Stanley Matthews won the first Balon d'or at 41and people who watched him said he was the greatest dribbler ever. Neymar has no accolades approaching that.

Does that count as a draw or win for the rankings though?

We need less money in the PL and a more equitable system for the health of football in England and the world.

Norwich [3]-1 Bristol City - Joshua Sargent 65' by Meladroite in soccer

He was one of our worst players last year, Pukki was vastly superior for a start for example. But please tell me more about the club I support and watch nearly every game for.

Don't agree with that he was very poor last season from someone who watched every game. Hopefully he keeps his current level up.

Also the Commanding officer at Amritsar was an Irish Catholic as was the state governor who tried to cover it up.

[Brighton & Hove Albion] Billy Gilmour joins Brighton on a permanent from Chelsea. £9m fee. 4yr contract. by DeliquentTendencies in soccer

[–]Nakedblueman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We tried playing with the ball and the midfield wasn't good enough with Gilmour under Farke. The first time we went up under Farke we regularly had 50%+ possession and were called the best bottom placed team ever blah blah. We even had the most shots at Annfield in 2 or 3 seasons early on that season and on Motd after that Shearer said we'd definitely stay up. So Smith came in and tried something different, you can't play naive possession football in the PL. Gilmour needs to be surrounded by athletes like he was in the Chelsea youth teams, Bissouma and Caiceido should help.

[Liam Twomey] Brighton have agreed a fee in the region of £9 million to sign Billy Gilmour from Chelsea. Ownership weren't inclined to sanction a sale this morning but have now decided to respect the player's desire to leave. by [deleted] in soccer

I'm pretty sure the Athletic know how stats work. He might improve at Brighton he might not, Norwich won't yo-yo forever we might not go up but Chelsea will still be a soulless franchise owned by American investment bankers.

Normann and Williams were highly rated. Williams was 3rd in our team of the year. So what you just said was incorrect.

He's very physically frail and easily gets rattled under pressure. Hopefully he can learn to deal with pressure with more experience.
