You 8-2 See One Team Score 9 Times- The Other Teams Thread

We can go on forever about the injustice of the prices in the market and the money in the game, but if there is a player worthy of that price tag in the world of futbol, it’s Mbappe.

 

We don’t have unlimited resources. What we spent last summer+the pandemic is limiting our spending power to almost zero this summer.

It is not just about overpaying. It would affect the quality of the other potential transfers, maybe for several windows (without even taking wages into account).

 

I think it's a damn shame that Real Madrid isn't on this list:


I really want Real Madrid to win a treble.

 

Mbappe is the Galactico Flo wants. Don't think he will reject that opportunity due to transfer fee. PSG will be the biggest stumbling block even next summer. I don't think Flo was even that keen on paying 100 ME for Hazard, but had to do it as he promised ZZ some important signings.

 

Neither is Milan or Liverpool and they have had some dominant teams. Top clubs only started having two quality starting XIs in their squad in last 15 years or so. And that has ended the chances of smaller clubs winning domestic cup pretty much. RM/Barca hadn't won CDR for a long time before Pep's Barca in 2009. When Utd won the treble, it was seen as a nearly impossible task in a top league. There has been 5 trebles since 2008.

 

Yea, this thread title really isn’t doing it for me.

Should be changed

 

No Rapinoe or Pogba jokes on the title though, we are not bigots.

 

There's a very specific group of people I'll have to insult using that someday. Just needs some better spelling. Thanks!

 

@Eddie you should be ashamed of this absolutely shit thread title.

 

Enough with the Barcelona references. Thread title staying as is because I said so.

You'd 8-2 lose your farm to a Bavari drunk.

 

Bavarian?

 

The group stages can be when you're playing against APOEL and Shaktar Donetsk. Just look at Messi.

 

I don’t see what the big deal is about a treble.

It’s not like we’d be the first ever team to do it and it’s old news now.

 

I agree that you can't judge a player on one game, but even based on the last 3 CL games he's done, not sure he is at the level of price that we will probably pay for him - 300+ million I guess??

one point that someone brought in this shitty thread title, is that regardless of how good mbappe is, he is never going to the messi or CR level. That is something we should all understand, mbappe as good you think he is, is just not CR/messi level to build a team around. He is a very good forward, but not a player you build a team around. we need to realize that era of time is gone. we're not getting any CR/messi level player anytime soon (not only us, but the world).
our rebuild project should be around a team of players and not a single player.
you just need to look at the core of the teams the last 2 CL winners have, to see that it is not a single star player, but a core group of really good players.
(and PSG example is exactly why you can't win the CL like that anymore).

this is probably something that Perez will never understands, since I'm sure he will pour all the money in the world to get mbappe.
having said all that, he is an exceptional player, but I really wonder where he fits in our team, even just one year from now, who do you leave out in the front 3?
do you send Vinnie and Rodrygo packing? do you bench benzema? (something Zidane and Perez will never do) do you bench Eden? (again, both Perez and Zidane will never allow).

 

Smh then shorten it:
