Bit disappointed in Martinez. Know you’re buzzing but throughout the cup he’s come across as a bit of an arrogant, indiscreet gob shite.
Prince Andrew is very much alive I'll have you know.At least that fat drug taking cheat is gone and didn’t see it.
Fuck him C unit!!
Just out of the public eye recently.
Holding his golden glove trophy to his crotch was plain embarrassing.
The English would celebrate how Swansea did for their third, for example. As opposed to how we see Man City with their expected celebration when they’ve paid billions for it. I’m starting to confuse myself now, forget it.
Swansea of course being Welsh just to top it off. Of all the examplesThe English would celebrate how Swansea did for their third, for example. As opposed to how we see Man City with their expected celebration when they’ve paid billions for it. I’m starting to confuse myself now, forget it.
Agreed.
Shithousery on the pitch, whether you agree with it or not, is a means to an end.
That was just childish and achieved nothing.
He's a Argie so almost certainly an arsehole. Did what he needed to though and probably deserves a couple of years at a proper big club now.
Oh, for an 'arrogant, indiscreet gobshite' for two of their goal attempts yesterday.
Might be the Arsenal connection, but his face kept morphing into Martin Keown in my head !

Yeah try and forget the Welshness of it all for a sec
OK yep done that, I get you and I agree some of the crowds here match anything in Europe although ironically rarely the crowds at the top end plastic Prem sides.

Stand corrected - That was pure drama ET. I think I'm good for the next 5 tournaments though.
I know, I'm still cringing the last time I did it myself in a World Cup Final.
All I can think from that pic is that he has absolutely huge arms and a tiny head.
I got the best value for money tuning in after 75 then. Good stuff
Yep one of the dullest for 70 and the best for 50, crazy
Last shift - On nights. Tried to get a couple of hours off but too many out.
Might be a shortage of parts so might be a non production week so hope yet.
Had a nice chat with your boy y'day. He's a smashing chap.
Politics aside I have enjoyed this World Cup and the last 50 mins of the final was incredible!
Not sure about another winter world cup though...

So what’s the argument against Messi being the greatest of all time at this point? His career to date:
One World Cup
One Copa America
Ten La Ligas
Four Champions Leagues
One Olympic Gold
474 La Liga goals (all-time record)
98 goals for Argentina (all-time record)
Six European Golden Boots (all-time record)
Seven Ballon d’Ors (all-time record)
Two World Cup Golden Balls (all-time record)

Feel like that's a gentle fish for an argument but there's not much argument really other than it can be hard to compare eras, he's comfortably the best of his generation.
I'm still in awe watching Maradona even though I'm not old enough to have seen him live, but I'm sure Messi will now be included in that convo. Cristiano never has been for me personally, as undeniably good as he is.

Never done it on a wet Wednesday at Stoke though has he?
Good synopsis TGP. But i would put Maradona into that category too. And probably everyone who has ever played, as it is so difficult to compare across eras, playing styles and law changes.
I would definitely consider Pele and George Best as being all-time greats.
I haven't taken a great deal of interest in following Messi's career, so i spent a lot of these recent matches just focussing on him, and the skill he has is just knowing where he needs to put himself to have greatest impact. He moves very little, but his team-mates know where to find him. He actually ran about a lot (for him) in yesterday's match.
To be honest, while Maradona was clearly the most skilful player of his generation, and had a truly magnetic personality (something which Messi doesn't have at all), how do you explain his comparative lack of achievements? I'm not sure it can just be "people tackled more then"...
Can't really argue , like lineker says though hard to compare eras , how would diego do today with today pitches , with today's nutritionists and fitness and protection?
It's very much still up for debate, I'd imagine the arguments people use today for Messi, in 12 years when mbappe retires people will be saying we'll when Messi was playing players were slower blah blah blah
Well he's clearly a better player than Maradona then, case closed imo
Just seen the French are moaning about argie subs coming onto the pitch as the third goal was scored. Removing any emotion they had 13 players on the pitch at the time the goal went in and it shouldn’t be allowed.
