Eng media is fucking pathetic, have you seen the outcry from all corners crying for vvd? Its so fucking silly, as always when pool is involved they cant stop moaning. They act like this is a first, some even demanding Pickford to be banned as long as vvd is out, bloody hell and they get paid for such horse shit? Shameful and disgusting.

He is a pool player afterall, he is the "best defender" the league has seen, so I didnt expect anything else. This is only the start, just wait till they keep conceding, they will bring his name into it, forgetting they have shipped lots of goals with him too.

he had 2 (last half of last season he started to make big errors) great seasons equivalent (the half when he first cam to the dippers, then the full season, then the first half of last season),

and only one (2018–19) was a full season of great play

his last full season at SOTON he played only 21 league games

and only 26 in the split (SOTON/victimpool) season after that

lets see him do it for 10, 15 or so years (20+ in a freak like Maldini's case) like the actual great CB's

the fucking hype is just madness

VVD is not remotely close to JT or Rio Ferdinand level (the 2 best CB's in EPL history IMHO)

He sure as fuck is not, I take Vidic and Cavalho above him too. He would have been exposed if he played in that era.

Geez, one would think VVD has been killed, enough BS for a whole book to fill out. Lots of condolences, prayers and "RIP "......I would laugh if it wasnt so ridiculous. He is seemingly the only player to suffer a ACL. Gets more over the top by the day. I'm half expecting black armbands soon.

Sol Campbell

Tony Adams

Gary Pallister

Vincent Kompany (when fit)

as well

and for a short period, Jaap Stam (my type of CB, ultimate hard man type, like JT)

cases to be made for Jamie Carragher and Steve Bruce, plus (injuries fucking KILLED him) Ledley King

finally

Marcel Desailly (whose overall career BLOWS away VVD, it is just he was already 30 when he came to us)

So the " big picture project " failed badly and rightfully so, now the 2 big cunts in pool and udt are pushing for a europian super league backed by fifa. Clubs should band together and punish these 2 cunts for good, they really act like big boys dont they.

As a football fan I would support European Super League of 16 teams playing league system. 30 games. We would also play, more money and for us fans it would be great, every other week we would have top games with best teams.

What is the point of group system in CL? Who wants to watch Krasnodar, Kiev, Ferencvaros, Brugge, Istanbul? Plus knockout system, luck is big part and stupid away goal rule.

Ofc I do not want any team to have privilege and all teams should be equal so cannot see Utd and Pool having monopoly.

Imagine league with: Real, Barca, Atletico, UTD, City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Juve, Inter, Milan, Bayern, Dortmund, PSG, Spurs and two more teams maybe Lazio, Napoli, Arse, Sevilla... What is there not to like?

CL is really getting boring, every year is the same. I cannot see any negative arguments about this new league.

Some truths in that, but CL is vital for so many lesser clubs, they depend on it. Though it may sound enticing I cant see it happening anytime soon.
