Yeah I just realized if you liked Messi over Ronaldo as a kid there was something wrong with you.
Had me doing 6 minute ab workouts on YouTube and buying hair gel ffs. The mercurials were a necessity too.
They stole Allez Allez Allez...
They compare Saka to Salah, Saliba to Van Dijk, Trossard to Jota. Even called Ramsdale “baby Alisson.”
Leave us alone. Be a little creative lads.
Liverpool Curtis Jones on Arsenal celebrations:
"The gaffer himself, the way he fist bumps fans and stuff. That’s kind of like our thing.
So if they want to be stealing our stuff, then it shows that we’re on the right path and we’ve got these who are copying us." [BBC via tbr]
His legacy will age like Bergkamp’s, potentially even better.
People in 15, 20 years, will be like, “Wow what a player he was”. Rightfully so.
The fact that his legacy will age so well keeps me at rest.
He’s an icon.
Defenders like Rio, Terry & Vidic are always going to be safeguarded by the fact that social media didn’t exist when they played.
Had LOADS of clips like these but they’ll never get cooked for it
VVD is put under a microscope and his legacy is still in tact, that’s why he’s
#1
.
He got the loudest standing ovation I’ve ever seen at Anfield, and that’s saying something. Special player.
One of the most beautiful footballers I’ve ever watched.
January.
@DONTM1SSS
arsenal as a club are the closest of the top 6 to us, values wise. class club
some/most of the online fanbase is just loud. the fans i know irl are pretty sound.
I repeat, this guy is an anomaly.
Probably the only right back in the history of the sport which you could genuinely build your team around.
When he plays well, everybody plays well.
That’s why you find the most optimal environment for HIM to play in.
@Sup3rbobb
this is hilarious, we won more trophies since this than you have.
and if anything, on a football level we’re pretty similar at the moment, if not, we’re slightly better than you.
one season made you lot so entitled lol, pipe down.
A modern day, Portuguese Pippo Inzaghi.
Box-killer, smart, effective, efficient. Can kill a man in the 18-yard box.
20+ goals a season and you won’t even feel it’s happening.
Real fox in the box. Really under appreciated.
Most of the City squad’s players have gone missing and dipped in form at some part of the season, and some have had a bad season overall.
Not Foden and Rodri. Their best two players this season. All. The. Time.
Cody Gakpo, great footballer.
Stop confusing him by putting him in so many different positions, he’s played LW, CF, LCM, and now RW since he’s arrived. Feel sorry for him.
Give him a consistent run of games in one position (CF), he’s versatile but he’s not superman.
City are good, no doubt.
But if anyone thinks we won’t put up one hell of a fight tomorrow, you’re in for a complete shock.
The buzz around the club is back. Up the FUCKING REDS
@mr__carlitos
it wasn’t even three dm’s lmao. just a DM and two more conservative CM’s.
we also had two flying fullbacks and devastating wingers who were involved in everything.
firmino was a beauty to watch too.
stop trying to defend boring football by criticizing exciting football.
No way people think like this.
If you don’t understand how important it is to him, his people, and his legacy, then I don’t know what to tell you.
Go and win it, Mo.
Look at how our man-to-man suffocates United’s build-up.
Everything is done so well;
Salah covering Onana’s pass angle to Varane.
Darwin’s press trigger on a pass to a wide CB.
Szoboszlai anticipating the pass to Amrabat.
Gravenberch making it a 2 v 1.
Then, Anfield roars.
@utdcynical
We cooked you and put 7 on your head with Fabinho, Henderson, and Elliott.
You better start worrying about your own meady club’s transfer business, or else it’ll be more than 7.
This is what you call ‘taking responsibility’.
Wore his heart on his sleeve for 120 and helped drag the team across the line.
Can criticize his faults but you cannot question his heart.
Has the League’s best player ever been a full-back? Don’t think so.
Soon though…
Like it or not, he’s changing the game. We’re all going to be witnesses to his history.
Fanbase the past couple of weeks has been horrible.
Already picking sides between Curtis and Gravenberch, and slandering the other for agenda and interactions.
Don’t even get me started on the Darwin and Diaz hate. It happened to Mac Allister for a while too. Some of you stink.
@registarodri
is that supposed to be slander?
we are a team, a collective. we don’t need superstars and personas. we don’t need pr and media points.
we’ve signed the odd big player before they join us but that doesn’t matter.
things like that only matter on twitter and socials.
@aar0n_nt
is upa really better though? so error-prone and not as physically imposing.
on-ball qualities generally go to upa, but still.
but yea, ibou isn’t edwards’ only revelation.
Horror take.
By any means, he didn’t do well today.
But we’ve been throwing him around from position to position and expecting results. 1st half he was a 9, then switched to RW.
He’s had no stability whatsoever. None. Give him a proper environment and watch.
So reactionary.
Van De Ven, is lightning quick, recorded a top speed of 35.87 km/h this season in the Bundesliga, this speed, but also his defensive awareness and patience, make him more than capable of playing in a high-line defense along with Virgil Van Dijk, and Ibrahima Konate.
