WC in two years its def worth trying

i can see klopp going to barca next year if flick fails

[dim ledge]

You posted the image

It's all you

[robust grotto]

Klopp is going to be drinking cold beer at a beach like he should

[robust grotto]

Ah

I did

[dim ledge]

Klopp "I'm tired I want to take a break"

Everyone in the world "WHERE WILL HE GO NEXT"

[robust grotto]

HE SHOULD GO TO USA

Lmao

[dim ledge]

Let the man enjoy his cigarettes

[robust grotto]

I have a better chance getting gold out of the Vatican

[dense blade]

he will take 1 year of rest

[robust grotto]

I think he’s going to enjoy his life so much in that 1 year that he will call it a career

It won’t get bigger and better than LFC

Just unnecessary stress

[dense blade]

people seriously underestimate klopp

[robust grotto]

Agree, he’s the man

[dense blade]

bro did all that with liverpool with the worst budget for top6 imaginable

he could be the truth barca needs

[robust grotto]

Yup

[dense blade]

🚨 REMINDER: There is NO Extra-Time in Copa America quarterfinals & semifinals.

If the game ends in a draw after 90 minutes, it will directly go to penalties.

Twitter · Jul 3, 2024, 4:20 PM

[sweet tree]

it's always been like that

[short flame]

Yeah and there’s no need to change it

Every competition has its way of doing things

[sweet tree]

honestly that probably helps out the underdogs tbh

holding a draw for a full 90 and hope for the best on penalties lol

that's kinda how Peru got to the Final back in 2019 iirc

yeah they beat Uruguay on pens in QFs and then beat Chile

[short flame]

Last copa we beat Uruguay in pens in quarters and then lost in pens to Argentina

The one before lost on pens to Chile in the quarters

And the 2018 World Cup we lost to England in pens

We need to be better

[dim ledge]

I hate that actually

Golden goal>that

[short flame]

This is what happens when you leave spurs

[turbid axle]

No Euro or Copa football today and tomorrow.
I'm suffering from withdrawal over here.

[turbid axle]

"Baila aora" 😆

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

[rustic mountain]

I miss hockey

[turbid axle]

Ice hockey is great.
I'm clueless about it in general but I find it very entertaining.

I love how the refs let players brawl sometimes.

Pretty cool.

I've only watched European championship though.
I assume NFL is on a higher level.

[short flame]

I feel a hole inside my body where my heart should be. So sad that there’s no footy today

[short flame]

Do you mean NHL?

[turbid axle]

Oh yes.

[short flame]

NFL is American football

[turbid axle]

My mistake there.

Goes to show how clueless I am. 😆

[short flame]

You’re welcomed to watch hockey, plenty of experts around here

[turbid axle]

You mean the non-football.

[short flame]

Just avoid supporting the sabres

[short flame]

Non football league NFL

[turbid axle]

Handball is cool too.
I started watching a couple of years ago.

Iran's national team is decent, by Asian standards.

Denmark is the current powerhouse.
Three world championships in a row.

[rustic ore]

@dim ledge @proud coyote want to see something funny/sad?

[rustic mountain]

I like the touch of the Giants in the toilet though

Good place for em

[rustic ore]

Giants and Eagles

[rustic mountain]

Yeah but everyone already knows Philly is shit

That's a given

[rustic ore]

Be stunned if DC wasn’t also in there but I can’t tell

[rustic mountain]

Probably is

I will say tho, cowboys or any team aside, if you decorate your bathroom like this, you got some issues

[rustic ore]

Wait I know, DC is stuck in the drains

They know a thing about bad plumbing

[rustic mountain]

God do they

Also that tv screen, unless he cleans it a lot, is covered in shit spray

Literally right above the toilet lmao

[short flame]

Needs to be in front

[rustic mountain]

Or just don't put a tv in the bathroom

[dim ledge]

Jokes on them. That's not the teams they need to worry about

[short flame]

But then he’d have to carry the tv with him into the bathroom . This fan is bright

[proud coyote]

The saddest part is they put the Telly behind the toilet

Like you can’t even watch it

Maybe he shits sitting forward

[restive vector]

This is unhinged

I wonder if he has eagles toilet paper?

[smoky fable]

Got to be ready for Uruguay/Brazil if it comes to pens for that after 90 min

For the semis

[short flame]

3 big tournaments in a row we go out in pens

If we don’t train that then we’re basically forfeiting the game

@dim ledge

Literally just took over and ended the game

[hexed galleon]

copa football tommorow

i think anyway

[turbid axle]

More than 24 hours from now.

