[oblique warren]

sommers fault

[solid dagger]

Do you like gangster movies

[noble fractal]

I only picked bucks bc giannis plays there their logo is cool though and their mascot is cute

[plush jungle]

I'm going to get lost with who is a fan of who

[nimble onyx]

shouldve been a clean sweep really

[fringe tundra]

Yo I just rerolled is ts aight

[nimble onyx]

Yamal had plenty of chances

[solid dagger]

I did too like 7 years ago but I'm sticking with them even if he leaves

[tender hornet]

My only other viable option is celtics and I dont really want that

[frail berry]

Just be a bandwagon

[solid dagger]

Definition of mid team

[hasty basin]

That's actually

[plush jungle]

Bulls dang

[hasty basin]

Painful but

[tender hornet]

NO

[nimble onyx]

yes they actually have a future

[hasty basin]

Good to support

[fringe tundra]

What if I wanna be a glory hunter bro

[hasty basin]

Um

[noble fractal]

boring

[solid dagger]

Celtics

[plush jungle]

Then support the Celtics

[hasty basin]

Yeah

[plush jungle]

I need a pin with everyone's teams for all sports

[solid dagger]

Or OKC, get ready for the dinasty

[tender hornet]

I've been accused of being a bandwagon so many times for supporting the Philadelphia eagles and man city I refuse to support the celtics

[plush jungle]

I'm getting lost here

[nimble onyx]

Uh somewhat of a future

[noble fractal]

when I started watching footie my team ead at risk of getting relegated

[fringe tundra]

Ngl I'll refuse to glory hunt

Bulls it is

[plush jungle]

Nice

[solid dagger]

Bro is a masochist

[nimble onyx]

Buzelis and Coby are nice

[noble fractal]

glory hunting is for the weak and cowards

[plush jungle]

Can't be worse than being a raptors fan

[tender hornet]

That one wolves player is really cool tho

[solid dagger]

Which team do you support?

[tender hornet]

I think wolves is the play here

[plush jungle]

Yeah i refuse to pick a team that just won a chip

[fringe tundra]

What about Milwaukee Bucks tho their jerseys look fire

Ill choose tonight

[plush jungle]

Time to be my nemesis for next round then

[noble fractal]

vfb stuttgart, a german team

[tender hornet]

Weren't they good like, one or two years ago

[solid dagger]

Their second best player just tore his achilles and their greatest player ever (arguably) is probably leaving in the summer and they have no picks

[tender hornet]

I don't really follow german football

[solid dagger]

Ohhhh yeah right I forgot

[frail berry]

Thank you for endo 🙏 🙏

[plush jungle]

I don't either

I barely watch football. It just happened to be on

[noble fractal]

yeah they finished second and above bayern in the league last year, but around nid season this year they fell off and now they are like mid table

[solid dagger]

I can't even open Instagram since every post is about this shit game

[noble fractal]

at least we got the cup going for us

[plush jungle]

Hahahaha rip

[tender hornet]

This was NOT a shit game

[hasty basin]

This ucl has been so good

[plush jungle]

Barcelona fans in tears

[nimble onyx]

maybe the Knicks because of OG

[hasty basin]

Absolute peak

[solid dagger]

It was

Worst game ever

[noble fractal]

just go to manga and start a mihawk> dhanks debate to distract yourself

[plush jungle]

You can thank the raptors for him

[nimble onyx]

we all complained about the new format

and we got this

[plush jungle]

I gotta watch more next season

[fringe tundra]

Yo I actually dont mind then

[solid dagger]

I will still complain, it sucks

[hasty basin]

Yeah it's been dun

Fun

[plush jungle]

Especially with a dazn sub

[noble fractal]

dw about it I'm the only on here who does

german second league is the funniest thing ever

[plush jungle]

Only know about Leverkusen going nearly unbeaten last year

[solid dagger]

They got more fans in attendance than almost every other top european league

[noble fractal]

u wouldn't believe half the hijinks going on there

yeah they are insane

have u seen their choreos?

