SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2021/22

Jesus Barcelona are shit

 

Busquets retire please

 

I really don't think it's far-fetched that Vinicius Jr. will be on the level Salah's at right now by time he's in his mid 20s.

 

If it's the game I'm thinking of you're in for a treat.

 

I'm sure it is.

Not much defense in this one .

 

Faustino Asprilla looked pretty talented.

 

He sure was. Frustratingly inconsistent though.

 

Hojberg with the dive

 

If there's a bigger shithouse than Rudiger in World football then I'd like to meet them. Guy is literally a black version of Toni Schumacher.

 

Really hope West Ham can pinch the last Champions League spot this season. No interest in watching Arsenal roll over for teams next year like they always do in Europe.

 

Well they won tonight.

Just watched Spurs.

They fought us hard.

Rolled over tonight like hedgehogs.

Sorry outfit

 

Keep taking the knee boys
...

 

Cantona lookin like Mel Gibson.

 

I know. The beard and mental illness.

 

Back to today, I think its safe to say that Haaland, Vinicius Jr, and Foden are the three best under 23 year old years on the planet.

 

Yep, I'd agree with that. With Haaland the best of the three right now. I think Foden, whilst brilliant technically, is still developing physically. Once he gets his "man-strength" he's going to be very difficult to deal with. Haaland is already a naturally big guy with crazy athleticism to go with his prodigious technique, so he has a bit of a head start on the other two. Will be interesting to see where he ends up going if he decides to leave Dortmund, hopefully not Bayern or City. Would love to see him in the Premier League.

 

Ansu Fati can be special also, and he's only 19.

I forgot about Jadon Sancho. He too is only 21, but Sancho certainly isn't as good as Vini Jr.

 

Noa Lang is one of the best young players in the world. He plays for Club Brugge, but I've watched him a couple times, and I think he's good enough for the EPL.

 

Sancho is an excellent player but yeah, I don't see him in the same class as the aforementioned three.

Haven't seen Fati or Lang yet, will check them out.

 

Haaland is definitely one of if not the ugliest people ever.

 

Pedri is good. I back Spain to win something again soon. They almost made the final of the Euros.

 

Antony, who plays for Ajax, is another potential prodigy. He's 21.

 

Easily the ugliest athlete on Earth.

 

Chelsea fans (at least on the Prem Facebook page) seem to love him.

 

Do you disagree with him?

 

I don't know. I was watching Sumo Wrestling on NHK the other day. Not only are most of those guys huge and flabby (the preferred body style for that sport) but for some reason, most of them are also uglier than a sack full of assholes.

 

Slice inspired me by mentioning him.

Yeah, Dalglish was superb.

 

No. I agree 100%!! It baffles me why we are taking the knee then doing business with Qatar, where, I am sure, the knee will not be taken.

 

X, Google "Scotland Argentina '78"

"Scotland Argentina 78" is basically a synecdoche for "A history of the Scottish national football sides disasters over the past 100 years "

They went there full of belief, lost two games to two sides that were shit, then absolutely outplayed and beat probably the best side at the tournament, the Dutch.

And they've been doing it ever since.