[solid dagger]

INSANE

I think people underrate Giannis too much because of his injuries in the past two offseasons

He's still arguably the best player itw

[proud coyote]

LMAO justin brownlee just beat latvia??

my friend went to college with him briefly

he knew him well

had no idea who he was until I was texted lol but still, I'd seen him in photos

@hollow wind your people are succeeding

[dim ledge]

Please do not tell rob

[proud coyote]

oh also, lakers are in the second apron now if there isn't some sort of like

restructuring of the lebron deal

so no trades can really happen that would make sense for them

[honest umbra]

theyre gonna do it so lebron is 1m under

so they can still restructure it

[proud coyote]

makes sense

it seems the blazers rightfully want a first for grant, which means you probably aren't trading for him

could see the lakers being active at the deadline

[hollow wind]

Damn hell yeah. Does Latvia have anyone of note?

[proud coyote]

they're good

#6 in the world

shot horribly from three that game haha

[hollow wind]

Well I’ll take it

And yeah I don’t want to give away any firsts even for a player like Grant who I think would be amazing. Lebron’s not gonna be here for much longer

[honest umbra]

wont matter

this is barely a play in team

[proud coyote]

lol

if they're running it back, yup

[celest zephyr]

Lol what there is one team that is below them with a legit shot at passing them in the kings

Maybe the rockets if they develop

But honestly to me the lakers are going to at least have the same spot if not be higher

The clippers aren’t much better than last season

The suns aren’t either

I really am not betting on zion being healthy or cj suddenly going back to form

[hollow wind]

Think we’re at most 6th but more likely 7th/8th imo. Assuming everyone stays healthy: okc, wolves, mavs, nuggets are top 4. As you said, clippers, suns, and pelicans are pretty big question marks still but I don’t think we’re really better than any of those teams even with their offseason changes. We’ll see but we’re not any sort of big team to watch out for in the west

And we’re probably gonna be stuck that way unless any significant roster changes are made

And then yeah, legit have to watch out for teams like Houston now

Also daaaamn man. Just watched the recap for it

Wild stuff

[desert palm]

Btw

Freeman hr

In the first

It’s already 3-1 dodgers

And Teoscar

4-1 dodgers

[hollow wind]

Wait lol, it’s still the 1st? Nice start

I’m in Hawaii right now and don’t have good connection or a tv so can’t really watch the game

[smoky fable]

Which island? Also nice

[desert palm]

Seattle Mariners:

[austere lava]

pain

agonizing pain

On pace to break the all time strikeout record btw

[proper sable]

Astros cookin with king tuck hurt was not in my forecast but I'll take it

[desert palm]

Oh wow

Astros fan In The house

Astros had a crazy June

They are currently in the wild card hunt

[desert palm]

The end of the game was

12-4

…….

Arizona

Wow

😬 dodgers

[austere lava]

lol they're aiming a bit higher than that

they'll have the division lead by sunday

[proper sable]

sadly we're still pretty banged up but this hot streak has been a fun surprise

[austere lava]

currently praying to god that hunter brown comes back to earth

and any day now regression is gonna hit blanco hardddd but for now that lineup is absolutely brutal

[desert palm]

😬

Rangers on that World Series hangover

🍺

🍻

🍷🥂🍸🍹🍾

🍶

[austere lava]

mariners got me so fucked up im browsing fangraphs every night for possible offensive upgrades

[desert palm]

Ummmmm

I mean

Maybe Luis Robert Jr if he is available

[austere lava]

robert is the big fish

but the bar is so low it shouldnt be hard to get an upgrade

we need like 3 bats

[desert palm]

Jake Burger? 🍔

[austere lava]

dh, 2b and an OF ideally

burger is terrible

so he'd fit right in

[desert palm]

He had a lot of pop last year

Blue Jays could sell, but they said at the moment they’re not

[austere lava]

i WANT vlad but im afraid theres no way the jays are selling him

IKF is having a good year though so id like him

this burger is overcooked

[desert palm]

He is on the IL

[austere lava]

thats fine

[desert palm]

😬

[austere lava]

he could be a paraplegic and hit better than jorge polanco

[desert palm]

Ooooh

Tommy Pham?

