Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - Mikel Arteta: "How am I doing boss?" Tony Pulis: "You're doing a great job son!"

Hes better than slightly average, but does have a clumsy look to him but so does your club captain and hasn't pulled up any trees for England Nor worth what West Ham want either. The problem is, it's the stupid labels he's been given and people expecting him to be just like that. Biscuits and Carrick are the 2 names I've seen him compared too.

The West Ham version and the England version are complete opposites. West Ham he drives forward with the ball more and looks a better player for it. England, they trying to make him into some Anglo Irish gluten free Biscuits. Phillips is better suited to that role, because he actually does it in the style that Waistcoat wants the team to play.

Maguire is the definition of a slightly above average player.

Extremely stupid.

Rice is 21 and has room to improve. Slabhead 27 and isn't going to get any better.

Extremely stupid.

Phil Foden, future Man City and England captain

Honestly, I thought it was just me. I dont see what everyone is talking about. He looks slightly above average to me.

Nah breh, Rice has improved a lot particularly in the last year.

Mobile, can tackle, good height and strength. His passing is a lot better than it was this time last year.

If he continue to improve at this rate he will be worth the money.

Just watched that episode. Rose was with the shyts

Is amazing what United's marketing has done over the years. You could of sworn that Best only ever played in #7, when the reality is he probably played in #11 more and also wore #8 on many occasions.

I'll take your word for it.

Phil Foden, future Man City and England captain

He actually fits the profile of an England captain.

Rio, Adams, Gooney, Gerrard, Terry. Add in Lamps who was a reserve captain. All did dirt before the armband, following on the tried and tested tradition.

Can even throw in Bobby Moore who was accused of being a tea leaf in Colombia.
Bryan Robson being a functional alcoholic.

But hey who doesn't like a good redemption story

 

[SCORCH]

I'll take your word for it.

He will look brilliant playing for one of the top teams.

Rice and Kante in a double pivot would be filth.

Got them lads on tape.

I'm used to seeing English players getting over hyped but this Declan Rice shyt is something else. Good lord

Honestly, I thought it was just me. I dont see what everyone is talking about. He looks slightly above average to me.

If you let them tell it, you'd think Hudson Odoi is the second coming of Dinho

 

[The axe murderer]

this is painful

Got them lads on tape.

He asked what she was coming to the hotel for, she said what you think bro
