Querulous Megapode's latest activity
-
Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Ballon d'Or 2025.Dembele feels like a perfectly valid winner after that final. These things don't have to go to whoever wins the biggest competitions, but neither Raphinha nor Yamal were so good as to override it as a factor, either. Salah might have been, but...

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Women's CL 24/25 Final | Arsenal v Barcelona - Arsenal champions.DAZN are apparently broadcasting this live on YouTube right now, though maybe not in the UK:

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Free All-Time Draft - R1: Eden vs Zlatan Jr.I see nothing in the writeup to indicate the "J" in "J. Cruyff" stands for "Johan". You'd think United fans'd be at least a little weary. Otherwise, this:
-
Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Antonio Conte | Staying at Napoli.Not really. You've been pretty close to lesser leagues all season, in all fairness.
-
Querulous Megapode replied to the thread La Liga 2024/25.Ajax's still up there too, but the sheer concentration of talent they've churned out over the past thirty years or so is exceptional. Even their so-called fallow years still saw players like Thiago, Icardi, Olmo, Fati, Xavi Simons, Cucurella...

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Lamine Yamal.He's actually Quaresma's spirit animal.

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Lamine Yamal.Let's tackle this another way. These are, in my opinion, Yamal's best three performances of the season: Some other noteworthy games: And also (for completeness' sake, like): Some obvious questions that emerge here: Where...

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Lamine Yamal.He ranks ninth across the top five leagues in goal involvements for the season, while leading Europe in both big chances created and most dribbling stats. That's before even delving into how poorly his team's performed without him, or how...

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Lamine Yamal.It legitimately doesn't matter which flank he's passing from. He's got two equally good left feet, and his right foot isn't even useless. Add the deliberate, probing dribbling style, and it feels as though he's coming up with new solutions to old...

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Who is the best player in the world this season? (2024 - ‘25).Yamal's won the Euros, and will likely win the Spanish double this year. Should he be geting the awards if Inter fail to lift either trophy?
-
Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Lamine Yamal.Some crazier stats: he made fourteen out of twenty dribble attempts yesterday, won seven fouls, and hit the woodwork three times over the tie. (He apparently told CBS didn't even see Raphinha for that late lob in the first game. He'd previously...

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Lamine Yamal.Super Saiyan II Yamal has been pretty wild: I'm surprised he had this extra level to tap into at this stage of the season. I thought he'd looked tired for awhile, and downright exhausted vs. Madrid in the cup final.

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Who is the most unplayable player ever ?.There was Gary Lineker, that one game in particular. I refuse to google which, though.

Querulous Megapode replied to the thread Creating a retired squad with less than 50 international caps that could win the world cup/CL.That makes sense. I actually looked for it, but my eyesight can be largely vibes-based at this point. Giuseppe Giannini could technically fit, although I think his best work might have happened in the Eighties.
