De Ligt with the fukk up again. I've seen enough to conclude that he's pretty overrated. He "reads" the game well and all but he doesn't have the physical tools like the elites
I'm a bit vary of that de jong dude too :patrice: both of them got talent, but thy are woefully inconsistent.

multiple league titles in different countries, multiple CL titles on different team and now multiple international trophies. He is the GOAT
No he isn't. Ronaldo da lima, then Zidane and the rest can fight for the other places.

Remember when Jordan Morris was supposed to be that dude?:mjlol:

Dude had his injuries but more overhyped trash should have went to Germany

Ever since I heard that Jermaine Jones story about Morris I can't respect him ever.

Kid had a contract from Hertha Berlin ready to sign after leaving Stanford but he chose to stay close to home in Seattle because his girlfriend just got him a dog. :stopitslime:

Netherlands better be careful.....I just realized Northern Ireland is about to be 9 pts ahead of them and Germany 6 pts ahead of them in their euro qualification group. They got a few games in hand, but there will be some pressure on them to qualify.. Just something to keep an eye on :lupe:

Way too early hot-takes for Euro 2020

-Dutch need a proper no. 9 for next Euros. They need someone to fill the shoes RvP left.
-Germany needs to balance their midfield for 2020. There are also some questions about their back line as well.
-Belgium need a proper LB and possibly some new blood at the CB position.
-France don't have any glaring weaknesses in their First XI. Only position worth questioning is the no. 9 role considering Giroud's lack of game time domestically, even still, there's are enough attackers in Mbappe, Lacazette, Martial etc that Descamphs could call on.
-Portugal actually looks quite solid front to back. Don't have to rely on Ronaldo for everything. An additional proven no. 9 would be a nice to have, however. Guedes is more of a winger and Andre Silva ain't quite it.
-England doesn't really lack any personal. The spirit, however, is a different convo.
-Italy have a serious problem at the no. 9 role. Between Belotti and Immobile, neither seem to quite make it work.
-Spain have a pretty big rebuilding task. From a talent perspective they're fine. They have the players, they just need the system now that the old guards of Tiki-taka have left
-Croatia's WC18 core should still be there. However, this might be their last opportunity for a major trophy.