[plush jungle]

I gotta find a way to watch rofl

[solid dagger]

They're so dedicated yeah

[noble fractal]

they put prem league to shame with their performances

[plush jungle]

The best team is called hamburger

Now what

[plush jungle]

Now you watch the playoffs

[noble fractal]

no pls

[plush jungle]

Knicks play the Celtics

[fringe tundra]

yo bet whens that

[plush jungle]

Tomorrow 7pm et

[nimble onyx]

I think either the Bulls or the Knicks would be solid choices for you, both have great history in the league and have pretty international fan bases

[plush jungle]

Basically 25 hours from now

They already went Knicks

[fringe tundra]

I'll go Knicks

NY close to London

[solid dagger]

Knicks have crazy fans

[nimble onyx]

good choice they are still in playoffs as well

[solid dagger]

And a terrorist coach

But they're a great choice

[noble fractal]

eh new yorkers

[solid dagger]

Did you see how they celebrated after the game 1 win?

[plush jungle]

So 12 am your time on the 8th

[frail berry]

Any Philadelphia team fan

[plush jungle]

I haven't honestly

Philly also

[solid dagger]

There should be like an excel spreadsheet with all the teams each #sports user supports ngl

[plush jungle]

There should be

[solid dagger]

@torn gale

[plush jungle]

But I can't keep up with it right now even

[frail berry]

Bros name 😭

[solid dagger]

He's a MASSIVE Eagles and sixers fan

[plush jungle]

I'll say my teams: leafs raptors warriors blue jays 49ers Manchester United

[solid dagger]

He also never loses a bet

[fluid moat]

Yeah Inter are winning the UCL

[solid dagger]

Why two NBA teams

[plush jungle]

Brother lives in sf

[fluid moat]

I never want to watch this sport again

[plush jungle]

And I live in Toronto

[solid dagger]

Oh nice

[fluid moat]

I have absolutely 0 faith in both Arsenal or PSG to beat them

[solid dagger]

I wasn't thinking about it and now I'm depressed again

[solid dagger]

Inter will play the final as the favorite team

[crude berry]

Psg and dembele has the chance to do the funny

[fringe tundra]

Barca got no chance of funny

[crude berry]

Please 🙏

[crude berry]

😔

[solid dagger]

Barça had a chance but they conceded a goal from a 37 year old center back at the 90'+7

[fringe tundra]

Inter vs PSG 🙏

[fluid moat]

They’re against two teams that have never won it

What did we do to ever deserve this

[crude berry]

Who was the guy that slipped

Fuck that guy

[solid dagger]

To be fair no player on Inter's team has won it either

But they're better than both psg and arsenal

[frail berry]

Then be a hater it’s so much fun I’m telling you

[noble fractal]

nothing funny about giving the ucl to qatar's government

[nimble onyx]

But Mbappe

[plush jungle]

I already hate the Seahawks

[noble fractal]

mbappe lost wither way

[plush jungle]

And the bruins

Oh and the habs also

[noble fractal]

he can loose again next year

[crude berry]

We let the most corrupt club win it 15 times so it's fine

[nimble onyx]

but its funnier this way

[crude berry]

😭

[frail berry]

Nah bro

PSG Madrid final

They win it on his head

[noble fractal]

true but they are out now

also objectively speaking the funniest thing to happen would be for arsenal to spank psg tomorrow and bottle the final

[crude berry]

With trent on the rb next season, their defense will be paper

😭

[frail berry]

Nah wdym

[torn gale]

Grrr

[crude berry]

Can't wait to score 10 goals in the next el classico

[frail berry]

You mean the team that is currently struggling defensively is still gonna struggle when they add the most dribbled past defender

No chance

[plush jungle]

What bet did you lose

[noble fractal]

honestly I'd be worried about barcas mentality for el classico

[ripe yacht]

Trent is gonna go into the midfield with carvajal coming back

[crude berry]

😭

[noble fractal]

madrid will take advantage of that

[crude berry]

Bro's legacy is only gonna be fa cup if it comes true

😭

[plush jungle]

As many as ten haag

[frail berry]

3 peat 2nd place 🤩

[nimble onyx]

has he even played midfield at Liverpool?

lmao

[frail berry]

Sometimes

[solid dagger]

A player who doesn't track back on defence playing as a midfielder, what could go wrong

[frail berry]

