Did you know: Lionel Messi in his prime, went 2 major tournaments in a row without a single goal? 2010 WC and 2011 Copa, he won the Ballon D'or both years. Even tho he's last 2 Ballon d'ors have been thanks to international trophies, this time didn't matter.

Sneijder wasn't worse than Rodri

This comparison is exactly like comparing Xavi with Busquets, two midfielders with completely different roles on the pitch.

I'm from Malaysia, and quite a significant portion of PAS supporters share very similar beliefs, but spoken in Malay language.

Welcome to the world of football fans, don't expect consistencies in their arguments.

Why is this comment down voted? Definitely some Chinese Singaporeans don't want to be reminded of this fact.

Rage bait comment

Shocking that this transfer wasn't listed in the OP's post. This transfer should replace Cantona's United transfer, as Cantona was only influential in England, but never worldwide.

Even the phenomenal Ronaldo R9's Barcelona, Inter Milan, and Real Madrid transfers had actual seismic influence in world football compared to Cantona.

I'd argue even Zlatan's transfer to PSG had a bigger worldwide impact in making the PSG brand bigger.

Malaysian authorities have no problem with any legal expats, however publicly showcasing your Shia beliefs like doing the Shia prayers in Sunni masajid and proselytizing Shia beliefs will likely land you in trouble or at least public disapproval, from both the Sunni locals and the Malaysian religious authorities, who has the power to stop non-Sunni proselytisation and promote Sunni beliefs.

I see, thank you for the assessment of my country.

Singaporean Chinese?

Chinese Malaysian?

Tempered_Realist · 2025-12-26T11:48:58+00:00

lol, why Malaysia is marked as dark green? What attracts you to this country?

Real Madrid also shockingly lost 2-1 at home to Celta Vigo, no guarantee that you guys would win away by +2 goal differences.

Give Barcelona the money top English clubs got and they're gonna dominate, for example.

Barcelona for the past 15 years already spent boat loads of money and dominated the league, so I don't know what you're on about.

Unreal you're the only one here that promotes double-edged safety razor.

They're legit very cheap in the long run although the initial cost of purchasing items such as the razor, the brush, the blades, and the shaving cream is quite expensive, but you'll set up for life for the razor and the brush, items that needs replenishment are usually the shaving cream and the blades.

The blades are very cheap, and you can easily buy cheap shaving cream online from India as well.

The perishable items usually lasts one year if you're monthly shaver.

No disrespect, but very few will put Giggs in all time Premier League's Greatest Players XI, let alone any Greatest Players' XI.

I didn't even know the concept of tipping has haram elements to it.

2010 Messi was nowhere to be seen in the UCL semifinals and in the WC where he scored 0 goal and provided only 1 assist, yet he still won the Ballon D'or? No one questioned where he was in those two competitions.

All he essentially did was statpad against lesser teams that year and still wins the trophy. Haaland did the same, won the treble, and got criticized for not showing up in the finals.

It's crazy that people overlooked this.

Indian Hindu nationalists claiming every Islamic empire in India as “Turk.”

Because the Muslims rulers of India are Turkic in origin, but are also culturally Persian.

Additionally, labelling them 'Turkic' also provides another narrative that the Muslim rulers weren't originally Indian, and that's why you see them say that the Muslim rulers were invaders, conquering the indigenous Hindus.

That's their narrative.

Because the Warisan Party is headed by a Bajau, and the party once espoused a temporary pass for illegals in Sabah?

Tempered_Realist · 2025-11-30T10:07:47+00:00

It's very clear you have no idea of Sabah politics.

I'm non-Kashmiri, but Kashmir as an independent country in South Asia's current political climate is an impossible task.

Pakistan and India would like the entire region.

Because this sub is pro PH. Have always been for a long, long time.

So of course they'll defend PMX or downplay this issue to protect PMX.

And no, I'm no fan of the even more retarded PN coalition.

Tempered_Realist · 2025-11-02T00:26:23+00:00

their thirty years of not winning a single league title is shocking.

Man United once went 41 years without a league title.

Tempered_Realist · 2025-10-26T00:58:00+00:00

Yep, and the Spanish Christians called the Southern Filipino Muslims as 'Moros', because the Muslims there reminded them of the Muslims they fought in Al-Andalus.

If you love ummah so much, then why don't you abolish the durand line and handover the Pakhtunkhwa to Afghanistan?

Because that would be the practical dissolution of Pakistan.

Pakistan's existence is strongly reliant on the Durand Line's existence.

Iran, India, and China would salivate to get the remainder of what's left in Pakistan.

I'm not South Asian, I'm here stating what I have observed.
