Question 178

Nico O’Reilly gave a brilliant performance yesterday, scoring a goal and winning the Man of the Match award as Manchester City defeated Real Madrid. He has been outstanding for Manchester City, playing as a left-back since his debut. Do you believe he has what it takes to eventually become one of the best full-backs in the world?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[surreal folio]

Maybe

[cloud plover]

He is the best Right Back for England right now so why not

[ancient meteor]

Maybe, he was the reason we conceded so only time will tell

[cloud plover]

Left back*

[tight obsidian]

can def get there will compete for the left back spot for the English NT. I just think MLS is better atm

We'll have to wait and see more from Nico O'Reilly before we can make that claim

[true otter]

No. I think he's a solid enough player on a very good team. I don't think there's anything that especially stands out to be talked about as best in the world.

[crystal tartan]

In potential..... Yes but i need more

[hoary raptor]

Trust me, Tuchel will call him up for the 2026 World Cup squad

Question 181

Which famous player is mostly remembered for one big mistake, and how would people view them if that mistake had never happened?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[trail narwhal]

Karius

[harsh cobalt]

Svilar vs United

[primal pine]

Gerrard slip, a premier league champion

[rare bluff]

Pre-2018 Akinfeev

[frosty coral]

Karius comes to mind first

[rare bluff]

for his 2014 mistakes at wc

[proud frost]

neymar going to psg

[thick sparrow]

Karius ofc, but suprislingly first to come toy mind was kolo muani

[fallen ravine]

Escobar own goal, would still be alive

[raw nimbus]

not just one mistake, but Higuain has become very underrated amongst younger fans due to the mistakes in those 3 finals from him. He was an absolutely demonic striker otherwise in his best years.

[astral kettle]

Gerrard

[peak beacon]

slippy g

[ocean fog]

Araujo 2025 ucl semi final

[winter wave]

Gerrard for that slip/Karius for that throw to Benzema
Gerrard is still established as a Liverpool legend, he just wouldn't be mocked for that one mistake
Karius on the other hand.....that man went into depression bruh

[karmic kernel]

Baggio definitely. To lose on a penalty in the World Cup final has to be one of the most heartbreaking things to happen to a player. If you look at his goal stats after that final, he took a dip in form which is heart breaking.

Still had a solid player overall but probably would have been even better with confidence

[brisk aurora]

Karius

More than one mistake btw + that mistakes is the only reason he is remembered

[dense birch]

randal kolo muani, known for costing france the world cup

[reef obsidian]

baggio like you showed

[dry plinth]

Karius

[junior owl]

Gary Sprake's Mistake (1970 FA Cup Final) Leeds vs Chelsea 1970

[true otter]

Definitely Baggio. He's remembered in Italy as arguably the most technically gifted player they've ever produced. Maybe to younger fans who obsess over trophies over talent, they'd rate him higher had he won the World Cup or more in general.

[alpine ginkgo]

Gerrard's slip -would change how he's perceived if he had won the PL

[jovial crest]

Slippy G 😹

[heady ermine]

Cristiano Ronaldo would've been in my top 5 but now he isn't unfortunately.

Or maybe even in top 3

[dapper basalt]

hmm Probably Higuaín in the 2014 final

before this, Higuaín was rated as a world class striker

capable of competing with karim and ronaldo

so much so that Karim had to wait patiently for his chance because higuain was performing so well

but the final in 2014, and subsequent copa américa final kind of ruined his image

other two that come to mind is John Terry in UCL and Steven Gerrard slip in the prem.

a more obscure pick would be "El Cóndor" Rojas

A chilean goalkeeper, one of the best latinamerican GK to be honest, that cheated and faked an injury with a rasor blade during the 80s in World Cup qualifications

they banned Chilean National Team for two consecutive world cups and he was never seen the same

could have been one of the best goalkeepers in history if he hadnt attempted that fake injury

https://www.goal.com/en/news/i-cut-myself-with-a-razor-i-cut-my-own-dignity---the-goalkeeper-banned-for-life-for-faking-an-injury/16o9dggabd85g12bf1qzwk0eoe Interesting story

[small stream]

TBF prolly zidanes headbut

[winter wave]

Is that really a mistake though

I'd headbutt someone talking smack about my family tbf

[true otter]

