and xavi's ball control is also some of the best ever

plucky sandal
#

Well…..

#

No

lethal igloo
#

Makes sense.. he has been owning his club always

fiery star
#

modric gets called overrated because of ballon dor

#

but thats it

plucky sandal
#

Ronaldo’s helped out by other things

plucky sandal
fiery star
#

but top 5 mid ever isnt unrealistic

lethal igloo
#

Mate don’t argue with Meel.. he sucks of to Messi so much he will write a whole 438page of essay on why he is the best itw..

Sure? But he’s still better at everything else

skill wise he is

forest tapir
#

Unless you mean dominance on the pitch

fiery star
#

yes

plucky sandal
#

This is like saying Pique > Messi cause piques better at defending

forest tapir
#

Because you make it sound like dominance in general

fiery star

thats what i mean

you can literally watch his fucking games on youtube in the blink of an eye

#

Scores goals in Kindergarten games and calls himself the best

plucky sandal
#

Because Xavi was a dominant player?

coarse hazel
forest tapir
#

Search up the definition of why

#

I just want to know his reasoning

plucky sandal
#

He’s said why

#

Like 5 times

fiery star
# forest tapir Why do u think that then

here's the thing, you can make an argument for neymar in his peak to be better than xavi in his peak which is a fair take. however, neymar is inconsistent, very much. loads of injuries causing him to miss loads of matches over his career, affecting his overall rating for him whereas xavi kept his consistency with great longevity while also having an unreal peak being the greatest passer and best vision ever

plucky sandal
#

He controls the midfield and creates chances

#

better than neymar is at getting the ball dribbling to the goal and scoring

coarse hazel
#

neymar is a much better dribbler than xavi

#

the comparison is almost saddening

fiery star
#

xavi's dribbling is really efficient and has amazing ball control

#

neymar is just better with skills

coarse hazel
#

neymars is that but better

#

lmfao

#

if we're talking ball control neymar is top 5 in the world

forest tapir
fiery star
#

ball control is different than dribbling

forest tapir
plucky sandal
fiery star
#

he misses loads of matches

coarse hazel
#

neymars dribbling is so good because of his world class ball control just like messi

fiery star
#

messi's dribbling is different

plucky sandal
#

Well….

forest tapir

#

no he isn't tf u on about

#

you're a yt compilation merchant

Messi>Neymar>Xavi in dribbling
Neymar>Messi>Xavi in skills

Xavi thought he was gonna be the next Zidane 🥶🥶

-Took Barcelona to Europa League
-Couldn’t win Supercopa
-Signed 4 new players
-Bottled Europa League to a 9th placed Bundesliga team
-Trophyless Season
-15 points behinds Rivals Real Madrid
-Set a new record of 3 losses in a row at Spotify Camp Nou
-Better than Koeman? Worse win % than Koeman after 33Games

Not even better than Frank Lampard

well some years that messi has more g/a cr7 would win due to trophies

since thats a prime factor

#

Ronaldo's main argument against messi is that he has more goals yet messi has a better goal ratio...

tawny scroll
#

well the arguments are this

proud cedar

goals, international, UCL, clutch

fiery star
#

ronaldo's main argument is also he scores in the more important games

tawny scroll

yeah my point, clutch

Internationally Messi made it to the final of the world cup

tawny scroll

what

heavy crest
#

Goals Messi has a better ratio of goals per game

tawny scroll
#

yes thats true

heavy crest
#

I'm not gonna argue against all of it, ronaldo does have ucl and clutch

tawny scroll
#

and also most people would rather have messi in their team as cr7 isnt as good of a passer as messi is

heavy crest
#

but u cant just say "ucl" thats like making messi having more ballon dors an argument

tawny scroll
#

messi is the greatest team player

fiery star
#

yes messi is obviously the better football player

#

the most talented player ever

tawny scroll
#

I say ucl because cr7 holds the reccord for goals and assists and has been a comeback king on what feels thousands of occassions

so most of the african nations representing them in the world cup are not the best

both nigeria and algeria on paper are better than the african sides not named senegal that qualified

There’s just as much talent as there is in South America

Also u guys aren't taking into account that Ecuador could take 2nd place from Senegal in group A

thinking about it, Our football quality has fell down. At certain points in the early 2000s most NTs were as good as now but some main NTs stood out very very higher than the others

the problem with african countries is the fa's

On another important note, do u guys think that southgate will select Nketiah for national team?

African club football is also underrated

he won't

Or will he go to Ghana

subtle plover

probably ghana

if he wants to start

HE should go to Ghana

if he wants to sit on the england bench his entire international career then he can pick england

urban remnant

England in general is rarely the best place to go for dual nationals

proud cedar
urban remnant

#

Imo Nketiah has potential to be better than Kane

subtle plover
#

yeah he won't even make that

urban remnant
#

Owen Hargreaves was probably the only major example where choosing England over the other option (canada) was the right call

subtle plover
#

nketiah scores 2 goals against chelsea and now all of a sudden he might be the next kane

urban remnant

He would have been a massive aid for Canada but we'd still be in the wilderness

nkeitah is just average honestly

Nketiah wouldn't even be selected

Honestly if you want an example of why Nkeitah should not go with England, you need only look at that guy who choose to never be used for England over being a mainstay for Canada

I would have said tammy abraham made a mistake not picking nigeria but I reckon there's a chance abraham gets on the england squad again

though he will ofc be a backup

With the year Tammy's been having for Roma he better be considered

5 subs was a really good addition.

back to what i was saying before...

that'd be 26 from our squad

No

Only raphina

no way he'd be in our squad

but i was wondering if he had a chance with spain

cus that'd be another brazilian to the tally

#

If Ukraine makes it there'd most likely be a few Brazilians in their squad too

so like

we'll have at least 30 brazilians in this WC (assuming FIFA goes ahead with increasing the player limit to 26)
