villa4europe Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 their best 2 CBs have a combined age of 69, the keeper is ok but not CL winning class and his back up is 43 year old buffon, the RB is a winger, they have some good players especially in CM but they're young and still developing, lots of experience in some areas but then missing experience in others, they have 4 players in the 25 to 29 "peak" range, they only have a 22 man squad propped up by youngsters and then 33 players out on loan and then the main thing if you're honest the last couple of managers havent been good enough to win the CL you can read that and just imagine messi saying "**** tell me about pal" 22 man squad with 33 players out on loan, insane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many same Westwood like midfielders doing nothing like Ramsey, Rabiot, Bentancur and Arthur. They had play Danilo there recently and he was better than most Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the congratulations would be genuine. Hes always been the most humble of men. Theres a neighbour who was telling me that where brazil trained during the 66 world cup. He was having a kickaround with some friends on one of the pitches and Pele came and joined them .He was great with the kids.

sharkyvilla Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I can't work out how he smashed it in that hard with no backlift either. It looks more like a toe poke or even a chip style shot. His form has been phenomenal since the new year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man Utd “let him go” for a world record £80m. Real Madrid then “let him go” for £99m at the age of 33. I also imagine there’s (definitely now) 2 things with Ronaldo; a) his say is very powerful. If he wants to move, he’ll move possibly because b) I imagine he’s a bad egg to have around IF he’s unhappy (could be unfair, very much speculative).

Mic09 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I'd imagine players like Ronaldo are as much athletes as they are marketing tools. And I guess last year wasn't great for marketing or kids buying football shirts, so they need to get rid if he is not to become a financial burden. Also, Ronaldo will not play in Europa League. No way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Juventus are an organisational shit show, Ronaldo is on about a million a week but was a signing they didnt really need. They wasted so much wages on shit free transfers like Rabiot, Ramsey, Khedira and Emre Can that they are so unbalanced. Ronaldo has probably been the reason they are still competing in Serie A but in Europe they were exposed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Which says to me no one wanted him at the wages that he demanded I doubt anyone can offer even half of what he earns let alone what he supposedly earns 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
