it has to be messi ribery and suarez
everything else sounds like a compromise
From a teambuilding perspective
you'd want a good left foot, and messi is the best one
so that spot is just taken
2nd row prime ribery clears
Neymar would be a good shout, and i dont think itd be necessarily worse
but ribery was more clinical imo
body feint dribbler like Messi
Suarez at 20 is like
If you don't you're coping lmao
Suarez isnt debatable
Hey
at all
yeah
Nothing yet sadly
Suarez>Lewa>Aguero
especially if its all of their primes
Would anyone choose Robben?
Robben next to messi and ronaldo is an instant loss
Henry back at the top @50 and then Robben down and I take Robben 10/10 Times
robben and salah shoulda been 2nd row
and first row shoulda been mbappe
and i actually do mean it
The only 100000% is Suarez imo
Yep
i guess you could pick Ronaldo ribery and maybe Lewa
because lewa would feed ronaldo balls in counter attacks
ribery as well
Im just saying lewa had better playmaking ability imho
and claiming the ball
holding it
imho in his prime at specifically that, the best ever
football highlights, football, football skills, football respect, football freestyle, football goals
Fucking silly
suarez prime was nuts
if he held that class for 5 seasons people'd be comparing him to r9
Give me mainoo and the 10 Spanish players
And start Carvajal
Majority are wrong but
Youss in sports 🤨
I'm taking Kane over Morata
Not because Kane is good
But because Morata has been...yeah
Memerata
yeeee
The thing is doen like
This list is weird
Because everyone fits
Except Henry
You know who should've been there
My goat....my king....
THEN we'd have some changes
If there's one player who was a better striker this last gen than Luis Suarez
It is Zlatan Ibrahimovic
ronaldinho cr7 messi 50
ribery robben suarez 30
lewa Henry and Ibrahimovic 20
that would be interesting
Cause whenever youd go for messi first
you wouldnt pick robben
That’s tough because on one hand you have the 2 best players of our times
But then I’d have to break off robbery and I can’t do it
Give me that Bayern front 3 and have muller right behind
I want my team to win
Me id probably go for Cr7 Robben and Henry
cause the pace would be unreal
I still think of Robbens cut and scores
He's already called up too late 
Maybe I'm very biased towards Ney
Loved Ribery too
Was the first football kit I ever got
Neymar is definitely not significantly worse than ribery
i think if you said you prefer him
i wouldnt even bat an eye tbh
MSN
Barca
i think ribery is so selfless that it just works better
he always put the team before himself
In that aspect I think Ney was fine but the money
neymar quite a bit of a showoff
The money is what took him
ribery would dribble past 3 people
Some je n'ais se quois
That's the other thing
neymar would tunnel vision onto goal
now that in itself aint necessarily bad
there are players like prime hazard
where it works
but neymar wasnt that guy
he wasnt that good
Ney was getting around the same amount of assists as goals for Barca
That 3 year period was his "prime" for me
15 16 17 I believe
Made me feel like he was top 3 in the world
I believe he was 3rd twice in bdor rankings
Well in that case
I'm taking those 2 over him
me too
but only due to bias tbh
i just love robben ribery
that hazard wouldnt be justifiable
but if someone else picked id not even comment it as a bad choice
its just a shame that his prime yrs were wasted in chelsea

