QUOTE (han2503 @ Sep 11 2016, 05:20 PM) 2 of them have already failed terribly while Man U have spent record sums... Not the best advertisement there Jack. And Mourinho is off to a rocky start as well. Getting outplayed like that is such a highly touted fixture is not something to write home about. I'm sure he will do well overall, but I don't think he'll win the title tbh I doubt he'll win the title. He took over a pretty bad team. People seem to focus a lot on the Pogba transfer and ignore the fact that Man City - who had a much superior squad to begin with - spent more than Man U this summer, even though Man U broke the transfer record. As for Fellaini, if you compare reputation to ability, he's one of the most underrated players around. He's started the season on fire, winning the ball back a ridiculous amount.

Does simply winning the ball justify his overall presence on the pitch? I personally don't think so. 3-1 loss today as well. after the defeat to City and in the EL.

QUOTE (Fishdoll @ Aug 2 2017, 09:52 PM) It is if you're watching Barca twitter melt down. I saw a bunch of people act like it's totally justified. Neymar is poison and should move on. They will buy Veratti and Coutinho and some fullback etc etc. Non-Barca fans are sticking up for Neymar saying he's being pushed out by Messi and Suarez and it's a Latin American racist thing etc. etc.

QUOTE (Fishdoll @ Aug 2 2017, 03:41 PM) Personally, I think money played a big part (Neymar and his father seem very fond of lots of $$), but I suspect there's also an element of being the star of the team out from Messi's shadow to it as well. That's all there is. Neymar's ego expects to be the main man. He thought he'd be it by now. If an entire country idolises him as the modern Pele or Ronaldo, he expects to have earned it from his club's city by now. But nowhere near it, and Messi stays as the power. Neymar wants to be number one, and while it's an immature way to be, you could equally argue it's justified with the ability the guy has. And it'll never happen at Barca.
