It’d be hard but
who
No one is buying Depay
.
At all
30-40 isn’t a lot
It is
ok give
Nobody is buying godamn memphis depay for 40 million
30-40 is a lot for Depay
It’s really not a lot
His not worth that much to the club
Isn't he like 30?
He is worth 25 max
I thoughtrt he was 29
Nothing more
He is 28
who else are barca signing
Still not worth more than 25 million
Hes worth 20
Arsenal will buy lewandoski aguero di maria araujo and win the europa league
besides that kid from racing
He has 1 year left on his contract
and de jong
That takes off like 40%
@charred mantle
yeah only lewa is the only good player from that
8-2
Arsenal overprrforming btw
Barcelonas squad planning is awful and doesn't make any sense
he would do better than auba tho
Their squad isnt that good on paper
What does that mean
hes not a technical player
Why should they buy lewandowski, like it does not make any sense
busquets is still better, barca never try to get a real replacement for him
They don't need a striker
he isn't
Kessie is close to world class
He was finished since 2021
FINISHED?
They need a good coach first of all and a new defense
Lewas as good as Benzema
Hmm
yeah eric is so bad man, i always get pissed how lucho has his barca bias, it is killing us in NT
RW Market is stacked btw
If you think xavi is a good coach, I don't know what to tell you
Dembele leaving wont be as much of a blow
What makes him a good coach?
he isnt all that btw
barca would be wasting their money again
That makes him good? He is above average
He was one of the best forwards in Serie A?
would get exposed in laliga
Barcelona following the trend " Hire club legend as coach -> fail"
oof
Chillout man
What did he need to do to be a good coach in your opinion?
Where is the connection between that and xavi not being a good coach?
what can xavi do with this ass squad, he did fine imo
What worked??!?! You lost in Europa league, got no trophy
Atleast he managed UCL football
yeah barca all they wanted was 2nd, winning uel was like a bonus
They didn't want to win the europa league
Top 4 is really important
What kind of reasoning is that?
It helps the financial state
What a horrible fucking excuse 😭
With the revenue
Thats an odd excuse
xavi destroyed us at the bernabeu ffs
isnt turpo arsenal man
he aint bad
Yeah😭
Barca should try and survive a couple stages
One game does not mean anything
he tryna gas it up 😭
Imagine ever admitting your rivals are the best in the world 😭
he had a good run of games tbf
Every coach has a good run once in their career
i feel like its too early to say hes a really good manager
Dont have to be deluded to not big up your rivals 😭
Fuck you talking about the best team itw is real betis
even when we won 3-2 for supercopa, barca really challeneged us and they had an even weaker team starting forwards like luuk and having abde and jutgla off the bench
gotta watch xavi for at least a few seasons before coming to a decision
but for now
he’s good
hes done well
Ole better
ugh fuck that guy, thank god we sacked him
Got kicked out of champions league group stage = good coach
Ur dumb
today we just won our second game after his sacking
wouldnt even be in ucl next season if they didnt finish up top
terrible coach
if u cant do well in ucl u need to do good else where
which is what xavi did
FOR NOW hes good
His teams have usually been painful to watch.
but u can only come to a decision in more seasons to come
He is above average
That’s why Flamengo have sacked him very recently.
What else you expected with that squad?
good is good
with an average squad, its pretty impressive to put 4 past atletico, napoli and ofc madrid
Crazy that xavi isnt the best manager in this photo
xavi by no means is a bad coach
i would consider xavi to be not good if barca didnt finish top 3 but they did
so
hes not bad
Who said that he is bad?
youre indirectly saying it
Make it out of the group stage and not getting humiliated in europa leavue
how tho
he just got here
lmfao
Im directly saying he is above average
xavi with this average squad had a good run, imagine him with a world class squad. id honestly be fearing them
If he won one game he would have made it out of the group
Beat Barca 3-0
bro thinks this is fm 22😭
Because Marc van Bommel surpasses all!
Nope, you just overrate coaches because they have one good run of games
❌
he's overrated but not bad
When did I say he is bad??!?!
i said he is above average
He’s not even in the photo
he had two ucl matches and one of them was against bayern, that wasnt an easy task especially with the quality barca had. against benfica they had no end product as depay showed, how is it xavi fault that his players couldnt finish, they dominated that match from start to finish but couldnt score
Tbf i didnt care enough to look
even im a rma fan and i rate xavi as a coach
Above average for a new coavh is not underappriecating him, it's praising him
what do u think about rangnick @clear lichen
Is good at building projects
villareal on demon time in european compeitions lmfao
as a manager
Yada yada Van Bronkhorst better manager
Depends on what he has to work with
There goalkeeper let them down
ya sometimes he pops off sometimes he doesnt
i mean
they didnt do well this season right
Yeah they didn't
so would u say hes a shit manager then
No?