But was very rare

[ripe yacht]

Better than having him as your rb 😭

[solid dagger]

I think he played a couple of games at least

[noble fractal]

arteta found dead in his house after June 1st

[ripe yacht]

He played in the midfield for the euros as well i think

[frail berry]

Think for England he played midfielder

[solid dagger]

I don't think that's what RM needs but they're gonna go for him anyway

[nimble onyx]

oh yea I remember

[nimble onyx]

it will be on a free tbf

[ripe yacht]

I think he'll lowkey cook in a pivot with bellingham

[solid dagger]

He wasn't even a starter

[frail berry]

I hate this style that rm are doing

Trying to get players on a free

[ripe yacht]

Ik but he can still play that position

[solid dagger]

It's gonna be on a free in the sense that RM won't pay Liverpool but they're gonna give him a huge sign in bonus

That's how free transfers usually work

Mbappe got well over 100M iirc

[frail berry]

Bro

We just watched one of the greatest semis ever then having to watch arteta ball tomorrow

It’s so cooked 💔

[crude berry]

My money is on anyone at this point

As long as madrid doesn't win, life is good

[solid dagger]

Please PSG/Arsenal save football

🇮🇹👏 Francesco Acerbi is 37-years-old and that was his first ever European goal. What a moment to do it. 🤯

Until the age of 22, Acerbi played only in the lower tiers of Italian football. Look what it meant to him.

barca top team got beaten by unc 😭

[sweet tree]

araujo should be shipped to saudi

[hasty basin]

Brother inter is unc fc itself

[sweet tree]

put in utter disasterclsss when he came in

[hasty basin]

I told my barca friends when he came on..

[sweet tree]

actually quite true

[hasty basin]

But I was told it would be different this time...

[dusk lion]

maybe if they sold their players, we wouldn't get them on a free transfer

just saying

[hasty basin]

That's why I kinda like them lol

[dim ledge]

Are you a moron?

[hasty basin]

It's a very different way to approach footy

[dusk lion]

how is what i said moronic?

[dim ledge]

The fact that you have to ask quite literally supplicates it

You clearly have no idea how your own club does business

[frail berry]

So Madrid don’t try to get players for free but because clubs don’t sell their players they just go to Madrid

😭

[crude berry]

If barca wins the next el classico, 1 more win is needed to secure la liga

😔

Hopefully we cook them

[dim ledge]

"Maybe Chile shouldve sold us their copper so we didn't have to junta them"

Embed fail

You lose

[dusk lion]

well done nerd

[dim ledge]

Maybe go back to whatever it is you do well because this clearly isn't it

Delete your other messages while you're at it too. Save yourself the embarrassment

[frail berry]

You can’t tell me that Madrid don’t talk to players and try to convince them to not sign for their clubs so they can sign them for free

[dusk lion]

LMFAOOOOOOO

just noticed your pfp

no wonder you're raging

HOLDDDDDD DAT

[dim ledge]

Who's raging lol

[dusk lion]

[dim ledge]

You're unironically coping because you got called out

Seethe

[dusk lion]

called out for what? you're mad cos trent left you on a free

[crude berry]

What is even happening lol

[dim ledge]

Nobody is mad, you're trying to make a stupid point lol

[sweet tree]

brother 8 30+ year olds played for inter this game

insane

[dusk lion]

you attacked me instead of answering a question

[hasty basin]

Lmao yeah

[dusk lion]

you're clearly raging

[hasty basin]

They're so old

[nimble onyx]

holy

[dim ledge]

You deserved it and you didn't ask a question

[hasty basin]

It's a complete flip on modern footy

[dim ledge]

Not everything is raging just because you got called out

Assuming English isn't your first

[hasty basin]

Their youth teams are u28

[dusk lion]

dry your tears mate

[dim ledge]

But maybe reacquaint yourself with the term

[dusk lion]

they won't bring trent back

[nimble onyx]

lol

[dim ledge]

You, again, have no idea how your club does business

You did this exact same thing with mbappe and you're on about "lmao should've just sold him to us teehee"

[hasty basin]

Now barca have to focus on this not turning into a whole disaster

Secure the league

[nimble onyx]