Higuain did go on to have ne of the best seasons in the history of Serie A after that though, and then get a big move

[shadow oxide]

karius

[small stream]

yea ik, but even though he is still widely regarded as one of the best midfielders to ever grace a football pitch, the first thing that comes to mind when u think about him isthe headbut, just like how we think about freekicks whenwe hear beckham

[pure rover]

Escobar

[tall bone]

10/10

ankara messi

[gilded meadow]

Steve Gerard against Chelsea

[dapper basalt]

yeah thats true, and his juve transfer was record breaking at the time I think

but his image never really recovered still, specially among argentinians

[winter wave]

[vague saddle]

Baggio easily

Gerard, liverpool would have one the league, rival fans wouldn’t be dragging that moment. But still a liverpool legend forever

Question 182

Fiorentina have lost yet another match, this time to Verona 1-2 in the last minute. Fiorentina is currently in last place with only 6 points, all from draws. What do you think is happening with them? Will they be relegated, or will they eventually make a comeback?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[pine eagle]

yes they will come back to 6th

[sterile helm]

Probably not

[grand flower]

Imo they will make it to 17th or 16th place but hardly

[sterile helm]

Unless they score points against their next 3 opponents then maybe

[shell flint]

i think this is blake's club
don't tell her about this

[dry plinth]

Considering their performance this season, it will be hard to come-back

[tropic lance]

They’re probably going down but I wouldn’t be surprised if they do stay up. They’re terrible though, how are you that low with the players you have? Just baffles me

[dapper basalt]

I think they will manage to stay in the league. The squad has quality. That they are doing this badly is incomprehensible really. But then again, it happened to Sampdoria very recently.

[trail narwhal]

They might eitehr bring a Lyon 23/24 or actually flop miserably.

[umbral pumice]

Vivecovich is right

[tight obsidian]

will def be relegated. But one thing I wanna call out, the fact that people have all of a sudden stopped calling out United for getting rid of DDG to them and hailing him just because they are doing worse is a fucking disgrace and another example of blatant media bias against United

[dry plinth]

So Fiorentina is going down

[tropic lance]

https://tenor.com/view/facts-big-facts-true-so-true-true-story-gif-10768238346551082063

[harsh cobalt]

[fallen ravine]

They won’t get relegated

[true otter]

I'm still leaning towards them turning it around, but time is starting to slip away to not get too cut adrift.

[slim fern]

I say relegation but who knows, anything can happen

[brisk aurora]

They will do both win conference and get relegated

Question 184

FIFA The Best Award was awarded to Ousmane Dembélé and Aitana Bonmatí yesterday. Unlike the Ballon d’Or, which is voted on exclusively by journalists, the FIFA The Best Award is decided through voting from four different groups: national team captains, national team coaches, journalists, and fans. Do you think this voting system is better than the Ballon d’Or, and therefore believe that FIFA The Best is a better award?

<@&1392052021108146207>

Question 186

PSG recently won the Intercontinental Cup, completing a historic sextuple and becoming only the third team in history after Barcelona in 2009 and Bayern Munich in 2020 to achieve this feat. Where do you rank this PSG side among the greatest club teams of all time, considering all their achievements this year?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[frosty coral]

It's not a sextuple

[unborn vapor]

It is

So your saying that you can win a sextuple in each 4 years

[frosty coral]

Bayern also technically didn't do a sextuple because the CWC was postponed

[hybrid dome]

6 or 7th

Somewhere there

Maybe even 5th

[vestal tusk]

Last time I checked Club WOrld CUp is needed for sextuple
and not the Intercontinental Cup

[hybrid dome]

But I rank them in top 10

[mighty fable]

could have won cwc too but lost to CHELSEA 😭😭 anyways idk

[hybrid dome]

Intercontinental cup is the former CWC

[frosty coral]

This is how it works now ig

[unborn vapor]

It is a sextuple in my opinion bc a sextuple is not supposed to be like evrey 4 years is it

[hybrid dome]

• so you say sextuple is eligible per 4 years?