Rangnick isn’t shit
He just couldn’t take control
I think Rangnick would’ve done better with Ronaldo
Without*
as a rma fan, i do genuinely think xavi is good, just give him a proper team not with these bums like pique (although hes been decent), eric, mats, depay etc and get some good players, but ofc your issue isnt so well so you gotta wait few years to acc make big purchases again, but i do think barca will be back
👍
Ragnick and the new manager both play football contrary to a player like Ronaldo
Or Zlatan
Ronaldo should retire in the mls tbh
rangnick also isnt a bad coach, its just united arent a serious club either
ya i dont like ppl blaming him wont lie
he cooked france with austria
france is doing so poopoo
he got what he wanted from his players
Rashfords career should be over, if he does not play good football this season
no one plays for the badge except liek 3 players
i really thought they would press
but no
they didnt
so what can my boi rangnick do
lmfaoo
They pressed sometimes and played well
just gotta pay the players less
But other times they barely even moved
Should get rid of washed players like rashford, maguire, wan bissaka and mctominay
i dont see united getting fixed untill they dont pay their players less
too much money is bad
paying flops who start
bags
on bags
Atleast Elanga is playing good football
at that point they dont care about the club
ya fs
And sancho at times
they also should try to sell cr7, they cant be relying on him
go outside
sancho been like their 3rd best player
MY BOII
Ronaldo has hurt the team
They can’t try other systems
Because the system HAS to fit him
When the prem is high pressing league
And Ronaldo doesn’t press!
thats what ive been saying
Like I said ronaldo should retire in the MLS
cr7 has been one of united best players but yeah i do feel he fucked them over too
u need to press my boiii
but cr7 fans cant cope
He should go to Hertha Berlin👍 😭
come to besiktas
Messi and Cr7 last dance at hertha berlin🙏 🙏 who says no?
bad move by united to try to make a system around cr7
big L
its like us making a system around suarez liek what
lmfao
I dont think they tried to make a system around him, they just put him there and expected tto win😭
i think united failed to understand that no player is bigger than the team
at least imo
its a team game
yall acc won the league, so it worked
u win as a team
fair play
didnt make it arund suarez tho
this year was our worst year under suarez
they gave me hope
like so bad
i mean
under cholo
not suarez
lol
it was a disaster this season
and we still managed to beat united
😭
should start cunha and felix from next szn, those two would cook together
i think thats what its gonna be
cunha is so saucy
same with correa
Cunha the ex hertha berlin player😍 😍
hard to choose
He was so good at hertha
hes rlly good, just gotta improve on finishing
itll eventually come
like with vini
ya gonna take some time
But he always had temper problems and was a ball hog at times
talent is clearly there
he didnt do that here
finishing will come along
Yeah but he was at hertha
i remember cunha during the olympics, him and antony were fire ffs
broo so good
cunha when he came on as a sub for us
scored like 90% of the time
crazy
Hertha is not a serious club, thats why he could do what he wanted
i woke up at 4 am to watch brazil play in the olympics ffs, was worth it i saw magic from them
hes back now
yup
cunha was mediocre at hertha berlin lmao
No he wasnt
cunha really talented tho
he was a good player still but he was playing on a shit club
he can be really good soon
Yeah he was good
still young
How do you contradict yourself in two sentences?!?!
cunha was good for pertha psc standards
cunha would be a great supersub for us at qatar, its hard to put him in starting xi
ya as a super sub dudes a demon
Can't do much there
but he deserves to start for us at least
We beat you 3-0 in that season, chill out
if not brazil
We even beat Leverkusen with Klinsmann😭 😭
lodi i would love back at NT, ill forgive him for that mistake he did
love him
he is still one of our best LBs
that's when pertha psc never lost to bayer
alex sandro is finished
broo lodi is so niceeee
then they hired that trash coach korkut
especially against united
holyyyy
dude was on prime time
it was dead ass his first game as a LW
i was like we lost
its not suprising when you have lodi playing lwb, hes rlly good with crosses
but holyyyyy
he popped off
he wasnt even lwb
at that point
he was LW
but tracked back
soemtimes
his defending isnt so good tho
Leverkusen even drew with hertha this season bro... What are you talking about
literally herthas worst season ever
Hertha Berlin are washed
and still drew with leverkusen
lodi gave me hope with his defensive work when he pocketed salah in 2020
Facts
pertha psc defeated dortmund
oooof that game was crazy
u can see how hyped he was as well
making those tackles
lmaooo
bring him back to the NT ffs
i miss him tbh, he was good before copa final
got too much hate
Literally every ref is against hertha
something about them brazilians
hes better than tellass and sandrass
ah yes when all else fails blame the referee
Im not excusing the awful football lol
bro the game after united in la liga bro scored as a LW again
megged the keeper
just too high standards, media here is also very harsh, fuck them tbh
😭
he scored twive
ya
he was really balling
A lot of questionable calls against hertha if you actually watched the games
start him more imo
oh shit
The sad state of Hertha Berlin.
