I've been watching Ripley. It's enjoyable but it's basically "what if no one in The Talented Mr. Ripley was likable or having fun."

If people feel they must vote for Biden to prevent a Trump election while also finding his actions re: Israel reprehensible, then what they could do is vote for Biden now in order to prevent a Trump presidency. After the Trump threat is neutralized, they can take political action to ensure that...

The reason why the tweet I posted in the last page is funny, is because of people's insistence that the things that are happening now, under Biden, are the things that will stop happening when Biden is re-elected.

What I have seen in Redcafe is usually the opposite: Biden voters claiming that anyone who doesn't vote for Biden supports women dying, immigrants being fed to a meat grinder, etc. You can vote for whoever you want. The vote police ain't comin'.

They can celebrate the 'imaginary' trophy at Montjuic at the end of the season.

It's very funny that this is all announced after a CL elimination and Clasico defeat that wraps up the league.

Guardiola is the one who brought up 19/20 year old Busquets from the B team (where he had managed him) and made him the starter for Barcelona over Yaya Touré. Bringing up youngsters is often praised here as the mark of a great manager so him helping build the 'greatest midfield trio of all time'...

He wasn't bad, and Barcelona had a great squad. But 'how should we rate it' tends to be a function of 'how much credit to people want to give Guardiola.'

Valdes is one of the weak areas.

That may be true of City (debatable, really) but it certainly wasn't true that his Barcelona squads had no weak areas or lulls.

It doesn't make much sense really. If the perfect environment is "Chelsea when they were playing under Mourinho's blueprint" then why wouldn't Bayern Munich post-Guardiola be an equally perfect environment? Those players had more pedigree than Chelsea's. It's obviously more than that. The drop...

A good chunk of the squad is under 25. Not veteran winners by any stretch of the imagination.

For me the issue is we can easily apply the same standards to Messi and conclude that he is not the best of all time (only won 1 WC and 1 Copa with Argentina, "only" won 3 CLs) but I suspect many people here would not accept that.