[unborn vapor]

Nahhhh

[hybrid dome]

Crazy right

[unborn vapor]

It's not

[hybrid dome]

Exactly

6 trophies

English teams are eligible to win 7 trophies (septuple) or 8 trophies per 4 years (octuple)

[vestal tusk]

In football terms it's
League title
Domestic Cup
Super Cup
Club World Cup
UCL

Not intercontinental cup

[quasi flare]

Hmm

[hybrid dome]

Intercontinental cup is the former CWC

[vestal tusk]

So If psg won both

WHats that

[hybrid dome]

Septuple

[vestal tusk]

Thats never been done

or?

[hybrid dome]

Yes

[vestal tusk]

In like any sport

[hybrid dome]

I don't think it happened

[raw nimbus]

Intercontinental cup is the old club world cup renamed

[true otter]

I don't know where they rank but they're not in the conversation

[hybrid dome]

But English teams can do it

[vestal tusk]

alr

[unborn vapor]

Check Google

Because if the intercontinental cup does not count that means barca and bayern have not won the sextuple the intercontinental cup is the old club world cup

[raw nimbus]

No
Because intercontinental cup is the old club world cup only

Just with a new name

Old Club World cup got renamed to intercontinental cup
& the new tournament was given the name & branding of “club world cup”

[thick sparrow]

4th/5th

At heart 1st

[brisk aurora]

a ligue 1 team cant be in this debate

Question 189

Nick Woltemade scored twice against Chelsea FC in Newcastle United’s 2–2 draw this weekend. Do you think he has what it takes to become a world-class striker, or was it just a standout performance?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[jovial pagoda]

I think he does have what is needed

[steel vapor]

yes

he should just play at united to achieve it

[narrow atlas]

Don’t think he’ll ever get a world class status but he’ll float around it

[trail narwhal]

He is definitely going to be world class.

[chilly oxide]

Lowk could start at any club [EPL], just not for; Liverpool, City & Brentford

[thick sparrow]

He is world class Striker for 2 years now

[chilly oxide]

(maybe i missed out on someone)

[lime lagoon]

just a shit calvert-lewin

[frank oriole]

he def can achieve more as a player.

[shadow oxide]

he can be bigger

[junior owl]

He is real madrid material

We will soon grab him

[barren spade]

yeahh🔥he has what it takes

[dapper basalt]

I don't know yet. It's too early to say. This could be the next Klose, or a Michu type season.

[tight obsidian]

Needs to be at a proper club like Man United first

[harsh cobalt]

Will be seen as a good striker not world class

[dry plinth]

He caught back his mistake he did against Sunderland

[spare apex]

World class

[slim fern]

I think that Nick Woltemade is really good but needs to take an extra step to become a world class striker.

[heady ermine]

If he comes to barca yes. otherwise no

Question 190

Do you think football should introduce a stopped clock during breaks in play to reduce time-wasting, or would that take away from the natural flow of the game?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[rare bluff]

idk

[junior owl]

That would be interesting though actually

[steel vapor]

what is that?

[true otter]

I think people would be surprised how much longer games lasted if they did this.

[jolly vortex]

It would take away from the flow of the game imo, would go on so much longer in some cases with still some little action throughout too many games.

^^

[harsh cobalt]

No

[thick sparrow]

YESSS

[proud frost]

if varca lose im fine with it

[trail narwhal]

Yes.

[small snow]

time wasting is shithousery shithousery = entertainment

so no

[crystal tartan]

Ofc

[shadow oxide]

yes

[haughty blaze]

Yes absolutely they should it is a good solution to the issue of time wasting as we do not get huge 14 mins extra time and players would know time wasting is pointless as it is automatically not counted rather than up to ref discretion

[reef obsidian]

no as it ruins the flow and if there is ever a cinematic game timewasting or not then a break would ruin the adrenaline and such

take lyon vs utd, if they were losing before the comeback and had a break then they wouldn’t be in the europa league final

[paper egret]

no

[crisp glacier]

we gonna see 3 hour games

but I don't enjoy time wasting either

wouldn't mind

[dry plinth]

Sure, the other sports do it, why not doing us so ?

[raw nimbus]

Matches will go on for too much longer if it happens

If people are willing to sit down extra then sure😂

[tight obsidian]

If you want 2 hour games then yes

[serene cosmos]

as a referee, NO!
Why? We already have futsal

[hollow remnant]

Yes

[soft skiff]

Definitely

[slim fern]

That's a good question. I would say yes to reduce time wasting.

