin will not become a victim of that mentality. I totally agreed with you about the Premier League being in decline for the last 4/5 years, but in my opinion still levels above the Bundes (with the exception of Bayern which is clearly better than any PL team). Referring to La Liga clubs apart from Real and Barca as championship material was the real BS. But things might change next year with the new tv rights deal (and i think it will), even if money wasn't the reason because the funds have always been there but badly spent (I can mention for example how Tottenham spent the treasure generated by Bale's sale).

Duppy Conqueror 1,536 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 signed for the enemy now so for the first time since he left I care what he does. never wish any player has a serious injury (well unless they are a dirty leg breaker,then it`s not so bad) but never wish a player for a rival club has success either. iseah100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