[austere lava]

i wouldnt mind him but

he's 36

everytime the mariners bring someone in on the brink of hitting the age curve they plummet off a cliff

[desert palm]

I see what you’re saying

[austere lava]

my dream deadline is Robert, Rooker, India/Rengifo

but even a third of that would be good

[desert palm]

T-Mobile Park is pitcher friendly for an older player

[desert palm]

Rooker is going to be an expensive trade

[austere lava]

yeah he is

[desert palm]

He has at least three years of control if not more

[austere lava]

we have a heck of a farm right now though

[desert palm]

It seems this year a lot of talk is on pitching

You guys generally speaking do not need that though

[austere lava]

probably not

if anything we're likely to let go of one

probably logan evans

[desert palm]

Elias Diaz?

Unless he Might be a Coors merchant

If the Angels are interested, Taylor Ward could be a potential

[austere lava]

Ward or Rengifo from them would be nice but im not sure they're gonna sell to us

diaz is a catcher i think

[desert palm]

Randy Arozarena?

[austere lava]

the rays have a couple players i like

paredes or one of the Lowes

im not too high on randy

he's having a down year and im not sure tmobile park is gonna improve that

[desert palm]

His June has been better

[austere lava]

hmmm it certainly has

[desert palm]

I honestly want some of these targets for the Yankees lol

Luis Rengifo would be a fantastic addition

[austere lava]

https://tenor.com/view/angry-cat-hiss-gif-16141788

[desert palm]

Are you surprised? 😂

[austere lava]

aaron judge with 8 bobbleheads batting behind him would be a better offense than my mariners

oh my fucking god corbin burnes is pitching tomorrow

we're gonna get swept

its so over

[desert palm]

Don’t sleep on Miller

[austere lava]

im not worried about him lol, i think he's gonna pitch a quality start

[desert palm]

2 ER 7 innings

[austere lava]

we'll get shut out for 8 innings so it wont matter

[desert palm]

Bullpen holds down

No runs for the Mariners

[austere lava]

you're a prophet

[desert palm]

😂

Could be wrong you never know

[thorn hornet]

@robust grotto 40 mil for Kilman they robbing you blind I'm sorry

[robust grotto]

we dont have english players, sadly, so thats a huge factor in this

and also we let in the most goals last year. CB is needed, even if its a robbery.. not shocked that Lopi is going for his former captain. Zouma and Aguerd will be shipped off

40 mil tho smg

english homegrown captain - @thorn hornet sadly this is the standard

[hasty basin]

Wolves would do this though lol

They need money desparately

[robust grotto]

I dont think a single neutral is giving WHU praise

rip to me

[thorn hornet]

Kilman is limited

But I think Lopetegui could cook something

[short flame]

I’ll be first then

Praise West Ham

[robust grotto]

we have 3 cbs, Zouma Aguerd and Mavropanos. Aguerd is 100% leaving so even with Kilman we're shorthanded there

[thorn hornet]

Tf happened to Aguerd

[robust grotto]

thank you king! its a lot of money though tbh. Kudus is def leaving next summer

[thorn hornet]

I remember him being highly praised when he joined

[robust grotto]

hes so shot dude. mistake after mistake after mistake

got benched and he bitched, refused to play

[short flame]

go for Davinson

[thorn hornet]

So another Ligue 1 dude who gets exposed on big stage?

[robust grotto]

i think we're going after an Irish guy on Lyon. Jake O'Brien. and a player from Hull, Jacob Greaves

[thorn hornet]

It could be worse tho, Leicester paid 15 mil who got relegated with Frosinone lol

[robust grotto]

big time. he has a good leg with stretch passes but man...

no fight in him, he's soft on the ball, and constantly out of place

[thorn hornet]

Bro O'Brien is so good, he fits like a glove

[robust grotto]

nice thats really good to hear. i am hopeful for that

we need to be tougher to play against

[short flame]

I’ll support you either way but it would be better if you had a Colombian in the ranks. I haven’t been able to support fully since la roca left

[thorn hornet]

Nobody expected him to play for Lyon but he was a standout for them, arguably their best playet after Lacazette

[robust grotto]

true! you never know dude, things can happen

[robust grotto]

interesting

[thorn hornet]

He can also score goals

Even though he's a defender he was on a scoresheet regularly

[robust grotto]

now i wish we put 40 on him lol

[thorn hornet]

Palace sold him for 1 mil

Don't expect Lyon to accept anything above 20

What frustrates me the most is that I haven't seen a single Calafiori comp in which he actually plays football

ALL OF THEM ARE THRIST TRAPS

[robust grotto]

Football has been ruined

[thorn hornet]

I'm starved for signings

Euros really disrupted the flow

[dim ledge]

Lost my shirt fishing today

Have had my tits out for two plus hours. AMA

[robust grotto]

Is Kilman for 40m as bad as people are making it out to be

The ones in my town always went off in gym class hahhhhah

[hasty basin]

Man

They tied it

[robust grotto]

Georgia I’m guessing ?

