There's an alternate universe where El Ghazi, Ricardo Kishna and Viktor Fischer are some of the best wingers of the past decade but now they're all without a team

Over. Man's basically an Irish Harry Kane regen in terms of his playstyle and finishing ability.
avatar
Over he’s got 1 goal in 12 mins so far this season. Was centimeters from making it 2 goals.

obviously over

I know that there are some saying he didn't prove himself enough in the Champions league, Barca, statpadding in Ligue 1 etc trying to deny him as arguably the greatest striker of his generation. That Ligue 1 Argument to me is not that good, as he played in arguably the best league in the world from 2005-2007. To me personally, he is one of the most complete strikers in history. Exceptional technical qualities both on the ground and in the air, where he could do various skills at a very high level, volleys and acrobatic skills who were efficient aswell. Could shoot with both feet, had great understanding of the game, had incredibly powerful long distance shots, freekicks and in general great finishing too. Had great understanding of the game, great leadership and great vision too, could set up players really well with the back against the goal and also with through balls too. He had also a great longevity too. To me personally in my opinion, Zlatan is more naturally gifted than Lewandowski, Benzema and Suarez, who are all great players ofcourse. Arguably Lewandowski will maybe at the end of his career be considered more successful or as, while Suarez and Benzema were more successful in the CL or interms of the Ballon'dor. But the Cl or the Ballon'dor doesn't make you a better player, it's a lot more than that. With all due respect the other great strikers like Shevchenko or Inzaghi, is Sheva better than Zlatan because he has a Golden ball? Is Inzaghi better than Ibra because he scored 2 goals in the Cl final? No. It's unfortunate with the CL, but it is what it is. Ronaldo Fenomeno too never won the Cl but won the World cup, although he played for Brazil and Ibra for Sweden.

According to Chelsea's management hie is worth at least 500 mil

Nikola Jokic

Well what can I say, I agree I also really liked Moukoko's contribution in that game. Him, Duranville and Gio

I'm still baffled at how things fell apart so quickly. This was one of the best run clubs for the past decade yet in the last year, they somehow managed to sell players for enormous profits and still end up in financial trouble. I don't know how you can survive with the amount of players leaving for free this summer. We're going to have to sell Madison and Barnes to make payroll next season. We have held on to too much dead weight, Westergaard, Mendy, Praet, Bertrand, even Pereira and Ndidi should have been sold when they were worth something. Now these players are all going to leave for peanuts. Replace them with youngsters will be good but I don't see a way back quickly...

Bellingham is injured and unfit.

THE WORLD SHALL KNOW MY PAIN

As much as I rate Gotze for what he's achieved both past & present, Brandt is clearly miles ahead of him right now in terms of game-changing qualities and impact. He deserves to be above him in the pecking order and I hope Flick realizes that.

Bayern, atletico, inter, AC and many other Top clubs who fight for the champions league were interested from 2017 to 2021 but he wanted to stay. He rejected 5 times the wages and hoffenheim 40mil so he could still play for them. I love him but maybe he should have left in 2021 when we couldnt play european football again. He's still a great player but now he's getting older so his market value dropped. Hoffenheim was dead 18th in january 2016 when he arrived on loan from Leicester and after a great recovery they bought him for hoffenheims record transfer of 11mil in the summer. Over 150 goals 70 assists in 7 years and they were 4th and 3rd in the bundesliga with him in 2017 and 2018, 6th in 2020 and unlucky a few times like 2019 or 2022 were half of the squad was injured at the end of the season including him so they went from top 4-6 to like 9 to 11th place in the last games of the season in those years. Kramarić is a really loyal player and he knew he's a legend for hoffenheim
avatar
BRO IVE JUST READ IT. Cmon man i know ball! Now seriously, I really hope he evolve in union an it be a really succesful loan for both him and Union. I really wish bundesliga earn more with TV money so the german clubs can get more competitive internationally

Apparently, Colwill forgot for a second that he's still a Chelsea player when he gave an interview shortly after securing European football for Brighton. Makes sense since he didn't get a chance. Where have we seen that before (Guehi, Tomori, De Bruyne, Salah, Lukaku, etc)? Instead, they did buy an over-the-hill, bookings-merchant in Koulibaly and an extremely talented LCB in Badiashile, who cost more than youth player Colwill would've. Maybe these amortization merchants need another transferban so that they can actually give talented players a chance. Worked last time, until Chelsea had money to spend and then turned to their ridiculous ways again. They're getting close to being a Spurs 2.0, meaning a team that nearly everybody laughs at due to being so stupid.

