SambaBoy replied to the thread La Liga 2024/25.Crazy how obssesed people are with Rashford. Commenting on how amazing a player is and then immediately comparing him to a player in a different league & position who has no relevance at all.

SambaBoy replied to the thread Facts about football that shouldn't be true - but are.Hmm don't think that's true, without googling it, I seem to remember going a game on NYD at Old Trafford and Tevez scored. Don't think that would have been in 2012 as he was at City at the point.

SambaBoy replied to the thread Jadon Sancho - Chelsea (loan) watch | £5M opt-out fee | Skysports: Chelsea negotiating to keep if contract terms agreeable.Getting the ball in a lot of dangerous posiitons, dribbles forward 5 yards with the defender retreating and 75% of the time, he turns back and plays it backwards. The other 25%, he comes inside on his right foot, easy to read and gets crowded...

SambaBoy replied to the thread Alejandro Garnacho | 2024/25 Performances.He's too careless with the ball, that was an incredibly bad performance. I get young wingers can be inconsistent and make the wrong decision but with Garnacho sometimes it's just the simple basics that lets him down.

SambaBoy replied to the thread Players you had forgotten existed.Read an interview with him where that World Cup basically wrecked his career long term as he took quite a lot of injections going into it. The following season, he constantly had issues with his knee and numerous surgeries, never really...

SambaBoy replied to the thread Rayan Cherki - Lyon player.See people comparing him to Sancho on this thread. I think there's a massive difference in not only talent but mentality. From the little I've seen of Cherki, he's willing to try stuff even when his confidence is 'low' or should be low. He'll...

SambaBoy replied to the thread City and Financial Doping | Charged by PL with 130 FFP breaches | Hearing begins 16th Sep 2024 | Concluded 9th Dec 2024 - Awaiting outcome.Which contradicts your above point - you've said Newcastle have had to play by the rules and have went from relegation battlers to competing in the CL & winning cups within 2-3 seasons, so they've done that by spending money within the rules...

SambaBoy replied to the thread City and Financial Doping | Charged by PL with 130 FFP breaches | Hearing begins 16th Sep 2024 | Concluded 9th Dec 2024 - Awaiting outcome.But Newcastle aren't accused of any charges or financial misconduct? Your conflating investment from an outside party and cheating.

SambaBoy replied to the thread Tyler Dibling.I meant we did sign Dorgu for £30m who was arguably more unproven and with no PL experience.

SambaBoy replied to the thread City and Financial Doping | Charged by PL with 130 FFP breaches | Hearing begins 16th Sep 2024 | Concluded 9th Dec 2024 - Awaiting outcome.I despise City as much as anyone. But the whole 'blatant cheating' and 'players knowingly participating under a scandal' is a bit OTT. They've inflated revenue, and paid managers/players off the book. They haven't been part of a doping or...

SambaBoy replied to the thread Cheltenham 2025.Which ever one gets boosted to evens on Bet365 will be the one who will let the four fold down. Think Annie Power years back, the bookies were estimated to lose £50m if it had won, was 1/4 and was cruising then just randomly ran into the last fence.
