Yesterday, it was logical when PSG eliminated Barcelona. Xavi even announced last month that he won't be the coach in 2024/25. Of course, the advantage of the first leg was great, but if we look at the consistency of the whole year, it was logical that PSG would qualify. The logic today is for...

I see that and I can't help but be suspicious of Calcio. Strange results

I like Chelsea's midfield duo (Caicedo and Enzo), both combine technique and physical strength, Palmer is promising, the rest don't catch my eye

Casemiro's peak is comparable to that of Rodri. But Casemiro was in the shadow of Kroos and Modric (but who wouldn't be?)

That Necastle and Everton game is very suspicious. The Newcastle defender (Dummett) came on at the 80th minute and gave away a silly penalty at the 85th minute. Very strange. If someone wanted to manipulate the match, they'd have the defender come on and give away a penalty minutes later. I...

I think Barcelona will go for Unai Emery (he's Spanish, he's done a good job) and Liverpool could end up with a German coach to maintain their philosophy (thomas tuchel or hans flick).

Cristiano Ronaldo could still easily play for a top European team, if he reduced his wages

11th with this Chelsea team? Pochettino is the worst coach in EPL.

Two mistakes from Pickford (poor clearance and he could have caught that cross). England should beat this Belgium team. Germany reborn with Kroos and Brazil has a very young and promising team

Perhaps we'll have to argue between more complete players and specialists in one or more attributes. There are players who could do everything on the pitch: create chances, score goals, take free-kicks, headers, dribbles. This was Pelé, Di Stefano, Cruyff, Zico etc. On the other hand, there...

Without Kane and Saka, England's attack is not world class. They'll struggle to score against any team in the European Championship.

I don't agree with punishments that take away points. I think it leaves room for corruption and fixing championships. In defense of the EPL, other leagues, such as Serie A in Italy, do the same thing. But I think it enables corruption. They could make alternative punishments, like forcing...

I think Casemiro was United's best player in his first season and is much better than Amrabat. Casemiro is top 3 defensive midfielder in the world. I rate him very highly But I hear he's addicted to betting and that United are scared. You never know. Makes sense

It's interesting to look at Beckenbauer's sofascore numbers and compare them to modern players. One of the greatest.

Fluminense was easily defeated, as everyone expected. There is a lot of difference in the quality of the players. But it's an interesting idea from Fluminense to play from behind in a different way than the Europeans do, as shown in this first video.