Nope joining Forest to form the best Brexit midfield duo in the Land with Ryan Yates. No skill, just pashun
avatar
Might as well rejoin schalke

Mbeumo after hearing Toney got banned https://s3a.sofifa.net/49b7dcc2c0fa97d8b47c48019edbf82fd8752327.jpg
avatar
Im not saying this because of the timing with his current performance, but hes actually so underrated. Not only in fifa but also just by alot of people in general. What the fuck is that fifa rating tho?
avatar
People should stop comparing him with Messi and Ronaldo, we should just be happy we had the privillege to watch the 3 of them play.
avatar
If I was any of these top Brighton players the last thing I’d be doing is moving club to risk playing half the amount of games. The teams got an excellent manager, already investing in the squad for summer and about to get European football!
avatar
He's honestly not that bad it's just the price tag will come with hate, and it doesn't help that Chelsea are some 💩 right now
avatar
This guy reminds me of Havertz, he doesnt know what position he is, he doesnt know if he should act like a ST or playmaker, he doesnt know what hes good at, and he makes bad decisions on the pitch. Very average all round, but good enough all round to make you think there's hope for him. I'm very worried for him long term, I've seen this story before
avatar
Bartomeu's Barca was*
avatar
You still got time. Grind and run it like you stole something. Wish all the best for you my man. I hope to see you in FIFA soon
avatar
Overhated
avatar
He could have if he didn't join Barça
avatar
do u really think Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have nearly the amount to spend on a football club compared to entire royal families funded by nations lmao
avatar
Why do people complain about this club? The whole premier league and many Championship clubs are owned by some rich people. People don't care about the Premiere League being plastic af, but Wrexham get's a lot of hate for doing the same, lol.
avatar
The Reus replacement is Julian Brandt and he costs 0$
avatar
jonjo shelvey taught him everything he knows
avatar
Badé saved Nianzou so many times so yeah ...
avatar
He isn’t the best technicaly but very hight football IQ 80-82 with 83 in vista and 83 in defensive awareness
avatar
I think Chelsea needs a defensive CDM, Enzo really can make it but would be better giving more freedom to join attacks, that's when he shows off
avatar
He's been unreal along with Botman considering he cost us 3m. Was class under Rafa tbf, Bruce just ruined everyone
avatar
The real madrid of the europa league
avatar
Never said he wasn't impactful for us. He'll forever be a legend for us and a premier league legend (imo) but anyone that says he hasn't been on a decline over the last few years hasn't watched him in regular basis and they are judging him based on few games against the big teams and extended highlights. You're right about the injury being factor to his drop off and pace being big part of his game but its not his recent injury for Bayern that have made him lose his pace and form He's lost all of his pace in the 2020/21 szn( since he came back from long covid to be precise) and ever since then, his performance has dropped off masively. I can't think of a single time where he beat a fullback for pace in the last two seasons for us. Let me ask you this, have you ever thought the reason why we signed Luis Diaz and why Mane started playing false 9 rather than wing in the final season of his liverpool career?
avatar
He is such an odd player. Misses chances like morata, but causes 5x more chaos and danger than him
avatar
why would you have this profile pic of an incel mass school shooter? honestly? either you've got a sickening sense of humor or an extremely worrying taste in role models
avatar
El cucuy?
avatar
he was, but the thing is he was a bit inconsistent and suffered some injuries that stopped his progress. he could score from any angle tho
avatar
Well if a player worthy of being 90 rated is what you mean by full potential, then no. Maybe in the right environment he can be 83 or 85
avatar
83
avatar
That's what you get when you spend your golden years in psg
avatar
When your country will produce decent players again? Shall be disqualified with Venezuela and Cúlívia again...

Highway robbery

At least he's not Home Alone, one of his brothers plays in Argentina too
avatar
we might actually go down

spurs need him but won’t get him kinda player
avatar
The fact that he is 6'1" and listed as 5'9" in the game is actually ridiculous
avatar
I am doing the same thing. I have a collection of 43 shirts now. I have a signed James Rodriguez and Mbark Boussoufa shirt. El Shaarawy, Taraabt, Ronaldinho, Ziyech, Quaresma... ( the category you are talking about ). It's nice to have them and remember the fantastic moments they gave us.
avatar
Cheers Geoff.

Underrated 84/84. I've been saying this for a long time, this guy fits very well with what Guardiola demands from a LB, in Man City. A LB with the ability to move up to the midfield, and set up attacking plays, as Cancelo does. Raphael Guerreiro as LB, and Cancelo as RB, under Guardiola's command would redefine the position we know as LB and RB. But we know that Raphael Guerreiro will never go to man city, and Cancelo got into trouble with Pep.
avatar
It was very bad for both
avatar
facts but don’t think you should write Troy off it’s too early, and he’s done well with the national team actually, surely the expectations were too high but i still think he can have his moments
avatar
US/Mexico rivalry aside hope this guy makes the grade. Its good for CONCACAF as a whole when we have top talents on any of our national teams.
avatar
Guys unfortunately San Marino lost 0-2 against Nothern Ireland😢😢
avatar
Hope he won't leave Brighton too soon, could ruin his good run.