suarez at liverpool has some unique aura
sorta like falcao in atheltico madrid
Diego forlan was also a fkn baller
athletico spawned some insane striker talents
lol
Ranger Suarez (Phillies) Watch out
@celest zephyr what teams do you go for?
Also welcome to the server!
I can count on one thing:
Bless Zack Wheeler
Yeah I love Wheeler. I like Castellanos too but but boyyyyy is he inconsistent
Do you know what would happen if he were consistent?
Exactly
I’m ready to incur the cost
QOTD
I will say that this year it doesn’t seem that the prospects are gonna be potentially generational
However, you never know in a few years from now we’ll find out
That’s usually how it goes
Guys like Paul Skenes are the exception
Btw i must admit my offense is insane as I have freeman and Ohtani but
Marcel Ozuna man
That mf
Your fantasy team is loaded
Just not at pitching
I don’t know how you got away with all those guys
I picked up Nimmo for nothing lol
Just got lucky with some holds
Shot
Chaser
My offense is fucking stupid lmfao
@hasty basin
@short flame
https://x.com/mlbtraderumors/status/1812504959612600423?s=46
The old man gets to be with his family again
Expected lineups
To be fair, he did his job
The only one that's remotely interesting is Le Normand over Nacho but he played the whole tourney so
He was a gap for the pitching prospects
What is assignment
Basically, he’s officially released
the picture you sent before with the combined 11 had navas over Carvajal
Kyle Walker could bring a pillow and sleep on the pitch and this fucking gaptooth bitch would still pick him
It's English media
Who should play instead of him
If you're playing a 3ATB does it matter
He has no place in a 3ATB
That nonwithstanding he's been awful and you know he has
How we feelin'
For England
United against terrorism, i'm reciting half of the bible in prayers for Spain to vanquish the enemy. AKA England
the heretics will fall
His recovery pace is the main reason he’s still in the starting xi tbf
https://x.com/mlb/status/1812552545191285108?s=46
Guardians are first place in the American League ATM and the Reds are currently in convention for a wild card spot. This is the magic of the draft lottery back in December.lol
You don’t remember that tackle on Gakpo last game
Yes the once single thing he did

I'm sure all the media will be talking about that tackle on Gakpo last game
I was happy when you told me we had signed Dallas and now he’s gone. Didn’t even last much at the club 
I would want England to win it but Spain deserve it as they’ve been the best team in the tournament
Only he could recover and make that tackle
That was game saving
"only he could do this hyper specific thing and therefore he belongs in the starting 11"
Wow
Gakpo isn't even that quick so like
Are you unironically sure only he could do that
Or are you just posturing
Slightly but my main point is that he has the recovery and pace that’s why he’s kept his spot
This england team, if anything, deserves to be arrested for crimes against the eyes of everyone watching them play
back 4 passing for 95 minutes until the inevitable Bellingham tap in
Bellingham has barely even done shit
Take away the Slovakia game and he's been as absent as half the team
They do but they made it. I don’t like the team or the players, but it’s my duty to support them
Bar the central defenders, Pickford, and Mainoo no one has really been consistent
Because the team is playing hyper defensively
This is the only time in history you will ever catch me cheering for the same team Carvajal is playing
i swear to god
Do you think I'm picking walker out because he's a city player or because he's struggling with the duties that is literally the style of the team?
I can understand half the midfield and forwards struggling to play defensively
Walker masterclass :
I can't understand that for walker who's literally a defender
And you telling me "oh but he tackled Gakpo" isn't going to take away how dross he's been otherwise
World class, best fullback in the world, deserves to start
I have better technique than Walker
I am very intelligent
Yes
Because trip doesn't start
Evil must be defeated today
Walker always starts
Want to talk about trip? Sure
He's been shit too
But at least Southgate drops him when he's shit
😂
Good job missing the point. I'll be here when you get it
Trip doesn’t have pace that’s the thing and he hasn’t been delivering on what’s he’s supposed to be best at
Set pieces
What does blud even have to trade ?
Doesn't sound like an appealing offer for the gods
Watch how Walker locks down Williams
Wow. What a genius insight
Are you purposely missing my point 
You have yet to understand that walker should be dropped lol
One to talk about "missing the point"
"but but but everyone's been bad :( please stop insulting my king Kyle walker :("
I gave you the reason why he hasn’t been dropped
I never said he shouldn’t be dropped
Walker is clearly not used to do what he is doing at the English team, but that is, in my opinion, all the more reason for him being overrated right now
THATS WHAT YOU GET KIMBREL
At least someone gets it and isn't coping
LETS GOO

