I think I was clear enough. I doubt that he intends to play on a highest level at that stage. If he wants, he can play until 40 and still contribute.
Don't agree with Weigl being the standout DM, i feel Paredes for example at Roma is more talented, Weigl is good but he doesn't look to me like a standout once in a generation like Veratt is or Pogba has potential to be.
Neymar will be following the stereotypical Brazilian route of being long clapped out by that age!
Feel like hes overrated. Great physical attributes but not the best technically. Has been meh at Bayern so far. Young and has potential, but a couple of good games at the euros made his reputation skyrocket compared to what it should be imo.
I think this is a bit off to be honest.
How are two already WC players gonna turn to shit? At worst, they won't get any better, which wouldn't mean that much given they are already 2 of the best players in the world...
They are not world beaters now,but everyone and his dog thinks they will be . Just like I think Martial will be.
Sorry but both Dybala and Veratti are a lot more proven than Martial.
Not world beaters, but already among the best. Dybala at his best is already one of the top 15-20 players in the world
Aye, it's always difficult to project who will develop into a star from the age of <20 (see that England team that was posted earlier). But for anyone in their early 20s it's a lot more straightforward. It's only really a challenge when there's a generational gap in top class players coming through in a specific position. For example, at the end of the 2000s it would have been tricky to predict which goalkeepers would now be at the top, because one good generation of keepers (Buffon, Casillas, Cesar, Cech, VDS) was coming to an end, while the next one was still emerging.
Quite a few picked Bailly so I guess your answer is him.
Imagine putting Salah in there at the time.
Not a bad post in retrospect.
I can’t be unhappy… even the worst picks in this XI are still competent enough and play for big teams.
Is having higher rated than Pedri?
I won't say too much about your selection, but I will tell a story about my father who died in March 2021 from Parkinsons decease. Up until his last weeks he would get upset and mad when Manchester United played on TV and Pogba was there. Noone provoked him more and he always used to say that Pogba just walked around with no spirit and no ability to fight when things went against the team. Pretty much what Roy Keane is saying.
I totally agree. I don't understand at all why Pogba is there. My dad died from Parkinsons in march last year and everytime he saw Pogba on TV his tremors would increase.
It's interesting and would argue that 5 years seems too long for some positions in modern football. You'd argue that the two best strikers in the world are Lewa and Haaland. One is 33 and one is 21, so you'd need to guess a 16 year old and a 28 year old will be the worlds best. Similarly when it comes to wide forwards, you could argue the best are Salah and Mbappe. You'd be guessing an 18 year old and a 24 year old (more reasonable) but Salah was just starting to emerge, it was just before Liverpool signed him. You always have random wildcards too like Mendy and Kante who have come from nowhere.
Oops.