Is this a tournament

[hasty basin]

Yeah

Its qualifiers for

Olympics

[robust grotto]

Fuck me

OLYMPICS THIS LATE

damn

That shit starts in like 2 weeks

[hasty basin]

They're on the left

If you couldn't tell

[robust grotto]

Ayo

[hasty basin]

We started off 16-0.

Idk man

We need to win by 19 too

This is so embarrassing

[robust grotto]

Win by 19?? Why so specific

[hasty basin]

It's by points

The qualifying

2/3 teams qualify from the 3 team group

It's basically GD

[robust grotto]

Dude that’s actually insane

For basketball

[hasty basin]

Yep

There was a story about it

Some team scored on their own basket on purpose

To let it go to overtime

So they could win by more

[robust grotto]

??

That rule needs to die lmao should just be wins and losses

It’s basketball

[hasty basin]

Yep

This is fully the new coach's fault as well

It's funny

When they go on those runs you gotta call a timeout man

Wtf did I say

[robust grotto]

Bro you had a stroke on the keyboard fr

[hasty basin]

😂

This game is pissing me off

They had a shot from deep where it bounced off the basket hit the top of the backboard, bounced on the rim again and went in

Idk what's going on

[celest zephyr]

I mean tbf football is just wins ties and losses rofl

[hasty basin]

There's goal difference

In footy

[robust grotto]

Tournament soccer?

[celest zephyr]

Yeah but what’s the difference between that and point difference

There isn’t any lol

[hasty basin]

That you go to overtime in groups in basketball

[celest zephyr]

That’s just rule set though

There’s nothing that forces them to do so

[hasty basin]

Yep

[celest zephyr]

Idk still the same shit to me

I personally would rather have draws in basketball also

Ot in regular season is fun but a massive waste of time

Hockey ot is just atrocious

Just draw ffs. 3on3 ot is a crapshoot

[robust grotto]

Noo I totally disagree there

[celest zephyr]

Either way if two teams are 2-2 how else are you going to decide

[robust grotto]

Ties are silly in hockey- 3v3 is definitely the best format, I just would like them to add a few minutes to it. Maybe 8-10 max, this way shootout slowly dies as well. But it’s regular season so people need to go home, games can’t go on forever, and 3v3 has shown to end games quicker

[robust grotto]

Yeah I understand completely

[hasty basin]

Who is Brownlee bro

[celest zephyr]

Maybe honestly. I wouldn’t hate 5on5

But idk I see it similar to football anyways where ties happen all the time

[celest zephyr]

The next laker

Old and can hoop

Perfect

Jeanie is whatever. I think she’s just way too embedded in the social and Los Angeles side of things rather than team success which is fine ig, you have to be that way to an extent in a market like LA. I wish she just didn’t get so emotionally attached to things and then in turn act emotionally.

Pelinka idek. Clearly no one is really taking this current Lakers organization seriously and I’m sure other front offices just straight up do not like Pelinka lol

Lebron I still think is the biggest reason things are like they are for the team rn. Think a lot of players are apprehensive about going near all that noise

And they know he’s on his way out

[celest zephyr]

Same with a lot of all time greats tbh

Well Brady didn’t cause a mess but still

It’s hard to go there when the guy who guys want to play with might retire in a season

[rustic mountain]

Brady set Tampa up for success imo

And added a chapter of respectability

[calm mulch]

He might actually be the goat

i can't think of a biggest sport hater/jerker

This man deserves an award

[nimble onyx]

It’s honestly impressive just when you think it can’t get any better

He reaches a new level

[austere lava]

We are so back

[smoky fable]

Let’s go Kenny Paez and Caicedo

[smoky fable]

I’d say he took them over the top. They just lacked a qb and he helped with that.