It's insane that what he needs to be used to is....defending

That pass back to Pickford was the funniest thing I've seen
Yk what you got it man
That's literally the issue with him right now, he is clearly awkward having the ball at his feet as much as he is having it right now
Never seen a defender being so terrified of the press before
You’re a Barca fan?
Surely his pace and recovery will show that he deserves to start 🙏🏼😔
Neymar called him the toughest defender he had to go against, does that mean he is the goat ?
Because Southgate refuses to change his formulas
Anything to do with that Ramos lock?
Literally anyone who's watched England play in the past few years will tell you that
Think it's to do with more than that
I feel like these last few years Pool and RMA face each other a ton
And uhh the outcome
The players don't seem to care as well, never seem so much talent being wasted before at the same time
They went from a 4 back to a 3 atb, Mainoo earned a staring spot, he moved Foden from the left to the middle
a third of the team is not playing football at all
they just there jogging
I really like the player but that lock was a tough thing to watch. It looked so painful for Salah
I know a particular player in that third
He moved Saka to wingback
Ik
Sure
Saka got moved
Saka hasn't been amazing
But that makes sense because he's being played out of position and given a role he doesn't know
Walker is supposed to defend and move the ball and is struggling
It was just in his brain to play like that
Could have been an amazing player nevertheless
You guys won 11 to 5 against the A’s yesterday
You only play them three games. It’s not big deal.
And you're convinced he continues to start because hes actually good at that and not because Southgate has favourites who, irrespective of how shit they've been, he refuses to swap
I don't think quote on quote "Foul merchants" would ever find success
Saka is at his best when he has like a little bit of an advantage ahead of his defender, if you give him a good pass he is strong enough to carry the ball up and assist
And you're telling me it isn't you posturing as a city fan
They’re playing back pass football. It’s so boring
Saka is probably one of the most sneaky strong players

Yeah I know, not a big deal at all lol. I think it’s just because it’s the A’s
in contrast, Spain's strategy is faking attacking through the wings and then skipping to the MIDDLE
Meant to reply to
The other one
Fair lol
i already like them better right now
Any team that dares to attack through the middle is cooler
I do hope the A’s get their geography sorted out one day
Eh that anger is part of why he was so good. He was dirty but I don’t think he would have reached the heights he did if he was soft. But still that moment with cuadrado was one of the lowest moments of my childhood
Not softness
Remember the red card on Cuadrado
Lol
Am I mistaken or does it seem like A’s fans aren’t crazy about Vegas
Comrade
They lost their raiders to vegas too lol
Oh shoot that’s right
i was born in the Neymar era and it's has been 10 years of the biggest "what if" story in the world cup scenario. I wish i can live to see a good brazilian team win something again
I mean if they move to Vegas I’m sure the new fans will be from Vegas, the current fans aren’t relocating the team is
We are about to waste Vini Jr's prime as well
I remember 
He doesn't need stuff like that
Yeah true. I think I just saw some doomers going on about it
Yeah I tend to forget this lol
That is rough having two teams migrate away from you
I remember watching that match
Not even a Brasil supporter like that and I agree. Would be good for the health of the sport
Absolutely loved Ramos at that time
And when he did that
It made me cringe and felt ashamed lmao
One thing that will never change is that the Raiders have great uniforms
I think changing his whole personality changes the quality of his game
He's excellent on the ball
As a CB
Hence why he was a RB
I haven't forgiven Ramos for the Salah incident but I acknowledge his greatness
Everyone knows that shit was on purpose
Fuckin asshole
Ramos is tame compared to pepe
Pepe is a gypsy so
He’s excellent in every aspect you need from a centre back and shows up in the crucial moments. I hate what he did to cuadrado, I just don’t see him reaching the heights he did if he didn’t have that nasty side of his
chiellini with the trophy
That back line was scary
I think
It’s time for some history
Dinho and Messi somehow survived them
Different stuff in football
Intentional fouling isn't aggressiveness in terms of football
Oh maybe more nastiness
Dw Balkan
Lmao
Is it bad that I genuinely don't give a fuck who wins
Any team besides England
Nope
Nah the boo was so loud
It's too bad Yamal is so arrogant 
Love chiellini, love the bbc+ Buffon juve team

An absolute warrior
Aura
The English crowds here are booing
they'll fall asleep soon, i wouldn't be too concerned about them rn
SEND HIM VICTORIOUS HAPPY AND GLORIOUS
Funny how a player can be a warrior without being a dirty pos
Played a very different fun football compared to everyone, won every match, scored a lot of goals
Idk man
Lunik stop this Bowen bias 
BOWEN 90TH WINNER I HAVE SEEN THE SCRIPT
hope olmo scores

and yamal
hope spain crushes them
and also I’m somewhat of an Anglophile I just appreciate their history
I need Mikautadze golden boot
England haven't won in 60 years
Kane is starting... it's over
I was here chat
I want England to lose but I want Saka to win
Glory
CAM ONNNN
Wait what
First time in Euros history teenagers are playing against each other?
In a final*
Seems weird idk
Good afternoon folks
Who’s the other teenager?
I want Spain to score so we don't see the boring ass england
Mainoo
Pretty close to my prediction
Oh how old is he?
19
"We play for pens 🤓"
southgate special
Oh he’s young as well
Not going to happen


