Mes que un sporting project - The Other Teams Thread

Nobody is saying he was horrible there or that him not working optimum in that system makes him a horrible player (see Zlatan also). However Busquets was a better fit as DM in their system. This is not even arguable to me, I don't know why you are trying to keep this one up.

When I ask for proof from you? Funny how that works.

 

Why would you need to exclude penalties if it wasn't just to make the point you want to make? Taking a penalty well, and scoring them time after time, is a skill that many don't have. People act like it's an easy thing to do, but you have to deal with the pressure in varying situations, at different points in a game and at different score lines. On top of that, as the regular taker, you've most likely been studied by the goalkeeper in case such a moment arises, needing to change up your technique and placement regularly (unless you're Balotelli).

Taking and scoring penalties on a consistent basis is as much a skill as anything else in football, and each successful penalty is as much a goal as any other. As I said, the only reason to exclude them from a tally is to fit your own argument.

 

HA! No comment on the number manipulation? And you're excluding legitimate goals in order to manipulate the statistical point you're trying to make. That is misuse of statistics. If you include everything Ronaldo is by far better.

And secondly, if anything Diego Costa has been more consistent than Suarez. More goals and more assists. This wile helping his team top the league and get to the semi-finals in the Champions League. A feat more impressive than Suarez, but yet no one is saying that Diego is better than Ronaldo. You certainly aren't.

 

Whoa!

2-0!

 

Of course no one would admit this here...objectivity is not their strongest points

Remember....
Casillas is the best goalkeeper in the world
Ramos is the best defender in the world



And then I wonder why we are hated so much....

 

I also don't understand Yaya. What exactly was his point? He is among the best paid football players in the world and he is recognized as one of the best CM's/DM's in the world. He is no Messi though, never was and never will be,

 

That's exactly what I said, just maybe was not as specific.

 

Exactly, and let's forget that Ronaldo was MASSIVE in WC qualifiers playoffs.

 

He is also three games away from winning jack. They play Chelsea next - if they lose that game then the trophy is Man City's for the taking.

 

Suarez better than Ronaldo? What world...reality...drugs...?

 

Oh btw there is no connection between having a chance at scoring a penalty and scoring said penalty and not having a chance to score penalty and not scoring said penalty. No connection at all.

 

THIS SEASON!!!

Oh I see you are from Portugal.....

Never Mind

 

Suarez obviously has much more abilities than Ronaldo. Like biting, throwing fits, diving and world class cheating.

 

HOW?!?!

Oh I see, your jeremy123...

Never Mind

 

Sure, we're the ones who are not objective. This coming from the person who was just caught manipulating statistics in order to prove his point. Yeah, you're certainly objective. Continue to evading the questions debunking you.

 

51 different startingg 11's from United under Moyes.

 

What did I manipulate?
Suarez has more goals and assists than Ronaldo this season in the league. Oh you want to include the champions league? hahaha

Have you watched Suarez this season or do you only watch Madrid matches? All jokes aside buddy, can you honestly tell me Ronaldo has performed better than Suarez this season?

 

Based on numbers (G+A) Parejo, Xavi and Rakitic are all better than Modric this season. Rakitic especially shits all over Modric (it's not even close), how many of you think he is having a better season than Luka?

 

Everton are toying with them now.

 

There is a new crop of managers out there right now....Martinez, Rogers, Klopp, Guardiola, Simeone who are bringing so much new shit to the game.

I feel Ancelotti is a slightly archaic coach when compared to these guys. Tactically anyway. Man management skills are top notch though.
