It sounded interrogative.You think you should?
Don't you feel man enough by yourself? You want to show it to me?
No, thanks. Keep it for yourself and it will be obvious when you talk, write etc.

When I 'm trying to have a conversation and a very experienced member keeps laughing at my comments with a useless emoticon that adds nothing more to the conversation than trying to humiliate my opinions and so I am asking him to move on, I am not the one who is annoying.Get off your fecking high horse, you're annoying.
I am sorry to have to spell it out for you but yes you are. You've come here with an all-knowing bullshit attitude talking about end of stories and other shite, asking very weird if not ridiculous questions and acting like a prat when somebody answers them not along the lines you'd like them to be answered. Then you proceed to talk more utter shite about being manly or not manly enough, nobody cares, pipe down, come back tomorrow.When I 'm trying to have a conversation and a very experienced member keeps laughing at my comments with a useless emoticon that adds nothing more to the conversation than trying to humiliate my opinions and so I am asking him to move on, I am not the one who is annoying.
The emoticons are an expression of how mindbendingly fatuous some of your comments are.When I 'm trying to have a conversation and a very experienced member keeps laughing at my comments with a useless emoticon that adds nothing more to the conversation than trying to humiliate my opinions and so I am asking him to move on, I am not the one who is annoying.
Its not just any war. Its Redwar.Thread is getting too feisty and personal.
Can't we all just get along and bash Ronaldo together? Where is @Bob Loblaw?
I'm surprised he has such a low post count in 2 years.Its not just any war. Its Redwar.
Well, you know it's annoying, you know nobody should overuse them. If he disagrees, he should write down his opinions. That's all I am saying.The emoticons are an expression of how mindbendingly fatuous some of your comments are.
I think it is harder these days. The lesser teams are pragmatic and really well drilled defensively. There are fewer and fewer whipping boys anymore. OK those teams lack quality offensively but such it the level of knowledge in defensive coaching that those teams can shut out better teams with better players. We have seen time and time again in this tournament late late goals winning it for the superior teams, or not at all in Portugal's case for instance.It is strange how the two standout players of this generation have not hit the heights of previous legends on the international stage.
Is it a case of the club teams being built around them (with the wealth of options selecting from different nationalities provide) or is it more a case of the waning importance the players put on internationals, compared to previous generations?
Would hate for it to be the latter but there is an argument towards it.
Its all just a bit of banter. If you enter a pub and say something that most people find to be ridiculous, you're likely to hear about it. This is really no different.Well, you know it's annoying, you know nobody should overuse them. If he disagrees, he should write down his opinions. That's all I am saying.
I believe Iniesta is better than Ronaldo and that Ronaldo shouldn't be compared to the great ones. Not the first in this planet.
Is that planet Zog to which you refer?Not the first one that does so in this planet.
Andres Iniesta is a very fine football player & I like your username. Which club team do you support my friend?Well, you know it's annoying, you know nobody should overuse them. If he disagrees, he should write down his opinions. That's all I am saying.

Iniesta has been motm in WC final, CL final and Euro final.Its all just a bit of banter. If you enter a pub and say something that most people find to be ridiculous, you're likely to hear about it. This is really no different.
Oh, so when we have a 95% - 5% situation in this forum, the 5% should not have a conversation but should take silly emoticons as well behaved answers.Its all just a bit of banter. If you enter a pub and say something that most people find to be ridiculous, you're likely to hear about it. This is really no different.
At last!Iniesta has been motm in WC final, CL final and Euro final.
While everyone is entitled to their opinion, the fact you think Iniesta is better than Ronaldo is plain wrongWell, you know it's annoying, you know nobody should overuse them. If he disagrees, he should write down his opinions. That's all I am saying.

Amazing...He's a glorified poacher who excels at penalties and tap ins. To even compare him to Maradona is an insult.
As opposed to your post which was subjective fiction.At last!
Truth spoken
True, the international game is much more professional these days - there are no gimmies.I think it is harder these days. The lesser teams are pragmatic and really well drilled defensively. There are fewer and fewer whipping boys anymore. OK those teams lack quality offensively but such it the level of knowledge in defensive coaching that those teams can shut out better teams with better players. We have seen time and time again in this tournament late late goals winning it for the superior teams, or not at all in Portugal's case for instance.
Manchester United.Which club team do you support my friend?
Not at all. Just my opinion.As opposed to your post which was subjective fiction.
To be fair he's not far off. Ronaldo is a goal machine and more often or not he's getting on the end of things in the box having very little influence on the play of the game.Amazing...
Very good. I'm not sure your premature demise is going to help that particular debate along, really.Manchester United.
Oh, I also find Yorke-Cole and the great Scholes-Keane-Beckham-Giggs the most beautiful, the most eye-catching may I say, football that I've seen in my life.
It's not Ronaldo or Messi. Kill me.
I am not having a debate or something. It's just my taste.Very good. I'm not sure your premature demise is going to help that particular debate along, really.
Why is he wrong? Ronaldo's performances don't warrant the hype. He is essentially a box player. Iniesta has dominated every big game he has been in, while Ronaldo has flopped in 3 champions League finals in a row, missed Pens against Barcelona 08, Chelsea 08, Bayern 11 etc. He is a good goal scorer, not great because he is far from clinical and takes the most shots in Europe evry season. As a FOOTBALLER, Iniesta is a level above him. Iniesta elevates his team, CR simply doesn't and simply does well when the team is playing well and has been for almost 4+ seasons. EVen the season he broke the cl record and got 17, non of his goals meant anything. He scored add on goals against Schalke when the team were 2-0 and 3-0 up. Against Bayern he scored the goals after Benzema and Ramos had done well. The greatest players make their teams playe better. He is a finisher. Ity would be like saying RvN is a better footballer than Zidane. That's the way I see it and we both know that is simply not true. CR is a better gs but he is nowhere near the second best player of this geneartion. Messi is in his own leagie, Iniesta Xavi are ahead of him and then I would even pu Suarez above him as well.While everyone is entitled to their opinion, the fact you think Iniesta is better than Ronaldo is plain wrong
True. Had each played at a different time they could've conceivably snapped up 9 or 10 Ballon d'Ors.Ronaldo and Messi are two of the greatest players to ever play the game. Their consistency for almost a decade is unparalleled.
It helps that Iniesta has had the supporting cast that has included one of the best midfielders of his generation and the greatest player of all time. He himself is one of the greats of his era, but his effectiveness would be severely undercut without the supporting cast he's had. A throughball to Messi tends to look sexier than one to Giroud.Why is he wrong? Ronaldo's performances don't warrant the hype. He is essentially a box player.

He will never ever get the best out of his team. His goals have made people believe he is this unstoppable machine that carry's his team to victory but the truth his team carry him for most matches to be able to give him the chances to score by sacrificing themselves for him to score.Why is he wrong?

The haters are having a field day.
He's changed as a player though. Funnily enough the goal machine he has become is a bit less exciting to watch nowHe will never ever get the best out of his team. His goals have made people believe he is this unstoppable machine that carry's his team to victory but the truth his team carry him for most matches to be able to give him the chances to score by sacrificing themselves for him to score.
Great goalscorer he's the second best goalscorer I have ever seen but as a player he falls short compared to the greats of the past.
Nowadays Ronaldo has Kroos and Modric. Nice passers to get fed by. In United he had Rooney, Tevez, Carrick etc.It helps that Iniesta has had the supporting cast that has included one of the best midfielders of his generation and the greatest player of all time. He himself is one of the greats of his era, but his effectiveness would be severely undercut without the supporting cast he's had. A throughball to Messi tends to look sexier than one to Giroud.