newcastle gonna be stacked
they took trippier from us
and they also want carrasco now
lmfoaoo
Hertha embody the “sign randoms, and pray” culture.
buying the whole atleti squad at this point
Yeah sadly
bruno g and lodi back together ❤️
we were going for rdt
nah
correa
i feel like
is either gonna be sold
whic is the rumours rn
or
verissimo
simeone wants him to play as a rw
he reminds me of miranda
wish if Hamburg didn’t bottle play-offs
We would actually watch the world cup now if Fifa wasnt corrupt😭 😭
we after him too
this is a big dub for us
Nah, fuck hamburg trash club
as benzema back up
rdt was solid
whos this guy
bro
dudes mad talented
so much potential
like holy
Atalanta in 2020-2021 was a joy to watch
well if atletico are trying to get him, he could be good
ppl call him the italian thiago silva
he has to be good
which is why we were willing to pay anything
LMFAOO
media pressure
would be better than felipe
way better

and herbozo
LMFAOOOO
i feel bad for hermoso man
he loves the club but he doesnt play as a cb
dude plays as a st instead
😭
hes inconsistent
very
sometimes he'll play god like
and others he just karate kicks someone
and gets a red
cant rely on him heavy
like
hes not badddd
but hes unreliable
bremer is sick
hes gonna move to a bigger club
not in serie a
i dont think so
unless the rats juventus jump in
uk how to program?
wdym
acc reach off-topic
ok
What
And of all time
Ollie Watkins and Eric Abidal
Bro don't sleep on beckham
If you leave giggs around him too long he will sleep with your wife
messi or ronaldo
Messi
ya its between those 2
me
as best of all time
I hate speed so yk
💀
messi >

guys will jack grealish still be a flop next season
ofc
who should i invest in
kdb
i wouldve if he went to madrid
wtf are u investing in lmaooo
wdym
Listen
My investments are always correct
So you should listen to me
i feel that nunez will be a good striker
doesn't suit klopp's system imo
Yeah he uses false 9 i think
imo is wild
debatable
Who reached the ucl in Seria a though?
Andy Carroll
he doesnt but hes good
so he'll adapt
Andy Carroll v2 coming up?
who?
he's not gonna be andy caroll
They bought an uruguayan along with andy in the same window and I think that guy's a liverpool legend
yeah, statistically
The Milan Teams, Napoli, Juventus
Ac Milan was more of a joy to watch we got ucl
We haven’t made it to the ucl in 5 years
Hello son
Suarez
they will now compete for it
they are back
wow
Why are you surprised we fell off in 2014
u finished 10th
u were just like us
because didnt you make ucl this year
Yeah that’s how bad we were
We did just didn’t top our group
even liverpool were shit that time
We won the league
we didnt even get ucl in 2017/18
I mean I know that Liverpool were shit but idk why Chelsea fell off that time
in 18/19 you got grouped i think
Well we didn’t get ucl for ages either we did get Europa last year tho and somehow lost to United who managed to bottle it to Villarreal
lack of fitness, player iirc
Yeah
story of our life from 2014 to 2017 icl
But I really believe that we would have beaten villa real
true tbf
Like how the fuck do you lose to Villarreal like if you beat us in the semi final at least win the final
yea man
Well doesn’t matter next season our goal is to reach the quarter finals
united are a different breed fr😭
Fr they win against a strong team then go on to lose to a shittier team
fr
we were in europa @violet reef and we won it
we werent in ucl that season
last season we had finished 5th
behind u guys
anyways im happy with the team
But tbh we had no striker at the time
Yeah
But you’ve been doing shit lately
Like idk why exactly
ye you got grouped i think
But at the end of the season
oh
You kinda lost couple of games
in 20/21 we were pretty good but we were almost finishing 5th
we won the cl
the gap between leicester and us was 1 point
thank spurs for that season
I was so happy when you won that damn ucl
I didn’t want city to win it
I put all my faith in you
My honest reaction
He look like Andy Carroll
we can beat city
No?
cl?