Madrid is the only club I can think of that can pull that off

[crude berry]

Need to beat Madrid and 1 more win

[dim ledge]

It's because UEFA lets them

Does it surprise you that the person spearheading the usurper to UCL is the president of Real? Lmao

[crude berry]

If madrid loses to barca, the best they can get is 84 pts

[dim ledge]

"If"

They're ass lmao

[crude berry]

If they do win their other fixtures lol

[crude berry]

True

But you never know

Arda is balling

[frail berry]

Against the bottom half of the table

[crude berry]

😭

[dim ledge]

If one man could carry the entire team then they would still be in the UCL

[nimble onyx]

The club and their fans are a match made in heaven

[dim ledge]

They aren't because their front 3 is as compatible as one piece fans and reading

[frail berry]

Every Madrid fan I've met is on the lower end of the spectrum

What spectrum that is, I'll leave to you to decide

🤭

they've been saying ts the whole year and we're still trophyless

This mf really thought he deserved bdor lmao

[noble fractal]

IQ it is then

[burnt cedar]

@dim ledge you seen Alvarez links

[dim ledge]

Yep

[burnt cedar]

You happy?

[dim ledge]

That's been a long rumour that's finally kinda materialising. Doubt it happens though

Hell yeah he's class

I loved him at city too

I thought letting him go was fucking stupid as hell

[crude berry]

^

[burnt cedar]

Feels really weird for Atleti to let him go

[crude berry]

Real

[burnt cedar]

Guess he wanted game time

[dim ledge]

I'm sorry wait

They're letting it happen?

[crude berry]

Athletico is letting him go??

I thought he was pulling a Bellingham and bringing an argentine in from Tottenham?

[nimble onyx]

No chance they let him go

[robust grotto]

I’ve only met one via work and he was a total juicehead - “ I’LL BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU RN” type of guy

[nimble onyx]

this is much more likely

[frail berry]

Nunez 😭 😭 😭 😭

[burnt cedar]

Simeone that insane to let it happen

[dim ledge]

You don't say!

What a shocking turn of events!

[crude berry]

Athletico is mini argentina at this point

[dim ledge]

Oh, well...yeah idk lmao

[crude berry]

Barca need to offer a blank check to alvarez... on God

[dim ledge]

This isn't much to go off of

[frail berry]

Dude I would PAY atletico for then to take Nunez

[burnt cedar]

Nunez can be the Cavani Simeone never had

[robust grotto]

He got fired for getting aggressive with… a customer …

[dim ledge]

Did he say that Vini didn't deserve bdor or something

[robust grotto]

Lmfao ten plus years ago so something Ronaldo related

[honest umbra]

guys it’s been long enough

[crude berry]

Dreaming the day alavrez is in a Barcelona kit

😔

[honest umbra]

I have recovered from being mad at the game

[robust grotto]

FATEINI MY BOY

sorry about Rob Blake

[hasty basin]

Every single real madrid fan I know is an elitist

[honest umbra]

rob Blake deserved to be fired

I’m not sad about that

[robust grotto]

Okay good lol

[honest umbra]

they should have fired the coach too

[hasty basin]

They're the first people to root for superleague

[robust grotto]

I hate the trend of former players being GMs now. I think it stinks

Anyway go off fam sorry to steal your thunder

[dim ledge]

Because they know it'll be rigged in their favour lol

[honest umbra]

Barca game was so fun

[crude berry]

😭

[honest umbra]

but just sad we couldn’t defend for 2 more mins

Sommer was easily the best player in that match

[dim ledge]

Idk

Dumfries did really well

[hasty basin]

Yeah but Sommer just saved them so many times

From basically like goals

[honest umbra]

Dumfries took advantage of our awful LB

bg just being physical

[hasty basin]

Not even near goals just goals

[smoky fable]

Martin?

[honest umbra]

Sommer actually saved insane goals

Yes I hate Martin

And ur gonna tell me he got 2 assists

[hasty basin]

Dumfries is really good at playing against high press

[honest umbra]

I’m gonna tell u he gave up 5 goals on his side in the leg

[hasty basin]

Sexy cross tbf...

Maybe he should play a little further up?

