backup Striker?

if we bought him we would surely be a starting winger

and his backup striker role is a huge plus in his favour

Sorry that was what I meant.......lets see what happens. We wont get anyone in in Jan even if we we are allowed. Come summer the judgement will come for the board. I hope they pull through.

supposedly Messi has won the Ballon d'Or again

I hate the dippers the van Dijk got ROBBED if that is the case

if not him, then Lewandowski (although he will more than likely win it next year, IF he keeps up his pace so far)

they do the voting at a stupid time, it should be right before the season starts and based off only the previous league season plus cups and also any major international tourney like the WC and Euros/Copa America

last year was an even worse joke

Modric was the worst winner since Michael Owen

How was he robbed? 

Messi led Europe in goals, dwarfs anyone else in chances created, most FK's and most hattricks. 

It's become a farce that this award used to emphasise who won the the CL or who won a international competition vs who actually was the best in Europe.

Stats alone aren't the only marker. If anything, trophies should be king unless Messi is getting Muller-esque stats.

VvD reached two finals, winning one.

he failed at the big trophies

and he plays in a pinball league with horrific defences

if he played in the EPL for his career he would have well over 100 less league goals

part of the reason the Spanish teams go so deep all the time in the CL is that they can coast in the league except when they play each other, put them in the EPL and have the snot beaten out of them every week and it would take a toll

and he is a World Cup choker ( a national team choker in general) ZERO Sr trophies

I don't like Messi (although he did deserve some of his Ballons d'Or)

he can never be rated the best player ever IMHO unless he somehow wins the WC in December 2022, plus he doesn't even have a far easier to win Copa America trophy, at least CR7 took a truly shit Portuguese team to a Euro trophy

CAN SOMEONE JUST BEAT LEICESTER?! JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!! 

Might happen when they play a notable side. Last defeat was against that Utd side, so..

They last lost to Liverpool in early October, which was also the last time they dropped points. Both of their losses have been via penalties. Their next 3 league games...

Watford (h)
Villa (a)
Norwich (h)

I mean...never mind. :rant:

Leicester deserved the win

they were the better team

they are probably a better team than us for NOW (IF they stay healthy)

I do NOT rate any other team above us (save for the dippers and Shitty)

Mou or no Mou, we simply must finish above Spuds again

and absolutely there is ZERO chance I rate Manure or Arse above us (regardless of who will be their new managers)

 (OGS soon will be sacked, it basically has to happen)
