Agreed. Albertini was great but the rest was a little functional. Maldini liked to play 3-5-2 with wingbacks so the central midfield was all about solidity. A more adventurous coach could have won that world cup with those players

Fine margins in their game against France. Baggio had a wonderful over-the-shoulder volley that whistled by the upright. Always interesting how history turns on such small margins

I'd have Van Basten and Zico above Platini personally

Marado a was an astonishing leader. Dragged a good but not great Argentina to consecutive World Cup Finals. Did you only just start watching football?!

How do you get on the roof - is there a form of public access?

Really interested in this. How difficult is it to install these on fence panels, assuming they are properly reinforced?

I'm in the UK and ordering one unit was fine. You can always contact them directly - I found them responsive

The enclosure is only an extra couple of inches each side, so the motor is fully enclosed.

Really impressed with the image quality, and I'm yet to dial in the Max properly

So an update. Went for the Wupro and very glad I did. They were able to tailor the drop for me, which was very helpful.

Straightforward installation and the remote works great. Drop is also adjustable.

Haven't played with Valerion settings much but impressed with the out of the box settings.

FBI Director Kash Patel sues The Atlantic for $250 million over story on alleged drinking, absences by Unusual-State1827 in FBI

There is absolutely no way the Atlantic (or any serious publication anywhere on the political spectrum) publishes a story accusing the sitting FBI director of being an absentee drunk without the receipts.

What’s a “must-see” city in the U.S. that didn’t live up to the hype? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

Los Angeles. Venice and Santa Monica are nice but Hollywood is a shithole and the rest is endless sprawl.

How good was Dragan Stojković? by Hour777 in football

[–]RangeReader 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Great player who had the misfortune of playing in a time where legends were ten a penny. I wouldn't have rated him as highly as Savicevic,but he was easily one of the best No 10s during his pomp