[honest umbra]

I would have done anything to have kounde and balde involved

[hasty basin]

I don't think he gets the whole high line thing well lol

[frail berry]

Is there any club interested in him?

[honest umbra]

U know what’s funny is he’s known for being offensively limited and defensively solid

[smoky fable]

The black magic Real Madrid have every time

[frail berry]

He could go for a pretty high price ngl

[hasty basin]

Pool could be

[dim ledge]

Too old to command a very high price

[hasty basin]

Since Trent is gone

[dim ledge]

He's 29(?)

[hasty basin]

But I think he stays

Around there yeah

[honest umbra]

Dumfries ain’t gonna command a high price now

[hasty basin]

I think he is 29

[honest umbra]

He’s working in a niche system in a niche matchup

[dim ledge]

Yeah I doubt he leaves. He's blossomed there

[hasty basin]

My question is

[honest umbra]

He plays well against Barca, he won’t do well against ATM

[hasty basin]

Why should he leave inter

[honest umbra]

that’s the kinda player he is

[hasty basin]

I just don't know lol

[smoky fable]

Damn I didn’t know Dumfries was close to 30

[honest umbra]

yea he has no reason to leave

[hasty basin]

Amazing coach...great success recently

[honest umbra]

but tbh every time I watch him (Dutch games, against Barca) he is the best fullback in the world

so what is he doing rest of the time?

[hasty basin]

I don't know how to say thjs

Without people getting mad

But uhh

Being shit

[honest umbra]

Yea I figured

[hasty basin]

Every single game I've seen from him in serie a

Ok every single is kinda crazy

But most of them

[honest umbra]

We make shit players look good 💀

[hasty basin]

It's nothing special

Thing is he never faces a high line in serie a

[dim ledge]

Dumfries isn't shit c'mon lol

[hasty basin]

No one plays a high line there lol

[honest umbra]

Yea he played super well against a niche team

He was perfect against us

[hasty basin]

He's very very bang average for inter standards in serie a

[honest umbra]

But I assume he wouldn’t be the answer for most regular serie a games

[hasty basin]

He's their best rwb though so there's that

[solid dagger]

He's been relatively mediocre the whole season

He turned into Cafu vs Barca

[dim ledge]

That's a far cry from shit

[honest umbra]

Because we have a guy named Martin

[solid dagger]

He's not a bad player tho

At all

[honest umbra]

Also I’m beyond defending Araujo now

[hasty basin]

Well not anymore

[honest umbra]

Bro was awful today too

[dim ledge]

If he's halfway decent that's all he needs to do when they have 3ATB and is in a very niche position

[hasty basin]

These 2 performances mean more than anything else

[dim ledge]

Though to be VERY FAIR, RWBs are increasing

[hasty basin]

It depends

[dim ledge]

As are LWBs

[honest umbra]

Yea I could care less tbh

He destroyed us

[frail berry]

TWENTY NINE?

[honest umbra]

And he should be happy for that

[hasty basin]

Wingbacks are very prevalent in some systems

[frail berry]

i thought bro was like 24 😭

[solid dagger]

They have Dimarco on the other side as well so they're fine lol

[hasty basin]

Did you see where Acerbi was in that last attack lmao

[noble fractal]

almost an unc

[hasty basin]

Dimarco is so good offensively

[solid dagger]

If you notice when they build up the play the midfielders and the center backs often switch places

[hasty basin]

Yeah

[frail berry]

ive heard enough send him to man utd

[solid dagger]

If you look at Bastoni's heatmap you'd think he's a winger

[hasty basin]

That's why they played Bastoni lwb and it worked

Who was it against again?

[frail berry]

and his career drops off

[hasty basin]

It was in ucl ro16 I think

[honest umbra]

I saw a lot of one two with bastoni starting in their line and he would continue the play running up

[solid dagger]

I think so yeah

[hasty basin]

Bastoni is really special though

In debates for best cb in the world

[novel slate]

all aboard the pacers bandwagon 🚋

[dim ledge]

Nah lol dutch players have this weird ability to not really show their age

[solid dagger]

He's #1 rn if you ask me

[hasty basin]

I still have vvd at one

[dim ledge]

Is he their LCB?