They did
Tho
Last year
In the final
I mean Liverpool can’t beat Chelsea either
You guys lost twice?
They made it to three finals with Chelsea
we did twice technically
Only managed to win on penalties
now tell me is a cl final win important or two prem losses?
Nah like I mean they couldn’t beat Chelsea without pens
Didn’t score a single goal against them
we held on
Goes the other way they couldnt beat us
they went full attacking
That's 20/21, but in 21/22, I don't think so
No but Liverpool obviously had a better season and was better this season
Made it to the ucl final
And the prem race
So people say Liverpool
Prem race was all you
same with ucl if the belgian scum wasnt so good
Lmaoooo
Slippy g goated
Courtios goated

That's why Lampard is better
W
Gerrard > lampard
No
slipping flashbacks
Gerrard way better
You underestimate Gerrard
Look at 2005
And gerrard
Killed our 8th ucl title
1 UCL and 3 prem
gerrard 0 prem
At least he didn't slip
0 prem is a shit argument
That’s a big W in my book
comeback tax
So?
his team was not the best at all
He won also a UCL?
lampards chelsea was >>>>
True
What?
put gerrard in this squad and we win the sextuple 3 times over
Gerrard won a ucl against prime Milan when he was 3-0 down in the first half
So
Also he was mvp
If it was "not the best", how tf liverpool win 2005?
..
Liverpool’s squad that year was mediocre
ok but lampard>scholes
Also
Lol
we had fucking djimi traore playing
Funny
If dudek didn’t play that well in 2005 we would have won
Have you seen how many shots on target we had in the second half???
that double save
And Scholes won more than both of them
Gerrard and dudek carried you
trophies mean shit in the whos a better player debate
i can respect u won against a prime Milan
It was all dudek and Gerrard damn it
Dudek saved way to many shots
Scholes literally the best midfielder said by Zidane btw
gerrard<scholes
Looking back on 05 milan should have won
because of dudeks pens
my guy comes out so fucking far 😭
Yeah I saw that
Dudek took 2 steps
When pirlo took his penalty
And saved it
But it doesn’t matter
STEVEI G
dudek was crazy
BE LIKE
bro looked like he was about to pick up the ball 😭😭
: COOL AF
Lmaooo
my mans is closer to the ball than the line here
Lmaooo
Man really went and picked up the ball
ok best english midfilder debate unbiased
gerrard
lampard
scholes
embed fail
correct ranking
the only correct opinion (serious)
Man underestimate Scholes
gavi fanboy say scholes
gerrard>scholes>lampard imo
and man utd fans support madrid
Gavi fanboy I’m not gonna take zidanes words when he never played or managed scholes
I hate Madrid
I like Madrid
yes but u support man utd too
I hate madrid
Yeah
me too
i was supporting madrid but liverpool got robbed
couldnt say it better
Honestly I hate Liverpool, city, madrid, bayern, juventus
It’s not a robbery they lost the same way we lost to them in 2005
Because the keeper
Was too good
I hate arsenal, spurs, city, madrid
everytime im talking with my bros about the PL and talking trash about each other madrid fans just have to join in and stick their nose with the Hala Madrid and 14 UCL comments
thanks for coming to my rant
dudek master class
i knew madrid fans were gonna go crazy after winning another one
also liv
I be hating on Intermilan juve city and psg
Yes he was too good
fr saved so many penalties aswell
I bet inter and juve because of rivalry and city and psg because of oil
Exactly for that reason lmaooo
city of course are on another level of hate, the level when its not "hate" as much as it is "you ruined football"
I hate inter and juve but they are just rivals
everton are not really our rivals (too small of a club)
its not only about spending its about how they get the money
Football literally made by money rn
I never thought of them as your rivals tbh I always thought of United as your rivals but they have been shit lately
oil is on the same level as getting your money from a nation called spain's government
even united aren't anymore
Exactly like they didn’t earn that money like some teams did
bro you cant say nuff about that you’re billions in debt still buying
city are
It’s city now but I miss when United were your rivals
they just think we have lot of ucl so we best club in the world
because madrid are the bigger club currently
I hate Newcastle, Barca , psg , city , from order favourite to least favourite
barca fans in 2009 and 2011 were just as bad
City and psg buying everything but still lose UCL
barcelona fans when their team is doing better are toxic
True
they are ok
but rn because real madrid are doing better their voices are heard more
but stop sticking your nose in everything
They still are
Yes kinda like annoying
why do they jump in while im talking trash about everton or something with my friend
What city fans?
