Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

If Madrid win the CL again would they be the best team ever brehs?

Reminds me of Scott Harrison.

Robertson the lad who joined Liverpool in the summer?

I'll tell you which player you who played for you, I liked , but annoyed me with wasted talent was McFadden, shall I assume he's a drinker as well.

Aye Robertson just went to Liverpool. Great player.


McFadden is a sad one really. ACL tear fukked him and he was never the same afterwards. Bit of a derrick rose situation.

 

[Fenian]

Come on Ireland, hold on.

The no poppy wearing legend has done it.

My favourite player who doesn't play for Celtic.

Statistically, they would be the best in the CL era, 3 in a row and 4/5 years. The 3 in a row equals Ajax and Bayern record from the old European Cup days, but they would still be behind the Real side of the late 50's and early 60's who won 5 in a row and 6/10 years.

But they've only 2 league titles in 9 years, aka the Cristiano era, and they were 5 years apart. While Barca haven't done b2b CL win they do have 2 trebles to their names and have also won their own domestic league b2b also.

I still take Saachi/Capello Milan and Pep's 1st year Barca (it was by far the best balanced team) over them in a match. Both those teams would match up physically with this current Real team.

Like I mentioned earlier, stats wise would call them the best, but they aren't really a memorable team when I think about to all the club teams I've seen in all the years of watching.

Cristiano makes the difference in that team, if you took him out they would automatically lose half of his goals (given the replacement would at least hit half of Cristiano output as a bare minimum) and relying on Benzema.

Damn, did you witness that milan team of the 1990s? I've heard stories about them from the OGs and they even told me that peps barca don't even come close to them which had me like they were that good?

They my favourite team.

They are about 10-15 full matches from 87-94 on YouTube, it may be even more.

Van Basten maybe the greatest technical striker there has ever been. Gullit who is in his prime had the tekkers of Henry, the strength and power of D. Diddy.
Rijkaard who could play either as a defender or midfielder with ease, was the complete midfielder and could score important goals.

The back 4 was so well marshaled that in 93/94 season, played 53 games they conceded only 24 goals in all competitions. And this was on the back of losing Rijkaard and Gullit being sold and Van Basten with the career ending injury.

From the 87-96.

They won the league 5 times with 4/5 years and 3 in a row.
Went a whole league season unbeaten, 58 games it stopped at.
Made 5 European Cup/CL finals, won 3 and played in 3 finals on the spin and they were banned for a year from Europe during this time as well.

Props. Was looking for it and could not find it lol.

 

[Majestic]

Man i was just looking through the 2011/2012 la liga season. Didn't know madrid broke that much records

Mourinho truly a genius.

You'd think the great barca team of 2011 would have done so.

 

[Majestic]

Im sorry brehs but Barcelona 2011 was otherworldly, simply the best of the 21st century . Football at its absolute peak. Will we ever see that level of football played again? Damn.

"my dad's soccer team"

bytch doesn't know about the NATIONAL TEAM of where she's from.



Appreciative that my pa passed down the value of football to me. That's embarassing.

That'd definitely be my father doing the same thing if Haiti ever qualifies again


But yeah, football is easily the sport of humanity. It's the only sport that catches the attention of literally everyone on the planet.
