A career like his, and that's what we remember!Whenever I think of Matthaus, all I see is his gormless look of utter disbelief after we equalised in 99.

It's great isn't itA career like his, and that's what we remember!
Very disappointed he’s right back and not right wing, as will his ancestors be.Mussolini's great grandson plays for Lazio.
The little poser probably doesn't even believe that everything is in the state, and no human or spiritual thing exists, or has any sort of value, outside the state.Very disappointed he’s right back and not right wing, as will his ancestors be.
That's not true. Doesn't take away from your overall point, which is valid. But 04 was Monaco Porto. 2010 was Inter Bayern. 2013 was Bayern Dortmund. 2014 was Real Atletico.In fact from 2004 to 2012 there was an English team in EVERY final.
Honestly couldn't tell you, but we have had De Gea in net for a while who is never likely to be sent off.When was the last time we had a goalkeeper sent off?
Good point. This'll be itI distinctly remember both Ferdinand and O'Shea in goal for us at one point, were they sending offs or injuries?
Giggs was very close, having scored his first in 90/91, if he broke through a season earlier and he’d have matched itLothar Matthäus has scored leauge goals on the highest level in 4 different decades. The 70s, the 80s, the 90s and the 00s
70s: Gladbach
80s: Gladbach/Bayern, Inter
90s: Inter/Bayern
00s: Bayern
Has any other player in the "modern" era accomplished this?
He has also played in European Cup competitions in 4 different decades.
70s: Uefa Cup
80s: Uefa Cup, European Cup, Cup Winners Cup
90s: Champions Leauge, Uefa Cup
00s: Champions Leauge
Has any non goalie done it besides him?
Same hereWhenever I think of Matthaus, all I see is his gormless look of utter disbelief after we equalised in 99.
Good thought - but I'm absolutely sure I remember Romero being sent off for us in a cup game, so that would be more recent (if I'm right).I distinctly remember both Ferdinand and O'Shea in goal for us at one point, were they sending offs or injuries?
I see that on Google too but I'm having a hard time believing it's accurate:Luke Shaw is 6'1
Facts about football that should be true but aren't?I see that on Google too but I'm having a hard time believing it's accurate:
Next to Cancelo who is no way 6ft
Next to Mata, who's what 5'6?
Next to Herrera, who must be 5'10?
He shouldn't be tallFacts about football that should be true but aren't?

Rcoobc is good at footballFacts about football that aren't true?
Yeah that’s a different thread this thread is true. It belongs in the other oneFacts about football that aren't true?

This is not correct at all. He is the only Spaniard to have scored 2 hat-tricks.Roberto Soldado is the only Spaniard who has scored a hat-trick in the CL in its current form (1992-)
He has lost 2 in a row now thoughSadio Mane has never lost a Premier League game at Anfield since signing for Liverpool in 2016.
Herrera is 6 foot himself, which is always the one that surprises me. I'd expect Shaw to be around that height, but Herrera 'feels' much shorter.I see that on Google too but I'm having a hard time believing it's accurate:
Next to Cancelo who is no way 6ft
Next to Mata, who's what 5'6?
Next to Herrera, who must be 5'10?
Wouldn't Ibra also be there, 90s, 00s,10s and 20s. Or are we not including the Swedish league as 'highest level'?Lothar Matthäus has scored leauge goals on the highest level in 4 different decades. The 70s, the 80s, the 90s and the 00s

In some ways yeah, when I think of Spurs they're bigger than that lot in general, but on the other hand I'm 41 and during my lifetime Spurs haven't done that much. There was that thing where they'd win something in a year that ended in a 1 that was often mentioned in the media at one point but that ended back in '91 I think.Leicester, Wigan, Swansea and Birmingham have won more competitions in the past 10 years, than Spurs.
Mind shattered. Like Rishi Sunak being 5'7Luke Shaw is 6'1
PL or English league game? It can't be the latter, surely!Manchester United have NEVER lost a PL/English league game at Old Trafford where they were leading at half time in the entire history of the club.
Kind of thought he'd end up with a better career than he has even though I never rated him. 4 seasons in a row outside of the Premier League and he may never get back. Thought he might be more like a Paul McShane or Danny Higginbotham, plenty of seasons in the top flight for lesser clubs.Paddy McNair is only 25. Probably not that interesting, but I was surprised.
Really surprising and good for him.Tammy Abraham has 21 PL goals for Chelsea in only 33 starts.
Danny Higginbotham is a very underrated analyst/pundit. Clear, insightful and decent.Kind of thought he'd end up with a better career than he has even though I never rated him. 4 seasons in a row outside of the Premier League and he may never get back. Thought he might be more like a Paul McShane or Danny Higginbotham, plenty of seasons in the top flight for lesser clubs.
Still, would fecking love to have had his career says the ex-Sunday league player. He's likely a millionaire.
Good technical ability. Not seen him play for years now.Kind of thought he'd end up with a better career than he has even though I never rated him. 4 seasons in a row outside of the Premier League and he may never get back.

Wasn’t that the full back? I can’t remember his name but wasn’t he a meme for falling over like a fish?Good technical ability. Not seen him play for years now.
went on a train of thought...
Who was the CB that left United on a free, and Spurs then bought him months later to circumvent paying us a fee?
that was dodgy as feck. Can’t remember who that was, and assume they didn’t go into anything of note.