none of your business madrid
someoenr rate our fans
stfu and go talk to la liga teams or something
chelseas fanbase
Racist
wtf
an older city fan
Yeah especially when they say"salah is a bomber"
chelsea were the old city
so their fans are city fans but older
less annoying
etc
Best fanbase is Arsenal like they talk like they are going to do something call mid players world class and all then keep losing
I find it funny
Chelsea is so annoying when they say champions of Europe I mean you guys just won 2
they are resistant to everything in life
so they aren't annoying
Chelsea has more history then city so I rate them above city
Exactly
yeah city will soon have history too
well ive seen most ofour fans toxic in twitter
in like 15 years
I need them to not win a ucl
They buy it
they will
in like the chelsea discord u wont find toxic fans
Exactly
Well said from a Barca fan
i mean if you go back long enough a lot of "big clubs" did buy their success through one way or another
so its probably ok since they are a big club now
But money doesn't buy UCL
It almost did for city and did for Chelsea
twice
lets be real
psg is built on a broken foundation
too much egos
just not a team
and city will get it
and deserve it
Not Messi fault
Psg buys the most popular players that’s it
But it's overrated money merchant mbappe
Yes if city wins it they deserve it psg doesn’t
I hate him so much
Mbappe is a joke
Really get FFP
If Milan and inter get FFP for spending less psg and city should also get it
Give up his dream for the greatest club in history
milan got a bahraini investment or something right ?
he didn't
lets be real
he is 22
or something
I don't understand ffp rule
Apparently he has some part in Liverpool
something like that said they will invest in milan if they win the league
So now we will function similar to Liverpool
and u did
They changed their mind
Other people bought us
:(
I believe they also have part in Liverpool
Actually they do
They are kind of your owners
Basically
Now
Still he's bad
We will function similarly to Liverpool
He will never reached GOAT level
Yes he will
and football fans especially madrid ones have short memory
He won’t go to Real Madrid tho
Madrid said that they want eve buy him
and win 2 ucls and be epic
Madrid doesn’t want him anymore
u don't know how madrid will be in 3 years
He can come to Milan he said like the club lmaooo
if they need him they will get him
Idk assuming that they don’t want anything to do with him rn I don’t think they’ll try and get him unless they really have to
if they have a chance they will get him
he is still mbappe
madrid fans like to act he is giroud now but no
he is the best young talent itw and one of the best players itw
At ligue 1 , I don't think so
Let’s be realistic
No matter how shitty the league he is in he can
Look at lewa
also he isn't staying
Yeah if he can’t go to Madrid he’ll go to another club
guys madrid isn't dumb enough to reject a 25 year old prime mbappe because their fans have an ego and think a player not wanting to go to their club is "betrayal"
especially a player like mbappe
Beat Swiss first ig
Even
If they
Reject him
Do you really think no club would want him
he will go to city or smth
Like
he just wants to get the cash for the next 3 years and walk away
I mean he already got the cash from psg
he wants more
they do for some reason
i mean rich people
at a certain point money doesn't matter anymore
its just greed
After that Euro 2021 performance, I'm sure he's shit
the team just won a world cup
I would have chosen Real Madrid because first of all I’m already a millionaire plus it’s not like I’m going to get minimum wage at Madrid
So I’m still going to make lots of money
do you think teams winning the world cup and getting out from the group stage the next world cup is a coincidence or curse ?
players don't feel hungry anymore
the only time multiple wc wins in a row happen is when the whole world is a farmers league
I mean he just lose nations league
England kinda finished
idk
Bigger than most ligue 1 for sure
don't think most top players are like him
Not prem clubs tho
all
mbappe is nothing
Well he ain’t bigger then psg
he isn't
Actually
mcbappe
He owns psg
omg the madrid fans jumped in
Mpaypal owns psg
W, Good guy, fridge full of milk, Good grade
go ask a random american or somebody if they know "Kylian mbappe" then ask them if they know "Tottenham Hotspur"
players like him are bigger than clubs
even big clubs
sadly
individuals get more attention than entities
thats just in everything in the world
But he is still nothing
how is that lol
Sir
Exactly
Can you make this club
how is mbappe "nothing"
Hello hoomans
Tbh I think most Americans won’t even name clubs like Liverpool United Madrid or Barca
So
Why ask them
Just like guardiola
as a coach
americans are like the central of stupidity
no offence
The player
but they can name "Cristiano Ronaldo" or "Messi"
thats the point
and burgers
No they can’t they only know them by names
Like