Also had the devil’s luck against the Rams and almost pulled it off if it weren’t for Cooper Kupp beating Winfield Jr. sorry Buc

[rustic ore]

Fuckin Bowles going 5head and calling an all out blitz when all we needed to do was keep LAR out of FG range

[smoky fable]

Forgot if they got pressure on stafford or not throughout that game without having to blitz

Been a while

[rustic mountain]

I dont necessarily agree

I think the adding of Brady, Gronk (not prime Gronk but still), Leonard Fournette, LeSean McCoy, and Antonio Brown definitely played a role

[smoky fable]

I figured you’d mention that

[granite moon]

Yo

[smoky fable]

Those other additions that Brady helped recruit

[rustic mountain]

I mention it because it's true

It's not like Brady came by himself

[smoky fable]

Can’t doubt it

[smoky fable]

That gronk was still very good

Fournette was impactful then too

[granite moon]

Whats the topic

[rustic mountain]

He was and I mean Shadow still calls Fournette playoff Lenny

[smoky fable]

Brown as well but he went crazy and quit mid Jets game

https://tenor.com/view/antonio-brown-peace-out-gif-24356487

[rustic mountain]

That wasn't in 2020 tho

[smoky fable]

Yeah it wasn’t

[honest umbra]

That was a good throw and catch though

Can’t believe akers almost gave that game up

[smoky fable]

His kick was short on a 45 yard field goal

I’ve never seen that before

Oh that’s gay not akers

[honest umbra]

That was gay haha

[smoky fable]

The fumbles were crazy too

[honest umbra]

Wait a min…

Akers fumbled twice if I recall correctly

Evans beat Ramsey to score one as well

[smoky fable]

It’s the devil luck’s with Brady. I swear. Those fumbles

[honest umbra]

I was sitting thinking it was happening again

But then triple crown winner sb mvp should have been regular szn mvp caught the pass and we hit the FG

Then got gay signed to an amazing kickers contract

[smoky fable]

He did help the colts win against the ravens

Oh it’s bad

injured caicedo (main ecaudorian player) under 10 mins yeah im watching copa

looks like another home game for argentina

FFS WHAT

[sweet tree]

Ecuador looks more dangerous

[dense blade]

SAMIENTO WHATEVER THAT GUY IS SHOULD HAVE SCORED

That’s horrible, they really need to check the states of the stadiums

it's a good save

Kendry??

nah these passes are crazy

[smoky fable]

Spell check messed it up

My bad

[dense blade]

they might actually win

[smoky fable]

Was surprised how the Colombian players were doing well in those black kits against Brazil at Levi’s. It was hot as hell

James in particular

[dense blade]

yeah messi should have stayed on the bench today lol

[smoky fable]

Man Argentina might lose today

[fluid moat]

They’re stinking it up

I don’t remember Messi getting the ball once

[short flame]

We play our home games in worse conditions

[smoky fable]

I see

[smoky fable]

Can’t believe Colombia is playing in az again

[short flame]

We actually had to adapt to other teams

We used to play our home games at noon or 2 in Barranquilla

Now conmebol forces us to wait until it’s 7 or if it’s cloudy

Apparently it was too dangerous

[short flame]

They’re trying to put us down

When are we playing in the east coast like the easy route boys

[smoky fable]

When you guys get to the finals in Miami

[short flame]

Fuck they want Messi to win it in Miami

[smoky fable]

They always did

Or a Brazil Argentina match up

Or Uruguay. Or Colombia.

[short flame]

They wanted any of the 2 big teams against Argentina and for Messi to win it

We’re going to injure ourself before the final

[smoky fable]

Was impressed that Colombian fans outnumbered the Brazilians in Levis

Santa Clara

[short flame]

Trust me we don’t mean anything to conmebol

If they can take us out they will

[smoky fable]

Nah Comnebol sees the amount of Colombian fans at the venues

Or they see the dollars that they’re willing to pay

[short flame]

We always bring crowds and they always screw us over

We’re not valued as high as the 3 big teams

Also the crowd for the Costa Rica game was underwhelming for our standard

DIBUUUU

2 clutch first saves

man he different

[short flame]

Too good

They were good pens, he’s just unbeatable

[sweet tree]

do u rate him now sanjuan

yeah on pens the dude is unreal icl

[turbid axle]

El Dibu,
That is all.

