A lot of that is due to cultural similarities that other countries can't replicate. A Brazilian moving to Portugal is very different than if they...
How so? Genuinely asking since I don't really know anything about it.
lol that's crazy because he's having an amazing season. Wouldn't expect gaining weight and having a great season to go together but maybe he's...
Prestianni has already started practicing with Benfica, waiting until the end of the month when he turns 18 and can sign a contract. Really...
Can't we all just get along? - Rodney King
Not to mention he was the Man of the Match in the Euro 2016 final which gave Portugal their first title ever. He's very underrated. To me, the...
I'd put Pepe up in the CB list. I rate him higher than Ricardo Carvalho. 3 time Team of the Tournament at the Euros, multiple CL wins, etc. He'd...
We would've made the CL final if he stayed.
Not good?
Good stuff Comme.
What's the formula if you don't mind me asking?
I'm guessing he means a more systematic and quantitative classification based on a calculation. For example, for Platinum III you have CR7, Cruyff...
Brother, Messi won the World Cup with players like Dybala and Lautaro Martinez on the bench. Those two players would be undisputed starters in...

I'd agree but let's provide some context - In 2006 he was not playing as a goal scorer, in 2010 and 2014 he played with teammates that were,...
Great and impressive work.
Yeah, his prime was unfortunately sandwiched between two Golden Generations but at least he won a Euro despite that. And fortunately I was at the...

This narrative that Ronaldo never played well in the World Cup is blatantly untrue. In Portugal's most important World Cup game ever, the...
How long did it take you to do all that?
Looks great and great website. I liked the Portugal XI too.
Not sure I agree entirely but great attempt at verbalizing the classifications.
I don't think you can take a look at Ronaldo's total domination of the Champions League and not use the word "greatness" to describe it. By...
I think it's fair to put only one player in that category. The player considered best of all time should deserve their own category by virtue of...
