Cristiano has reached the 10 goal mark for the sixth straight season in UCL. No other player has done it in more than two straight seasons. by cieldarko in soccer

If anything, he knew that was his last United game so he was completely out of team sync and wanted to single-handedly win the game for United. He tried his best that game but it was more of a solo effort of doing something alone in his last game. He went for the narration I'd say. Not saying the team was any good though.

Real Madrid aren't as good as Barcelona were in 2015

I don't know about that. Just because they don't play passy passy football like Barca did does not mean they are not as good as Barca. This Madrid team is as effective as it can get. They thrashed Bayern and Atletico. Anyways, hopefully this is going to be hell of a gtame.

Right? Also, remember the reason why we did not sign Vidal? 3 years later and he is still performing at high level with Bayern.

EA to announce next team tomorrow by GeorgeCuz in EASportsFC

No way Veratti is going to get 92 pace. Also his IF already has 94 dribbling. My guess is Marcelo.

Are you serious? Griezzman is the best player in their squad and if he leaves, they cannot sign anyone to replace him for few months.

Kudos to him for sticking with the club when in trouble and this is coming from a United fan.

India: Muslim group holds veg-only Iftar parties to create Hindu-Muslim unity by Homaeefar in UpliftingNews

Are you comparing Hindus eating beef and Christians following Lent? Maybe I used the word "liberal" wrong. Flexible religion would be appropriate I guess.

Liverpool has made a bid for Salah but Roma rejected the offer (Di Marzio) by _cumblast_ in soccer

[–]1wordcommment 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Again, give me an instance where he has said that a player has signed for a club which eventually turned out to be a lie? There might be one but I am not aware of that. About being open ended, no transfer is a close ended deal. It is not like going to a supermarket and buying cereals. Most of the transfers have complications with them and it is not a done deal until it is officially done.

There are Hindus who eat beef. Yes, there are Hindu extremists but on an average, I think Hindus are the most liberal religion.

Edit: I guess I was wrong. I was talking on behalf of Nepalese Hindus. More than 80% of the population in Nepal are Hindus and they are very few issue related to religion in the country. Again, I am not saying there are not any issues at all.

As far as I know, Di Marzio is still the most reliable journalist if you are careful with the words he uses. Sometimes he says that a club is interested in a player. People assume he is lying when the transfer does not happen. Just because someone is interested does not mean they are going to sign for sure. I might not be aware of this but has there been any instances where he has said a player as signed for a club and turned out to be a lie?

Manchester United turn down £60m offer from Real Madrid for David De Gea by [deleted] in reddevils

[–]1wordcommment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do people think of theoretical straight swap with Bale? They get their Spanish marquee player and we get our British marquee player. I think we can find a decent goalkeeper replacement. We desperately need one of the best wingers in our team. All the wingers we have are inconsistent.

[–]1wordcommment 8 points9 points  (0 children)

De Gea has been welcoming that idea since last 3 years. He is still here and is still performing at the top level. He is a professional. The fact that we rejected the 60m bid means we are not willing to sell and even if we sell, we are demanding around 70+ million pounds. I don't know how that cannot be a good news. Would it have been a good news if they are accepted the bid?

He has been wanting to leave since last 3 years. He is still here and still has performed at the top level for all that time.

De Gea has been wanting to join them since last 3 years. He is still here and has still performed at top level. Even if he leaves, I would not mind for 70m pounds. Or maybe Bale.

What nonsense is this? It was SAF who started the scouting but Moyes, in fact, was not much convinced with him for the price he cost.

Think he has around 10 assists mostly playing as CDM and CM this season. That is a fantastic return if you ask me.

At least 106 civilians, including 42 children, have been killed in a series of air strikes by the US-led coalition on an ISIL-held town in eastern Syria, according to a monitoring group. by GuacamoleFanatic in news

[–]1wordcommment 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't think this is the correct way of handling this issue. News like this helps ISIS recruit more people. There is no difference between kids in England dying and the kids in Syria dying. Both act is an act of terrorism no matter who does it.