[hasty basin]

Sorry

[solid dagger]

Yep

[dim ledge]

Based

[solid dagger]

That's completely fair

[hasty basin]

Italy has some exciting cbs though

For sure

Scalvini Mancini Bastoni

[solid dagger]

We have arguably the best defence in international football

[hasty basin]

Cala was great last euros as well

[dim ledge]

Italy always produces well at the back

[solid dagger]

Donnarumma in goal

[dim ledge]

Including goa

[hasty basin]

Yup

[dim ledge]

Yeah

[hasty basin]

Crazy defence

As always

[dim ledge]

Unironically

Netherlands probably right after

[solid dagger]

Tonali and Barella in the midfield as well

[frail berry]

konate and vvd gotta do extra work for a certain player who wont be named and unfortunately a washed robertson

[dim ledge]

🤷‍♂️

[frail berry]

🤔

[burnt cedar]

Just need a real striker

[hasty basin]

I love Tonali as an anchor

[solid dagger]

Who do they have in goal?

Is it the Brighton keeper?

[hasty basin]

As THE defensive piece

Yeah

I don't like Bijlow over hom

Him

So yeah

[solid dagger]

Im happy to see him thriving

[dim ledge]

Verbruggen, Timber, VVD, Maatsen, Frimpong

Very very nice backline

[hasty basin]

It will fit Italy perfectly

[solid dagger]

Great backline

[hasty basin]

Attacking fullbacks and Tonali drops back into like a back 3

On attacks

[dim ledge]

And then you got Dumfries too

[solid dagger]

Dimarco and Cambiaso

[solid dagger]

De Vrij is also still decent

[hasty basin]

Just need Kean to be that guy for a while

[burnt cedar]

I’d rather Dumfries at rb than Frimpong

Frimpong more suited as a wing back

[hasty basin]

Frimpong isn't a rb in my eyes lol

No chance

He's more of a winger than a right back

[solid dagger]

He scored a brace vs Germany

[amber grove]

Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) on X

🚨🛑 Hansi Flick: “Every 50/50 decision that the ref had, he called it in Inter's favor. This makes me sad”.

X · May 6, 2025, 10:22 PM

[solid dagger]

But it wasn't enough sadly

[burnt cedar]

Netherlands also have Givairo Read who will be rb long term

I’m surprised he’s not linked to Liverpool

[solid dagger]

I'd see him as a winger in a 4-4-2

[hasty basin]

Read is amazing

(Cooked in my fm save)

[burnt cedar]

Bodied leao in the ucl

[dim ledge]

Defensively yee

[burnt cedar]

At 18

[dim ledge]

Netherlands generally are very exciting atm

[solid dagger]

The amazing feeling when the wonderkid you scouted in career mode/FM makes it in real life

[dim ledge]

Biggest problem is midfield probably

[burnt cedar]

Alex Scott and Adam Wharton used to run riot for me

In front of them

Desire Doue

[solid dagger]

Who do they have besides Xavi Simons?

[mild thistle]

Was the refereeing actually biased I missed the game

[solid dagger]

De Jong and?

[burnt cedar]

Tijani reijnders

[solid dagger]

What a player

[solid dagger]

Oh yeah of course lol

[burnt cedar]

I like Reijnders a lot

[dim ledge]

Their midfield isnt bad, just...unproven?

[solid dagger]

They also have Koopmeiners but he hasn't been great this season

[amber grove]

In my opinion no

[solid dagger]

(he's been terrible)

[dim ledge]

I guess forwards are a bigger issue aside from Gakpo lmao

[hasty basin]

Stop calling up Brobbey

Please

[solid dagger]

They have Zirkzee

[hasty basin]

He's the worst player I've seen

[burnt cedar]

Netherlands will unfortunately never produce a striker better than anyone pre 2010

[dusk lion]

[burnt cedar]

They had there time for 30 years with world class strikers

[dusk lion]

ref was decent like what

[burnt cedar]

Enough is enough

[solid dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/netherlands-can-vanpersie-soccer-gif-10252053

[mild thistle]

Fair enough I get fans complaining about refereeing but when coaches do it I get interested

[burnt cedar]

Huntelaar as his backup

[dim ledge]

What a goal man

[burnt cedar]

They’d kill for even half of them

[solid dagger]

Best header ever

[dim ledge]

And they had Sneijder behind them

[hasty basin]

Huntelaar very underrated

Goes under the radar a llt

[solid dagger]

Schalke legend

[hasty basin]

Bas Dost 👀

[burnt cedar]

Schalke saved him

Huntelaar just couldn’t make the step up to Madrid or Milan

[mild thistle]

It was a World Cup goal right?