[short flame]

As a pen stopper yes

[sweet tree]

hes a decent keeper

[short flame]

As a human being he’s the lowest of the lowest

But he’s talented

[turbid axle]

Argentinian.
They produced the likes of Simeone and Sorin you know.

I don't care how unseemly some of his antics are.
The man saved them again.

[nimble onyx]

Gg Dibu

[short flame]

Simeone is rough but he’s a good guy, this guy is a racist attention seeker

[short flame]

They work, he’s the best, I simply don’t like the guy and the things he does and says

[turbid axle]

He's a jerk, no doubt.
I don't know about racist though.

[dim ledge]

Mac Allister :)

[short flame]

He said some pretty ugly words towards davinson sanchez, Miguel Borja and yerry Mina

[turbid axle]

To my understanding Argentinian fans themselves prefer that kind of dirty player.
Messi has always been a tad too polite for them.

Remember back when Tevez and Messi were both in the national team
Tevez's popularity dwarfed Messi's in the country.
Even though Messi was supposed to be the bigger star.

[short flame]

Yeah they’re proud of their nasty attitude. They’re very self centred and proud to be. Messi was too kind but they still love him. But they prefer their bad boys, dibu, Maradona

[short flame]

Tevez had all of boca

Messi suffered from not having played in the local league for one of the big boys

[turbid axle]

I'm not condoning any of it btw.
Just observing.
I suppose that's also why they elected the current madman as president but that's another convo altogether.

[turbid axle]

Honestly I preferred Tevez too at the time.

[dim ledge]

Did they announce MOTM yet

[sweet tree]

happy 4th of July to those that celebrate

[turbid axle]

Also isn't anyone going to mention Messi's penalty miss?
What a disgrace.

🤦‍♂️

[dim ledge]

It was mentioned above fosho

[sweet tree]

yeah idk why he tried to go fancy with it

rarely goes for the panenka

[short flame]

[turbid axle]

I may or may not have invented a new curse word for that moment.

FFS.

[short flame]

I’m waiting for bbc

Frionel pessi please

They did it for Ronaldo now Messi

[sweet tree]

atleast he scored the ones that mattered in the World Cup

missing these ain't a biggie

[short flame]

I still celebrated it

[sweet tree]

fairs

[short flame]

Nothing personal just don’t like Argentina

[turbid axle]

Here is my two cents on the old goat:
He should stop thinking that he is a forward.
The whole team, the coaches, the whole damn nation of Argentina should stop that.
He should instead play ONLY like a classic number ten.
Behind the front line.
And he has played like that too in his career.
Like Aimar and Riquelme.
That way he can even perform in 2026.

He can perform as a dedicated playmaker.

[short flame]

Only real #10s can do that role and perform to the highest level

https://tenor.com/view/james-rodriguez-beso-chao-adios-despedida-gif-11599631

[turbid axle]

The man is a genius.
He can pull it off.

[short flame]

Imagine all those players in their prime playing in all the big leagues in Europe (looking at you vinnie), and they still get outclassed by a guy who’s without a team, training from home. James is truly special

[turbid axle]

He has been greatly influenced by Riquelme, Aimar and Maradona himself anyway.

[short flame]

Yeah James is a genius

[turbid axle]

Oi.

I meant Messi. 😐

[short flame]

Yeah Messi is good as well

[turbid axle]

No disrespect to Rodriguez though.

[short flame]

My goat

[turbid axle]

I always liked him.
Even when he played in Real.
(I fucking despise that club.)

[short flame]

As a James fan, so do I. But I do like Carletto so it’s hard

[turbid axle]

How can you not like Ancelotti.

[short flame]

Ever since the Rafa and Zidane days I can’t support real

They ruined my goat

[short flame]

He’s the best manager and such a nice guy, just good vibes and trophies

[turbid axle]

Speaking of personal goats,
mine isn't Messi or Tevez.
Not even Batistuta.
It's JR Riquelme.

[short flame]

There’s a reason he has 7 champions league

[turbid axle]

He's on the same tier as Fergussen.

[turbid axle]

Actually come to think of it Messi is not even in my top five.
He may be the GOAT but I'm talking about personal favorites here.

[short flame]

I think for Argentina my favourites would be Maradona who I couldn’t see live but he just looks so good on every video I’ve seen. The guy played with a magnet
From the ones I saw live, riquelme was my favourite, a true #10 like James and Quintero.
From the current generation I like Messi dybala and specially el papu
But I do hate that cano never made the national team, he’s a special talent

In terms of favourite

[turbid axle]

I exclude players that I haven't seen play at my time.

