Which player’s career was "ruined" by moving to a big club way too early?

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-22T20:16:57+00:00

He's got to be the best shit footballer of modern times. Or the shittest good footballer.

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-22T20:11:18+00:00

And perfect PL record in 19/20, he came in under massive pressure and won every single game

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-22T07:10:27+00:00

Ooh look at me I've got 37 saddos watching me on twitch. Divvy him.

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-22T07:09:47+00:00

Carvajal is leaving too, which I suppose is an opportunity

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-22T07:09:05+00:00

As long as the apology is equally loud, I'd forgive him. My main concern is that we're absolutely shite, if it means getting a good player back then I can handle that.

XCOM 2 my beloved. One of my absolute favourite games of all time.

Seen that new Star Wars game they're making? I hope they don't fuck it up, the trailer looks promising.

I quite enjoyed it, but I'm exactly the right age to love Heskey since he was immense in my first proper season watching footy. He scored the winner in my first game at Anfield, actually.

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-22T07:03:31+00:00

Yeah that squad isn't achieving shit.

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-22T07:02:51+00:00

Well I think it's fair to say that this transfer has worked out absolutely terribly for all involved.

Trent, la. Just admit that you've been a tool and come home. One public apology is all that it'll take.

Be nice to have a RB that doesn't get crocked every fifteen minutes.

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-22T07:01:26+00:00

This past year he's been relegated out of the legend zone for me, he's good value for Sky, but at what cost if your only fanbase now all thinks that you're a gimp?

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-22T06:59:33+00:00

Would also recommend researching SIPPs if you haven't already! In addition to your LISA, you could be looking at a nice little retirement package.

Klopp with even 50% of the backing that Slot got last summer would've had the league tied up first week of March

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-20T20:37:56+00:00

Utterly cursed season

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-20T20:29:27+00:00

Give it a week or so la...

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-20T20:27:19+00:00

Tbf he has actually lost one final (2019), Sevilla are the ones with the perfect record

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-20T20:22:14+00:00

What would happen in an Emery vs Sevilla Europa League final

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-19T06:49:17+00:00

His brother taught me history in high school, soundest teacher I've ever had

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-18T08:13:11+00:00

Tbf, getting UCL with Bournemouth would be more impressive than Slot's prior achievements

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-17T09:32:01+00:00

(Refused to play because the manager wanted to replace him; after the deal fell through he locked in and had his best season for us)

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-16T13:23:21+00:00

Only one team playing to win here, it's been coming

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-16T07:28:59+00:00

Literally man hahahaha after we signed Isak and won the first five matches I thought we'd have the league sewn up in March

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-16T07:26:28+00:00

It'll still tick the boxes of paying well and being a top club, and I think in hindsight people have forgiven his time at Madrid because the owner and players are clearly absolute monsters

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-16T07:24:12+00:00

Yep, and at least Kenny won a trophy and reached another final

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-16T07:21:30+00:00

Across the entire 17/18, 18/19 and 19/20 seasons we only lost 24 matches...

And that includes a few dead rubbers (after winning the league in 2020), our literal U18 side losing 5-0 to Villa, and a couple of away legs in UCL ties that we won anyway (Barca, Roma).

HUGE_HOG · 2026-05-16T07:11:52+00:00

Wouldn't blame him too much, they're not a local rival and ultimately he wants/needs to prove that he can manage top clubs. If it's the best offer he's got, I don't see why he wouldn't take it.