[burnt cedar]

I don’t know why as well

Had it all

[solid dagger]

Yep, 2014

Netherlands 5-1 Spain

[smoky fable]

Koeman wouldn’t call up Memphis again would he?

[mild thistle]

❤️ van persie

[burnt cedar]

Van Basten, Bergkamp, Kluivert, Hasseilbaink, Makaay, Van Nistelrooy, RVP and Huntelaar is just not fair

30 years of having strikers like that

[dim ledge]

[solid dagger]

Van Basten man

3 bd'ors at like 28

[dim ledge]

Van Basten would have been the best striker of all time

There is nothing you can do to convince me otherwise

[burnt cedar]

Tbh I still think R9 surpasses him

[solid dagger]

He's an even bigger what if than R9

imo

[burnt cedar]

As he was also injured

[solid dagger]

Easily imo

[burnt cedar]

Both if they have an injury free career R9 just beats him

[solid dagger]

He arguably is still

[dim ledge]

It's very very close imo

[hasty basin]

No ucl kinda makes me iffy about r9 but yeah

[solid dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/van-basten-marco-van-basten-holland-dutch-ac-milan-gif-21252866

Insane

[dim ledge]

I don't hate pipping R9 over him

But it's close

[burnt cedar]

When he was breaking through in Europe it was harder to qualify for the ucl

[solid dagger]

Van Basten is legendary

[burnt cedar]

By the time he got to Madrid his body was done

[hasty basin]

That team was meant to be special

[burnt cedar]

It shouldn’t be held against him

[burnt cedar]

Just on paper

The depth was horrible

Madrid were starting Raul Bravo cb

[solid dagger]

My friend's dad watched both of them and he always says Van Basten is the best striker he's ever watched

He's a Milan fan tho lol

[burnt cedar]

He’d have said the same if Romario played for them

[nimble onyx]

France.

[mild thistle]

Wow how is this even possible

[burnt cedar]

There’s one game I watched of Romario and I couldn’t believe what I was seeing

[dim ledge]

good shout

[solid dagger]

No one has an answer for that question lol

[burnt cedar]

I think Gary Neville said he was the scariest player he ever came up against

[dim ledge]

yeah fuckin

van basten man

him and r9 for sure the top 2

easily

[burnt cedar]

Yeah I’d say so

[solid dagger]

ngl I have Suarez in the top 3

[burnt cedar]

I personally don’t have Suarez higher than Henry

[hasty basin]

I view him more as a winger

[burnt cedar]

I don’t even think I’d have Henry top 5 tbh

[solid dagger]

Suárez between 2015 and 2019 was unfair

My goat will forever be Mandzukic tho

[hasty basin]

If we are putting Henry we are putting Ronaldo too imo

[burnt cedar]

Henry didn’t spend much time out wide

Only at Barca he did

[nimble onyx]

Gerd Muller...

[solid dagger]

Ancelotti was playing him as a left back at Juve...

[burnt cedar]

We done with the 70s

[burnt cedar]

Luckily he got saved

[nimble onyx]

fair

[hasty basin]

Won't forget the bicycle

[solid dagger]

That's my favorite goal ever

[burnt cedar]

Only joking tbf im not gonna judge guys who I’ve not seen much off

Same as Pele

[mild thistle]

Henry left back?? 😭

[solid dagger]

Never screamed so much for a (club) goal in my life

[burnt cedar]

For like half a season ancelotti had him there

Gave him the number 6 too for some reason

Looks so bad

[solid dagger]

Just cursed all around lol

[dim ledge]

Van Basten, R9, and......idk. Di Stefano probably

[solid dagger]