Great recovery by walker there 👏
Nico Williams might be my favourite Spanish player
I love speedster dribblers

Difficult choice, would probably go Carvajal. He’s what I aspire to be as a right back
England know how to sit back well tbf
It’s taken them this far
It’s just boring
Yeah but this Spain chemistry
Greece did this better with 1/5th the talent
Yawn
I just wish they had more creativity the few times they go up
Against better opposition too
This ain’t looking good innit
Barely stared tho
De La Fuente gives his players freedom
Feel like a LOT of managers
Could take a page out of that
Tbh it wasn’t looking good even before the game started

Just like Lorenzo tonight 

I will be there no matter what

I hope he doesn’t get scared by the threats
Good job walker
Damnnn
Nice block
good block by stones
LOL
Bale
Ayy
Walker injured

Bale after carrying a god awful nation every tourney:
Got sent to shadow realm
Great recovery
Duel with De la Fuente
Great ball recovery by him
Holy
Oj
Playing TAA?
Nah
Best he can do is CM
Hell give him a crutch and tell him to carry on
Think I might be a minute behind
LMAO
Wtf do you mean Trippier

Good job Southgate
I like how literally everything I said
Came true in a matter of 13 minutes
There’s trippier
Shaw can play cb
Sacrificed his body for this game
NIGEL NIGEL NIGEL
Trippier at LEFT WING BACK
He's played there before with varane
Owari da
Is the main issue here man
Bellingham's ass better deliver
Oh dear
We’ll see
All respect Guehi has done bits
He's still gonna get ballon dor so it does not matter
He's literally mctominay with pr lmao
Well
Look at foden waiting there lmao
Oh good chance there
As soon as that Birmingham thing happened I knew that I will not stop hearing about this guy
What a shit corner
If only they had a player who could do that
What in the world
Ohhhh I see now
England has ball 😴
💀
🤭
that rodri block
Yeah
both teams going at it
You know what this means
Kante is too
Trent lost his spot to Mainoo but he could’ve had him at RB when he played the back 4
This is the game they lose
Some players just shouldn't be in Saudi
Doesn't play a back 4 + never played RB under Southgate. Stick to city Ty
Ospina 
That’s only because of Walker and Trip
There we go
You fixed ur stream?
I'll never understand
Why Pickford is consistently beat by outside the box shots at club level
And nobody tries them Vs him internationally
Because he'd be more effective at skateboarding atp
I don't even like Saka like that but I feel so bad that he's being forced into rwb
This is sickening
Kyle walkins getting the winner tonight 
You like him more than Foden tho
Morata what the
Not hard + I dont terribly dislike Saka
morata is shit on the ball
Ok idk wtf is going on
Bro we have no backup RW
20 ball handling
England just gonna keep drawing fouls
LMAO
I might need two beers
Carvajal 
I have a new opp today
Welcome to the club
Lolol
WHAT
SHaw might have been the key
Kane booked
Lmao
Are you joking?
Was that not a hand on his head pushing him down??
mainoo is good
From the angle I saw, no
However that could be the case
He showed up 
57 passes completed
LMAO

I’m watching legally 😳
England can't even do their terrorism passing here
Im sorry how is that a yellow card
Kane goes into his ankle
It's silly
But
How is that a foul even
Don't worry bro we are not the feds
Yep
It's been given for less
It gets given
Yep

Looks like it tbh
whats that young pplayers name
Fun stuff
Yamal
he needs to score a banger
bring this game back to life
Morrocco wanted Yamal and they got Brahim Diaz 😭
That was funny
Pickford pls
iniesta!!
Guehi has been englands best player
The name Brahin is lit though
Today maybe yeah Guehi is the standout
But this comp it's been Mainoo
By some distance
Olmo Yellow
morata really couldn't play it off to olmo
Makes sense
this brother
Yeah that's uh
needs to be incarcerated
What are these yellows
That was all rib no ball
Tf is Pickford doing
That was a true yellow lol
Maybe a foul not a yellow
Joe Gomez before Trent
Gomez warming up 