[ocean dagger]

I think it should stay, just more exiciting when ur team scores in added time or when your team scores when the others were time wasting. Time wasting should stay

football shouldn't be like other sports imo

[south night]

I would say so during medical treatment of injured players or var check. If you stop at every little break (free kick, throw in or a foul) you'll end up stretching the game time a lot which will lead to a major increase in injuries. Matches would also possibly go on and take about more than 2 and a half hours from start to finish.

[ocean fog]

it will just be like futsal then

[rapid laurel]

ruins the shithousery we sometimes see at the end of games

[drowsy schooner]

They would take away the flow of the game

People alr don't Watch full football matches now, Imagine if they Stretch the game even more

Question 192

Question 193

This season features just one Boxing Day Premier League match (Manchester United vs Newcastle), instead of the usual packed schedule. Do you prefer having a single standout fixture, or would you rather see the traditional full slate of Boxing Day games return next season?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[primal pine]

I miss the traditional slate

[steel vapor]

single standout fixture

because it's united

[paper nacelle]

[round elm]

No matches on boxing day
Let players rest and celebrate with their family and friends

[thick sparrow]

Yess i miss them

[coarse owl]

I would prefer the single standout fixture this gives other clubs a chance to rest and recover so they can come back stronger for the busy part of the season

[bright umbra]

Full slate

If otherwise that's woke and I won't accept that

At least every other professional league in England has every match on today

[dry plinth]

National team feels more for me. Especially since Venezuela is one those few countries that has produced talent but never seen as much

There are only people who are truly passionate and I love that

[balmy dew]

Club for sure. The USMNT has been dogshit ever since the last WC and have had multiple opportunities to improve things but refuse to. Since then have adopted my parents national teams Mali/Senegal and Mexico but don't really feel any affection for them

Question 195

Rayan Cherki has been amazing for Manchester City, becoming the team’s creative hub while also being the joint top assister in the Premier League currently. Where do you think he ranks among the best playmakers in the world right now, and do you feel he will be one of the main protagonists for Manchester City and France in the coming years?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[sullen oar]

No idea but Dortmund disasterclass for not signing him

[ivory loom]

Yep

[ocean dagger]

he will continue to be one of the best players itw imo, especially with how creative and technical he is. I do not see his level going down unless he gets a injury as for me he is the most talented footballer in this new generation

[ocean fog]

hes great but rn hes not even the best midfielder in city

[proven anchor]

35 m? This is a steal Olympic lyon are nuts for selling him at 35 m

[tropic lance]

He’s a dying breed. He will become great for man city. I just know it, he’ll develop his game but stay true to that classic 10 style, just hoping he doesn’t pick up injuries

[tight obsidian]

hes def one of the best but wdym main protagonist 😭

[magic galleon]

Maybe in like 4 years

[magic galleon]

France's main man

But unless haaland leaves

[haughty blaze]

Absoloutely will be one of the main protagonists for France and he will for Man City as he is absolutely good enough unless he has a dream to play for Madrid or Barca and gets lured away to them in five years or so.

And as for how he ranks worldwide he is one of the best I have seen so up there with anyone

[worthy glen]

He is amazing but I have a feeling he won't be as great for france as he will be for city or future clubs

[lapis nimbus]

@thick current @kindred axle sahin masterclass 🔥

[thick current]

now we have bums like bellingham beier and chukwuemeka 💔

[twin cloud]

Still needs to grow a lot, but deffo will be a important player for both city and France

[dapper basalt]

yes

[shadow oxide]

he can become better unless pep prevents him from doing his own job

[peak beacon]

yes

[raw nimbus]

It's ryan.

He could be good but not

As enzo

[true otter]

His name is Rayan

[thick sparrow]

Yes

[rapid laurel]

maybe

I prefer way more my club

Actually I really don't give a shit to my national team since CBF is a shit

Question 196

Aston Villa are doing really well at the moment and are only three points behind Arsenal. Do you think they can keep this level of performance going for the rest of the season, or do you see them dropping off as the pressure increases toward the end?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[knotty yew]

No way can they keep it going for the rest of the season

[tropic lance]

100% at this point in time anyone who drops points is fucked

[knotty yew]

They’re gonna slow down

[empty tide]

Slow down a bit but i hope they can keep top 4 or atleast top 5

[quick loom]

I say they finish top 4

[fallow rampart]

