Basically this person said "liverpool are gonna win" and benzema replied that they won't do anything, because it's his story, his moment

“I would have liked him to be able to fulfill his dream of playing for Real Madrid, being together,” Benzema said. “He chose PSG, we must respect him. It is his choice, he has many responsibilities. We will enjoy playing together in the national team. Everyone makes their own decisions.

“Real Madrid is Real Madrid, I am not disappointed. We are good friends, it will not affect our relationship.”

Mpaypal has the same delusions of his bestie Hakimi. They both think they will just comeback here whenever they feel like it.

My hope is we grow to greater heights and they watch in regret from the outside.

No matter what either say their egos know this club is the pinnacle and they know they aren't actually complete without it. So I want them to never have that completion and rue it.

Yeah I'm still bitter lol.

 

******** Mbappe but i dont get the hakimi hate.
He spoke well of the club

 

No he was bitter that he was sold.

 

yeah, I remember that and saying he wanted to be sure that he will play but I saw a recent interview where he is saying I owe the club, and that's where I grew up, maybe one day.
doesn't strike me as comparable to mbappe.

Benzema massive odds-on favourite to win Ballon D'Or.

 

I noticed Tchouameni on the table smiling. He's probably glad he waited before picking where to go next.

Seeing Varane had me feeling a bit emotional. He left Real Madrid to join a team that's gonna be a Europa or Conference league mainstay unless Chelsea/Tottenham unravel. Humungous fall from grace.

Kante and Hernandez looked genuinely happy for him. The rest were meh. Kylian just putting his PR face on.

 

This might be a way for @Realist to get his €5000 back.

 

This would be a good chance for France Football magazine to weed out the people who should have their voting privileges revoked. Anyone with Messi anywhere on their ballot is removed.

There is literally no debate. He has the trophies, he has the stats and he has the impact. He's the best player in the world and no other player is close to him.

 

But Messi?

 

Who else?

Karim Benzema is the 2021/2022 Champions League player of the season for his 15 goals.

BALOOOOOOOOOON DOOOOOR

 

He can't stop scoring!

 

Just saw the highlights to the Denmark and Benz took his goal so well, the one-two followed by the way he dibbled to open up space and pass it in the back of the net was outstanding.

It’s going to be a shame when he starts to slow down but we can only hope it’s years away like Modric.