[short flame]

Ok let me think

Riquelme
Papu
Tevez
Cano
Messi

From Argentina of course

[turbid axle]

Riquelme, Batistuta, Zanetti, Tevez, Saviola.

The latter was the most epic wasted talent in the whole history of football.

I'm still not over it.

[short flame]

I was too young to remember batigol and I do love zanetti but not top 5. It’s weird how I’m a right back irl but I am most critical about players in that position

[turbid axle]

---

As for Colombians I remember Valderrama from my childhood, so he's naturally on top of the list. Then James, El Loco and Falcao in no particular order.

The number five is open for now.

[turbid axle]

Understandable.
Though Zanetti could play everywhere in defense and midfield.

[short flame]

Mine it’s
Teo
Big gap
James
Big gap
Quintero
Falcao
Aguilar

[short flame]

I know but I remember him as right back, he’s probably my top 1 all time. But I still find it difficult to enjoy right backs since I play there

[turbid axle]

I get that.

Too close to home.

Cafu was great too at that post.
Fair's fair.

[short flame]

From my childhood I really liked Valencia

[turbid axle]

Funny. Javier Zanetti is my holy cow.
I can take any criticism, directed at any favorite player.
Messi, Tevez etc.
But not Zanetti.

To me he was simply perfect.

[short flame]

I was going to say something just for fun but I can’t. He’s too good

Ok let me try one

Daniel Muñoz >>>>

[turbid axle]

I don't even know who that is.

[short flame]

Colombian right back

[turbid axle]

I see.

[short flame]

Has 2 goals this copa

[turbid axle]

Oh have mercy. 😆
Well I watch the games starting at 4:30 am
it's a wonder how I manage to understand what's going on.
Let alone remembering the names of all goal scorers.

Insomnia has its perks.

[short flame]

He’s also a very inspirational guy
Fought very hard to get where he is, didn’t get a chance to play until he was 19 and couldn’t play at the top level until he was 21. Never gave up and now plays in the premier league

[turbid axle]

Good on him.

[desert palm]

@smoky fable DBacks Creamed the Dodgers this series wow

[short flame]

Damn, maybe you should go sleep if you’re so lost

[short flame]

Btw what happened to the brewskis

[turbid axle]

Although losing to the Rockies is not ideal

[short flame]

Sorry

[desert palm]

But thankfully everyone else in your division is just not very good right now

[short flame]

Except us

[turbid axle]

I meant the game itself.

[short flame]

Were the best

[short flame]

I was laughing so hard after that game

[turbid axle]

After the penalties my whole body was shaking so violently from sheer nerve wrecking stress that I couldn't even stand up.

It's embarrassing that it meant so much to me perhaps.
Me living in another country in another continent and all that.

[short flame]

Oh my god, I’m sorry to hear

[turbid axle]

Nah it's alright.
I find it hilarious in hindsight myself.

[short flame]

Nothing embarrassing, just shows how much you love the team

[turbid axle]

The teams. Plural.
All generations since 1998.

And yes I do include u23 and u18 too.

I first discovered Saviola, Colochini and De Alessandro (among others) watching Argentina's team in u18 world cup. They won the cup too.

[short flame]

Colochini

[turbid axle]

He was the captain of that u18 team.

Correction, it was under 20.

It was in 2001.

I can't believe it was 23 years ago.

[unborn sandal]

Coloccini

there was a chilean player who was nicknamed "Colocho" after Coloccini, then "Colocho" ended retiring before Coloccini

[hasty basin]

He is paying that in half a week worth of salary

Less than that

I wish they used consistent bans and not pick depending on the player

[hasty basin]

Probably

bellingham earns 30k every hour bro

belligham was on a world tele getting watched by millions of teenages doing unappropriate gesture

[hasty basin]

If Dele Ali was playing quite a far back

[dense blade]

2017

[hasty basin]

So 7 years

[short flame]

All harmful celebrations should have the same ban or none. Choosing depending on the person is wrong

[hasty basin]

I'm guessing a lot changed since then

Obviously

[short flame]

Dele Ali was still playing back then

A lot has changed

[dense blade]

well ig ronaldo this same kind of celebration vs atletico

I don't think Simeone and