I call a title race

[dapper basalt]

if we purely look at the squad, they aren't title contenders. They are barely UCL spot contenders. Emery is certainly overperforming, but when doesn't he? If the Gods will it, then it could happen

they have won the hardest matches aswell against big six, those points might be gold later on

meanwhile City or Arsenal will be facing big six

[haughty blaze]

Yes I believe they will keep this level of performance going they have a great manager and good players I cannot see a big dropoff

[tight obsidian]

the system is not sustainable Emery needs to find some kind of solution still because they can very easily be stopped judging from the way they play

only then can they retain their position

otherwise in the long run there will be a fall off

[junior owl]

They ain't gonna shit cause MU is there

[frosty coral]

Either them or City. Just make sure Arsenal never touch that Prem.

[thick sparrow]

Nah no way they'll keep it

[stuck ocean]

really hope they keep it but i don’t think they will

don’t want city to win it cuz they are our derby and arsenal fans if they win it will be unbearable

[grand flower]

There are chances but very very low

[peak beacon]

I think they can keep it up ngl

[twin cloud]

Drop off prob, will finish like 5th/6th

[gloomy cave]

They will drop points

[heady ermine]

Yeah and they can actually eliminate Portugal from wc too

[shadow oxide]

top 4 or 5

[languid needle]

praying on their downfall

[shell meadow]

Yeah i think they can unai is doing really a fantastic job at villa

[crude laurel]

They will finish above Arsenal

[surreal folio]

I say they get to top 5 but I say between of 4 and 5 place

[dapper basalt]

praying on their downfall don't make you religious man

[languid needle]

Im just delulu

[maiden yacht]

No

[karmic kernel]

Once the FA Cup starts and more European competition in Europa, they will suffer

[dry plinth]

They might keep it up

Bizot and Martinez are great keepers

And that defence is also great

[lapis nimbus]

They're dropping in form, there's no way they're keeping it all the way till the end.

[slim fern]

I think they'll slow down a bit later on the season but Aston Villa will more than definitely make it to Europe for next season.

[rapid laurel]

dropping off with the increase competitions coming up

[true otter]

Drop off. Nothing to do with pressure, just the reality of a much smaller squad than competitors while fighting deep in Europe.

Already massively over achieving when you consider Emery took over a team 3 points from bottom, and despite a net profit in transfers has us regularly fighting in top 4 and back end of continental competition.

[abstract storm]

Dropping, I think would be top 8 at best

[winter wave]

Realistically a drop off, but oh boy I hope they win the league man

[grave hawk]

not really

probably lose form later on

[quasi flare]

Question 197

With the year coming to an end, are you satisfied with how your favourite team performed this year, or did they fall short of your expectations?

<@&1392052021108146207>

[knotty yew]

Very satisfied 😭

[median shoal]

Meh

[lean mirage]

wydad are cooking so yeah

[round elm]

Depression

[lean mirage]

juve are ass so no

[surreal folio]

Really satisfied

[hollow remnant]

we lose too many points in stoppage time

otherwise very satisfied

[dry plinth]

Satisfied

[round elm]

this season I satisfied it
Last season DEPRESSION

[dry plinth]

Champions of Europe of course

[naive ledge]

Not at all

[nova pulsar]

Yes
overall barca won 3/4 trophies and have ended 2025 at the top of la liga
only downside is ucl performances not as convincing but things sem brighter at the end of the tunnel

[dry plinth]

How many goals you suffered in PL ?

[abstract storm]

No

[knotty yew]

Plus sextuple, exceeded my expectations by FAR and I don’t think this year will ever be topped for me, glad I witnessed it

[dapper basalt]

Atlético Madrid for now, a little worse than expected, but so far stable. Nothing is lost and we are alive on all competitions.
Milan has overperformed, with that squad i didnt think Allegri was gonna get results, i was wrong. We are title contenders.
And my local, well, no comment.... To segunda after about 30 years in top flight, tragic.

[karmic sable]

Not really

[lusty pumice]

yes

[acoustic shale]

i prefer not to speak.

[dry plinth]

Glad we saw PSG doing so well

[vague saddle]

No, well couldn't have expected more from a mid squad

[dim geyser]

Could have been much better but i’ll take it

[naive ledge]

30 this season alone 😭

[dry plinth]

When People will know

[acoustic shale]