We done with the 50s

[dim ledge]

i dont need this from you parmesean boy

[burnt cedar]

Di Stefano playing for like 3 nations

[solid dagger]

Puskas is my goat 👴

[burnt cedar]

Make your mind up bro

[dim ledge]

Puskas, Stoichkov

[hasty basin]

Dixie Dean was the best footballer

[dim ledge]

Klose is so lucky he stat padded in 2002

[mint hull]

Salah bdor btw

[burnt cedar]

Was hoping Muller could break the record

But I guess Mbappe will

[mint hull]

Nah

Not at all

[solid dagger]

Dembele for ballon d'or

Absolute cinema

[burnt cedar]

The guys line 5 goals away

He’s got at least 2 more world cups in him

[mint hull]

Arsenal will win

[hasty basin]

Dembele could win it

If Inter wins the ucl

[solid dagger]

Thuram...

[hasty basin]

Honestly cwc might come into play

[burnt cedar]

Inzaghi

First coach to win it

[mint hull]

Thought you meant most goals In a single tournament

[solid dagger]

He was a pretty decent striker back in the days

[burnt cedar]

Nobody’s breaking that unless they expand to the tournament to the whole world playing

[burnt cedar]

Wasn’t he a cm

And his brother a striker

[hasty basin]

Chill

[mint hull]

He got 1 penalty goal for France in the euros

[solid dagger]

His brother was definitely a striker

[mild thistle]

😭 ig he can win the African cup

[solid dagger]

Now I'm not sure if Simone was a striker

[burnt cedar]

I assumed cause he was 8 he was a cm

[hasty basin]

Inzaghi was so weird

His goals man

[solid dagger]

He'd have half his goals if he played with var

[hasty basin]

It's so genius and weird a the same time

[mint hull]

[hasty basin]

Owner of one of the best statistics ever

[solid dagger]

WC legend Ochoa

[burnt cedar]

And even then he was just okay

[hasty basin]

All first touc goals

Yeah now Mexico has to rely on

"Jimenez"

[mint hull]

He was class on his day

[hasty basin]

An inconsistent goalscorer in the prem

[mild thistle]

Is Diego Forlan considered a goated striker?

[solid dagger]

There's another Giménez

He plays for AC Milan

[dim ledge]

https://tenor.com/view/greek-charisteas-euro-2004-champions-gif-17110197

I know who my goat is

[burnt cedar]

For Uruguay yeah

[hasty basin]

Yeah well since he moved...

I mean

[solid dagger]

Not goated but he was world class at his peak

[burnt cedar]

I probably could name 50 strikers better than Forlan easily

But he was still good

[dim ledge]

Suarez>Forlan tbh

[burnt cedar]

Nothing against him

[solid dagger]

Cavani and Suarez alone are better

[burnt cedar]

Yeah

[solid dagger]

And they're both from the same country

[mild thistle]

For sure Suarez was insane

[hasty basin]

A lot of strikers like that

For 2010s

Remember that one Gameiro season?

[solid dagger]

Probably the best generation of strikers

[burnt cedar]

But tbf in this era where merino is one of the best strikers in the world Forlan would be up there

[solid dagger]

There were so many class strikers

[hasty basin]

Lmao what was even going on in footy

[solid dagger]

We haven't even mentioned Agüero or Higuain

[burnt cedar]

Good

[solid dagger]

Griezmann if you count him as a striker

[hasty basin]

Uruguay had Cavani and Suarez up front

[solid dagger]

Higuain disrespect won't be tolerated

[hasty basin]

It's so crazy how they improved from that by combining the two

[solid dagger]

Diego Costa

[hasty basin]

Now they have Darwizzy

[burnt cedar]

Before them it was Saviola

[hasty basin]

My boy Kashia owned Diego Costa

Seen enough

[solid dagger]

Lewandowski of course

[hasty basin]

And most of the time forced cavani out wide just to fit him Suarez and Forlan in

[mild thistle]

I am trying to think of German strikers

[hasty basin]

2022 Benzema was a carryjob

[burnt cedar]

A goal scoring winger just doesn’t hit the same as a striker for me

[dim ledge]

Lord Bendtner

Messi and Ronaldo ruined the game we loved