I'm not sure about this one Gareth
You lot are like 20 seconds ahead
Bellingol
He’s probably not sure either
When was the last time Gomez even played
This has only been 33 minutes?
Please kill me
Corner Spain
I heard a “fuckin hell”
Umm
Yo
Interesting
Laporte brought down
Okay...
What’s happening
Hell naw
Rice suplexed Laporte in the box, no review
Oh yea just saw that
Kane stinks my goodness
Solid 47 seconds behind issokkk
WH sold Rice at the right time
"Right lads, good half. More of the same"
This euros blows
The top goalscorers have 3
I hate it here
Blame own goals
own goals 2024
fr
Almost 40 mins with 1 shot 0 on target
morata when I catch you...
Remember guys, if England lose it's because of Saka, Mainoo, Watkins and Guehi
But if they win it's because of Foden, Kane, Stones
We need another Williams Yamal overload
All things considered
yamal cmon dawg
Kane slow bro
Williams has been the standout
jude honestly been decent
Agree
What a recovery from walker
Get out the half 0-0
morata

i dont follow football that closely anymore is he a good striker?
No
Sometimes maybe good sometimes maybe shit
Oh my
Bad brain fart there
I remember Laporte on France lol
Kane that needed a shot straight away no time to stop it 
spain is nore likely to score first
2nd block from rodri
Yeah lool
Not much angle but at least he’s shot the ball
Couldn’t handle walker 
foden with the attempt
Great half
Impressive

Can’t forget that
Decent half so far, needs a little bit of spice
Snoozefest
Tbf nice on Foden for even getting that on target in that stretch
We are going to pen
bruh this half was not it
Sleeping pill
Yawn
You know what sucks about this euros
These are the types of match that people who hate footy
It’s been higher than the average euro game I’ll give it that
Describe when they tell us why they hate footy

Precisely
You take this, as England
Actually good that Kane has a card
That was a slow first half
They’ll have to pull him
You have the most talented squad in the euros and you "take" a 0-0?
It’s cured my insomnia
Bring in Toney
Yeah, 100% I don’t see why they should sulk
are finals ever good tho
Yep
it's been like this for a while
Good on Guehi and Stones btw great half from both but like
yes
WC 2022
finals are usually cagey
The fact that England's highlights have been their centre halves
finals are usually good
That was great
Lmao
France vs argentina
that's like the one exception
spain vs netherlands in 2010
Tonight
Liverpool v Spurs, my favorite final ever
BLEH
DONT REACT LAUGH EMOJIS 
Nobody told the dipshit to commit a penalty 2 minutes in
But dull
Hahahahahah fucking moron dog
God that was … just an awful game
Was the trophy worth it?
they've been really good
LMAO
Southgates England
People would be in hell right now
Park the bus - Mourinho
You know the answer
You guys have never watched your club play 5 ATB against Burnley and it shows tsk tsk
IVE BEEN IN THE TRENCHES
I'd commit football genocide terorrism if it means I'm guranteed a UCL
Yes
I have……
If Southgate is Bin Laden then Moyes is Pol Pot
damn i cant spell for shit today but its ok
Terrorists both
Welcome
Hahahahahahahahahahahah well said
But my terrorist got us a trophy. Nigel Thornberry …. Not sure
I don't even want to get another beer
Southgate is Ashley and Kane is Homelander
I'd be wasting it on this awful game
you’ll fall asleep hahahahahah
Alfa deserves better
Expresso time
Lol I'm not staying up for that
LOL
That'll be like 03:00 here
:)
Honey you aren't as old as me

Bless your heart for doing it but
How many Colombian
5
LOL
They're against Argentina!
all 5 
Penalty for Argentina
😭
This just screams a Joselu winner
Him or Bowen
BOWEN 🦅 🦅
LMAO
Let's be real
Bowen isn’t playing, I know
I don't think Southgate knows Bowen exists
😂😂😂
The best spot for Bowen is where Saka plays
I just can’t see that change happening
So many unused players
None for de Paul though
Spain won 2
Then found out what the rest of their players could do in the 3rd match
Now De La Fuente is using that to his advantage
Perfectly knew what to do when Pedri got injured
Yeah I mean he was one of the best for Spain
pedri being played to recieve the ball with his back behind the goal was never gonna work, he needs to be the one passing it
This guy sucks
but yeah olmo fits better in this # 10 like role
Olmo is good
I despise Olmo deep down
